Using an unshielded network cable (UTP) –

This equipment has

been tested using an unshielded network cable (UTP) and found to
comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the equipment is
operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case

the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

Using a shielded network cable (STP) –

This equipment has also

been tested using a shielded network cable (STP) 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 or
more 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.

To be used in a residential area or a demanding electrical environment,
the product shall be connected using a shielded network cable (STP)
that is properly grounded.
