CISCO CONFIDENTIAL_Draft 1THE SPECIFICATIONS AND INFORMATION REGARDING THE PRODUCTS IN THIS MANUAL ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. ALL STATEMENTS, INFORMATION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS IN THIS MANUAL ARE BELIEVED TO BE ACCURATE BUT ARE PRESENTED WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. USERS MUST TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR APPLICATION OF ANY PRODUCTS.THE SOFTWARE LICENSE AND LIMITED WARRANTY FOR THE ACCOMPANYING PRODUCT ARE SET FORTH IN THE INFORMATION PACKET THAT SHIPPED WITH THE PRODUCT AND ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY THIS REFERENCE. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE SOFTWARE LICENSE OR LIMITED WARRANTY, CONTACT YOUR CISCO REPRESENTATIVE FOR A COPY.The following information is for FCC compliance of Class A devices: 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 instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required to correct the interference at their own expense. The following information is for FCC compliance of Class B devices: The equipment described in this manual generates and may radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed in accordance with Cisco’s installation instructions, it may cause interference with radio and television reception. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in part 15 of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s written authorization may result in the equipment no longer complying with FCC requirements for Class A or Class B digital devices. In that 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.You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:• Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.• Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.• Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.• Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.) Modifications to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.

CISCO CONFIDENTIAL_Draft 15-2Channels and Maximum Power Settings for Cisco Aironet Access Points and Bridges OL--11142-01Chapter 5 Cisco Aironet 1240AG Series Access Points Channels and Power Settings for Autonomous Access PointsChannels and Power Settings for Autonomous Access PointsThis section lists the 1100 series autonomous access point (AIR-AP1242AG-x-K9) IEEE 802.11b/g (2.4-GHz) and the IEEE 802.11a (5-GHz) channels and maximum power levels supported by the world’s regulatory domains. Channels and Maximum Power Levels IEEE 802.11b/g (2.4-GHz Band)When shipped from the factory, the 1240 series access points support the channels and maximum power levels listed in Table 5-1 for their regulatory domain.

Changing Access Point Output PowerThis section provides instructions for changing the 1100 series access point output power to comply with the maximum power limits imposed by special regulatory and country restrictions (see the“Maximum Power Levels in Some Regulatory Domains with External Antennas” section on page 5-4 and the “Special Country Restrictions” section on page 5-6). Note Administrator privileges may be required in order to change access point settings.Caution To meet regulatory restrictions, the access point and the external antenna must be professionally installed. The network administration or other IT professional responsible for installing and configuring the unit is a suitable professional installer. Following configuration, access to the unit should be password protected by the network administrator to maintain regulatory compliance.To change the access point output power level, follow these instructions:Step 1 Use your web-browser to access your access point.Step 2 When the Summary Status page displays, click Radio0-802.11G or Radio0-802.11A.Step 3 On the radio status page, click Settings. The radio settings page appears.Step 4 For the 802.11G radio, follow these steps:a. Under CCK Transmit Power (dBm), click the desired output power level.b. Under OFDM Transmit Power (dBm), click the desired output power level.Step 5 For the 802.11A radio, under Transmit Power (dBm), click the desired output power level.Step 6 Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click Apply. Step 7 Close your web-browser.Table 5-5 Special Country Restrictions for Wireless OperationCountryFrequency Bands (GHz)Regulatory Domain Special Limitation and RestrictionsSouth Korea 2.4 and 5 –K Maximum antenna gain limited to 6 dBi.Mexico 2.4 –N End user must limit 2.4 GHz operation to 2450 to 2483.5 MHz and 36 dBm EIRP.Russian Federation 5 –E End user must limit 5 GHz operation to 5150 to 5350 and 5650 to 5725 MHz.United States 5 –A Indoor use only from 5150-5250 MHz.
