The FCC Wants You to Know

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. 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.
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 can be
determined 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 and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.

• Consult your local RadioShack store or an experienced
radio/TV technician for help.

• If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that
you stop using your hub.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by
RadioShack may cause interference and void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
