party hardware components integrated through CFI for the duration of the computer’s service contract.
Definition of "Dell-Installed" Software and Peripherals
Dell-installed software includes the operating system and some of the software programs that are
installed on the computer during the manufacturing process (Microsoft

so on).
Dell-installed peripherals include any internal expansion cards, or Dell-branded module bay or PC Card
accessories. In addition, any Dell-branded monitors, keyboards, mice, speakers, microphones for
telephonic modems, docking stations/port replicators, networking products, and all associated cabling are

Definition of "Third-Party" Software and Peripherals

not under the Dell brand (printers, scanners, cameras, games, and so on). Support for all third-party
software and peripherals is provided by the original manufacturer of the product.
FCC Notices (U.S. Only)
Most Dell computer systems are classified by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) as
Class B digital devices. To determine which classification applies to your computer system, examine all
FCC registration labels located on the bottom, side, or back panel of your computer, on card-mounting
brackets, and on the cards themselves. If any one of the labels carries a Class A rating, your entire system
is considered to be a Class A digital device. If
all labels carry an FCC Class B rating as distinguished by
either an FCC ID number or the FCC logo, ( ), your system is considered to be a Class B digital
device.
