FCC Compliance Statement
This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and used properly, that is, in
strict accordance with the instructions provided with the equipment, may cause interference to radio and TV
communication. The equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing
device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to
provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If you suspect this equipment is causing interference, turn your Ethernet Switch on and off while your radio
or TV is showing interference, if the interference disappears when you turn your Ethernet Switch off and
reappears when you turn it back on, there is interference being caused by the Ethernet Switch.
You can try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient the receiving radio or TV antenna where this may be done safely.
2. To the extent possible, relocate the radio, TV or other receiver away from the Switch.
3. Plug the Ethernet Switch into a different power outlet so that the Switch and the receiver are on different
branch circuits.
If necessary, you should consult the place of purchase or an experienced radio/television technician for
additional suggestions.
Caution: Do not use a RJ-11 (telephone) cable to connect your network equipment.
