www.maxstream.net
.
If the 24XStream modules are incorporated into a product, the manufacturer must ensure
compliance of the final product to the European harmonized EMC and low-voltage/safety
standards. A Declaration of Conformity must be issued for each of these standards and kept on
file as described in Annex II of the R&TTE Directive. Furthermore, the manufacturer must
maintain a copy of the XStream user manual documentation and ensure the final product does
not exceed the specified power ratings, antenna specifications, and/or installation requirements
as specified in the user manual. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by MaxStream
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

drawing must be respected.
• The CE marking must have a height of at least 5mm except where this is not possible on
account of the nature of the apparatus.
• The CE marking must be affixed visibly, legibly, and indelibly.
Furthermore, since the usage of the 2400 – 2483.5 MHz band is not harmonized throughout
Europe, the Restriction sign must be placed to the right of the ‘CE’ marking as shown below. See
