Local Restrictions on 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11d, 802.11g, 802.11n, and 802.11ac Radio Usage
Caution: Due to the fact that the frequencies used by 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11d, 802.11g, 802.11n, and
802.11ac wireless LAN devices may not yet be harmonized in all countries, 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11d, 802.11g,
802.11n, and 802.11ac products are designed for use only in specific countries, and are not allowed to be
operated in countries other than those of designated use. As a user of these products, you are responsible for
ensuring that the products are used only in the countries for which they were intended and for verifying that they
are configured with the correct selection of frequency and channel for the country of use. The device transmit
power control (TPC) interface is part of the Intel® PROSet/Wireless WiFi Connection Utility Software. Operational
restrictions for Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) are provided by the system manufacturer. Any deviation
from the permissible power and frequency settings for the country of use is an infringement of national law and
may be punished as such.
Wireless Interoperability
The wireless adapter is designed to be interoperable with other wireless LAN products that are based on direct
sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) radio technology and to comply with the following standards:
IEEE Std. 802.11b compliant Standard on Wireless LAN
IEEE Std. 802.11g compliant Standard on Wireless LAN
IEEE Std. 802.11a compliant Standard on Wireless LAN
IEEE Std. 802.11n compliant Standard on Wireless LAN
IEEE Std. 802.11ac draft compliant on Wireless LAN
Wireless Fidelity certification, as defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance
The Wireless Adapter and Your Health
The wireless adapter, like other radio devices, emits radio frequency electromagnetic energy. The level of energy
emitted by the wireless adapter, however, is less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by other wireless
devices such as mobile phones. The wireless adapter operates within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety
standards and recommendations. These standards and recommendations reflect the consensus of the scientific
community and result from deliberations of panels and committees of scientists who continually review and
interpret the extensive research literature. In some situations or environments, the use of the wireless adapter
may be restricted by the proprietor of the building or responsible representatives of the applicable organization.
Examples of such situations may include:
Using the wireless adapter on board airplanes, or
Using the wireless adapter in any other environment where the risk of interference with other devices or
services is perceived or identified as being harmful.
If you are uncertain of the policy that applies to the use of wireless adapters in a specific organization or
environment (an airport, for example), you are encouraged to ask for authorization to use the adapter before you
turn it on.
REGULATORY INFORMATION
USA - Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
This wireless adapter is restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15 to 5.25 and 5.470 to 5.75GHz
frequency ranges. No configuration controls are provided for Intel® wireless adapters 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.
Intel® wireless adapters are intended for OEM integrators only.
Intel® wireless adapters cannot be co-located with any other transmitter unless approved by the FCC.
This wireless adapter complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation of the device is subject to the following
two conditions:
This device may not cause harmful interference.
