Low power, Radio transmitter type devices (radio frequency (RF) wireless communication devices),
operating in the 2.4 GHz band and/or 5.15 – 5.35 GHz band, may be present (embedded) in your
computer system. This section is only applicable if these devices are present. Refer to the system
label to verify the presence of wireless devices.
Wireless devices that may be in your system are only qualified for use in Canada if an Industry
Canada ID number is on the system label.
As a general guideline, a separation of 20 cm (8 inches) between the wireless device and the body
(including bystanders), for use of a wireless device near the body (this does not include extremities)
is typical. This device should be used more than 20 cm (8 inches) from the body when wireless
devices are on. The power output of the wireless device (or devices), which may be embedded in
your computer, is well below the RF exposure limits as set by Industry Canada.
Additionally, your system may have an optional wireless keyboard and mouse included with it.
The power and frequency range associated with these devices do not have the same RF exposure
concerns as previously commented on with the wireless LAN products. The experts on the effects
of RF exposure feel these types of devices are safe for use, due to the frequencies and power levels
involved.
The wireless keyboard and mouse operate at less than 10mW for all channels. The keyboard
operates at 27.145 or 27.195 MHz and the mouse operates at 26.995 or 27.045 MHz.
Operation of this device 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 of the device.
Warning
To prevent radio interference to licensed service or
co-channel Mobile Satellite systems, this device is
intended to be operated indoors and away from windows
to provide maximum shielding. Equipment (or its transmit
antenna) that is installed outdoors is subject to licensing.
Warning
Wireless devices are not user serviceable. Do not modify
them in any way. Modification to a wireless device will void
the authorization to use it. Contact Gateway for service.
Warning
The transmitting device embedded in this system may not
be used with any antenna other than that provided with the
system.
