Intel 3945ABG - Manual (Page 150)

Safety Notices for Other Devices in the Wireless Network: Refer to the documentation supplied with
wireless Ethernet adapters or other devices in the wireless network.
Local Restrictions on 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g Radio Usage
Caution: Due to the fact that the frequencies used by 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g wireless LAN devices
may not yet be harmonized in all countries, 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g products are designed for use only
in specific countries, and are not allowed to be operated in countries other than those of designated use. As a
user of these products, you are responsible for ensuring that the products are used only in the countries for
which they were intended and for verifying that they are configured with the correct selection of frequency and
channel for the country of use. The device transmit power control (TPC) interface is part of the Intel(R) PROSet/
Wireless software. Operational restrictions for Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) are provided by the
system manufacturer. Any deviation from the permissible power and frequency settings for the country of use is
an infringement of national law and may be punished as such.
For country-specific information, see the additional compliance information supplied with the product.
Wireless interoperability
The Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection adapter or the Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945BG Network
Connection are designed to be interoperable with other wireless LAN products that are based on direct sequence
spread spectrum (DSSS) radio technology and to comply with the following standards:
●
IEEE Std. 802.11b compliant Standard on Wireless LAN.
●
IEEE Std. 802.11g compliant Standard on Wireless LAN.
●
IEEE Std. 802.11a compliant Standard on Wireless LAN.
●
Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) certification, as defined by the WECA (Wireless Ethernet Compatibility Alliance).
The Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection or the Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945BG
Network Connection adapter and your health
The Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection adapter or the the Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945BG
Network Connection adapter, like other radio devices, emits radio frequency electromagnetic energy. The level of
energy emitted by this device, however, is less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by other wireless
devices such as mobile phones. The Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection adapter or the Intel(R)
PRO/Wireless 3945BG Network Connection adapter wireless device operates within the guidelines found in radio
frequency safety standards and recommendations. These standards and recommendations reflect the consensus
of the scientific community and result from deliberations of panels and committees of scientists who continually
review and interpret the extensive research literature. In some situations or environments, the use of the Intel
(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection adapter or the Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945BG Network
Connection wireless devices may be restricted by the proprietor of the building or responsible representatives of
the applicable organization. Examples of such situations include the following:
●
Using the Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection adapter or the Intel(R) PRO/Wireless
3945BG Network Connection adapter equipment on board airplanes, or
●
Using the Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection adapter or the Intel(R) PRO/Wireless
3945BG Network Connection adapter equipment in any other environment where the risk of interference
with other devices or services is perceived or identified as being harmful.
If you are uncertain of the policy that applies to the use of wireless devices in a specific organization or
environment (an airport, for example), you are encouraged to ask for authorization to use the Intel(R) PRO/
Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection adapter or the Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945BG Network Connection
wireless devices before you turn it on.
