All BLiNQ Networks products are evaluated to ensure they conform to the Radio Frequency (RF) energy
emission safety limits adopted by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). These evaluations are
conducted using the compliance rules and guidelines adopted by both the FCC and Industry Canada.
They are based on the results of the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) studies by the FCC for
mobile or fixed devices, which dictate MPE limits for human exposure to RF energy.
Before selling any wireless networking device to the public, BLiNQ Networks submits its devices to the
FCC and Industry Canada for MPE (that is, RF emissions) studies and evaluation. These studies must
demonstrate that the device meets the accepted regulatory limits for safe RF emissions, or it is not
approved for sale by the FCC and thus cannot be sold to the public. This means that when wireless
networking devices purchased from BLiNQ Networks are installed and operated as instructed, the RF
emissions from the devices is equal to or less than the levels accepted as safe by the FCC and Industry
Canada.
When used as intended, BLiNQ wireless networking devices do not pose health risks. Like other devices
that emit RF energy (such as computers and microwave ovens), the level of RF emissions from BLiNQ
devices is too low to cause harm. Further, BLiNQ wireless networking devices emit far lower levels of RF
energy than cellular and cordless telephones, and are almost always used further away from the human
body.
To prevent unnecessary exposure to RF energy:
Always install the X-1200 system so as to provide and maintain a minimum separation distance
from all persons.
When the X-1200 system is operational, avoid standing directly in front of Hub Module (HM)
antennas or in front of Remote Backhaul Modules (RBMs) and their internal antennas. RF energy
fields may be present when the transmitter is on.
When the X 1200 system is operational, maintain a distance of at least 50 centimeters (19.7
inches) from the Hub Module (HM) antennas or the Remote Backhaul Modules (RBMs) internal
antennas.
Do not install the X-1200 system in a location where it is possible for people to stand or walk
inadvertently in front of an antenna.
Antenna Statement:
When used with an external antenna, this device has been designated to operate with a SP-4642
Selectable Multi-beam and Sector Antenna manufactured by Plasma Antennas having a maximum gain
of 17 dB. Any other antenna having a gain greater than 17 dB is strictly prohibited for use with this
device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
The antenna used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 50
cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
