Appendix A. Wireless related information

Wireless Interoperability

Wireless LAN Mini-PCI Adapter is designed to be interoperable with any
wireless LAN product that is based on Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum
(DSSS) radio technology and/or Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing
(OFDM) radio technology, and is compliant to:
v The IEEE 802.11a/b/g Standard on Wireless LANs, as defined and
approved by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
v The Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) certification as defined by the WECA (Wireless
Ethernet Compatibility Alliance).
Bluetooth Daughter Card is designed to be interoperable with any Bluetooth
product that is compliant to Bluetooth Specification 1.1 as defined by the
Bluetooth SIG. Following profiles are supported by Bluetooth Daughter Card:
v Generic Access
v Service Discovery
v Serial Port
v Dialup Networking
v Personal Area Network
v Generic Object Push
v Printer
v Human Interface Device (Keyboard/Mouse)

Usage environment and your Health

Wireless LAN Mini-PCI Adapter and Bluetooth Daughter Card emit radio
frequency electromagnetic energy like other radio devices. However, the level
of energy emitted is far much less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by
wireless devices like for example mobile phones.
Because Wireless LAN Mini-PCI Adapter and Bluetooth Daughter Card operate
within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and
recommendations, IBM believes the integrated wireless cards are safe for use
by consumers. These standards and recommendations reflect the consensus of
the scientific community and result from deliberations of panels and
committees of scientists who continually review and interpret the extensive
research literature.
