Electromagnetic Compliance
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) requirements have been established in many countries to regulate the radio frequency energy generated by Information Technology Equipment (ITE). This energy is generated during the normal and intended use of this equipment and so it is limited by country regulations to levels intended to minimize potential interference to other electrical equipment, including public safety services.
Two levels of radio frequency energy are allowed according to the type or use of equipment. Class A levels have been established for use in commercial or business environments. Class B levels are lower than the Class A requirement and have been established for use in residential environments. Class B levels are also suitable when the environment includes electrically sensitive equipment.
The fibre loop switch that you have purchased has been provided with compliance labels to indicate where it may be used with reasonable protection to the environment in which it is used. Additional statements are provided below as required by the requirements of international and domestic regulations.
Wire connections to GBICs installed in this product must be made with shielded cables with metallic RFI/EMI connector hoods in order to maintain compliance with FCC rules and regulations.
Note: Check the label on your product to determine the level of operation.
