Compliances and Safety Warnings

FCC - Class A

This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not 
installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause interference to 
radio communications. It has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A 
computing device pursuant to Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to 
provide reasonable protection against such interference when operated in a commercial 
environment. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause 
interference, in which case the user, at his own expense, will be required to take whatever 
measures may be required to correct the interference. You are cautioned that changes or 
modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void 
your authority to operate the equipment.

You may use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) for RJ-45 connections - Category 3 or better 
for 10 Mbps connections, Category 5 or better for 100 Mbps connections, Category 5, 5e, 
or 6 for 1000 Mbps connections. For fiber optic connections, you may use 50/125 or 62.5/
125 micron multimode fiber or 9/125 micron single-mode fiber.
