Chapter 1 Cisco 8500 Series Wireless Controller Installation Guide

Compliance and Safety Information

Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s authorization may result in the equipment no longer

complying with FCC requirements for Class A digital devices. In that event, your right to use the

equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct any interference to

radio or television communications at your own expense.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant

to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful

interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates,

uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the

instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this

equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case users will be

required to correct the interference at their own expense.

Try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Verify that the ambient temperature remains between 50 to 95° F (10 to 35° C), taking into account

the elevated temperatures when installed in a rack or enclosed space.

• When multiple Cisco 8500 Series Wireless Controllers are mounted in an equipment rack, be sure

that the power source is sufficiently rated to safely run all the equipment in the rack.

• Verify the integrity of the electrical ground before installing the controller.
