USA – Electromagnetic
Compatibility Information
System Classes
Please read all of the following information to determine the class of system you
have and the environment in which it should be installed and operated.
In the United States, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) governs the
levels of electromagnetic emissions from a digital device. Electromagnetic emissions
can interfere with radio and television transmission. To reduce the risk of harmful
interference, the FCC has established requirements for manufacturers of digital
devices.
A manufacturer of a digital device must test and label the product to inform an end-
user of the maximum emission level from the product when used in accordance with
its instructions. The FCC has established two classes of levels, Class A and Class B.
A system that meets the FCC Class A requirements may be marketed for use in an
industrial or a commercial area. A system that meets the more stringent FCC Class B
requirements may be marketed for use in a residential area in addition to use in an
industrial or a commercial area.
An end-user in the United States is responsible for ensuring that his system is
suitable for its environment as stated in the above paragraph and bears the financial
responsibility for correcting harmful interference.
For a system to be considered an FCC Class B system, all peripherals of the system
(workstation, monitor, keyboard, mouse, external disk and tape drives, modem,
printer, etc.) must be labeled as such. If any peripheral or the system itself is labeled
as FCC Class A, the entire system becomes FCC Class A and should not be used in a
residential area.

4Sun Fire E2900 Systems Compliance and Safety Manual • March 2004
Modifications
If the end-user adds dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs) or internal drives or
PCI cards to the system, the FCC Class of the machine could be affected. All DIMMs
and internal drives offered by Sun for use in a Sun™ product have been tested and
will not change the FCC Class labeled on the product if it is installed per the
instructions in the Sun product installation guide.
If memory, drives, or PCI cards are purchased from sources other than Sun, the FCC
Class of the system may be adversely affected. Modifications not approved by Sun
may void the authority granted by the FCC to operate the equipment.
Shielded Cables
Connections between the system and other external equipment must be made using
shielded cables, earthed at both ends, in order to maintain compliance with FCC
radio frequency emission limits. System and other external equipment may also be
connected employing fibre optic cable lines if applicable to the port.
FCC Notice
■Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or television technician for help.
Declaration of Conformity

To Ensure Compliance
The following additional components or accessories are required:
1. Shielded cables having earthed metal shells shall be used for connection to all
input/output ports.
2. The system must be reliably connected to earth using the system earth stud.

Renseignements de compatibilité
électromagnetique – Canada
Communications Canada (c’est-à-dire le DOC, Ministère des Communications)
règlemente les dispositifs numériques de façon analogue aux presciptions de la FCC
(Commission fédérale des communications) aux Etats Unis. Chaque produit doit être
étiqueté ou livré avec une documentation spécifiant sa classe. Le DOC définit,
comme le fait la FCC, l’environnement dans lequel un dispositif numérique doit être
utilisé. La classe A, spécifiée par le DOC, s’applique aux zones industrielles ou
commerciales, alors que la classe B s’applique aux zones résidentielles, industrielles
ou commerciales.
Comme il en est le cas avec la FCC, chaque périphérique d’un système doit répondre
aux spécifications de la classe B définie par le DOC afin qu’un système puisse être
considéré comme faisant partie de cette classe. Si un périphérique ou un poste de
travail quelconque appartient à la classe A, le système appartient alors à la classe A
définie par le DOC et par conséquent ne doit pas être mis en service dans une zone
résidentielle.
Au Canada il revient à l’utilisateur de s’assurer que son système est approprié pour
l’environnement auquel il appartient, tel que spécifié dans le paragraphe ci-dessus.
Si des unités internes ou des barrettes de mémoire DIMM sont ajoutées à un poste de
travail, la classe du DOC de la machine risque d’être affectée. Toutes les unités
internes et barrettes de mémoire DIMM offertes par Sun et destinées à être utilisées
sur un poste de travail Sun ont été soumises à des essais. Elles ne changeront pas la
classe du DOC figurant sur le poste de travail si l’installation est conformée aux

8Sun Fire E2900 Systems Compliance and Safety Manual • March 2004
instructions spécifiées dans le Guide d’installation Sun. Si l’utilisateur se procure des
unités et des barrettes de mémoire ailleurs que chez Sun, la classe du poste de travail
définie par le DOC risque d’être défavorablement affectée.
Avis NMB-003, Classe A#
Cet appareil numérique de la classe A est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
Avis NMB-003, Classe B#
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
Electromagnetic Compatibility
Information – Canada
Communications Canada (i.e., the Department of Communications) regulates digital
devices similar to the FCC in the United States. Every product should be labeled or
provided with documentation that states the class of the product. The DOC defines
the environment in which a digital device should be used as the FCC does, DOC
Class A is for an industrial or a commercial area and DOC Class B is for a
residential, an industrial, or a commercial area.
As it is with the FCC, every peripheral of a system must meet DOC Class B levels in
order for a system to be considered DOC Class B. If any peripheral or the system is
DOC Class A, the system is DOC Class A and should not be used in a residential
area.
An end-user in Canada is responsible for ensuring that his system is suitable for its
environment as stated in the above paragraph.
If dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs) or internal drives are added to a system,
the DOC Class of the machine could be affected. All DIMMs and internal drives
offered by Sun for use in a Sun system have been tested and will not change the
DOC Class labeled on the system if installed per the instructions in the Sun
Installation Guide. If memory or drives are purchased from sources other than Sun,
the DOC Class of the system may be adversely affected.
