FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement

To comply with the FCC and ANSI C95.1 RF exposure limits, the antenna(s) for this device must comply with the following:

1.Access points with 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz integrated antenna must operate with a sepa- ration distance of at least 20 cm from all persons using the cable provided and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

2.The Access Point's co-located 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz integrated antennas support a minimum separation distance of 10 cm (3.9 in.) and are compliant with the applica- ble FCC RF exposure limit when transmitting simultaneously.

End-users must be provided with specific operations for satisfying RF exposure compli- ance.

Note: Dual antennas used for diversity operation are not considered co-located.

Canadian Department of Communications Industry Canada (IC) Notice

This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003 and RSS-210.

Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003 et CNR-210 du Canada.

"To prevent radio interference to the licensed service, this device is intended to be oper- ated indoors and away from windows to provide maximum shielding. Equipment (or its transmit antenna) that is installed outdoors is subject to licensing."

"Pour empêcher que cet appareil cause du brouillage au service faisant l'objet d'une licence, il doit être utilisé à l'intérieur et devrait être placé loin des fenêtres afin de fournir un écran de blindage maximal. Si le matériel (ou son antenne d'émission) est installé à l'extérieur, il doit faire l'objet d'une licence. "
