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.
