Notices
The unit is intended for installation in Environment A as defined in IEEE 802.3.af. All
interconnected equipment must be contained within the same building, including the
interconnected equipment's associated LAN connection.
Suitable for use in environmental air space in accordance with Section 300-22(c) of
the National Electrical Code, and Sections 2-128, 12-010(3) and 12-100 of the Cana-
dian Electrical Code, Part 1, C22.1.
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement
Radio Frequency Interference Requirements
Interference Statement
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.
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 installa-
tion. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy. If the
equipment is not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, the equip-
ment may cause harmful interference to radio communications. There is no guar-
antee, however, that such interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception
Caution!
The radiated output power of the Meru Networks devices is well below the FCC
radio frequency exposure limits. However, the Access Point should be used in
such a manner that the potential for human contact during normal operation is
minimized. When installing and operating these devices, keep a minimum
distance of 20 cm (8 inches) between the antennas and any persons/users in the
vicinity.
Note:
Meru Access Points
All devices except the OAP180 are indoor devices. The FCC requires indoor use for
the frequency range 5.15 GHz to 5.25 GHz to reduce the potential for harmful
interference to co-channel Mobile Satellite systems.
High-power radars are allocated as primary users of the 5.25 to 5.35 GHz and 5.65
to 5.85 GHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference with or damage to
these devices, or both.
