Cisco WAP200 Administration Guide - Page 16

Chapter 1 Introduction Chapter 1 Health information The WAP-200, like other radio devices, emits radio frequency electromagnetic energy. The level of energy emitted by the WAP-200 is much less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by other wireless devices, such as mobile phones. Because the WAP-200 operates within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations, Colubris Networks believes that the WAP-200 is safe for use by consumers. These standards and recommendations reflect the consensus of the scientific community and result from deliberations of panels and committees of scientists who continually review and interpret the extensive research literature. In some situations or environments, use of the WAP-200 may be restricted by a proprietor of a building or responsible representatives of an organization. For example, these situations may include using the WAP-200 • On board airplanes • In any other environment where the risk of interference to other devices or services is perceived or identified as harmful If you are uncertain about the policy that applies to the use of wireless devices in a specific organization or environment-for example, airports-you are encouraged to ask for authorization to use the WAP-200 prior to turning it on. 16
