IC: 1970A-INTERACT
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN): 0.0B(ac)
NOTICE: The term “IC” before the certification/registration number signifies that Industry of
Canada technical specifications were met.
This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective
operational and safety requirements. The Department does not guarantee the equipment will
operate to the user’s satisfaction.
The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to the telephone line.
Excessive RENs on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an
incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be
certain of the number of devices that may be connected to the line, as determined by the total
RENs, contact the telephone company to obtain the maximum RENs for the calling area. The REN
for this product is listed above.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the
facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using
an acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the companies inside wiring associated with
a single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly
(telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above
conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility
designated by ClearOne Communications. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this
equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to
request the user to disconnect the equipment. Users should ensure for their own protection that
the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water
pipe system if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in
rural areas.
