Class A Notice for FCC

Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s authorization may result in the equipment no longer complying with FCC requirements for Class A digital devices. In such an event, your right to use the equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct any interference to radio or television communications at your own expense.

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. 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 equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits of 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 residential environment. This equipment generates, uses, and radiates radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to correct the interference by one of the following measures:

  • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

  • Increase separation between the equipment and receiver.

  • Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from which the receiver is connected.

  • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician.


Caution
The Part 15 radio device operates on a noninterference basis with other devices operating at this frequency when using the integrated antennas. Any changes or modification to the product not expressly approved by Cisco could void the user's authority to operate this device.

This Device Meets International Guidelines for Exposure to Radio Waves

The IR1101 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.

This Device Meets FCC Guidelines for Exposure to Radio Waves

The IR1101 Series device includes a radio transmitter and receiver.

Changing Output Power

Changing the power output is allowed only by a trained service professional.

Antennas

The Cisco Catalyst 1101 Rugged Router is a next generation modular industrial router which has a base module with additional pluggable modules that can be added. The plug-in module is referred to as the Pluggable Interface Module (PIM), or the pluggable. The pluggable provides the flexibility of adding different interfaces to the IR1101 platform, for example, a cellular module. These modules are equipped with antenna connectors to allow the use of dedicated (external) antennas available from Cisco.

The following link to the data sheet lists the antennas that can be used by IR1101. All antennas where assessed together with the equipment against the requirements of the R&TTE directive.

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/routers/1101-industrial-integrated-services-router/datasheet-c78-741709.html

Depending on the country a different regulatory limit might be applicable. It is therefore the responsibility of the end user to select a power level that, together with the antenna, results in an eirp (radiated power) level that is below the applicable limit.


Note
The antenna gain mentioned does not include the cable loss.
