CAUTION: This product is restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15- to 5.25-GHz frequency range. The FCC requires this product to be used indoors for the frequency range of 5.15 GHz to 5.25 GHz to reduce the

potential for harmful interference to cochannel mobile satellite systems. High power radar is allocated as the primary user of the 5.25- to 5.35-GHz and 5.65- to 5.85- GHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference with and/or damage to this device.

In some environments, the use of wireless devices may be restricted. Such restrictions may apply in hospitals, near explosives, in hazardous locations, and so on. If you are uncertain of the policy that applies to the use of this product, ask

for authorization to use it before you turn it on.

This Class B digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations. The device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Wireless operation is subject to 2 conditions. The first is that the wireless device may not cause interference. The second is that the wireless device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

CAUTION: This product is restricted to indoor use, due to its operation in the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz frequency range. Industry Canada requires this product to be used indoors for the frequency range of 5.15 GHz to 5.25 GHz to

reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems. High-power radar is allocated as the primary user of the 5.25 to 5.35 GHz and 5.65 to 5.85 GHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference with and/or damage to this device.

The antennas for these devices are not replaceable. Any attempt at user access will damage your devices.
