FCC Requirement for Operation in the United States of
America:
FCC Guideline for Human Exposure
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 31
cm between the radiator & your body.
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 to correct the interference by one of the following measures:
● Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
● Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
● Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
● Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Caution
● Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
● This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
● It must be Professionally installed.

undesired operation.
Ce dispositif est conforme à la norme CNR-247 d'Industrie Canada applicable aux appareils
radio exempts de licence. Son fonctionnement est sujet aux deux conditions suivantes: (1)
le dispositif ne doit pas produire de brouillage préjudiciable, et (2) ce dispositif doit
accepter tout brouillage reçu, y compris un brouillage susceptible de provoquer un
fonctionnement indésirable.
Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 36
cm between the radiator & your body.
Déclaration d'exposition aux radiations:Cet équipement est conforme aux limites
d'exposition aux rayonnements IC établies pour un environnement non contrôlé. Cet
équipement doit être installé et utilisé avec un minimum de 36 cm de distance entre la
source de rayonnement et votre corps.
IC Caution
This radio transmitter (IC: 22068-AP63 / Model: AP63, AP63E) has been approved by
Innovation, Science, and Economic Development Canada to operate with the antenna
types listed below, with the maximum permissible gain indicated. Antenna types not
included in this list that have a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for any type
listed are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
The maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5470-
5725 MHz shall be such that the equipment still complies with the e.i.r.p. limit.
The maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the band 5725-5850 MHz shall be
such that the equipment still complies with the e.i.r.p. limits specified for point-to-point
and non-point-to-point operation as appropriate.
Avertissement
Le présent émetteur radio (IC: 22068-AP63 / Model: AP63, AP63E) a été approuvé par
Innovation, Sciences et Développement économique Canada pour fonctionner avec les
types d'antenne énumérés ci-dessous et ayant un gain admissible maximal d'antenne. Les
types d'antennes non inclus dans cette liste qui ont un gain supérieur au gain maximal
indiqué pour tout type listé sont strictement interdits pour une utilisation avec cet appareil.
