Caution
: Due to the fact that the frequencies used by 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n wireless LAN
devices may not yet be harmonized in all countries, 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n products are
designed for use only in specific countries, and are not allowed to be operated in countries other than those of
designated use. As a user of these products, you are responsible for ensuring that the products are used only in
the countries for which they were intended and for verifying that they are configured with the correct selection of
frequency and channel for the country of use. The device transmit power control (TPC) interface is part of the
Intel® PROSet/Wireless WiFi Connection Utility Software. Operational restrictions for Equivalent Isotropic Radiated
Power (EIRP) are provided by the system manufacturer. Any deviation from the permissible power and frequency
settings for the country of use is an infringement of national law and may be punished as such.
For country-specific information, see the additional compliance information supplied with the product.
Wireless Interoperability
The wireless adapter is designed to be interoperable with other wireless LAN products that are based on direct
sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) radio technology and to comply with the following standards:
IEEE Std. 802.11b compliant Standard on Wireless LAN
IEEE Std. 802.11g compliant Standard on Wireless LAN
IEEE Std. 802.11a compliant Standard on Wireless LAN
IEEE Std. 802.11n draft 2.0 compliant on Wireless LAN
Wireless Fidelity certification, as defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance
The Wireless Adapter and Your Health
The wireless adapter, like other radio devices, emits radio frequency electromagnetic energy. The level of energy
emitted by the wireless adapter, however, is less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by other wireless
devices such as mobile phones. The wireless adapter 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 the wireless adapter
may be restricted by the proprietor of the building or responsible representatives of the applicable organization.
Examples of such situations may include:
Using the wireless adapter on board airplanes, or
Using the wireless adapter in any other environment where the risk of interference with other devices or
services is perceived or identified as being harmful.
If you are uncertain of the policy that applies to the use of wireless adapters in a specific organization or
environment (an airport, for example), you are encouraged to ask for authorization to use the adapter before you
turn it on.
