HiveAP Compliance Information
Federal Communication Commission 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 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 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
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by
the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to
operate this equipment. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. 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 undesired operation.
Important: FCC Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth
for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed
and operated with a minimum distance of 20 centimeters (8 inches)
between the radiator and your body. This transmitter must not be co-
located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
Wireless 5 GHz Band Statements
High power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have
priority) of the 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz bands. These radars
could cause interference and/or damage to the HiveAP when used in
Canada.
The term "IC" before the radio certification number only signifies that
Industry Canada technical specifications were met.
Industry Canada - Class B
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise
emissions from digital apparatus as set out in the interference-causing
equipment standard entitled "Digital Apparatus," ICES-003 of Industry
Canada.
Cet appareil numérique respecte les limites de bruits radioélectriques
applicables aux appareils numériques de Classe B prescrites dans la
norme sur le matériel brouilleur: "Appareils Numériques," NMB-003
édictée par l'Industrie.

EC Conformance Declaration
Marking by the above symbol indicates compliance with the Essential
Requirements of the R&TTE Directive of the European Union (1999/5/
EC). This equipment meets the following conformance standards:
• EN 60950-1 (IEC 60950-1) - Product Safety
• EN 301 893 - Technical requirements for 5 GHz radio equipment

equipment
Countries of Operation and Conditions
of Use in the European Community
HiveAPs are intended to be operated in all countries of the European
Community. Requirements for indoor vs. outdoor operation, license
requirements and allowed channels of operation apply in some
countries as described below.
• Before operating a HiveAP, the admin or installer must properly
enter the current country of operation in the command line
interface as described in
"Appendix A Country Codes" on page 157
.
• HiveAPs automatically limit the allowable channels determined by
the current country of operation. Incorrectly entering the country
of operation might result in illegal operation and cause harmful
interference to other systems. The admin is obligated to ensure
HiveAPs are operating according to the channel limitations,
indoor/outdoor restrictions and license requirements for each
European Community country as described in this section.
• HiveAPs can be operated indoors or outdoors in all countries of the
European Community using the 2.4 GHz band: Channels 1 - 13,
except where noted below.
– In Italy, you must apply for a license from the national
spectrum authority to operate a HiveAP outdoors.
– In Belgium outdoor operation is only permitted using the 2.46 -
2.4835 GHz band: Channel 13.
– In France outdoor operation is only permitted using the 2.4 -
2.454 GHz band: Channels 1 - 7.
• HiveAPs are restricted to indoor use when operated in the
European Community using the 5.15 - 5.25 GHz band: Channels 36,
40, 44, 48. Because the frequency ranges 5.25 – 5.35 and 5.47 –
5.725 are affected by DFS (Dynamic Frequency Selection), HiveAPs
block channels 52, 56, 60, 64, and 100, 104, 108, 112, 116, 120,
124, 128, 132, 136, 140.
• The 5 GHz Turbo Mode feature is not allowed for operation in any
European Community country. You can find the current setting for
this feature in two places. In the HiveManager GUI, click
Configuration > Network Objects> Radio Profiles > profile >
Advanced. In the HiveAP CLI, enter this command: show radio
profile profile. By default, Turbo Mode is disabled.
