Operation using the 2.400 to 2.4835 GHz channels in the European Community
The professional installer should use the configuration utility provided with this product to verify the current
channel of operation, the expected transmit power level, and to confirm that the device is operating in
conformance with the spectrum usage rules for the selected European Community country. If operation is
occurring outside of the allowable channels as indicated in this guide, then operation of the product must cease
immediately and the installer must consult with the local technical support staff responsible for the wireless
network.
This device is intended to be operated in all countries of the European Community. Additional restrictions of
use for the 2330A/2330B access point within the European Community countries in the 2.400 to 2.4835 GHz
band are listed below.
• The frequencies associated with channels 1 to 13 in the 2.400 to 2.4835 GHz band are allowed to be used
either indoors or outdoors in all countries of the European Community, except where noted in the
Outdoor Operation Section.
The 2330A/2330B, whether using the internal or approved external antennas, is guaranteed to meet this limit
by automatically adjusting the transmit power level through the operating software depending upon the gain of
the selected antenna.
Operation using the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz, 5.25 to 5.35 GHz,
and 5.470 to 5.725 GHz channels in the European Community
To remain in conformance with European National spectrum usage laws, follow the channel limitations
associated with the 5 GHz bands as specified in this document. The professional installer should verify the
current channel of operation and the expected transmit power level of the WLAN Access Point 2330A/2330B
to confirm that the device is operating in conformance with the spectrum usage rules for the European
Community country where the unit is being installed. If operation is occurring outside of the allowable
frequencies or above the power levels, as indicated in this guide, then operation of the product must cease
immediately and the installer must consult with the local technical support staff responsible for the wireless
network.
This device is intended to be operated in all countries of the European Community. Additional restrictions of
use for the 2330A/2330B access point within the European Community countries in the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz,
