The XSP-100 SHARK™ IAD complies with FCC Rules, Part 68. On the underside of this
equipment is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC certification number

2. 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 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.
*NOTE: The SHARK™ IAD can be configured for anywhere from 1 to 24 voice circuits.
References to a telephone line in this paragraph refers to only one of the SHARK™ IAD's
circuits. RENs are associated with loop-start and ground-start ports. It is not used for
E&M and digital ports. Refer to the SHARK™ IAD's hardware specifications for more
