Industry Canada
The IC Certification Number for the EUM3005 (Cdn) is 3225B-EUM3003.
Operators must be familiar with IC RSS-210 and RSS-102. The EUM3005 (Cdn) has
been designed and manufactured to comply with IC RSS-210 and RSS-102.
Due to different regulatory requirements, the EUM3005 (Cdn) outputs about 1.5 dB
less power than the EUM3005 and is to be used in Canada. The EUM3005 (Cdn) is
labelled clearly as such. An EUM3005 (Cdn) can be used in the US, since it has lower
power than the FCC requirements. However, an EUM3005 cannot be used in Canada
due to its higher output power.
APCD-LM047-1.1 ix
Federal Communications Commission
The EUM3005 has been designed and manufactured to comply with FCC Part 15.
Operators must be familiar with the requirements of the FCC Part 15 Regulations prior
to operating any link using this equipment. For installations outside the United States,
contact local authorities for applicable regulations.
The FCC ID for the EUM3005 equipment is OOX-EUM3005.
The transmitter of this device complies with Part 15.247 of the FCC Rules.
Note: 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 the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
:
Interference Environment
Operation is subject to the following conditions:
• This device may not cause harmful interference and,
• This device must accept any interference received, including interference that
might cause undesired operation.
Operational Requirements
In accordance with the FCC Part 15 regulations:
1. The maximum average power output of the intentional radiator shall not
exceed one (1) watt (30 dBm) for all spread spectrum systems operating in
the 902 to 928MHz band.
2. Stations operating in the 902 to 928MHz band may use transmitting antennas
of directional gain greater than 6dBi, provided the average output power from
the intentional radiator is reduced by the amount in dB that the directional gain
of the antenna exceeds 6dBi.
3. The operator of a spread spectrum system and the user of the radio device
are each responsible for ensuring that the system is operated in the manner
outlined in Interference Environment on page x.
APCD-LM047-1.1 x
The EUM3005 with its indoor diverstiy antenna complies with these requirements, since the
maximum average transmitting power is 24.4 dBm measured at the antenna port . This is 5.6
dB below the maximum allowed, so the active diversity indoor antenna system with its 4.4 dBi
gain, including the loss in the captive RF cable, is allowed.
Warnings and Advisories
General Advisory
Installers, operators and maintenance personnel must be familiar with the related safety
requirements before they attempt to install or operate the EUM3005.
It is the responsibility of the operator to ensure that the public is not exposed to excessive
Radio Frequency (RF) levels. The applicable regulations can be obtained from local
authorities.
WARNING!
To comply with FCC RF exposure limits, the EUM3005 must
be fix-mounted indoors to provide a separation distance of
20cm (8 inches) or more from all persons to satisfy RF
exposure requirements. The distance is measured from the
nearest point of the modem to the human body. It is
recommended that the modem be installed in a location with
minimal pathway disruption by nearby personnel.
:
Important Safeguards
CAUTION: To reduce risk of electrical shock, do not remove
covers, since there are no user-serviceable parts inside.
