3.2Physical and Environmental Specifications

The design and implementation of the Serial ATA storage adapters minimizes electromagnetic emissions, susceptibility to radio frequency energy, and the effects of electrostatic discharge. The board carries the CE mark, C-Tick mark, FCC Self-Certification logo, Canadian Compliance Statement, Korean MIC, Taiwan BSMI, and Japan VCCI, and it meets the requirements of CISPR Class B.
