Wireless Interoperability

The 

Integrated 802.11g 

enabled notebook is designed to be interoperable with any wireless LAN product that is based on direct 

sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) radio technology and to comply with 
the following standards:

     

IEEE Std 802.11b-1999. Standard on 2.4 GHz Wireless LAN

     

IEEE Std 802.11g-2002. Draft standard on 2.4 GHz Wireless LAN

Safety

The 

Integrated 802.11g 

enabled notebook, like other radio devices, emits radio frequency electromagnetic energy. The level of energy 

emitted by this devices, however, is less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by other wireless devices such as mobile 
phones. The 

Integrated 802.11g 

enabled notebook operates within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and 

recommendations. These standards and recommendations reflect the consensus of the scientific community and result from 
deliberations of panels and committees of scientists who continually review and interpret the extensive research literature. In some 
situations or environments, the use of a 

Integrated 802.11g 

enabled notebook may be restricted by the proprietor of the building or 

responsible representatives of the applicable organization. Examples of such situations include the following:

     

Using the 

Integrated 802.11g 

enabled notebook onboard airplanes, or

     

Using the 

Integrated 802.11g 

enabled notebook in any other environment where the risk of interference with other devices or 

services is perceived or identified as being harmful.

If uncertain of the policy that applies to the use of wireless devices in a specific organization or environment (an airplane, for 
example), ask for authorization to use the 

Integrated 802.11g 

enabled notebook before turning it on.
