5.2- Wi-Fi COMMUNICATIONS
5.2.1.- USAGE ENVIRONMENT AND HEALTH
Wireless communications emit radio frequency electromagnetic energy, like other radio devices.
Because wireless communications operate under the guidelines found in radio frequency standards
and recommendations, they are safe for users to use.
In some settings and situations the use of wireless communications may be restricted by the building’s
owner of representatives of the organisation.
These may include:
Use of wireless connections on board aircraft, in hospitals or near service stations, blasting
areas, medical implants or electronic medical devices implanted in the human body (pacemakers, etc.).
In any other setting where the risk of interference with other devices or services is a hazard.
If you are not sure of the applicable usage policy for wireless devices in a specific organisation (airport,
hospital, etc.) we recommend requesting permission to use wireless communications.
5.2.2.- Wi-Fi COMMUNICATIONS
Wi-Fi is one of the most widely-used wireless technologies today, used to connect electronic devices
and exchange information between them without a physical connection.
The line-EDS-Cloud has Wi-Fi communications over the 2.4 GHz band, in accordance with the IEEE
802.11 ac / a / b / g / n standards.
