Cisco 3800 Series Systems comply with FCC Rules, Part 68. On the cover of this equipment is a label containing, among other information, the FCC Part 68 registration number.
The ringer equivalence number (REN) is used to determine the quantity of devices which may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive RENs on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company. The REN assigned to Cisco 3800 series Combo card is 4.0. If requested, this information must be given to the telephone company.
