Cet appareillage numérique de la classe [B] répond à toutes les exigences de l’interférence 

canadienne causant des règlements d’équipement. L’opération est sujette aux deux conditions 

suivantes: (1) ce dispositif peut ne pas causer l’interférence nocive, et (2) ce dispositif doit accepter 

n’importe quelle interférence reçue, y compris l’interférence qui peut causer l’opération peu désirée.
Le fabricant nominale de la puissance de sortie de ce matériel est simple transporteur. Pour les 

situations lorsque plusieurs signauxporteurs sont présents, l’évaluation devrait être réduite de 

3.5 dB, en particulier lorsque le signal de sortie est ré-émise et peut provoquer des interférences 

adjacentes à la bande utilisateurs. Ce pouvoir est de la réduction par le biais de la sortie 

d’alimentation ou la réduction de gain et non par un atténuateur à la sortie du dispositif.
