Installation of two access point HWICs in the router is not supported. • The access point HWIC must be installed in an HWIC slot. To determine which slots on your platform support HWICs, see the "Platform Slot Numbering and Limitations for Cisco Interface Cards" section on page 8. • The 4.9-GHz band is not supported. • Although the use of two antennas is not required, both antennas should be used to take advantage of diversity for the best RF performance. Access Point HWIC Safety Guidelines and Warnings The following are guidelines for wireless access devices: • Do not touch or move antenna(s) while the unit is transmitting or receiving. • Do not hold any component containing a radio so that the antenna is very close to or touching any exposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting. • The use of wireless devices in hazardous locations is limited to the constraints posed by the local codes, the national codes, and the safety directors of such environments. Note For regulatory information about the access point HWIC, see the Declarations of Conformity and Regulatory Information for Cisco Access Products with 802.11a/b/g and 802.11b/g Radios document. Warning Before working on a chassis or working near power supplies, unplug the power cord on AC units; disconnect the power at the circuit breaker on DC units. Statement 12 OL-12854-01 3
