Federal Communications Commission Statement

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the

following two conditions:

• This device may not cause harmful interference, and

• This device must accept any interference received including interference that

may cause undesired operation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a

Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are

designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a

residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio

frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with manufacturer’s

instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,

there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If

this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,

which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is

encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following

measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the

receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

The use of shielded cables for connection of the monitor to the graphics card is

required to assure compliance with FCC regulations. Changes or modications

to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance

could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.

FCC Radio Frequency (RF) Exposure Caution Statement

Any changes or modications not expressly approved by the party responsible

for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment. “The

manufacture declares that this device is limited to Channels 1 through 11 in the

2.4GHz frequency by specied rmware controlled in the USA.”

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an

uncontrolled environment. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure

compliance requirements, please avoid direct contact to the transmitting antenna

during transmitting. End users must follow the specic operating instructions for

satisfying RF exposure compliance.

RF exposure warning

This equipment must be installed and operated in accordance with provided

instructions and the antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to

provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not

be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

End-users and installers must be provide with antenna installation instructions and

transmitter operating conditions for satisfying RF exposure compliance.

Declaration of Conformity (R&TTE directive 1999/5/EC)

The following items were completed and are considered relevant and sufcient:

• Essential requirements as in [Article 3]

• Protection requirements for health and safety as in [Article 3.1a]

• Testing for electric safety according to [EN 60950]

• Protection requirements for electromagnetic compatibility in [Article 3.1b]

• Testing for electromagnetic compatibility in [EN 301 489-1] & [EN 301 489-17]

• Effective use of the radio spectrum as in [Article 3.2]

• Radio test suites according to [EN 300 328-2]

CE Marking

CE marking for devices without wireless LAN/Bluetooth

The shipped version of this device complies with the requirements of the EEC

directives 2004/108/EC “Electromagnetic compatibility” and 2006/95/EC “Low

voltage directive”.

CE marking for devices with wireless LAN/ Bluetooth

Wireless Operation Channel for Different Domains

N. America 2.412-2.462 GHz Ch01 through CH11

Japan 2.412-2.484 GHz Ch01 through Ch14

Europe ETSI 2.412-2.472 GHz Ch01 through Ch13

France Restricted Wireless Frequency Bands

Some areas of France have a restricted frequency band. The worst case maximum

authorized power indoors are:

• 10mW for the entire 2.4 GHz band (2400 MHz–2483.5 MHz)

• 100mW for frequencies between 2446.5 MHz and 2483.5 MHz

Channels 10 through 13 inclusive operate in the band 2446.6 MHz to 2483.5

MHz.

There are few possibilities for outdoor use: On private property or on the private

property of public persons, use is subject to a preliminary authorization procedure

by the Ministry of Defense, with maximum authorized power of 100mW in the

2446.5–2483.5 MHz band. Use outdoors on public property is not permitted.

In the departments listed below, for the entire 2.4 GHz band:

• Maximum authorized power indoors is 100mW

• Maximum authorized power outdoors is 10mW

Departments in which the use of the 2400–2483.5 MHz band is permitted with an

EIRP of less than 100mW indoors and less than 10mW outdoors:

01 Ain 02 Aisne 03 Allier 05 Hautes Alpes

08 Ardennes 09 Ariège 11 Aude 12 Aveyron

16 Charente 24 Dordogne 25 Doubs 26 Drôme

32 Gers 36 Indre 37 Indre et Loire 41 Loir et Cher

45 Loiret 50 Manche 55 Meuse 58 Nièvre

59 Nord 60 Oise 61 Orne 63 Puy du Dôme

64 Pyrénées Atlantique 66 Pyrénées Orientales

67 Bas Rhin 68 Haut Rhin 70 Haute Saône 71 Saône et Loire

75 Paris 82 Tarn et Garonne 84 Vaucluse

88 Vosges 89 Yonne 90 Territoire de Belfort

94 Val de Marne

This requirement is likely to change over time, allowing you to use your wireless

LAN card in more areas within France. Please check with ART for the latest

information (www.arcep.fr)

Your WLAN Card transmits less than 100mW, but more than 10mW.

Canadian Department of Communications Statement

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions

from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the

Canadian Department of Communications.

This class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.

Cet appareil numérique de la classe [B] est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du

Canada.

IC Radiation Exposure Statement for Canada

This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an

uncontrolled environment. To maintain compliance with IC RF exposure

compliance requirements, please avoid direct contact to the transmitting antenna

during transmitting. End users must follow the specic operating instructions for

satisfying RF exposure compliance.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

• This device may not cause interference and

• This device must accept any interference, including interference that may

cause undesired operation of the device.

To prevent radio interference to the licensed service (i.e. co-channel Mobile

Satellite systems) this device is intended to be operated indoors and away from

windows to provide maximum shielding. Equipment (or its transmit antenna) that is

installed outdoors is subject to licensing.

The user is cautioned that this device should be used only as specied within

this manual to meet RF exposure requirements. Use of this device in a manner

inconsistent with this manual could lead to excessive RF exposure conditions.

This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operating in conjunction

with any other antenna or transmitter.

Country Code selection feature to be disabled for products marketed to the US/

CANADA.
