found in OET Bulletin 65, 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 receiving.
Do not hold any component containing the radio such that the antenna is very close or touching any exposed
parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting.
Do not operate the radio or attempt to transmit data unless the antenna is connected; this behavior may cause
damage to the radio.
Use in specific environments:
The use of wireless adapters in hazardous locations is limited by the constraints posed by the safety
directors of such environments.
The use of electronic devices equipped with wireless adapters on airplanes is governed by rules for each
commercial airline operator.
The use of wireless adapters in hospitals is restricted to the limits set forth by each hospital.
Explosive Device Proximity Warning
Warning: Do not operate a portable transmitter (including this wireless adapter) near unshielded blasting caps
or in an explosive environment unless the transmitter has been modified to be qualified for such use.
Antenna Warnings
Warning: The wireless adapter is not designed for use with high-gain directional antennas.
Use On Aircraft Caution
Caution: Regulations of commercial airline operators may prohibit airborne operation of certain electronic
devices equipped with radio-frequency wireless devices (wireless adapters) because their signals could interfere with
critical aircraft instruments.
Other Wireless Devices
Safety Notices for Other Devices in the Wireless Network: See the documentation supplied with wireless
adapters or other devices in the wireless network.
Local Restrictions on 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, and 802.16e Radio Usage
Caution: Due to the fact that the frequencies used by 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, and 802.16e
wireless LAN devices may not yet be harmonized in all countries, 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, and 802.16e
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 draft 2.0 compliant on Wireless LAN
