FCC Requirement for Operation in the United States of
America:
FCC Guideline for Human Exposure
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with
minimum distance 35cm between the radiator & your body.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one of the following measures:
● Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
● Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
● Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
● Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

FCC Caution
● Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
● This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
● For operation within 5.15 ~ 5.25GHz / 5.47 ~5.725GHz frequency range, it is
restricted to indoor environment.

Industry Canada
This device complies with RSS-247 of the Industry Canada Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
Ce dispositif est conforme à la norme CNR-247 d'Industrie Canada applicable aux
appareils radio exempts de licence. Son fonctionnement est sujet aux deux
conditions suivantes: (1) le dispositif ne doit pas produire de brouillage préjudiciable,
et (2) ce dispositif doit accepter tout brouillage reçu, y compris un brouillage
susceptible de provoquer un fonctionnement indésirable.

Radiation Exposure Statement:

This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with
minimum distance 44cm between the radiator & your body.
Déclaration d'exposition aux radiations:Cet équipement est conforme aux limites
d'exposition aux rayonnements IC établies pour un environnement non contrôlé. Cet
équipement doit être installé et utilisé avec un minimum de 44 cm de distance entre
la source de rayonnement et votre corps.

IC Caution
(i) The device for operation in the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor use to
reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems;
(ii) The maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the bands 5250-5350 MHz
and 5470-5725 MHz shall be such that the equipment still complies with the e.i.r.p.
limit;
(iii) The maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the band 5725-5850 MHz
shall be such that the equipment still complies with the e.i.r.p. limits specified for
point-to-point and non-point-to-point operation as appropriate; and
(iv) Users should also be advised that high-power radars are allocated as primary
users (i.e. priority users) of the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and that
these radars could cause interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices.

Avertissement
Le guide d’utilisation des dispositifs pour réseaux locaux doit inclure des instructions
précises sur les restrictions susmentionnées, notamment :

(i) les dispositifs fonctionnant dans la bande 5150-5250 MHz sont réservés
uniquement pour une utilisation à l’intérieur afin de réduire les risques de brouillage
préjudiciable aux systèmes de satellites mobiles utilisant les mêmes canaux;

13

(ii) le gain maximal d'antenne permis pour les dispositifs utilisant les bandes de 5250
à 5 350 MHz et de 5470 à 5725 MHz doit être conforme à la limite de la p.i.r.e;

(iii) le gain maximal d'antenne permis (pour les dispositifs utilisant la bande de 5 725
à 5 850 MHz) doit être conforme à la limite de la p.i.r.e. spécifiée pour l'exploitation
point à point et l’exploitation non point à point, selon le cas;

(iv) De plus, les utilisateurs devraient aussi être avisés que les utilisateurs de radars
de haute puissance sont désignés utilisateurs principaux (c.-à-d., qu’ils ont la
priorité) pour les bandes 5250-5350 MHz et 5650-5850 MHz et que ces radars
pourraient causer du brouillage et/ou des dommages aux dispositifs LAN-EL.
