Emissions
Requirements The WANsuite 6450 has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to EN 55022 and Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. This device must also accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
NOTICE: This WANsuite 6450 was tested and found compliant with EN 55022 using the
modular cable (9-1544-619-009) and ferrite core (21-00111) placed on the cable
end nearest the unit. Both of these items are shipped with the WANsuite 6450.
Release the plastic latch on the outside of the core assembly, place around the
cable, and close.
.WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not remove the cover. There are no
user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified personnel.
This unit contains a lithium battery that is not intended to be field-replaceable.
There is risk of explosion if the wrong battery is installed or if the battery is
installed incorrectly.
WARNING: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
Canadian Emissions
Requirements This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions from digital
apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Commu-
nications.
Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites appli-
cables aux appareils numériques (de la class A) prescrites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage
radioélectrique edicté par le ministère des Communications du Canada.
FCC Requirements This equipment has been tested and found to comply with Part 68 of the FCC Rules and the
requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the bottom of this equipment is a label that contains,
among other information, a product identifier in the format US: GICDLNAN6450. If requested,
provide this number to the telephone company.
WARNING: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
1All direct connections to the network lines must be made using standard plugs and jacks that
must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA.
A compliant telephone cord and modular plug are provided with this product. It is designed to
be connected to a compatible modular jack that is also compliant. The table below presents a
list of applicable registration jack USOCs, facility interface codes (FICs), and service order
codes (SOCs). These are required when ordering service from the telephone company.
2If this WANsuite product causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will
notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. However, if

advance notice is not practical, the telephone company will notify you as soon as possible.
Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
3The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or
procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens, the telephone
company will provide advance notice so you can make the modifications necessary to
maintain uninterrupted service.
4Parties responsible for equipment requiring AC power should consider including an advisory
notice in their customer information suggesting the customer use a surge arrestor. Telephone
companies report that electrical surges, typically lightning transients, are very destructive to
customer terminal equipment connected to AC power sources. This has been identified as a
major nationwide problem.
