NOTE ON INTERFERENCE IN A
RESIDENTIAL INSTALLATION
This device 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. H840 Media
Device 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
H840 Media Device does cause
harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can
be determined by plugging in,
then unplugging, H840 Media
Device, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference
by reorienting or relocating
the receiving antenna and/
or consulting the dealer or an
experienced radio/TV technician
for help.
H840 Media Device complies
with part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) the
device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference
received, including interference
that may cause undesired
operation.
Changes or modications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance
could void the user’s authority
to operate H840 Media Device
or warranty.
Model. H2G2-42
FCC ID: A4RJ2G2-42
IC: 10395A-H2G242
To satisfy FCC and IC exposure
requirements, a separation
distance of at least 20 cm
should be maintained between
the antenna of this device
and persons during device
12 13
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.
Conformément à la
réglementation d’Industrie
Canada, le présent émetteur
radio peut fonctionner avec
une antenne d’un type et d’un
gain maximal (ou inférieur)
approuvé pour l’émetteur par
Industrie Canada. Dans le but de
réduire les risques de brouillage
radioélectrique à l’intention des
autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir
le type d’antenne et son gain de
sorte que la puissance isotrope
rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.)
ne dépasse pas l’intensité
nécessaire à l’établissement
d’une communication
satisfaisante.
The radiated output power of
the Wireless Device is below the
Industry Canada (IC) radio
frequency exposure limits. The
Wireless Device should be used
in such a manner such that the
potential for human contact
during normal operation is
operation. Operations at closer
than this distance are not
recommended.
The antenna used for this
transmitter must not be co-
located in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
