premises wiring and telephone network must comply
with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements
adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and
modular plug is provided with the product. It is
designed to be connected to a compatible modular jack

The REN is used to determine the number of devices
that may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive
RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not
ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not
all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five
(5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may
be connected to a line, as determined by the total
RENs, contact the local telephone company. For
products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for the
product is part of the product identifier that has the
format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by
## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a
REN of 0.3).
