Operation in the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor use to reduce the potential for harmful 
interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems.

La bande 5 150-5 250 MHz est réservés uniquement pour une utilisation à l'intérieur afin de réduire 
les risques de brouillage préjudiciable aux systèmes de satellites mobiles utilisant les mêmes canaux.

Users are advised that high-power radars are allocated as primary users (i.e. priority users) of the 
bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and that these radars could cause interference and/or 
damage to LE-LAN devices.

Les utilisateurs êtes avisés que les utilisateurs de radars de haute puissance sont désignés utilisateurs 
principaux (c.-à-d., qu'ils ont la priorité) pour les bandes 5 250-5 350 MHz et 5 650-5 850 MHz et 
que ces radars pourraient causer du brouillage et/ou des dommages aux dispositifs LAN-EL.
