Compliance Information
Radio and TV Interference
The Model 3196RC generates and uses radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used properly—that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions—may cause interference to radio and television recep- tion. The Model 3196RC has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to provide rea- sonable protection from such interference in a commercial installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If the Model 3196RC causes interference to radio or tele- vision reception, which can be determined by disconnecting the cables, try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: moving the computing equipment away from the receiver, re-orienting the receiving antenna, and/or plugging the receiving equipment into a different AC outlet (such that the comput- ing equipment and receiver are on different branches).
Interference can also be reduced by installing an optional clamp-on ferrite (Patton P/N 0816-13) on the DSL cable, within 12 inches (30 cm) of the DSL connector (see figure 1)
