Information for European Users (SX-500)

The server and its built-in 802.11b, and 802.11g wireless technology is in compliance with the Class B Information Technology Equipment requirements and other relevant provisions of European Directive 1999/5/EC. The limits for Class B equipment were derived for typical residential environments to provide reasonable protection against interference with licensed communications devices. The internal function is a radio device using the 2.4 GHz frequency band (2.400GHz - 2.4845 GHz). It is intended for wireless communication with other 802.11b, and 802.11g-enabled devices in an indoor environment.

The use of 802.11b and 802.11g wireless technology in certain countries may be restricted. Before using 802.11x products, please confirm with the frequency management authority in the country where you plan to use it. Many countries allow indoor use only. In Italy, general authorization is required if used outside. In France, the use of certain channels is restricted outdoors. In some situations or environments, the use of 802.11x wireless technology might be restricted by the proprietor of the building or responsible representatives of the organization, for example, in airplanes, in hospitals or in any other environment where the risk of interference with other devices or services is perceived or identified as harmful.

If you are uncertain of the policy that applies to the use in a specific organization or environment, you are encouraged to ask for authorization to use 802.11x wireless technology prior to switching it on. Consult your physician or the manufacturer of personal medical devices (pacemakers, hearing aids, etc.) regarding any restrictions on the use of 802.11x wireless technology.

Silex cannot be responsible for any failure to satisfy the protection requirements resulting from a non- recommended modification of the product.
