Chapter 2 Tropos Routers Installation Guide, Models 6410 and 6420 36Safety and Servicing InformationThis section contains safety and servicing information.RF Exposure InformationThe Federal Communications Commission (FCC) with its action in ET Docket 96-8 has adopteda safety standard for human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC certifiedequipment. The Tropos 6410 and 6420 routers meet the uncontrolled environmental limits foundin OET-65 and ANSI C95.1, 1991. Proper operation of this device according to the instructionsfound in this manual and the hardware and software guides on the router results in user exposurethat is substantially below the FCC recommended limits.In order to meet the human RF exposure limits required by FCC and Industry Canada, theinstaller shall insure separation between transmitter antennas. All persons should maintain aminimum distance from the router as specified in Table 6.WarningIt is illegal to modify the construction of this product. Modifying the operating frequency or enhancing the transmit outputpower through the use of external amplifiers or other equipment is specifically disallowed by the “Telecommunications Act.”WarningThis device is for outdoor or indoor use with conditions that no harmful interference to authorized radio stations results fromthe operation of this device. This device shall not influence aircraft security and/or interfere with legal communications asdefined in the “Telecommunications Act.” If this device is found to cause interference, the operator of this equipment shallcease operating this device immediately until no interference is achieved.Safety GuidelinesFollow these guidelines to ensure safe operation of the router: Do not touch or move the antennas while the unit is transmitting or receiving. Do not hold any component containing a radio such that the antenna is very close to ortouching any 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;otherwise, the radio may be damaged.TABLE 6 RF Exposure InformationModel Radios, RF Band Antennas Maximum EIRP Minimum Distance6410 Single 2.4 GHz Internal 2.4 GHz EIRP, 34.5 dBm 20 cm (8 in)6420 Dual 2.4 GHz/5.8GHzInternal 2.4 GHz EIRP, 34.5 dBm5.8 GHz EIRP, 34 dBm22 cm (9 in)
