Intentional emitter per FCC Part 15
Low power, Radio transmitter type devices (radio frequency (RF) wireless communication devices),
operating in the 2.4 GHz band and/or 5.15 – 5.35 GHz band, may be present (embedded) in your
computer system. This section is only applicable if these devices are present. Refer to the system
label to verify the presence of wireless devices.
Wireless devices that may be in your system are only qualified for use in the United States of

The FCC has set a general guideline of 20 cm (8 inches) separation between the device and the
body (including bystanders), for use of a wireless device near the body (this does not include
extremities). This device should be used more than 20 cm (8 inches) from the body when wireless
devices are on. The power output of the wireless device (or devices), which may be embedded in
your computer, is well below the RF exposure limits as set by the FCC.
The wireless devices installed in this system are intended to be used indoors. In some areas, use of
these devices outdoors is prohibited.
Additionally, your system may have an optional wireless keyboard and mouse included with it.
The power and frequency range associated with these devices do not have the same RF exposure
concerns as previously commented on with the wireless LAN products. The experts on the effects
of RF exposure feel these types of devices are safe for use, due to the frequencies and power levels
involved.
Operation of this device 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
