Regulatory Compliance
FCC/ISED – Compliance
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 and ISED RSS standards.
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 receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
Warning
It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that when using the outdoor antenna kits, only those antennas certified with the product are used. The use of any antenna other than those certified with the product is expressly forbidden by FCC rules 47 CFR part 15.204 and ISED RSS standards.
Caution
Outdoor units and antennas should be installed ONLY by experienced installation professionals who are familiar with local building and safety codes and, wherever applicable, are licensed by the appropriate government regulatory authorities. Failure to do so may void the product warranty and may expose the end user or the service provider to legal and financial liabilities. Resellers or distributors of this equipment are not liable for injury, damage or violation of regulations associated with the installation of outdoor units or antennas. The installer should configure the output power level of antennas according to country regulations and antenna type.
Warning
The antennas used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a
separation distance of at least 201 cm from all persons
The module is granted to operate under FCC certification in the 5.1/5.8 GHz
bands.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules and with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
- This device may not cause harmful interference.
- This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Cet appareil numrique de la classe B est conforme la norme NMB-003 du Canada
Overview
The AP0260210 is an RF module operating in the 5.1 and 5.8 GHz frequency
bands. It is a TDD OFDM radio supporting 20 MHz, 40 MHz and 80 MHz channel
bandwidths. It is a 2×2 MIMO transceiver, with two RF interfaces capable of
toggling between them.
The MS RF module cannot work as a stand-alone device. It can operate and be
controlled only when installed in a host enclosure manufactured by RADWIN.
The MS RF module is certified as a limited modular approval type under the FCC
ID: Q3K-5XACMODMS. It is also certified under IC: 5100A-5XACMODMS for 5.8 GHz
band.
Condition of Use
The AP0260210 MS RF module is a proprietary radio interface and can only be connected to digital boards manufactured by RADWIN. The MS RF module is not for sale to the general public or for installation in hosts not manufactured by RADWIN.
FCC rules and ISED Regulation Restrictions
The host firmware is factory programmed to operate under the FCC rules and ISED regulation restrictions. The firmware is locked and inaccessible by any third party. As a result of the above the user interface allows both the installer and the user to control the host only within the boundaries of the regional restrictions.
Antennas
The AP0260210 MS RF module is certified with a wide range of antenna types covering both Point-to-Point and Point-to-Multipoint systems up to 31 dBi gain.
