Compliance Information Statement
EchoStar Technologies L.L.C., 94 Inverness Terrace East, Englewood CO., (303) 706-
4000, declares that: This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.This equipment has been tested and
found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can
be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and TV converter.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
TV converter is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Do not make changes or modifications to this equipment. This could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.
There are many devices that allow you to connect your antenna to your in-home
distribution system such as splitters, and amplifiers. The FCC requires that the
isolation between the antenna port and the network port of your system meet the
following:
• 80dB from 54 MHz to 216 MHz, at least
• 60dB from 216 MHz to 550 MHz and at least
• 55dB from 550 MHz to 806 MHz
Measuring the isolation of a device requires specialized equipment. In most cases, it is
easier to purchase a splitter or amplifier with the correctly specified isolation from your
local television retailer. The above requirements are extracted from 47CFR15.115. For
