Radiation Exposure Statement (FCC)

CAUTION:

The radiated output power of this device is below the FCC radio frequency exposure

limits. Nevertheless, this device should be used in such a manner that the potential for human

contact during normal operation is minimized. This device has been evaluated for and shown

compliant with the FCC RF Exposure limits under mobile exposure conditions (antennas are greater

than 3S0 cm from a person's body). Details of the authorized configurations can be found at

https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/GenericSearch.cfm

the device.

United States of America Authorized Channels

SonicWall declares that the APL45-0D0 (FCC ID: 2AKCZ-0D0) when sold in the USA is limited to CH1-CH11 by

specified firmware controlled in the USA.

CAUTION:

This device is restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15GHz to 5.25GHz

frequency range. The FCC requires this product to be used indoors for the frequency range 5.15GHz

to 5.25GHz to reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel Mobile Satellite systems.

High power radars are allocated as primary users of the 5.25GHz to 5.35GHz and 5.65GHz to 5.85GHz bands. These

radar stations can cause interference with this device or can cause damage to this device, or both.

The APL45-0D0 device has been designed to operate with an internal antenna. Antenna is not user accessible.

Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) is required on all Wireless LAN Master devices (usually Access Points) and

Wireless LAN Clients (usually Wireless NICs) that operate within 5470MHz – 5725MHz. SonicWaves that have these

frequencies and channels enabled in this range comply with North American and International DFS requirements.

Some frequencies are blocked and cannot be selected by the user per each specific regional approval.

Specific to the USA, at the urging of the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) user/installers should avoid

operation frequencies near Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR) systems frequencies 5600-5650 MHz when

installing a SonicWave within 35km of line-of-site of TDWR sites. If TDWR is within 35km the SonicWave,

frequencies should be set to at least 30MHz above or below any TDWR system frequency at that site. TDWR

locations and specific frequencies used can be found at http://spectrumbridge.com/udrs/home.aspx. Detailed
