(4) Limitations on Terminal Equipment Connected to ISDN BRA. If
registered terminal equipment connecting to ISDN BRA services contains
a digital-to-analog converter, or generates signals directly in digital
form, which are intended for eventual conversion into voiceband analog
signals, the encoded analog content of the digital signal must be
limited. The maximum equivalent power of the encoded analog signals,
other than live voice as derived from a zero-level-decoder test
configuration, shall not exceed -12 dBm when averaged over a three
second interval. The maximum equivalent power of encoded analog
signals, as derived by a zero-level decoder test configuration, for
network control signaling, shall not exceed -3 dBm when averaged over
any three-second interval.
