12.1 Operational restrictions
NOTICE
Operational restrictions!
Depending on its type, the RFU620-10x
xx
is configured in its frequency band
so that it corresponds to the respective region-dependent specifications. The
relevant settings cannot be changed.
Without interfering with nationally protected frequencies (e.g. mobile radio),
the device can be operated in the following assigned regions depending on
the type,
"Device type" and "Regional assign‐
ment" column.
Operating the same RFU620-10x
xx
in other regions can interfere with pro‐
tected frequencies.
•
Only use the RFU620-10x
xx
in the region for which a certification is
available.
•
When reselling the RFU620-10x
xx
, inform the buyer that the regional
assignment cannot be changed.
France
The RFU620-10xxx must not be operated within a 20 km radius of 13 military
zones.
Lithuania
There may be restrictions in Lithuania (extent not currently known).
Russia
Only licensed operation is possible in Russia.
USA
(1) 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.
(2) Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
(3) Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for
a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to
cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the
interference at his own expense.
(4) To comply with FCC part 15 rules in the United States, the system must be pro‐
fessionally installed to ensure compliance with the Part 15 certification.
(5) It is the responsibility of the operator and profes-sional installer to ensure that
only certified systems are deployed in the United States. The use of the system in
any other combination (such as co-located antennas transmitting the same infor‐
mation) is expressly forbidden.
(6) This device complies with the limit values defined by the FCC for radio radia‐
tion in an uncontrolled environment. The device must have a minimum distance
of 20 cm between the source of radiation and your body.
Canada
(1) This Class A digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
(2) This device satisfies the Industry Canada CNR applicable to license-free radio
equipment. Use is permitted providing the two following conditions are met: (1)
The device must not cause any faults and (2) the user of the device must accept
any fault produced in the device, even if this may impair its function.
Mexico
(1) IFETEL note:
“Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device must not pro‐
duce any harmful faults and (2) this device must be able to withstand faults,
including faults that may cause unwanted operating behavior.”
Korea
(1) This equipment is Industrial (Class A) electromag-netic wave suitability equip‐
ment and seller or user should take notice of it, and this equipment is to be used
in the places except for home.
(2) That wireless equipment is likely to cause propa-gation interference, and so
can not be associated with lifesaving services.
Thailand
(1) This telecommunication equipment is in compliance with NBTC requirements.
(2) This radiocommunication equipment has the electromagnetic field strength in
compliance with the Safety Standard for the Use of Radiocommunication Equip‐
ment on Human Health announced by the National Telecommunications Commis‐
sion.
