Wireless Interoperability

The Atheros AR5006EG Wireless Network Adapter products are designed to be interoperable with any wireless
LAN product that is based on Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) /Orthogonal Frequency Division
Multiplexing(OFDM) radio technology, and is compliant to:

■

The IEEE 802.11 Standard on Wireless LANs(Revision B/G), as defined and approved by the Institute of

Electrical and Electronics Engineers.

■

The Wireless Fidelity(Wi-Fi) certification as defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance.
a certification mark of the Wi-Fi Alliance.

The “Wi-Fi CERTIFIED” logo is

CAUTION

Bluetooth™ and WirelessLAN devices operate within the same radio frequency range and may interfere with
one another. If you use Bluetooth™ and WirelessLAN devices simultaneously, you may occasionally experience
a less than optimal network performance or even lose your network connection.
If you should experience any such problem, immediately turn off either one of your Bluetooth™ or
WirelessLAN.
Please contact Toshiba PC product support on web site

Wireless LAN and your Health

Wireless LAN products, like other radio devices, emit radio frequency electromagnetic energy. The level of
energy emitted by Wireless LAN devices however is far much less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by

wireless devices like for example mobile phones.
Because Wireless LAN products operate within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and
recommendations, TOSHIBA believes Wireless LAN is safe for use by consumers. These standards and
recommendations reflect the consensus of the scientific community and result from deliberations of panels and
committees of scientists who continually review and interpret the extensive research literature.
In some situations or environments, the use of Wireless LAN may be restricted by the proprietor of the building
or responsible representatives of the organization. These situations may for example include:

■

Using the Wireless LAN equipment on board of airplanes, or

■

In any other environment where the risk of interference to other devices or services is perceived or

identified as harmful.
If you are uncertain of the policy that applies on the use of wireless devices in a specific organization or
environment (e.g. airports), you are encouraged to ask for authorization to use the Wireless LAN device prior to
turning on the equipment.

Regulatory Information

The Atheros AR5006EG Wireless Network Adapter must be installed and used in strict accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions as described in the user documentation that comes with the product. This device
complies with the following radio frequency and safety standards.

Canada – Industry Canada (IC)

This device complies with RSS 210 of Industry Canada.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of this device.”
L ‘ utilisation de ce dispositif est autorisée seulement aux conditions suivantes : (1) il ne doit pas produire de
brouillage et (2) l’ utilisateur du dispositif doit étre prêt à accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique reçu, même si
ce brouillage est susceptible de compromettre le fonctionnement du dispositif.
The term "IC" before the equipment certification number only signifies that the Industry Canada technical

specifications were met.

To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the
equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that required for successful communication.
To prevent radio interference to the licensed service, 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.

Pour empecher que cet appareil cause du brouillage au service faisant l'objet d'une licence, il doit etre utilize a
l'interieur et devrait etre place loin des fenetres afin de Fournier un ecram de blindage maximal. Si le matriel
(ou son antenne d'emission) est installe a l'exterieur, il doit faire l'objet d'une licence.

For private usage outside buildings across public grounds over less than 300m no special registration with
IBPT/BIPT is required. Registration to IBPT/BIPT is required for private usage outside buildings across public
grounds over more than 300m. For registration and license please contact IBPT/BIPT.
Voor privé-gebruik buiten gebouw over publieke groud over afstand kleiner dan 300m geen registratie bij BIPT/IBPT
nodig; voor gebruik over afstand groter dan 300m is wel registratie bij BIPT/IBPT nodig. Voor registratie of licentie
kunt u contact opnemen met BIPT.
Dans le cas d’une utilisation privée, à l’extérieur d’un bâtiment, au-dessus d’un espace public, aucun enregistrement
n’est nécessaire pour une distance de moins de 300m. Pour une distance supérieure à 300m un enregistrement
auprès de I’IBPT est requise. Pour les enregistrements et licences, veuillez contacter I’IBPT.
License required for outdoor installations. Check with reseller for procedure to follow Deutschland:
Anmeldung im Outdoor-Bereich notwendig, aber nicht genehmigungspflichtig.Bitte mit Händler die Vorgehensweise
abstimmen.
Restricted frequency band: only channels 1 to 7 (2400 MHz and 2454 MHz respectively) may be used outdoors in

License required for indoor use. Use with outdoor installations not allowed. Italia:
E’necessaria la concessione ministeriale anche per l’uso interno.
Verificare con i rivenditori la procedura da seguire.
License required for outdoor installations. Check with reseller for procedure to follow. Nederland
Licentie verplicht voor gebruik met buitenantennes. Neem contact op met verkoper voor juiste procedure.

To remain in conformance with European spectrum usage laws for Wireless LAN operation, the above 2.4GHz channel

limitations apply for outdoor usage. The user should use the wireless LAN utility to check the current channel of operation.

If operation is occurring outside of the allowable frequencies for outdoor use, as listed above, the user must contact the

applicable national spectrum regulator to request a license for outdoor operation.
