Exalt Communications, Inc. Exalt EX-5 Series Module Guide 5xxxxxxx 19 2007-06-29 Appendix A - Regulatory Compliance General Regulatory Notices Exalt’s EX-5 Series products are equipped with base software that does not include Regulatory License Key (RLK) information. The professional installer is required to enter the License Key based on regional regulations. License keys are issued by serial number, it is important that the license key used for installing the radio is the correct license key for the serial number on the product. Dynamic Frequency Selection Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) may be required by regional legislation in some frequency bands in order to avoid causing interference to radar systems. Prior to the start of any transmission, the device equipped with DFS monitors the spectrum and is not permitted to transmit on a part of the spectrum that is already in use for radar transmissions for a period of 30 minutes. During operation of the device, the spectrum is continually monitored by the DFS to detect if radar begins transmission on a frequency that is being used by the device to transmit on. If the DFS software detects radar, the device must move off channel within a specified time period so that the device transmission does not interfere with the radar transmission. The device equipped with DFS is required to stay off that part of the spectrum for a minimum of 30 minutes, after which time the device may then check the spectrum for radar transmissions and begin transmitting if no radar is detected. Antennas Table 2 lists antennas recommended for use with the EX-5 Series radios. In some countries, antennas exceeding a certain level of gain may be unlawful.

For 5 GHz radios, the following standards were applied: • Radio: EN 301 893, EN 302 502 • EMC: EN 301 489-1, EN 301 489-17 • Safety: EN 60950-1, IEC 60950-1 The following CE mark is affixed to the product: EU WEEE Exalt is committed to meeting the requirements of the European Union’s Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive. The Directives require producers of electrical and electronic equipment to finance the take-back for re-use or recycling of their products placed on the EU market after 13 August 2005. Exalt products that are within the scope of the Directives are labeled with a crossed-out "wheelie-bin" symbol as required by the Directives. This indicates that the product was placed on the market after 13 August 2005 and that end-users should segregate the product from other wastes at end-of-life. The WEEE Directives are being implemented in each of the 28 EU and European Economic Area (EAA) countries through national legislation. This has resulted in considerable variation in the detailed requirements across the EU, many of which require presence in the EU. As a result, Exalt’s WEEE compliance approach is to require the

Exalt Communications, Inc. Exalt EX-5 Series Guide 5xxxxxxx 28 2007-06-29 distributors and/or resellers in the EU to comply with each country’s national legislation by registration of the distributor or reseller as the producer and for the reseller/distributor to carry out and fulfill the legislative requirements of each national compliance scheme. Below is the crossed out wheelie bin symbol as required by the WEEE Directive. EU RoHS RoHS is the acronym used to refer to the European Union (EU) Directive 2002/95/EC on the Restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. Hazardous materials are those chemicals and substances that are legislatively, market, or customer banned or restricted for use in products and/or manufacturing. There are six (6) RoHS substances: lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), hexavalent chromium (Cr+6), polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and polybrominated diphenylethers (PBDE). Other countries may be introducing legislation that results in similar restrictions of hazardous substances. Many Exalt products will continue to use lead-based solder under the exemption allowed for network infrastructure equipment. Small amounts of lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, PBB, and PBDE can also be found in a few electrical and electrical components. Europe Compliance The EX-5 family operates under EN 301 893 and EN 302 502 rules as a license-exempt device. All of these permitted devices must be professionally installed. They may only be used as a point-to-point transmission device for fixed or temporary-fixed (non-mobile) installations. The devices are subject to the following restrictions: • Do not use external amplifiers to boost the power or overcome transmission system losses, unless the specific amplifier/cable/antenna combination has expressly been authorized by the specific country regulations. The output power must never exceed that specified. • Use only parabolic dish antennas or directional flat-panel antennas. No other types of antennas (omni-directional, yagi, and so on) are authorized. Parabolic dishes of either grid or solid type are allowed. Maximum mid-band gain of each type of antenna certified is: ¶ EX-5 models:
