Appendix B. Wireless Related Information
Wireless Interoperability
Wireless LAN Mini-PCI Adapter is designed to be interoperable with any
wireless LAN product that is based on Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum
(DSSS) radio technology, and is compliant to:
v
The IEEE 802.11 Standard on Wireless LANs (Revision B), as defined and
approved by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
v
The Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) certification as defined by the WECA (Wireless
Ethernet Compatibility Alliance).
Usage environment and your Health
Wireless LAN Mini-PCI Adapter emits radio frequency electromagnetic energy
like other radio devices. However, the level of energy emitted is far less than
the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices like, for example,
mobile phones.
Because Wireless LAN Mini-PCI Adapter operates within the guidelines found
in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations, IBM believes High
Rate Wireless LAN is safe for use by consumers. These standards and
recommendations reflect the consensus of the scientific community and the
result from deliberations of panels and committees of scientists who
continually review and interpret the extensive research literature.
In some situations or environments, the use of High Rate Wireless LAN may
be restricted by the proprietor of the building or responsible representatives of
the organization. These situations may, for example, include:
v
Using High Rate Wireless LAN on board of airplanes, or in hospitals
v
In any other environment where the risk of interference to other devices or
services is perceived or identified as harmful.
If you are uncertain of the policy that applies to the use of wireless devices in
a specific organization (e.g. airport, hospital), you are encouraged to ask for
authorization to use Wireless LAN Mini-PCI Adapter prior to turning on the
ThinkPad R32 computer.
