U.S.A.

declares that this product conforms to the FCC’s specifications:

Part 15, Class B

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation of this device is subject to the following conditions:
1) this device may not cause harmful electromagnetic interference, and
2) this device must accept any interference received including interference that may cause undesired operations.

This equipment complies with FCC Part 15 for Home and Office use.

Caution to the User: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Detachable Antenna Information

FCC Part 15, Subpart C, Section 15.203 Antenna requirement

5454 users: An intentional radiator shall be designed to ensure that no antenna other than that furnished by the responsible party shall be used with the device. The use of a permanently attached antenna or of an antenna that uses a unique coupling to the intentional radiator shall be considered sufficient to comply with the provisions of this section. The manufacturer may design the unit so that a broken antenna can be replaced by the user, but the use of a standard antenna jack or electrical connector is prohibited.

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 minimum distance 20 cm between the radiator and your body. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

Radio and Television Interference:

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. If this equipment is not installed and used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, it 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 or more of the following measures:

USR declares 5454 is limited in CH1~11 from 2412 to 2462 MHz by specified firmware controlled in USA.

UL Listing/CUL Listing:

This information technology equipment is UL Listed and C-UL Listed for both the US and Canadian markets respectively for the uses described in the User Guide. Use this product only with UL Listed Information Technology Equipment (ITE).

This product is intended to be supplied by a UL Listed Direct Plug-in Power Unit rated 15 VDC, 1200 mA maximum.

For Canadian Users

Industry Canada (IC)

This equipment complies with RSS-210 of the Industry Canada Rules.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1. This device may not cause interference.

2. This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

To prevent radio interference to the licensed service, this device is intended to be operated indoors and away from windows to provide maximum shielding.

Equipment (or its transmit antenna) that is installed outdoors is subject to licensing.

This device has been designed to operate with an antenna having a maximum gain of 2 dBi. Antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per regulations of Industry Canada. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.

To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) is not more than that required for successful communication.

Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines, and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.

Caution: Users should not attempt to make electrical ground connections by themselves, but should contact the appropriate inspection authority or an electrician, as appropriate.

Radiation Exposure Statement: This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

EU Health Protection

This device complies with the European requirements governing exposure to electromagnetic radiation. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20 cm between the radiator and your body. This wireless device is a transmitter/receiver and has been designed and manufactured to comply with the exposure limits recommended by the Council of the European Union and the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP, 1999) for the entire population. The exposure standard for portable equipment uses the "Specific Absorption Rate" as unit of measure. The maximum SAR value of this wireless device measured in the conformity test is 0.838 W/Kg.

EU Detachable Antenna Information

This USRobotics wireless device has been designed to operate with the antenna included in this package only. Together this device and antenna combination has been tested and approved by a European Agency conforming with the European R&TTE directive 1999/5/EC to meet the radiated power level requirement of 100mW (EIRP). Replacement of this antenna must only be done with an authorized USRobotics component that has been designed and tested with the unit to the requirements of directive 1999/5/EC.
