This Class A Digital apparatus meets all the requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations.

This device complies with Class A Limits of Industry Canada. 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.

Cisco® Catalyst IR1800 Rugged Series Router are certified to the requirements of RSS-247. The use of this device in a system operating either partially or completely outdoors may require the user to obtain a license for the system according to the Canadian regulations. For further information, contact your local Industry Canada office.

This device has been designed to operate with antennas having a maximum gain of 8 dBi. Antennas having a gain greater than 8 dBi are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.

To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotopically radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that permitted for successful communication.

Operation in the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor use to reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems.

Users are advised that high-power radars are allocated as primary users (i.e. priority users) of the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and that these radars could cause interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices.

This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). 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.

The following standards are applied:

• ETSI EN 301 489-1 V2.2.3; EN 301 489 - 17 v3.2.4

• Draft ETSI EN 301 489-19 V2.2.0 (2020-09)

The product carries the CE mark:

Cisco products are designed to comply with the following national and international standards on human exposure to RF:

• US 47 Code of Federal Regulations Part 2 Subpart J

• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers / IEEE C 95.1

• International Commission on Non Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)

• Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits on Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Fields in the range from 3kHz to 300 GHz

Note	To ensure compliance with various national and international Electromagnetic Field (EMF) standards, the system should only be operated with Cisco-approved antennas and accessories.

The IR1800 Series device includes a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed to not exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) recommended by international guidelines. The guidelines were developed by an independent scientific organization (ICNIRP) and include a substantial safety margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

As such the systems are designed to be operated as to avoid contact with the antennas by the end user. We recommended that you set the system in a location where the antennas can remain at least at a minimum distance, as specified, from a user in accordance with the regulatory guidelines that are designed to reduce the overall exposure to a user or operator.

The World Health Organization has stated that present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for the use of wireless devices. They recommend that if you are interested in further reducing your exposure, then you can easily do so by reorienting antennas away from users, or by placing he antennas at a greater distance than recommended.

The IR1800 Series device includes a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed to not exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) as referenced in FCC Part 1.1310. The guidelines are based on IEEE ANSI C 95.1 and include a substantial safety margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

As such the systems are designed to be operated so as to avoid contact with the antennas by the end user. We recommend that you set the system in a location where the antennas can remain at least at a minimum distance, as specified, from a user in accordance with the regulatory guidelines that are designed to reduce the overall exposure to a user or operator.

The device has been tested and found compliant with the applicable regulations as part of the radio certification process.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has stated that present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for the use of wireless devices. The FCC recommends that if you are interested in further reducing your exposure, you can easily do so by reorienting antennas away from users, or by placing the antennas at a greater distance than recommended, or by lowering the transmitter power output.

Note

As per FCC ECFR 2.1091 and 2.1093 exempt criteria, single transmissions are exempted from the RF Exposure calculation. The calculation consideres 100 percent of the duty cycle for all simultaneous transmission technology. The RF Exposure Calculation is done without compensating cable and connector losses. The RF Exposure calculation is performed with the highest supported antenna gain.

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 30cm between the radiator and your body.
