Declaration of Conformity for RF Exposure
This section contains information on compliance with guidelines related to RF exposure.
Generic Discussion on RF Exposure
The Cisco products are designed to comply with the following national and international standards on Human Exposure
to Radio Frequencies:

US 47 Code of Federal Regulations Part 2 Subpart J

American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers / IEEE C 95.1 (99)

International Commission on Non Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 98

Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits on Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Fields in the range from
3kHz to 300 GHz

Australia Radiation Protection Standard
To ensure compliance with various national and international Electromagnetic Field (EMF) standards, the system should
only be operated with Cisco approved antennas and accessories.
This Device Meets International Guidelines for Exposure to Radio Waves
The 9117AX series device includes a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure
to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) recommended by international guidelines. The guidelines were
developed by an independent scientific organization (ICNIRP) and include a substantial safety margin designed to ensure
the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
As such the systems are designed to be operated as to avoid contact with the antennas by the end user. It is
recommended to set the system in a location where the antennas can remain at least a minimum distance as specified
from the user in accordance to the regulatory guidelines which are designed to reduce the overall exposure of the user
or operator.

The World Health Organization has stated that present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special
precautions for the use of wireless devices. They recommend that if you are interested in further reducing your exposure
then you can easily do so by reorienting antennas away from the user or placing he antennas at a greater separation
distance then recommended.
