FCC Requirements

8.2.1 Modification Voids Compliance Warning

Warning: Changes or modifications to the AL5705 not expressly approved by Alereon can void the your warranty and place the AL5705 outside FCC

equipment authorization.

8.2.2 Electromagnetic Interference Control

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) is any signal or emission, radiated in free space or conducted along power or signal leads, which endangers the function

of radio navigation or other safety services (telephones and cellphones are considered to be safety services), or seriously degrades, obstructs, or repeatedly

interrupts a licensed radio communications service. Radio communications services include but are not limited to: AM/FM commercial broadcast, television,

cellular services, radar, air traffic control, pagers, and personal communications services (PCS). These licensed services, along with unintentional radiators

such as digital devices, including computer systems, contribute to the electromagnetic environment.

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) is the ability of items of electronic equipment to function properly together in the electromagnetic environment. While

the AL5705 PCIe ExpressCard has been designed and determined to be compliant with regulatory agency limits for EMI, there is no guarantee that

interference will not occur in a particular installation. If it does cause interference with radio communications services, which can be determined by turning

the device on and off, you are encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

•

Reorient the receiving antenna

•

Relocate the device with respect to the victim receiver

•

Move the device away from the victim receiver

•

Plug the device host into a different power outlet than the victim receiver so that the device system and receiver are on separate branch circuits

If necessary, consult your system service representative or an experienced radio/television technician for additional help in resolving interference.
