Radio frequency Interference Requirements

The operation of this device in the 5.15 GHz to 5.25 GHz frequency range is restricted to indoor use. FCC regulations require this product to be used indoors while operating at 5.15 GHz to 5.25 GHz to reduce the potential for harmful interference. However, the operation of this device in the 5.25 GHz to 5.35 GHz frequency range is allowed for both indoor and outdoor use. High power radars are allocated as primary users of the 5.25 GHz to 5.35 GHz and 5.65 GHz to 5.85 GHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference with and/or damage to this device.

FCC Warning

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. No guarantee exists that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception (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 radio/TV receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the radio/TV receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the radio/TV receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Modifications made to the product, unless expressly approved by SilverNet Limited, could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

RF Exposure Requirements

To ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, the antenna used for this device must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or radio transmitter. Installers and end-users must follow the installation instructions provided in this user guide.

SILVERNET

CE Statement

The Pro Range 95 is intended to be used by suitably trained individuals or organisations that are familiar with the requirements of the R&TTE directive. In particular the client must ensure that appropriate antennas and transmit power levels are selected to ensure that all power limits are met. Hereby, SilverNet Limited declares that this device is in compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of the R&TTE Directive 1999/5/EC. However, the use of the following warning symbol

Means that this equipment is subject to restrictions of use in certain countries and selection of the correct country of operation (country code) will ensure that the device operates only on the frequencies permissible within that country. It is also the operator's responsibility to ensure that appropriate licenses have been sought when operating on licensed frequencies, for example UK Band C, 5725-5850 MHz

Network Mode

- Mode: The device supports 3 different network modes Bridge Mode, SOHO Router Mode and WISP Mode.

A brief introduction to those modes:

1. Bridge Mode: Bridge Mode is a 2-layer network mode. The unit ETH port and wireless interface are working at layer-2.
2. SOHO Router Mode: This mode is typically a network router mode. The ETH port works as a WAN interface by connecting it to another network via an ETH port such as the Internet or personal network.

NOTE

The network mode can only be set as SOHO Router Mode when the unit is in AP Mode or AP WDS Mode.

1. WISP Mode: This mode is opposite to the SOHO Router mode. It uses the wireless interface as a WAN to connect to a public network and the ETH port operates as a 2-layer access port.

NOTE

The network mode can only be set as WISP Mode when the unit is in Station Mode or Station WDS Mode.
