xxii
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant
to Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial
environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the operator's manual, can cause harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case you
will be required to correct the interference, at your own expense.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void your authority to
operate the equipment.
Canadian Department of Communications Industry Canada Notice
(Canada only)
This Class A digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-001.
FCC Part 15 / Industry Canada Information:
This device complies with Part 15 Subpart C and Subpart E of FCC Rules and Industry Canada licence-
exempt RSS-210 standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired
operation of this device.
This product contains transmitter module:
FCC ID: 2AAEX-SDABGN
IC: 7228C-SDABGN
SAR / RF Exposure Notice:
This equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment
and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET-65 and RSS-102 of
the IC (Industry Canada) radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules.
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type
and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio
interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent
isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.
This radio transmitter (identify the device by certification number, or model number if Category II) has
been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum
permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not
included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly
prohibited for use with this device.
For product available in the USA/Canada market, only channels 1-11 can be operated. Selection of other
channels is not possible.
If this device is to be operated in the 5.15~5.25GHz frequency range, it is restricted to indoor
environments only.
