Technical information
How many telephones can I have?
All items of telephone equipment have a Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN), which is used to calculate
the number of items which may be connected to any
one telephone line. Your BT XD56 has a REN of 1.
A total REN of 4 is allowed. If the total REN of 4 is
exceeded, the telephones may not ring. With different
telephone types there is no guarantee of ringing, even
when the REN is less than 4.
Any additional handsets and chargers that you register
have a REN of 0.
