Radio and television interference

The equipment described in this manual generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed and used properly—that is, in strict accordance with Apple’s instructions—it may cause interference with radio and television reception.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in Part 15 of FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

You can determine whether your computer system is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the computer or one of the peripheral devices.

If your computer system does cause interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:

mTurn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.

mMove the computer to one side or the other of the television or radio.

mMove the computer farther away from the television or radio.

mPlug the computer into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the computer and the television or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)

If necessary, consult an Apple-authorized service provider or Apple. See the service and support information that came with your Apple product. Or, consult an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. You may find the following booklet helpful: Interference Handbook (stock number 004-000-00493-1). This booklet, prepared by the Federal Communications Commission, is available from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402.

IMPORTANT Changes or modifications to this product not authorized by Apple Computer, Inc., could void the FCC Certification and negate your authority to operate the product.

This product was tested for FCC compliance under conditions that included the use of Apple peripheral devices and Apple shielded cables and connectors between system components. It is important that you use Apple peripheral devices and shielded cables and connectors between system components to reduce the possibility of causing interference to radios, television sets, and other electronic devices.

5200CD, 5300CD specifications

The Apple 5300CD, released in 1995, represents a unique chapter in Apple's history, catering specifically to the needs of mobile professionals and educational institutions. This portable Macintosh laptop was notable for its blend of performance, portability, and multimedia features, making it a versatile choice for various users.

At its core, the Apple 5300CD was powered by the PowerPC 603 processor, which operated at a speed of 100 MHz. This architecture was a significant shift for Apple, marking its transition to a more powerful and efficient computing platform. The device typically came with 16 MB of RAM, which was expandable up to 64 MB, allowing users to run applications smoothly, even for the demanding software of the time.

One of the standout features of the 5300CD was its display. It featured a 12.1-inch active-matrix LCD monitor, providing vibrant colors and a resolution of 800x600 pixels. This made it suitable for a range of tasks, from word processing to graphic design. The inclusion of a built-in CD-ROM drive was also a highlight, enabling users to access multimedia content and software directly from CDs, a relatively new and powerful feature at that time.

In terms of connectivity, the Apple 5300CD offered a range of ports, including a serial port, a SCSI port for connecting peripherals, and an ADB port for Apple devices. This ensured compatibility with various accessories, such as printers and external storage solutions. The built-in modem facilitated internet access, allowing users to stay connected in an increasingly digital world.

The laptop's design was another noteworthy aspect. It had a compact and lightweight form factor, making it easy to carry, which was essential for users on the go. The significant battery life of around 3 to 5 hours provided the mobility needed for professionals who relied on their devices throughout the day.

While the Apple 5300CD is often remembered for its distinctive design and robust features, it also faced criticism due to its reliability issues, particularly with its logic board. Nonetheless, the model represented an important step in Apple's evolution, paving the way for future portable computing devices.

In conclusion, the Apple 5300CD was a trailblazer in portable computing during the mid-1990s, featuring a powerful processor, a vibrant display, multimedia capabilities, and a compact design. Its introduction underscored Apple’s commitment to innovation and adaptability in the rapidly evolving technology landscape of the time.
