Environmental Restrictions of Wireless Devices 

KBC products are engineered to the highest standards and designed to work in a variety 
of wireless applications and environments. A wireless environment includes the site in 
which the product is installed, the installation including power and cabling as well as any 
extra materials that might be necessary to complete the wireless project. Due to the fact 
that environments and installations differ from site to site, KBC cannot control the 
variables required to ensure an ideal environment. Therefore, it is not possible to 
guarantee a successful application based on a drawing, application note, distance 
calculation, quote or other type of material that KBC may provide. Should a quote, 
drawing, etc. be made available, it is based on the performance of the WESII product in 
an ideal environment with clear line-of-sight, absence of 5 GHz interference and/or 
frequency multi-path reflection. Therefore, KBC cannot be held responsible should the 
products not operate as desired or should additional products be required to complete a 
project. In addition, should a particular environment restrict the usage of the WESII in 
any way, KBC offers a thirty (30) day return policy from date of shipment to the original 
purchaser if goods are returned in an ‘as new’ condition.
