  • These devices are intended for connection to single line telephone or key systems only. They are not intended for use on "party line" or on coin operated telephone lines.
  • When installed in accordance with these instructions, the devices can be readily disconnected without affecting equipment remaining on the telephone network.

Important Telephone Information

The following information may be required by the telephone company: Telephone Number, FCC Registration Number: 3Z9USA-21250-RG-N, Ringer Equivalence Number (REN): 1.5B at greater then 50 Volts and 3.4B at less than 50 Volts.

The REN allows the installer to determine the number of devices that can be added to the telephone line and still have all the devices ring when the number is called. In most, but not all, areas, the sum of all RENs for all devices

connected to your line should not exceed five. To be sure of the number of devices you can connect to your telephone line, contact your local telephone company.

If these devices damage the telephone network, the telephone company will notify the owner that it may temporarily disconnect service if they consider such action necessary. If the owner considers the disconnection unwarranted, they have the right to bring a complaint to the FCC

The telephone company may make changes in its communication facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures when such action is required. If these changes render the devices incompatible with the telephone company facilities, the telephone company will provide enough written notice so that necessary changes can be made in order to maintain uninterrupted service.
