FCC REGULATORY INFORMATION
Please note the following regulatory information related to the
wireless LAN device.
Regulatory Notes and Statements
Wireless LAN, Health and Authorization for use
Radio frequency electromagnetic energy is emitted from Wireless
LAN devices. The energy levels of these emissions, however, are far
much less than the electromagnetic energy emissions from wireless
devices such as mobile phones. Wireless LAN devices are safe for use
by consumers because they operate within the guidelines found in
radio frequency safety standards and recommendations. The use of
Wireless LAN devices may be restricted in some situations or envi-
ronments, such as:
■
On board an airplane, or
■
In an explosive environment, or
■
In situations where the interference risk to other devices or ser-
vices is perceived or identified as harmful.
In cases in which the policy regarding use of Wireless LAN devices
in specific environments is not clear (e.g., airports, hospitals, chem-
ical/oil/gas industrial plants, private buildings), obtain authoriza-
tion to use these devices prior to operating the equipment.
Regulatory Information/Disclaimers
Installation and use of this Wireless LAN device must be in strict
accordance with the instructions included in the user documenta-
tion provided with the product. Any changes or modifications made
to this device that are not expressly approved by the manufacturer
may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. The manu-
facturer is not responsible for any radio or television interference
caused by unauthorized modification of this device, or the substitu-
tion or attachment of connecting cables and equipment other than
those specified by the manufacturer. It is the responsibility of the
user to correct any interference caused by such unauthorized modi-
fication, substitution or attachment. The manufacturer and its
authorized resellers or distributors will assume no liability for any
damage or violation of government regulations arising from failure
to comply with these guidelines.
This device must not be co-located or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter.
For operation within 5.15~5.25 GHz frequency range, the device is
restricted to indoor environments, and the antenna of this device
must be integral.
Federal Communications Commission statement
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules.
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 oper-
ation of this device.
FCC 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. If not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, it may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is
no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installa-
tion.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or televi-
sion reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try and correct the interference
by one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the distance between the equipment and the receiver.
3. Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from
the one the receiver is connected to.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for
help.
FCC Radio Frequency Exposure statement
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health
problems are associated with using low power wireless devices.
There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are
absolutely safe. Low power wireless devices emit low levels of radio
frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used.
Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating
tissue), exposure to low-level RF that does not produce heating
effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-
level RF exposure have not found any biological effects. Some
studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but
such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. The
wireless LAN radio device has been tested and found to comply with
FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled equip-
ment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines
in Supplement C to OET65.
The maximum SAR value measured from the devices are:
■
Intel PROSet Wireless LAN (WM3945ABG): 1.42 W/kg
■
Intel PROSet Wireless LAN (WM3945ABG) + Bluetooth
Simultaneous: 1.42 W/kg
■
Atheros Wireless LAN (AR5BXB6): 1.57 W/kg
■
Atheros Wireless LAN (AR5BXB6) + Bluetooth
Simultaneous: 1.55 W/kg
Export restrictions
This product or software contains encryption code which may not
be exported or transferred from the US or Canada without an
approved US Department of Commerce export license. This device
complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules., as well as ICES 003 B / NMB
003 B. 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 undesirable operation. Modifications not expressly autho-
rized by Fujitsu Computer Systems Corporation may invalidate the
user's right to operate this equipment.
Canadian Notice
The device for the 5150-5250 MHz band is only for indoor usage to
reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile
satellite systems.
The maximum antenna gain of 6 dBi permitted (for devices in the
5250-5350 MHz , 5470-5725 MHz, and 5725-5825 MHz bands) to
comply with the e.i.r.p. limit as stated in A9.2 of RSS210.
In addition, users are cautioned to take note that high power radars
are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority) of 5250-
5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz bands and these radars could cause
interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices.
