7-1 REGULATORY INFORMATION
The CAP complies with the following radio frequency and safety standards.
Canada - Industry Canada (IC)
This Class B digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference Causing
Equipment Regulations. 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.
Cet appareillage numérique de la classe B répond à toutes les exigences de l'interférence canadienne
causant des règlements d'équipement. L'opération est sujette aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) ce
dispositif peut ne pas causer l'interférence nocive, et (2) ce dispositif doit accepter n'importe quelle
interférence reçue, y compris l'interférence qui peut causer l'opération peu désirée.
This device has been designed to operate with antennas having a maximum gain of 3 dB for units
configured with Cabin Access Point (CAP) operating software or 5 dB for units configured with
Wireless Access Bridge (WAB) operating software. Antennas having a higher gain are strictly
prohibited per regulations of Industry Canada. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
Europe - EU Declaration of Conformity
Users must select wireless operational settings that conform to local regulations. If more than one
unit is deployed, users must ensure that frequencies are spread among different channels according to
channel availability.
USA - Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
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 also complies with RTCA
specification DO-160D section 21.3 (conducted emissions) and section 21.4 (radiated emissions),
category M (modified for 2.4 GHz transmission frequency). RTCA specification DO-160D applies
to equipment installed and operated aboard aircraft. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy. If not installed and used in accordance with the instructions provided in this
manual and the applicable operating software operator’s manual, 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/installer is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
