FEDERAL COMMUNICATION COMMISSION INTERFERENCE STATEMENT
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 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 the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. 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.
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.
For product available in the USA/Canada market, only channel 1~11 can be operated. Selection of other channels is not possible.
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operation in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
This device is going to be operated in 5.15~5.25GHz frequency range, it is restricted in indoor environment only.

IMPORTANT NOTE: 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 & your body.
IC STATEMENT :
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
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 the device.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B conforme á la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p) is not more than that permitted for successful communication.
This device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below, and having a maximum gain of 5 dB. Antennas not included in this list or having a gain greater than 5 dB are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
The device could automatically discontinue transmission in case of absence of information to transmit, or operational failure. Note that this is not intended to prohibit transmission of control or signaling information or the use of repetitive codes where required by the technology.
The device for the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor usage to reduce potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems.
The maximum antenna gain permitted (for devices in the band 5725-5825 MHz) to comply with the e.i.r.p. limits specified for point-to-point and non point-to-point operation as appropriate, as stated in section A9.2(3).
The maximum antenna gain permitted (for devices in the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5470-5725 MHz) to comply with the e.i.r.p. limit.
High-power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority) of the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and these radars could cause interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
ADIATION EXPOSURE STATEMENT:
IC R
This equipment complies with IC RSS-102 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.

1 INTRODUCTION
The EliteConnect meets draft 2.0 standards. It is fully interoperable with older 802.11a/b/g standards, providing a transparent, wireless high speed data communication between the wired LAN and fixed or mobile devices. The unit includes three detachable dual-band 2.4/5 GHz antennas with the option to attach alternative antennas that can extend or shape the network coverage area.

KEY HARDWARE FEATURES

The following table describes the main hardware features of the AP.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPABILITIES

The SMCE21011 supports up to eight Virtual Access Point (VAP) interfaces, which allow traffic to be separated for different user groups within the same AP service area. The VAPs can support up to a total of 64 wireless clients, whereby the clients associate with each VAP in the same way as they would with physically separate access points. This means that each VAP can be configured with its own Service Set Identification (SSID), security settings, VLAN assignments, and other parameters, allowing the AP to serve a diverse range of client needs in an area from a single unit.

In addition, the access point offers full network management capabilities through an easy to configure web interface, a command line interface for initial configuration and troubleshooting, and support for Simple Network Management tools.
The SMCE21011 utilises MIMO technology and Spatial Multiplexing to achieve the highest possible data rate and throughput on the 802.11n frequency. The unit’s PoE RJ-45 port provides a 1 Gbps full-duplex link to a wired LAN.

and multiple-output) antennas. MIMO uses multiple antennas for transmitting and receiving radio signals to improve data throughput and link range.
Each antenna transmits the outgoing signal as a toroidal sphere (doughnut shaped), with the coverage extending most in a direction perpendicular to the antenna. Therefore, the antennas should be adjusted to an angle that provides the appropriate coverage for the service area.
The antennas supplied with the AP screw off in a clockwise manner and can be replaced with alternative antennas that can extend or shape the coverage area.
