(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
Note: This product 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 product 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 product 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 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.
Please take attention that changes or modification not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
This equipment complies with FCC/IC RSS-102 radiation exposure limits set forth for
an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated
with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause
undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux
appareils radioexempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions
suivantes :
(1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et
(2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même
si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter 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.
This equipment complies with FCC/IC RSS-102 radiation exposure limits set forth for
an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated
with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.
ce matériel est conforme aux limites de dose d'exposition aux rayonnements, FCC /
CNR-102 énoncée dans un autre environnement.cette eqipment devrait être installé
et exploité avec distance minimale de 20 entre le radiateur et votre corps.
The user manual for local area network devices shall contain instructions related to
the restrictions mentioned in the above sections, namely that:
(i) the device for operation in the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor use to
reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems;
(ii) the maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the bands 5250-5350 MHz
and 5470-5725 MHz shall comply with the e.i.r.p. limit; and
(iii) the maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the band 5725-5825 MHz
shall comply with the e.i.r.p. limits specified for point-to-point and non
point-to-point operation as appropriate.
(i)Les dispositifs fonctionnant dans la bande 5150-5250 MHz sont réservés
uniquement pour une utilisation à l'intérieur afin de réduire les risques de brouillage
préjudiciable aux systèmes de satellites mobiles utilisant les mêmes canaux.
(ii) le gain d'antenne maximal autorisé pour les appareils dans les bandes 5250-5350
MHz et 5470-5725 MHz doivent respecter le pire limiter; et
(iii) le gain d'antenne maximal autorisé pour les appareils dans la bande 5725-5825
MHz doivent respecter le pire limites spécifiées pour le point-à-point et
l'exploitation non point à point, le cas échéant.
Users should also be advised that high-power radars are allocated as primary users
(i.e. priority users) of the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and that these
radars could cause interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices.
