modular jack that is also compliant. See installation instructions for detail.
4. 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. The REN for this product is part of the product identifier that has the
format US:AAAEQ##TXXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a
decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3).
