To ensure compliance with various national and international Electromagnetic Field (EMF) standards, the
system should only be operated with Cisco approved antennas and accessories.
This Device Meets International Guidelines for Exposure to Radio Waves
The IW9167I device includes a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for
exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) recommended by international guidelines.
The guidelines were developed by an independent scientific organization (ICNIRP) and include a substantial
safety margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
As such the systems are designed to be operated as to avoid contact with the antennas by the end user. It is
recommended to set the system in a location where the antennas can remain at least a minimum distance as
specified from the user in accordance to the regulatory guidelines which are designed to reduce the overall
exposure of the user or operator.
RF Exposure Distance
20 cm
The World Health Organization has stated that present scientific information does not indicate the need for
any special precautions for the use of wireless devices. They recommend that if you are interested in further
reducing your exposure then you can easily do so by reorienting antennas away from the user or placing he
antennas at a greater separation distance then recommended.
This Device Meets FCC Guidelines for Exposure to Radio Waves
The IW9167I device includes a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for
exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) as referenced in FCC Part 1.1310. The
guidelines are based on IEEE ANSI C 95.1 (92) and include a substantial safety margin designed to ensure
the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
As such the systems are designed to be operated as to avoid contact with the antennas by the end user. It is
recommended to set the system in a location where the antennas can remain at least a minimum distance as
specified from the user in accordance to the regulatory guidelines which are designed to reduce the overall
exposure of the user or operator.
The device has been tested and found compliant with the applicable regulations as part of the radio certification
process.
