Aerohive

HiveAP Compliance Information

Federal Communication Commission Interference 

Statement

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for

a  Class  B  digital  device,  pursuant  to  Part  15  of  the  FCC  Rules.  These
limits  are  designed  to  provide  reasonable  protection  against  harmful

interference  in  a  residential  installation.  This  equipment  generates,
uses  and can  radiate  radio  frequency  energy  and,  if  not  installed and

used  in  accordance  with  the  instructions,  may  cause  harmful

interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee
that  interference  will  not  occur  in  a  particular  installation.  If  this

equipment  does  cause  harmful  interference  to  radio  or  television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and

on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of
the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from

that to which the receiver is connected

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help

FCC Caution:

 Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by

the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to

operate this  equipment. This device complies with  Part 15 of the  FCC
Rules.  Operation  is  subject  to  the  following  two  conditions:  (1)  This

device  may  not  cause  harmful  interference,  and  (2)  this  device  must

accept  any  interference  received,  including  interference  that  may
cause undesired operation.

Important: FCC Radiation Exposure Statement

This  equipment  complies  with  FCC  radiation  exposure  limits  set  forth
for  an  uncontrolled  environment.  This  equipment  should  be  installed

and  operated  with  a  minimum  distance  of  20  centimeters  (8  inches)

between the radiator and your body. This transmitter must not be co-
located  or  operating  in  conjunction  with  any  other  antenna  or

transmitter.

Wireless 5 GHz Band Statements

To comply with FCC regulations, do not use channels 36, 40, 44, and 48

in  the  5.15

5.25  GHz  band  when  HiveAPs  are  deployed  outdoors.  In

addition, the transmission power is limited to a maximum of 15 dBm.

Because  radar systems  use  some  bands  in  the  5  GHz  spectrum,  WLAN

devices  operating  in  these  bands  must  use  DFS  (Dynamic  Frequency
Selection) to detect radar activity and switch channels automatically to

avoid  interfering  with  radar  operations.  DFS  is  required  for  WLAN

devices  operating  within  the  5.25

5.35 GHz  UNII-2  and  the 5.47

5.725

UNII Mid-Band  spectrums in  the FCC regions of North America and the

ETSI regions in the European Community. DFS is not required for WLAN
devices operating in the 5.725-5.850 GHz spectrum in FCC regions. (The

5.725-5.850  GHz  spectrum  is  not  available  for  wireless  use  in  ETSI
regions.) HiveAP  300 series  models support  DFS-FCC  and  DFS-ETSI and

are  permitted  to  operate  in  the  5.25

5.35  GHz  and  5.47

5.725  GHz

bands in outdoor deployments in the FCC and ETSI regions.

Note: The term "IC" before the radio certification number signifies that

Industry Canada technical specifications were met.

Industry Canada - Class B

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise
emissions from digital apparatus as set out in the interference-causing

equipment  standard  entitled  "Digital  Apparatus,"  ICES-003  of  Industry
Canada.

Wi-Fi Certification

The  Wi-Fi  CERTIFIED

  Logo  is  a  certification  mark  of  the  Wi-Fi

Alliance

®

.  The  Aerohive  HiveAP  20  ag  has  been  certified  for  WPA

,

WPA2

,  WMM

®

  (Wi-Fi  Multimedia

),  WMM  Power  Save,  and  the

following types of EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol):

EAP-TLS

EAP-TTLS/MSCHAPv2

PEAPv0/EAP-MSCHAPv2

PEAPv1/EAP-GTC

EAP-SIM

EC Conformance Declaration

Marking  by  the  above  symbol  indicates  compliance  with  the  Essential

Requirements of the R&TTE  Directive  of the European Union  (1999/5/
EC). This equipment meets the following conformance standards:

EN 60950-1 (IEC 60950-1) - Product Safety

EN 301 893 - Technical requirements for 5 GHz radio equipment

EN 300 328 - Technical requirements for 2.4 GHz radio equipment

EN  301  489-1  /  EN  301  489-17  -  EMC  requirements  for  radio

equipment

Countries of Operation and Conditions 

of Use in the European Community

HiveAPs are  intended  to  be  operated  in  all  countries  of  the European
Community.  Requirements  for  indoor  vs.  outdoor  operation,  license

requirements  and  allowed  channels  of  operation  apply  in  some

countries as described below.

Before  operating  a  HiveAP,  the  admin  or  installer  must  properly
enter  the  current  country  of  operation  in  the  command  line

interface as described in 

"Appendix A Country Codes" on page 177

.

Note to U.S. model owners: To comply with U.S. FCC regulations,

the country selection function has been completely removed from

all U.S. models. The above function is for non-U.S. models only. 

HiveAPs automatically limit the allowable channels determined by
the current country of operation. Incorrectly entering the country

of  operation  might  result  in  illegal  operation  and  cause  harmful
interference  to  other  systems.  The  admin  is  obligated  to  ensure

HiveAPs  are  operating  according  to  the  channel  limitations,

indoor/outdoor  restrictions  and  license  requirements  for  each
European Community country as described in this section.

HiveAPs can be operated indoors or outdoors in all countries of the
European  Community  using  the  2.4  GHz  band:  Channels  1  -  13,

except where noted below.

In  Italy,  you  must  apply  for  a  license  from  the  national
spectrum authority to operate a HiveAP outdoors.

In Belgium outdoor operation is only permitted using the 2.46 -

2.4835 GHz band: Channel 13.

In  France  outdoor  operation  is  only  permitted  using  the  2.4  -
2.454 GHz band: Channels 1 - 7.

HiveAPs  using  the  5.15

5.25  GHz  band  (Channels  36,  40,  44,  48)

are  restricted  to  indoor  use  when  operated  in  the  European
Community.  Because  the  frequency  ranges  5.25

5.35  and  5.47

5.725 are affected by DFS (Dynamic Frequency Selection), HiveAP
20 and 28 models block channels 52, 56, 60, 64, and 100, 104, 108,

112, 116, 120, 124, 128, 132, 136, 140.
