Compliance
General
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Motorola could void the user’s authority to
operate the system.
NOTE: This system has achieved Type Approval in various countries around the world. This means
that the system has been tested against various local technical regulations and found to comply. The
frequency band in which the system operates is ‘unlicensed’ and the system can be used provided it
does not cause interference. Further, it is not guaranteed protection against interference from other
products and installations.

2
The system has basically been shown to comply with the limits for emitted spurious radiation for a
Class B digital device1, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules in the USA as well as comparable
regulations in other countries. These limits have been 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 or more of the following measures:
•Reorient or relocate the Outdoor Unit (ODU).
•Increase the separation between the equipment and ODU.
•Connect the equipment into a power outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
Consult your installer or supplier for help.
Deployment and Operation
The Radio Regulations of various countries’ limits constrain the operation of radio products generally.
In particular the local regulator may limit the amount of conducted or radiated transmitter power and
may require registration of the radio link.
The power transmitted by the PTP 600 Series Bridge is controlled by the use of Region-specific
License Keys.
The following examples show how the regulatory limits apply in some specific countries at the current
time. Operators should note that regulations are subject to change.
Contact your supplier/installer to ensure that your product is set for the correct License Key for your
Country/Region and to ensure that you have fulfilled all the local regulatory requirements, especially if
you are intending to use a link with external antennas. Footnotes to the table below indicate countries
where registration of the link is currently mandatory.
1Class B Digital Device, A digital device that is marketed for use in a residential environment notwithstanding use in
commercial, business and industrial environments.

Regulations applicable to 5.4GHz PTP 600 Series Bridge variant
Examples of Regulatory Limits at 5.4GHz
Power/Radiated Power/Region Setting
Non-FCC and Non-ETSI2Equipment can be operated in any mode, best
results will be obtained using Region 8 settings
(Region 7 if DFS is required)
FCC
This equipment has not been authorized as
required by the rules of the Federal
Communications Commission. That device is not,
and may not be offered for sale or lease, or sold o
r
leased in the United States, until authorization is
obtained. That device also is not authorized as
required by Canada and may not be offered for sale
or sold in Canada until authorization is obtained.
ETSI Under ETSI Regulations, operation of this product is
only allowed with a License Key for Region 12
(30dBm EIRP with Radar Detection)
General Notice Applicable to Europe
This equipment complies with the essential requirements for the EU
R&E Directive 1999/5/EC.
And
2Note: In regions other than EU/USA, specific local regulations may apply. It is the responsibility of the installer/user to check
that the equipment as deployed meets local regulatory requirements.

Regulations applicable to 5.8GHz PTP 600 Series Bridge variant
Examples of Regulatory Limits
Power/Radiated Power/Region Setting
USA/ Canada/ Taiwan/ Brazil Equipment can be operated in any mode, best
results will be obtained using Region 1 settings
UK3Under UK Regulations, operation of this product is
allowed with a License Key for Region 4 (2W EIRP
with Radar Detection)
Eire4Under Eire Regulations, operation of this product is
only allowed with a License Key for Region 6 (2W
EIRP)
Norway
Norwegian rules allow a 200W EIRP but also
require Radar Detection (DFS) and barring of part
of the band. The license key for Region 7 is
required, although Region 4 could also be used fo
r
lower power requirements.
Australia
A
ustralian laws prohibit use/operation of this
product except where it is used with a License Key
for Region 3 (4W EIRP)
Singapore Under Singapore Regulations, operation of this
product is only allowed with a License Key fo
r
Region 5 (100mW EIRP)
Hong Kong Under Hong Kong Regulations, operation of this
product is only allowed with a License Key fo
r
Region 3 (4W EIRP)
Korea
Under Korean Regulations, operation of this product
is only allowed with a License Key for Region 11
(100mW TX Power, Band restricted to 5725 to
5825MHz)

General Notice Applicable to Europe
This equipment complies with the essential requirements for the EU
R&E Directive 1999/5/EC.
The use of 5.8GHz for Point to Point radio links is not harmonized
across the EU and currently the product may only be deployed in
the UK and Eire (IRL); Norway will be available for deployment from
December 2005.
However, the regulatory situation in Europe is changing and the
radio spectrum may become available in other countries in the nea
r
future. Please contact Motorola for the latest situation.
