Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection
Information for the User
Safety Notices
The FCC with its action in ET Docket 96-8 has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF)
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC certified equipment. The Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection meets
the Human Exposure limits found in OET Bulletin 65, 2001, and ANSI/IEEE C95.1, 1992. Proper operation of this radio
according to the instructions found in this manual will result in exposure substantially below the FCC’s recommended limits.
The following safety precautions should be observed:
● Do not touch or move antenna while the unit is transmitting or receiving.
● Do not hold any component containing the radio such that the antenna is very close or touching 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; this behavior may cause
damage to the radio.
● Use in specific environments:
❍ The use of wireless devices in hazardous locations is limited by the constraints posed by the safety directors of
such environments.
❍ The use of wireless devices on airplanes is governed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
❍ The use of wireless devices in hospitals is restricted to the limits set forth by each hospital.
Antenna Use
● In order to comply with FCC RF exposure limits, low gain integrated antennas should be located at a minimum
distance of 20 cm (8 inches) or more from the body of all persons.
● High-gain, wall-mount, or mast-mount antennas are designed to be professionally installed and should be located at
a minimum distance of 30 cm (12 inches) or more from the body of all persons. Please contact your professional
installer, VAR, or antenna manufacturer for proper installation requirements.
Explosive Device Proximity Warning
Warning: Do not operate a portable transmitter (such as a wireless network device) near unshielded blasting caps or
in an explosive environment unless the device has been modified to be qualified for such use.
Antenna Warnings
Warning: To comply with the FCC and ANSI C95.1 RF exposure limits, it is recommended that when the Intel(R) PRO/
Wireless 2200BG Network Connection adapter is installed in a desktop or portable computer, the antenna for this device be
installed so as to provide a separation distance of al least 20 cm (8 inches) from all persons. It is recommended that the
user limit exposure time if the antenna is positioned closer than 20 cm (8 inches).
Warning: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless LAN products are not designed for use with high-gain directional antennas. Use of
such antennas with these products in a manner other than as described in the previous section titled, “Antenna Use” is
illegal.
Use On Aircraft Caution
Caution: Regulations of the FCC and FAA prohibit airborne operation of radio-frequency wireless devices because their
signals could interfere with critical aircraft instruments.
Local Restrictions on 802.11b and 802.11g Radio Usage
All frequencies used by 802.11b and 802.11g are harmonized. Some countries though may not allow 802.11g.
