determined by the REN, you should
contact your local telephone company.

equipment to the premises wiring and

applicable FCC Part 68 rules and
requirements adopted by the ACTA. A
compliant telephone cord and modular

designed to be connected to a compatible
modular jack that is also compliant. See
installation instructions for details.
