exposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting.
● Do not operate the radio or attempt to transmit data unless the antenna is connected; if not, the
radio may be damaged.
● Use in specific environments:
❍ The use of wireless devices in hazardous locations is limited by the constraints posed by
the safety directors of such environments.
❍ The use of wireless devices on airplanes is governed by the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA).
❍ The use of wireless devices in hospitals is restricted to the limits set forth by each
hospital.
● Antenna use:
❍ In order to comply with FCC RF exposure limits, low gain integrated antennas should be
located at a minimum distance of 20 cm (8 inches) or more from the body of all persons.
❍ High-gain, wall-mount, or mast-mount antennas are designed to be professionally
installed and should be located at a minimum distance of 30 cm (12 inches) or more from
the body of all persons. Please contact your professional installer, VAR, or antenna
manufacturer for proper installation requirements.

Explosive Device Proximity Warning
Warning: Do not operate a portable transmitter (such as a wireless network device) near unshielded
blasting caps or in an explosive environment unless the device has been modified to be qualified for such use.
Antenna Warnings
Warning: To comply with the FCC and ANSI C95.1 RF exposure limits, it is recommended for the
Intel(R) PRO/Wireless LAN 2100A 3B Mini PCI Adapter installed in a desktop or portable computer, that the
antenna for this device be installed so as to provide a separation distance of al least 20 cm (8 inches) from all
persons and that the antenna must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
radio transmitter. It is recommended that the user limit exposure time if the antenna is positioned closer than
20 cm (8 inches).
Warning: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Connection products are not designed for use with
high-gain directional antennas. Use of such antennas with these products is illegal.
Use On Aircraft Caution
Caution: Regulations of the FCC and FAA prohibit airborne operation of radio-frequency wireless
devices because their signals could interfere with critical aircraft instruments.
