LINKSYS MR5500 Dual-Band Mesh WiFi 6 Router
FCC Statement
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 product has been tested and complies with the specifications 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 according to 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 is found 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 devices
- Connect the equipment to an outlet other than the receiver’s
- Consult a dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for assistance
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. IEEE 802.11b or 802.11g operation of this product in the USA
is firmware-limited to channels 1 through 11. The device for the band
5150-5250 / 5725-5850 MHz is only for indoor usage.
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 35 cm between the radiator and your body.
This device and it’s 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.
Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada Statement
CAN ICES-003 (B)/NMB-003 (B)
This device complies with ISED’s license-exempt RSS standards. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including
interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. For products
available in the USA/Canada market, only channel 1~11 can be operated.
Selection of other channels is not possible.
The device could automatically discontinue transmission in case of the absence
of information to transmit or operational failure. Note that this is not
intended to prohibit transmission of control or signaling information or the
use of repetitive codes where required by the technology.
Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada Radiation Exposure
Statement
This equipment complies with ISED radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with
a minimum distance 35 cm between the radiator & your body. This device and
it’s antennas(s) must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter except in accordance with ISED multi-transmitter
product procedures.
Restrictions in the 5 GHz Band
The device for the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor usage to reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems. This device has been designed to operate with an antenna having a maximum gain of 4.00 dBi and 2.98 dBi at 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz respectively. Antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per regulations of ISED. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms. The maximum antenna gain (Please see the table below) permitted (for devices in the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5470-5725 MHz) to comply with the EIRP limit and the maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the band 5725-5850 MHz shall be such that the equipment still complies with the EIRP limits specified for point-to-point and non-point-to-point operation as appropriate because high power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority) in 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz, these radars could cause interference and/or damage to license-exempt LAN devices. The worst-case tilt angle(s) necessary to remain compliant with the e.i.r.p. elevation mask requirement set forth in Section 6.2.2(3) shall be clearly indicated.
No.
| Antenna Type| For 2.4 GHz Gain (dBi)| For 5 GHz Gain (dBi)| Antenna
Connector
---|---|---|---|---
1| Dipole| 2.52| 2.98| I-PEX (MHF)
2| Dipole| 2.52| 2.65| I-PEX (MHF)
3| Dipole| N/A| 2.91| I-PEX (MHF)
4| Dipole| N/A| 2.98| I-PEX (MHF)
5| Metal| 4.00| N/A| N/A
Additional requirements for the band 5600-5650 MHz
Until further notice, devices subject to this Section shall not be capable of transmitting in the band 5600-5650 MHz, so that Environment Canada weather radars operating in this band are protected.
Wireless Disclaimer
The maximum performance for wireless is derived from IEEE Standard 802.11
specifications. Actual performance can vary, including lower wireless network
capacity, data throughput rate, range and coverage. Performance depends on
many factors, conditions and variables, including distance from the access
point, the volume of network traffic, building materials and construction,
operating system used, mix of wireless products used, interference and other
adverse conditions.
Safety Notices
WARNING: Do not use this product near water, for example, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool.
