Regulatory Information Declaration of Conformity
Federal Communications Commission Radio and Television Interface Statement for a
Class ‘B’ Device
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in the residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation.
If the equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can
be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one of the following measures:
• Incr ease th e separation between the equipment and the affected receiver
• Connect the equipment on a circuit different from the one the receiver is on
• Ensure that the cover plate for the security card is secured and tight
You may find the following booklet, prepared by the Federal Communication Commission,
helpful: How to Identify and Resolve Radio-TV Interference Problems, Stock No. 004-000-0342-4,
U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402.
Changes or modification not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This product was FCC certified under test conditions that included the use of the supplied cable between system components. To be in compliance with FCC regulation,
the user must use this cable and install it properly.
NOTE
According to 47 CFR, Parts 2 and 15 for Class B Personal Computers and Peripherals;
and/or CPU Boards and Power Supplies used with Class B Personal Computers,
Motorola, Inc., 6450 Sequence Drive, San Diego, CA 92121, 1-800-225-9446, declares
under sole responsibility that the product identifies with 47 CFR Part 2 and 15 of the
FCC Rules as a Class B digital device. Each product marketed is identical to the
representative unit tested and founded to be compliant with the standards. Records
maintained continue to reflect the equipment being produced can be expected to be
within the variation accepted, due to quantity production and testing on a statistical
basis as required by 47 CFR 2.909. Operation is subject to the following condition: This
device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation. The above named party is responsible for ensuring that the

Canadian Compliance
This Class B digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian
Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations. Cet appareil numérique de la classe B
respects toutes les exigences du Règlement sur le matériel brouilleur du Canada.
FCC Part 68 Statement
This equipment complies with part 68 of the FCC rules. On the rear panel of this equipment is
a label that contains, among other information, the FCC registration number and ringer
equivalence number (REN) for the equipment. If requested, this information must be provided
to the telephone company.
The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices that may be connected to the telephone
line. Excessive RENs on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to
an incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs should not exceed five (5.0).
To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to the line, as determined by the
total RENs, contact the telephone company to determine the maximum REN for the calling
area.
This equipment uses the following USOC jack: RJC. An FCC-compliant telephone cord and
modular plug is provided with this equipment. This equipment is designed to be connected to
the telephone network or premises wiring using a compatible modular jack that is Part 68
compliant. This equipment cannot be used on telephone company-provided coin services.
Connection to Party Line Service is subject to state tariffs.
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you
in advance that the temporary discontinuance of services may be required. If advance notice
isn’t practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you
will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or
procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens, the telephone
company will provide advance notice in order to maintain uninterrupted service.
If the trouble is causing harm to the telephone system, the telephone company may request
that you remove the equipment from the network until the problem is resolved.
It is recommended that the customer install an AC surge arrestor in the AC outlet to which
this device is connected. This is to avoid damaging the equipment by local lightning strikes and
other electrical surges.
Industry Canada CS-03 Statement
The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the
equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational and safety
requirements as prescribed in the appropriate Terminal Equipment Technical Requirements
document(s). The department does not guarantee that the equipment will operate to the
user’s satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to
the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed
using an acceptable method of connection. The customer should be aware that compliance
with the above conditions might not prevent degradation of service in some situations. Only a
representative designated by the supplier should coordinate repairs to certified equipment.
Repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions may
give the telecommunication company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the
power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are
connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas. Users
should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate
electric inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) of this device is displayed on the product. The REN
assigned to each terminal device provides an indication of the maximum number of terminals
allowed to be connected to a telephone interface. The termination on an interface may
consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the
Ringer Equivalence Numbers of all devices does not exceed 5. The telephone connection
arrangement is a CA11A.

NOTE
It is important to remember not to place anything
on top of the DCT2000 and to provide for
adequate ventilation to prevent overheating.
Before you begin to hookup your DCT2000, review the following:
• For basic cable connections, use 75-ohm coaxial cables equipped with
F-type connector s. Yo u can f i nd co a xi al ca bles in yo ur local ele ctr o ni cs
store.
• For audio or video outputs, use cables equipped with RCA-type
connectors.
• For the optical digital output, use an optical (TOSLINK) audio cable.
• Disconnect power from the DCT2000 before connecting or changing
cable connections.
• Do not place anything on top of the DCT2000, especially other home
video components.
It is recommended that you use RCA cable specifically designed for digital
audio transmission when using the
COAX digital audio output.
