FEDERAL COMMUNICATION COMMISSION INTERFERENCE STATEMENT
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 of the following measures:

  • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
  • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
  • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
  • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Professional installation is required for this device.

FCC CAUTION
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
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.

FCC Statement
For product available in the USA/Canada market, only channel 1-11 can be operated. Selection of other channels is not possible.
For W2000-5GB (Model S5A103A)
Operation on the 5150-5250 MHz WiFi radios is restricted to indoor use only.
For W2005-5GB (Model S5A108A)
Because this device is intended to be used outdoors, operation on the 5150-5250 MHz WiFi radio is permanently disabled.

FCC Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 38 cm between the radiator and your body.
This device and its antennas(s) must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter except in accordance with
FCC multi-transmitter product procedures.
To comply with FCC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and human exposure to RF radiation, the maximum cellular antenna gain must not exceed as below:

Antenna Net Gain(c1B0 Frequency range
2.5 700-960 MHz
2.2 1428-1600 MHz
4.3 1700-2700 MHz
4.6 3300–3700 MHz

SAFETY AND HAZARDS
Caution!! Read the following instructions before use.
Only use with original Cradlepoint accessories. Cradlepoint external power adapters are specially designed to operate properly with this device.
Under no circumstances should the device be used in any areas
(a) where blasting is in progress,
(b) where explosive atmospheres may be present, or
(c) that are near (i) medical or life support equipment, or (ii) any equipment which may be susceptible to any form of radio interference.
In such areas, the device MUST BE POWERED OFF AT ALL TIMES (since the device otherwise could transmit signals that might interfere with such equipment).

In addition, under no circumstances should the device be used in any aircraft, regardless of whether the aircraft is on the ground or in flight. In any aircraft, the device MUST BE POWERED OFF AT ALL TIMES since the device otherwise could transmit signals that might interfere with various onboard systems on such aircraft. Furthermore, under no circumstances should the device be used by the driver or operator of any vehicle. Such use of the device will detract from the driver’s or operator’s control of that vehicle. In some jurisdictions, use of the device while driving or operating a vehicle constitutes a civil and/or criminal offense.
