The user’s manual for OEM Integrators must include the following information in a prominent 
location “IMPORTANT NOTE: To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements. The 
antenna must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or 
transmitter”.

 

Caution: 

The device for the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor usage to reduce potential for harmful 
interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems. 

Because high power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority) in 5250-
5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz, these radars could cause interference and/or damage to license 
exempt LAN devices. 

European Community — CE Notice: 

The CE! mark indicates compliance with the essential requirements of Directive 
1999/5/EC.  Such marking is indicative that this equipment meets or exceeds the 
following technical standards:  

  EN 300 328

 

  EN 301 893
