installed and used according to the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which is found by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

• Increase the separation between the equipment or

devices

• Connect the equipment to an outlet other than the

receiver’s

• Consult a dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician

for assistance

FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.

IEEE 802.11b or 802.11g operation of this product in the
USA is firmware-limited to channels 1 through 11.

Safety Notices

the device.

Industry Canada Radiation Exposure
Statement

This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits
set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment
should be installed and operated with minimum distance
20 cm between the radiator & your body.

This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

The device for the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor
usage to reduce the potential for harmful interference to
co-channel mobile satellite systems.

FCC Radiation Exposure Statement

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure
limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This
equipment should be installed and operated with
minimum distance 20 cm between the radiator and your
body.

This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

Restrictions in the 5 GHz Band

The device for the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor
usage to reduce potential for harmful interference to co­channel mobile satellite systems.

Because high power radars are allocated as primary users
(meaning they have priority) in 5250-5350 MHz and
5650-5850 MHz, these radars could cause interference
and/or damage to licensed exempt LAN devices.

Additional requirements for the band 5600-5650 MHz:
Until further notice, devices subject to this Section
shall not be capable of transmitting in the band 5600­5650 MHz, so that Environment Canada weather radars
operating in this band are protected.

L’utilisation de ce dispositif est autorisée seulement aux
conditions suivantes :

1. il ne doit pas produire de brouillage et

2. il doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique reçu,
même si ce brouillage est susceptible de compromettre
le fonctionnement du dispositif.

Avis d’Industrie Canada concernant
l’exposition aux radiofréquences

Ce matériel est conforme aux limites établies par IC
en matière d’exposition aux radiofréquences dans un
environnement non contrôlé. Ce matériel doit être installé

L’appareil pour la bande de 5150 à 5250 MHz est conçu
pour usage à l’intérieur seulement afin de réduire le
potentiel d’interférences pour les systèmes mobiles par
satellite qui utilisent le même canal.

Du fait que les radars haute puissance ont la priorité
dans les bandes 5250-5350 MHz et 5650-5850 MHz, ils
pourraient causer des interférences ou endommager les
périphériques réseau sans fil.

Autres restrictions pour la bande 5 600-5 650 MHz : sauf
avis contraire, les périphériques concernés par cette
section ne doivent pas être capables de transmettre dans
la bande 5 600-5 650 MHz afin de protéger les radars
d’Environnement Canada qui l’utilisent.

Wireless Disclaimer

The maximum performance for wireless is derived from
IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. Actual performance

data throughput rate, range and coverage. Performance
depends on many factors, conditions and variables,
including distance from the access point, volume of
network traffic, building materials and construction,
operating system used, mix of wireless products used,
interference and other adverse conditions.

Avis de non-responsabilité concernant
les appareils sans fil

Les performances réelles peuvent varier, notamment
en fonction de la capacité du réseau sans fil, du débit
de la transmission de données, de la portée et de la
couverture. Les performances dépendent de facteurs,
conditions et variables multiples, en particulier de la
distance par rapport au point d’accès, du volume du trafic
réseau, des matériaux utilisés dans le bâtiment et du
type de construction, du système d’exploitation et de la
combinaison de produits sans fil utilisés, des interférences
et de toute autre condition défavorable.
