Statement
This equpment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. 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. Operation of this equipment in a residential
area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user
will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
Properly shielded and grounded cables and connectors must be
used in order to meet FCC emission limits. IBM is not responsible
for any radio or television interference caused by using other than
recommended cables and connectors or by unauthorized changes
or modifications to this equipment. Unauthorized changes or
modifications could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Fules. 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.

Hereby, IBM declares that this product is
in complicance with the essential
requirements and other relevent
provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC.
IBM cannot accept responsibility for any failure to satisfy the
protection requirements resulting from a non-recommended
modification of the product, including the fitting of non-IBM option
cards.
This product has been tested and found to comply with the limits for
Class A Information Technology Equipment according to European
standard EN 55022. The limits for Class A equipment were derived
for commercial and industrial environments to provide reasonable
protection against interference with licensed communication
devices.
WARNING
This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio
interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.
Properly shielded and grounded cables and connectors must be
used in order to reduce the potential for causing interference to
radio and TV communications and to other electrical or electronic
equipment. IBM cannot accept responsibility for any interference
caused by using other than recommended cables and connectors.
