 FCC and Industry Canada Compliance

FCC and Industry Canada Compliance

This section describes the requirements for compliance with Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Rules and Industry Canada CS-03 standard.

FCC Certification and Requirements

The following paragraphs describe requirements and information based on FCC rules.

Service
If you experience problem with the Siemens optiPoint telephone, contact Siemens cus-
tomer support at 1-800-835-7656 for information on service and repairs. The telephone
company can ask you to disconnect the equipment from the network until the problem is
corrected or until you are sure that the equipment is not malfunctioning.

FCC Rules, Part 15

The Siemens optiPoint telephone has been tested and complied with the limits for a class
A digital device, pursuant to 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 frequen-
cy energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, can
cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a res-
idential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be required
to correct the interference in the user’s expense.

FCC Rules, Part 68

FCC Part 68 Certification
The Siemens optiPoint telephone is certified with FCC under Part 68 as a component de-
vice for connection behind FCC Part 68 certified Siemens PBX systems. In order for the
FCC certification of the Siemens optiPoint telephone to be retained, all other products
used in conjunction with the Siemens optiPoint telephone must also be FCC Part 68 certi-
fied for use with the front-end terminal equipment. If any of these components are not cer-
tified, Siemens is required to obtain FCC Part 68 certification of the assembled equipment
prior to connection to the telephone network. Part 68 certification requires Siemens to
maintain this approval and as such are responsible for the following:
– Any component added to the Siemens optiPoint telephone, whether it bears compo-
nent certification or not, will require a Part 68 compliance evaluation. Siemens may
need to test and make a modification filing to the FCC before that new component
can be used;
– Any modification/update made to the Siemens optiPoint telephone will require a Part
68 compliance evaluation. Siemens may need to test and make a modification filing
to the FCC before that modified component can be used;
– Siemens optiPoint telephone complies with and will continue to comply with all the
applicable rules and regulations in Subpart D of the FCC Part 68 rules during the life-
time of the product.

69
FCC and Industry Canada Compliance

If at any time the ownership of Siemens optiPoint telephone is transferred to someone

else (whether independently or as part of a system), please supply this manual to the new
owner.
1. REN
The ringer equivalence number (REN) is used to determine the quality 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 ar-
eas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). At the base of the telephone is a
label contains, among other information, the REN and the FCC certification number. If
requested, this information must be given to the telephone company. 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.
Note: REN is associated with the analog telephones. It is not applicable to Siemens
optiPoint telephone. If requested, please supply the FCC Certification numbers of the
front-end host terminal equipment that have a direct Public Switched Telephone Net-
work connection (i.e. have a REN stated on the label) and the highest REN.
2. Facility Interface Information
Siemens optiPoint telephone connects to the public switched telephone network
through FCC Part 68 certified front-end host PBX equipment which specifies the type
of network jacks to be used.
3. Disruption of the Network
If the Siemens optiPoint telephone disrupts the telephone network, the telephone
company can discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, the telephone company
will notify you in advance. If advance notice is not practical, they will notify you as soon
as possible. You are also informed of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
4. Telephone Company Facility Changes
The telephone company can make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or
procedures that can affect the operation of your equipment. If they do, you should be
notified in advance so you have an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted telephone ser-
vice.
5. Hearing-Aid Compatibility
Telephones for emergency use and telephones installed in common areas such as lob-
bies, hospital rooms, elevators, and hotel rooms must have handsets that are compat-
ible with magnetically coupled hearing aids. Persons who are not in common areas
must also be provided with hearing-aid compatible handsets, if needed.
The Siemens optiPoint telephone complies with the FCC Rules, Part 68, Section
68.316 Hearing Aid Compatibility and 68.317 volume control requirements.

Equipment Attachment Limitations

The following are notices required by Industry Canada Terminal Attachment Program Cer-
tification Procedure CP-01, Part I, Section 14.

Ringer Equivalence Number (REN)

The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) assigned to each terminal device provides an indi-
cation of the maximum number of terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone inter-
face. The termination on an interface may consist of any combination of devices subject
only to the requirement that the sum of the Ringer Equivalence Numbers of all the devices
does not exceed 5. The REN is associated with the analog loop-start and ground-start tele-
phones. It is not applicable to Siemens optiPoint telephones.

Equipment Attachment Limitations

The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the
equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational and safety
requirements as prescribed in the appropriate Terminal Equipment Technical Requirement
documents. The Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user’s
satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected
to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be in-
stalled using an acceptable method of connection. The customer should be aware that
compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some sit-
uations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be coordinated by a representative designated by
the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment
malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to dis-
connect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the
power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are con-
nected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.

DANGER
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should con-
tact the appropriate electric inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
