Regulatory Information

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) is any signal or emission, radiated in free space or conducted along power or signal leads, that endangers the functioning of a radio navigation or other safety service or seriously degrades, obstructs, or repeatedly interrupts a licensed radio communications service.

Your Dell computer system is designed to comply with applicable regulations regarding EMI. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Dell could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Dell computer systems are designed, tested, and classified for their intended electromagnetic environment. These electromagnetic environment classifications fall into two groups:

Class A designates a device which may be operated in business or industrial environments only.

Class B designates a device which may be operated in residential settings as well as business or industrial environments.
