Safety information
Follow the guidelines in this section to ensure proper operation and safe use of the client adapter.
FCC Safety Compliance Statement
The FCC, with its action in ET Docket 96-8, has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to RF
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC-certified equipment. When used with approved Cisco Aironet
antennas, Cisco Aironet products meet the uncontrolled environmental limits found in OET-65 and
ANSI C95.1, 1991. Proper operation of this radio device according to the instructions in this publication
will result in user exposure substantially below the FCC recommended limits.
Safety Guidelines
• Do not touch or move the antenna while the unit is transmitting or receiving.
• Do not hold any component containing a radio such that the antenna is very close to or touching any
exposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting.
• Do not operate the radio or attempt to transmit data unless the antenna is connected; otherwise, the
radio may be damaged.
• High-gain, wall-mount, or mast-mount antennas are designed to be professionally installed and
should be located at a minimum distance of 12 inches (30 cm) or more from the body of all persons.
Please contact your professional installer, VAR, or antenna manufacturer for proper installation
requirements.
• Use in specific environments:
–
The use of wireless devices in hazardous locations is limited to the constraints posed by the
safety directors of such environments.
–
The use of wireless devices on airplanes is governed by the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA).
–
The use of wireless devices in hospitals is restricted to the limits set forth by each hospital.
