Dell™ computers are designed, tested, and classified for their intended electromagnetic 
environment. These electromagnetic environment classifications generally refer to the 
following harmonized definitions:
•
Class A is typically for business or industrial environments.
•
Class B is typically for residential environments.
Information Technology Equipment (ITE), including devices, expansion cards, printers, 
input/output (I/O) devices, monitors, and so on, that are integrated into or connected to the 
computer should match the electromagnetic environment classification of the computer.
A Notice About Shielded Signal Cables: Use only shielded cables for connecting devices to 
any Dell device to reduce the possibility of interference with radio communications 
services. Using shielded cables ensures that you maintain the appropriate Electromagnetic 
Compatibility classification for the intended environment. Cables are available from Dell 
at www.dell.com. 
Most Dell computers are classified for Class B environments. However, the inclusion of 
certain options can change the rating of some configurations to Class A. To determine the 
electromagnetic classification for your computer or device, see the following sections specific 
for each regulatory agency. Each section provides country-specific Electromagnetic 
Compatibility/EMI or product safety information.
FCC Notices (U.S. Only)
Most Dell computer systems are classified by the Federal Communications Commission 
(FCC) as Class B digital devices. To determine which classification applies to your computer 
system, examine all FCC registration labels located on the bottom, side, or back panel of 
your computer, on card-mounting brackets, and on the cards themselves. If any one of the 
labels carries a Class A rating, your entire system is considered to be a Class A digital device. 
If 
all labels carry an FCC Class B rating as distinguished by either an FCC ID number or the
FCC logo, (
), your system is considered to be a Class B digital device.
Once you have determined your system’s FCC classification, read the appropriate 
FCC notice. Note that FCC regulations provide that changes or modifications not expressly 
approved by Dell could void your authority to operate this equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following 
two conditions:
•
This device may not cause harmful interference.
•
This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may 
cause undesired operation.
