RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENTS

This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate 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 communication. It has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause interference, in which case the user at his own expense will be required to take whatever measures may be necessary to correct the interference.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emission from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulation of Industry Canada.

Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites applicables aux appareils numériques de classe A prescrites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique publié par Industrie Canada.

NOM STATEMENT

12. Precaución debe ser tomada de tal manera que la tierra fisica y la polarización del equipo no sea eliminada.

13. Los cables de la fuente de poder deben ser guiados de tal manera que no sean pisados ni pellizcados por objetos colocados sobre o contra ellos, poniendo particular atención a los contactos y receptáculos donde salen del aparato.

14. El equipo eléctrico debe ser limpiado únicamente de acuerdo a las recomendaciones del fabricante.

15. En caso de existir, una antena externa deberá ser localizada lejos de las lineas de energia.

16. El cable de corriente deberá ser desconectado del cuando el equipo no sea usado por un largo periodo de tiempo.

17. Cuidado debe ser tomado de tal manera que objectos liquidos no sean derramados sobre la cubierta u orificios de ventilación.

18. Servicio por personal calificado deberá ser provisto cuando:

A: El cable de poder o el contacto ha sido dañado; u

B: Objectos han caído o líquido ha sido derramado dentro del

aparato; o

C: El aparato ha sido expuesto a la lluvia; o

D: El aparato parece no operar normalmente o muestra un cambio en

su desempeño; o

CHAPTER 1: Specifications

Compliance — FCC Class A, DOC Class/MDC classe A

Standards — IEEE 802.3, Ethernet Ver. 1 and 2

The Repeater models all have two front-mounted ports. The types of ports on each model determine the types of Interfaces each model supports, the types of Cable Required, the Maximum Distance attainable, and which (if any)

User Controls, Indicators, and Connectors are on each model (see below).

Ports — LE601A-R3: (2) AUI;

LE602A-R3: (2) BNC; LE603A-R5: (1) AUI, (1) Multimode Fiber ST; LE604A-R4: (1) BNC, (1) Multimode Fiber ST; LE605A-R3: (1) AUI, (1) BNC; LE620A: (1) BNC, (1) 10BASE-T; LE622A: (1) AUI, (1) 10BASE-T; LE624A: (2) 10BASE-T; LE626A: (1) 10-BASE-T, (1) Multimode Fiber ST; LE628A: (2) Multimode Fiber ST; LE629A: (1) AUI, (1) Single-Mode Fiber ST; LE630A: (1) BNC, (1) Single-Mode Fiber ST; LE631A: (1) 10BASE-T, (1) Single-Mode Fiber ST; LE632A: (1) Multimode Fiber ST, (1) Single-Mode
