antennas. Use of such antennas with these products is illegal.
Use On Aircraft Caution
Caution: Regulations of the FCC and FAA prohibit airborne operation of radio-frequency wireless devices
because their signals could interfere with critical aircraft instruments.
Other Wireless Devices
Safety Notices for Other Devices in the Wireless Network: Refer to the documentation supplied with
wireless Ethernet adapters or other devices in the wireless network.
Local Restrictions on 802.11a and 802.11b Radio Usage
Caution: Due to the fact that the frequencies used by 802.11a and 802.11b wireless LAN devices may not
yet be harmonized in all countries, 802.11a and 802.11b 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(R) PROSet/Wireless
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.
For country-specific information, see the additional compliance information supplied with the product.
Wireless interoperability
The Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection 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. 802.1b-1999. Standard on Wireless LAN.
● Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) certification, as defined by the WECA (Wireless Ethernet Compatibility Alliance).
The Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection adapter and your health
The Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection adapter, like other radio devices, emits radio
frequency electromagnetic energy. The level of energy emitted by this device, however, is less than the
electromagnetic energy emitted by other wireless devices such as mobile phones. The Intel(R) PRO/Wireless
2915ABG Network Connection adapter wireless device 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 Intel(R)
