Important Notice
Because of the nature of wireless communications, transmission and reception of data can never be
guaranteed. Data may be delayed, corrupted (i.e., have errors) or be totally lost.
Although significant delays or losses of data are rare when wireless devices such as the Sierra
Wireless modem are used in a normal manner with a well-constructed network, the Sierra Wireless
modem should not be used in situations where failure to transmit or receive data could result in
damage of any kind to the user or any other party, including but not limited to personal injury, death,
or loss of property. Sierra Wireless and its affiliates accept no responsibility for damages of any kind
resulting from delays or errors in data transmitted or received using Sierra Wireless modem, or for
failure of the Sierra Wireless modem to transmit or receive such data.
5.2.
Safety and Hazards
Do not operate the AirPrime AR7582:
In areas where blasting is in progress
Where explosive atmospheres may be present including refueling points, fuel depots, and
chemical plants
Near medical equipment, life support equipment, or any equipment which may be susceptible
to any form of radio interference. In such areas, the AirPrime AR7582 device
MUST BE
POWERED OFF
. Otherwise, the AirPrime AR7592 device can transmit signals that could
interfere with this equipment
In an aircraft, the AirPrime AR7582 device
MUST BE POWERED OFF.
Otherwise, the
AirPrime AR7582 device can transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard
systems and may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft or disrupt the cellular network.
Use of cellular phone in aircraft is illegal in some jurisdictions. Failure to observe this
instruction may lead to suspension or denial of cellular telephone services to the offender, or
legal action or both.
Some airlines may permit the use of cellular phones while the aircraft is on the ground and
the door is open. The AirPrime AR7582 device may be used normally at this time.
5.3.
Important Compliance Information
The AirPrime AR7582 is granted with a modular approval for mobile applications. Integrators may use
the AR7582 device in their final products without additional FCC/IC (Industry Canada) certification if
they meet the following conditions. Otherwise, additional FCC/IC approvals must be obtained.
1.
The end product must use the RF trace design approved with the AirPrime AR7592-1 module.
The Gerber file of the trace design can be obtained from Sierra Wireless upon request.
2.
At least 20cm separation distance between the antenna and the user
’s body must be
maintained at all times.
3.
To comply with FCC/IC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and human
exposure to RF radiation, the maximum antenna gain including cable loss in a mobile-only
exposure condition must not exceed the gain values presented in the table below:
4.0 dBi in Cellular band
5.0 dBi in PCS band
4.0 dBi in LTE Band 4/AWS band
