Antenna spacing requirements for user safety

It is important to keep the radio's antenna a safe distance from the user. To meet the requirements of FCC part

2.1091 for radio frequency radiation exposure, this radio must be used in such a way as to guarantee at least 20 cm

between the antenna and users. Greater distances are required for high-gain antennas. The FCC requires a

minimum distance of 1 mW *cm2 power density from the user (or 20 cm, whichever is greater).

If a specific application requires proximity of less than 20 cm, the application must be approved through the FCC for

compliance to part 2.1093.

The installer of this radio equipment must ensure that the antenna is located or pointed in such a way that it does not

emit RF fields in excess of Health Canada limits for the general population; refer to Safety Code 6, obtainable from

Health Canada.

To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the

equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that required for successful communication.

F Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant

to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful

interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and

can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may

cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to

cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

G This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: The

device may not cause harmful interference, and it must accept any interference received, including interference

that may cause undesired operation.

H This Class A digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.

I Cet appareil numérique de la classe A est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.

J CAUTION: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority

to operate the equipment.

European CE certification

The radio modem has been approved for operation under the RTT&E directive, passing the following tests: ETS300-

826 (EMC), ETS300-328 (Functionality), and EN60950 (Safety).

The following is the appropriate label that is applied to the radio modem product line to indicate the unit is approved

to operate with CE certification:

Note: Member states in the EU with restrictive use for this device are crossed out. This device is also authorized for

use in all EFTA member states (CH, ICE, LI, and NOR).

IMPORTANT: This device is a 2.4-GHz, low-power RF device intended for office and home use in all EU and EFTA

member states, except in France where restrictive use applies.

EU Requirements

1. For outdoor use, France has a frequency restriction of 2.4GHz - 2.454GHz for an output power greater than 10mW

and below 100mW.

2. For outdoor use in France, the output power is restricted to 10mW in the frequency range of 2.454GHz –

2.4835GHz.

3. 5.15GHz – 5.35GHz is restricted to 200mW EIRP throughout the European Union.

RLXIB: Power over Ethernet Injector and Accessories Warning

The PoE Injector was not a part of the hazardous location or ATEX certification. Therefore, if an injector is used to

power any of the radios, the PoE injector must be installed/located outside of any area that could be known to be

hazardous. The AC power adaptor was not a part of the haz loc certification.

The RLXIB series were tested and certified to hazardous location and ATEX without any accessories included in this

certification. Therefore, any accessory added to the RLXIB series radios must be used in an area known to be non-

hazardous as they have not been subjected to hazardous location and ATEX certifications.

The preferred method of powering the radios is using the supplied power adaptor but If the PoE injector is used in an

ordinary location "only", the PoE injector must be Listed. If the PoE injector is used instead of the supplied power

adaptor, all of the wiring to and from the injector must be routed/installed inside building/plant and never

routed/installed outside of the building/plant.

Locations & Use

The Industrial HotSpot radios, such as the RLXIB-IHW are used by professionals in Industrial

Applications/installations only and not used by the general consumer. These industrial radios are used for industrial

applications such as, water treatment facilities, power plants, factories, railroads, remote oil/gas pipelines, refineries,

cargo ships, refueling ships etc….and used for wireless high speed data transmission.All radios are installed and

used by professionals in restricted areas.
