General Compliance by Design
The Altitude 300-2 wireless port is designed for radio compliance when the associated Extreme
Networks switch is configured with the correct country code.
If the Altitude 300-2 is connected without a pre-programmed country code, such as in the 15706 and
15707 models (Group II), the Extreme Networks switch prompts the user to enter the correct country
code before ports are enabled. As soon as the country code is entered, the switch configures the Altitude
300-2 with the proper frequencies and power outputs intended for that country. This allows a single
Altitude 300-2 to be used in different countries within the same regulatory domain. The end user selects
the country of operation at time of set-up, and all other connected Altitude 300-2 units are automatically
configured for that country’s radio compliance.
The Group I and Japan regulatory domains have dedicated versions of the Altitude 300-2 identified by
their specific regulatory domain (Table 9). These Altitude 300-2 wireless ports have a pre-programmed
country code and do not require the user to enter a country code to set-up the wireless access point.
These units will automatically configure themselves upon connection to the switch after inserting the
RJ-45 Power over Ethernet (PoE) cable. After the first Altitude 300-2 wireless port is connected and
configured by the switch, each additional Wireless port connection inherits the same country code and
operating parameters as the first.
