Europe - Restrictions for Use of 5 GHz Frequencies in
European Community Countries
O: allowed x: forbidden
❖ To remain in conformance with European spectrum usage laws for
Wireless LAN operation, the above 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz channel limitations
apply. The user should use the wireless LAN utility to check the current
channel of operation. If operation is occurring outside of the allowable
frequencies as listed above, the user must cease operating the Wireless
LAN at that location and consult the local technical support staff
responsible for the wireless network.
❖ The 5 GHz Turbo mode feature is not allowed for operation in any
European Community country.
❖ This device must not be operated in ad-hoc mode using channels in the
5 GHz bands in the European Community. Ad-hoc mode provides a direct
communication between two client devices without a Wireless LAN
Access Point.
❖ This device must be used with Access Points that have employed and
activated a radar detection feature required for European Community
operation in the 5 GHz bands. This device will operate under the control of
the Access Point in order to avoid operating on a channel occupied by any
radar system in the area. The presence of nearby radar operation may result
in temporary interruption of operation of this device. The Access Point’s
radar detection feature will automatically restart operation on a channel free
of radar. You may consult with the local technical support staff responsible
for the wireless network to ensure the Access Point device(s) are properly
configured for European Community operation.
