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 a 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
this 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 or more of
the following measures:
— Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
— Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
— Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
— Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.

with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements
adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and
modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed
to be connected to a compatible modular jack that is also
compliant.
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 this 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).
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network,

temporary discontinuance of service may be required.
But 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
