Federal Communications Commission Notice
Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules and Regulations has
established Radio Frequency (RF) emission limits to provide an interference-free radio
frequency spectrum. Many electronic devices, including computers, generate RF energy
incidental to their intended function and are, therefore, covered by these rules. These
rules place computers and related peripheral devices into two classes, A and B, depending
upon their intended installation. Class A devices are those that may reasonably be
expected to be installed in a business or commercial environment. Class B devices are
those that may reasonably be expected to be installed in a residential environment (for
example, personal computers). The FCC requires devices in both classes to bear a label
indicating the interference potential of the device as well as additional operating
instructions for the user.
10.2.1 FCC Rating Label
The FCC rating label on the device shows the classification (A or B) of the equipment. Class
B devices have an FCC logo or ID on the label. Class A devices do not have an FCC logo or
ID on the label. After you determine the class of the device, refer to the corresponding
statement.
Class A Equipment
This
equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. 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. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be
required to correct the interference at personal expense.
