FCC warning statement˖
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: 1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and 2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment 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. This equipment 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 this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try correct the interference by one or more
of the following measures:
- Reorient the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into and outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Any special accessories needed for compliance must be specified in the instruction manual.
You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void your authority to operate the equipment.
The radiated output power of this device is below the FCC radio frequency exposure
limits. Nevertheless, the device should be used in such a manner that the
potential for human contact is minimized during normal operation.
The exposure standard for wireless devices employs a unit of measurement known as
the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/Kg.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC
with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested
frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the
maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power
levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the
closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. To
avoid the possibility of exceeding the FCC radio frequency exposure limits, human
proximity to the antenna should be minimized.
