76Notebook PC E-ManualInternal Modem CompliancyThe Notebook PC with internal modem model complies with JATE (Japan), FCC (US, Canada, Korea, Taiwan), and CTR21. The internal modem has been approved in accordance with Council Decision 98/482/EC for pan-European single terminal connection to the public switched telephone network (PSTN). However due to dierences between the individual PSTNs provided in dierent countries, the approval does not, of itself, give an unconditional assurance of successful operation on every PSTN network termination point. In the event of problems you should contact your equipment supplier in the rst instance.OverviewOn 4th August 1998 the European Council Decision regarding the CTR 21 has been published in the Ocial Journal of the EC. The CTR 21 applies to all non voice terminal equipment with DTMF-dialling which is intended to be connected to the analogue PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network).CTR 21 (Common Technical Regulation) for the attachment requirements for connection to the analogue public switched telephone networks of terminal equipment (excluding terminal equipment supporting the voice telephony justied case service) in which network addressing, if provided, is by means of dual tone multi-frequency signalling.
Notebook PC E-Manual77Network Compatibility DeclarationStatement to be made by the manufacturer to the Notied Body and the vendor: “This declaration will indicate the networks with which the equipment is designed to work and any notied networks with which the equipment may have inter-working diculties.”Statement to be made by the manufacturer to the user: “This declaration will indicate the networks with which the equipment is designed to work and any notied networks with which the equipment may have inter-working diculties. The manufacturer shall also associate a statement to make it clear where network compatibility is dependent on physical and software switch settings. It will also advise the user to contact the vendor if it is desired to use the equipment on another network.”Up to now the Notied Body of CETECOM issued several pan-European approvals using CTR 21. The results are Europe’s rst modems which do not require regulatory approvals in each individual European country.Non-Voice EquipmentAnswering machines and loud-speaking telephones can be eligible as well as modems, fax machines, auto-dialers and alarm systems. Equipment in which the end-to-end quality of speech is controlled by regulations (e.g. handset telephones and in some countries also cordless telephones) is excluded.
