connection to the telephone network
prior to July 23, 2001, it complies with
Part 68 of the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) rules. If the
equipment was approved after that
date, it complies with the Part 68 rules
and with Technical Requirements for
Connection of Equipment to the
Telephone Network adopted by the
Administrative Council for Terminal

1. Product identifier and REN
information
The label on the back or bottom

among other things, an identifier
indicating product approval and
the Ringer Equivalence Number

be provided to your local
telephone company upon
request. For equipment
approved prior to July 23, 2001,
the product identifier is preceded

and the REN is listed separately.
For equipment approved after
that date, the product identifier
is preceded by “US” and a colon
(:), and the REN is encoded in
the product identifier without a
decimal point as the sixth and
seventh characters following the
colon. For example, the product
identifier US:AAAEQ03T123XYZ
would indicate an REN of 0.3.
The REN is used to determine
how many devices you may
connect to your telephone line
and still have them ring when
you are called. In most, but not
all areas, the sum of all RENs
should be five (5.0) or less. You
may want to contact your local

information.
