INTERFERENCE INFORMATION
FCC REGULATIONS PERTAINING TO THIS EQUIPMENT
NOTICE
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules require that you be notified of the following:
FCC Part 15 Information
Some telephone equipment generates and uses radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and
used properly, may cause interference to radio and television reception.
Your AT&T product has been tested and found to meet the standards for a Class B digital
device, as specified in Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These specifications are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. However, there
is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If your AT&T product causes interference to radio or television reception when it is in use, you
might correct the interference with any one or all of these measures:
1. Where it can be done safely, re-orient the receiving television or radio antenna.
2. To the extent possible, relocate the television, radio, or other receiver with respect to the
telephone equipment.
3. If your telephone product runs on AC power, plug your product into an AC outlet that's
not on the same circuit as one used by your radio or television.
If you need assistance, you can call the AT&T Business Customer Service Center at
1-800-628-2888.
FCC Part 68 Registration Information
Your new AT&T product has been registered with the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC). This product complies with standards in Part 68 of the FCC rules. You should be
aware of the following:
1. CONNECTION AND USE WITH THE NATIONWIDE TELEPHONE NETWORK
The FCC requires that you connect your telephone equipment to the nationwide telephone
network through a modular telephone outlet or jack. The modular telephone outlet or
jack to which the telephone must be connected is a USOC RJllC or RJllW.
This equipment may not be used with Party Line Service or with Coin Telephone Lines.
To comply with state tariffs, the telephone company must be given notification prior to
connection. In some states, prior approval of connection must be obtained from the state
Public Utility Commission, Public Service Commission or state Corporation Commission.
2. INFORMATION FOR THE TELEPHONE COMPANY
Upon request of your local telephone company, you are required to provide them with the
following information:
A. The "line" to which you will connect the telephone equipment (that is, your phone
number), and
B. The telephone equipment's FCC registration number and ringer equivalence number.
These numbers are on the back or bottom of your telephone equipment.
The REN is useful to determine how many devices you may connect to your
telephone line and still hear them ring when your telephone line is called. In most,
but not all areas, the sum of all REN's should be 5 or less. You may want to
contact your local telephone company.
