interference that might cause an unwanted impact on their 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 the
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 of the
following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver

• Connect the equipment into 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

FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this
equipment.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.

In compliance with FCC Part 15 regulations, the HiveAP automatically
discontinues transmission if there is no valid information to transmit or if there
is an operational failure.

Important: FCC Regulatory Warning Notices

HiveAP 110, 120, 320, 330, 340, 350 devices are restricted to indoor use due to
their operation in 5 GHz frequencies, which are shared by mobile satellite
systems and government radar systems. The FCC requires that these products
only be used indoors to reduce the potential for harmful interference with
co-channel radar that might be operating in the 5.25-5.35 or 5.47-5.725 GHz
frequency ranges in the same area. The conflicting activity of radar stations
and these devices can cause interference or damage to each other. In
addition, these devices have a radar detection function that might interrupt
normal operations when they detect a radar signal. To reduce the risk of
interference even further, installing these devices away from windows is
recommended.

HiveAP 170 devices operating within the 5.15-5.25 GHz frequency range are
restricted to indoor environments.

The FCC region code is set in the device during the manufacturing process, the
option to set it to any region other than FCC is disabled, and the country code
selection function has been completely removed from all U.S. models. It is
impossible for the end user to change the region to anything other than FCC.

FCC Radiation Exposure Statement

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated
with a minimum distance of 20 centimeters (8 inches) between the radiator
and your body. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

The availability of some specific channel and/or operational frequency bands
are country dependent and are firmware programmed at the factory to match
the intended destination. The firmware setting is not accessible by end user.

Only attach antennas that are certified for use with this device. Replacing
antennas with unauthorized, high-gain antennas greatly increases the risk of
interference and invalidates the FCC certification.

IC Radiation Exposure Statement

Radiation Exposure Statement: This equipment complies with IC radiation

exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment
should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 cm between
the radiator and your body.

The HiveAP 170 has been designed to operate with an antenna having a Dipole
maximum gain of 5 dBi. Antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per
regulations of Industry Canada. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate
using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the
transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to
other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the
equivalent isotropically radiated power (E.I.R.P) is not more than that
necessary for successful communication.

This radio transmitter (IC: 7774A-HIVEAP170 / Model: HiveAP 170) has been
approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below
with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each
antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain
greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited
for use with this device.

Caution: The device for the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor usage to
reduce potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite
systems.

High power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority)
of 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and these radars could cause
interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices.

The band from 5600-5650 MHz will be disabled by the proprietary software
during the manufacturing and which cannot be changed by the end user.

Note: Le terme “IC” précédant le numéro de certification radio signifie que les
spécifications techniques de l’Industrie du Canada ont été respectées.

Les produits indiquant un identifiant d’Industrie du Canada sur leur étiquette
(IC: 7774A-HiveAP170) peuvent être exploités au Canada dans le cadre des
restrictions suivantes:

Ce dispositif est conforme à la norme CNR-210 d'Industrie Canada
applicable aux appareils radio exempts de licence. Son fonctionnement
est sujet aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) le dispositif ne doit pas
produire de brouillage préjudiciable, et (2) ce dispositif doit accepter
