Interference Statement
FCC Part 68
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules. On the bottom of this
equipment is a label that contains the FCC Registration Number and Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. You must provide this
information to the telephone company upon request.
The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices you may connect to
the telephone line and still have all of those devices ring when your number is
called.
In most, but not all areas, the sum of the REN of all devices connected to one
line should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices you
may connect to your line, as determined by the REN, you should contact your
local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area.
If the modem causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company
may discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in
advance.
But if advance notice isn't practical, you will be notified as soon as possible.
You will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment,
operations, or procedures that could affect the proper operation of your
equipment.
If they do, you will be notified in advance to give you an opportunity to
maintain uninterrupted telephone service.
If you experience trouble with this modem, please contact your dealer for
repair/warranty information. The telephone company may ask you to
disconnect this equipment from the network until the problem has been
corrected or you are sure that the equipment is not malfunctioning.

This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone
company. Connection to party lines is subject to state tariffs.
Installation
This device is equipped with a USOC RJ11C connector.
FCC Part 15
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver is connected.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio technician for help.

FCC Caution
This equipment must be installed and operated in accordance with provided
instructions and a minimum 20 cm spacing must be provided between
computer mounted antenna and person’s body (excluding extremities of
hands, wrist and feet) during wireless modes of operation.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the authority to operate equipment.
Federal Communication Commission (FCC) Radiation Exposure
Statement
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. In order to avoid the possibility of exceeding the
FCC radio frequency exposure limits, human proximity to the antenna shall
not be less than 20cm (8 inches) during normal operation.
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
R&TTE Compliance Statement
This equipment complies with all the requirements of DIRECTIVE 1999/5/EC
OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL of March 9, 1999
on radio equipment and telecommunication terminal Equipment and the
