FCC REQUIREMENTS FOR TELEPHONE-LINE EQUIPMENT
1. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has established rules which permit this device to be
directly connected to the telephone network with standardized jacks. This equipment should not be
used on party lines or coin lines.
2. If this device is malfunctioning, it may also be causing harm to the telephone network; this device
should be disconnected until the source of the problem can be determined and until the repair has
been made. If this is not done, the telephone company may temporarily disconnect service.
3. If you have problems with your telephone equipment after installing this device, disconnect this device
from the line to see if it is causing the problem. If it is, contact your supplier or an authorized agent.
4. The telephone company may make changes in its technical operations and procedures. If any such
changes affect the compatibility or use of this device, the telephone company is required to give
adequate notice of the changes.
5. If the telephone company requests information on what equipment is connected to their lines, inform
them of:
a. The telephone number that this unit is connected to.
b. The ringer equivalence number.
c. The USOC jack required: RJ-11C.
d. The FCC registration number.

CDC STATEMENT
Items (b) and (d) can be found on the unit’s FCC label. The ringer equivalence number (REN) is used
to determine how many devices can be connected to your telephone line. In most areas, the sum of the
RENs of all devices on any one line should not exceed five (5.0). If too many devices are attached, they
may not ring properly.
6. In the event of an equipment malfunction, all repairs should be performed by your supplier or an
authorized agent. It is the responsibility of users requiring service to report the need for service to the
supplier or to an authorized agent.
CERTIFICATION NOTICE FOR EQUIPMENT USED IN CANADA
The Canadian Department of Communications label identifies certified equipment. This certification means
that the equipment meets certain telecommunications-network protective, operation, and safety
requirements. The Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user’s satisfaction.
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 company’s inside wiring associated with a single-line individual service may be
extended by means of a certified connector assembly (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—in this case,
your supplier. 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.

CAUTION:
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric inspection authority,
or electrician, as appropriate.
The LOAD NUMBER (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the total load to be
connected to a telephone loop which is used by the device, to prevent overloading. The termination on a
loop may consist of any combination of devices, subject only to the requirement that the total of the load
numbers of all the devices does not exceed 100.

A user in close proximity to or
touching the computer may feel a
common “shock” sensation,
similar to touching a doorknob
after walking across a carpet,
causing no harm to the user. This
discharge is entirely due to the
computer monitor; the headset is
merely the shortest path to
ground.
• Install static-dissipative
carpets or floor coverings
(anti-static sprays can be
helpful).
8. Maintenance
The foam covers on the receiver
and microphone can be washed in
mild soap and water. Replacement
covers are available from Black
Box. Call 724-746-5500 for details.
• Remove the headset before
turning the computer on or
off.

monitor (CRT). Computer
monitors can induce a substantial
electrostatic charge when turned
