Special notes on safety for wireless routers
Digi International products are designed to the highest standards of safety and international standards 
compliance for the markets in which they are sold. However, cellular-based products contain radio devices 
which require specic consideration. Please take the time to read and understand the following guidance. Digi 
International assumes no liability for an end user’s failure to comply with these precautions.
Wireless  routers  incorporate  a  wireless  radio  module.  Users  should  ensure  that  the 
antenna(s) is (are) positioned at least 1 meter away from themselves and other persons 
in normal operation.
When in a hospital or other health care facility, observe the restrictions on the use of 
mobile phones. Do not use the unit in areas where guidelines posted in sensitive areas 
instruct users to switch off mobile phones. Medical equipment may be sensitive to RF 
energy.
The operation of cardiac pacemakers, other implanted medical equipment and hearing 
aids can be affected by interference from cellular terminals such as the wireless routers 
when places close to the device. If in doubt about potential danger, contact the physician 
or  the  manufacturer  of  the  device  to  verify  that  the  equipment  is  properly  shielded. 
Pacemaker patients are advised to keep the wireless router away from the pacemaker 
while it is on.
Wireless routers must NOT be operated on aircraft. The operation of wireless appliances 
in an aircraft is forbidden to prevent interference with communications systems. Failure 
to observe these instructions may lead to the suspension or denial of cellular services to 
the offender, legal action, or both. 
As with any electrical equipment, do not operate the unit in the presence of ammable 
gases, fumes or potentially explosive atmospheres. Radio devices should not be used 
anywhere that blasting operations are taking place.
Wireless routers receive and transmit radio frequency energy when power is on. 
Interference can occur if used close to TV sets, radios, computers or inadequately 
shielded equipment. Follow any special regulations and always power off your unit 
wherever forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger. 
SOS IMPORTANT! - Wireless routers operate using radio signals and cellular networks 
cannot be guaranteed to connect in all possible conditions. Therefore, never rely solely 
upon any wireless device for life critical communications.
