20 - Warnings and regulatory information
supplement C, 2001, and ANSI/IEEE C95.1, 1992. Proper operation
of this radio according to the instructions found in this manual will
result in exposure substantially below the FCC’s recommended limits.
• The following safety precautions should be observed:
Do not touch or move antenna while the unit is transmitting
or
rec
eiving.
• Do not hold any component containing the radio such that
the
anten
na is very close or touching any exposed parts of the body
,
espe
cially the face or eyes, while transmitting.
• Do not operate the radio or attempt to transmit dat
a unless the
anten
na is connected; this behavior may caus
e damage to the
radio
.
• The use of wireless adapters in hazardous locations is limite
d by the
constraint
s posed by the safety directors of such environments.
• The use of wireless adapters on airplanes is gover
ned by the
Federa
l Aviation Administration (FAA).
• The use of wireless adapters in hospitals is restricted to the limit

FCC radio frequency interference requirements
This device is restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15
to 5.25 GHz and 5.470 to 5.725 GHz frequency ranges. FCC requires
this product to be used indoors for the frequency ranges 5.15 to
5.25 GHz and 5.470 to 5.725 GHz to reduce the potential for harmful
interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems. High power
radars are allocated as primary users of the 5.25 to 5.35 GHz and
5.65 to 5.85 GHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference
with and /or damage this device. No configuration controls are
provided for this wireless adapter allowing any change in the
frequency of operations outside the FCC grant of authorization for U.S
operation according to Part 15.407 of the FCC rules.
Note
Applies to device supporting IEEE 802.11a wireless adapters.
