FCC REGULATORY INFORMATION
Please note the following regulatory information related to the
wireless LAN device.
Regulatory Notes and Statements
Wireless LAN, Health and Authorization for use
Radio frequency electromagnetic energy is emitted from Wireless
LAN (WLAN) devices. The energy levels of these emissions,
however, are far much less than the electromagnetic energy emis-
sions from wireless devices such as mobile phones. Wireless LAN
devices are safe for use by consumers because they operate within
the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and
recommendations. The use of Wireless LAN devices may be
restricted in some situations or environments, such as:
■On board an airplane, or
■In an explosive environment, or
■In situations where the interference risk to other devices or ser-
vices is perceived or identified as harmful.
In cases in which the policy regarding use of Wireless LAN devices
in specific environments is not clear (e.g., airports, hospitals,
chemical/oil/gas industrial plants, hospitals, private buildings),
obtain authorization to use these devices prior to operating the
equipment.
Regulatory Information/Disclaimers
Installation and use of this Wireless LAN device must be in strict
accordance with the instructions included in the user documenta-
tion provided with the product. Any changes or modifications
made to this device that are not expressly approved by the manu-
facturer may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or television
interference caused by unauthorized modification of this device,
or the substitution or attachment of connecting cables and equip-
ment other than those specified by the manufacturer. It is the
responsibility of the user to correct any interference caused by
such unauthorized modification, substitution or attachment. The
manufacturer and its authorized resellers or distributors will
assume no liability for any damage or violation of government
regulations arising from failure to comply with these guidelines.
This device must not be co-located or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter.
Federal Communications Commission statement
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This
device may not cause interference, and, (2) This device must
accept any interference, including interference that may cause
undesired operation of this device.
FCC Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy. If not installed and used in accordance with the instruc-
tions, it may cause harmful interference to radio communica-
tions. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or tele-
vision reception, which can be determined by turning the equip-
ment off and on, the user is encouraged to try and correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the distance between the equipment and the
receiver.
3. Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different
from the one the receiver is connected to.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced technician for help.
FCC Radio Frequency Exposure statement
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health
problems are associated with using low power wireless devices.
There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices
are absolutely safe. Low power wireless devices emit low levels of
radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being
used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by
heating tissue), exposure to low-level RF that does not produce
heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many
studies of low-level RF exposure have not found any biological
effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects
might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by addi-
tional research. The wireless LAN radio device has been tested
and found to comply with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth
for an uncontrolled equipment and meets the FCC radio
frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65.
The maximum SAR value measured from the devices are:
■Intel PROSet Wireless LAN (WM4965AGN): <1.59 W/kg
■Intel PROSet Wireless LAN (WM4965AGN) + Bluetooth
Simultaneous: <1.59 W/kg
■Atheros Wireless LAN (AR5BXB6): <1.59 W/kg
■Atheros Wireless LAN (AR5BXB6) + Bluetooth
Simultaneous: <1.59 W/kg
Export restrictions
This product or software contains encryption code which may
not be exported or transferred from the US or Canada without an
approved US Department of Commerce export license. This
device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules., as well as ICES 003 B
/ NMB 003 B. Operation is subject to the following two condi-
tions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
this device must accept any interfere nce received, including inte r-
ference that may cause undesirable operation. Modifications not
expressly authorized by Fujitsu Computer Systems Corporation
may invalidate the user's right to operate this equipment.
Canadian Notice
The device for the 5150-5250 MHz band is only for indoor usage
to reduce the potential for harmfu l interference to co-chann el
mobile satellite systems.
The maximum antenna gain of 6 dBi permitted (for devices in the
5250-5350 MHz, 5470-5725 MHz, and 5725-5825 MHz bands) to
comply with the e.i.r.p. limit as stated in A9.2 of RSS210 .
In addition, users are cautioned to take note that high power
radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority)
of 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and these radars could
cause interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices.
