EN 301 489-17 - Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM); ElectroMagnetic
Compatibility (EMC) standard for radio equipment and services; Part 17: Specific conditions for 2,4 GHz
wideband transmission systems and 5 GHz high performance RLAN equipment
This device is a 5GHz wideband transmission system (transceiver), intended for use in all EU member states
and EFTA countries, except in France and Italy where restrictive use applies.
In Italy the end-user should apply for a license at the national spectrum authorities in order to obtain
authorization to use the device for setting up outdoor radio links and/or for supplying public access to
telecommunications and/or network services.
This device may not be used for setting up outdoor radio links in France and in some areas the RF
output power may be limited to 10 mW EIRP in the frequency range of 2454 – 2483.5 MHz. For detailed
information the end-user should contact the national spectrum authority in France.
REACH Certificate of Compliance
The new EU chemicals policy REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and restriction of Chemicals)
came into effect on June 1, 2007. REACH is Europe's new chemicals legislation, which is applicable in all
27 EU Member States as well as the EFTA European Economic Area (EEA). REACH creates a new system
for gathering information, assessing risks to human health and the environment, and authorizing or
restricting the marketing and use of chemicals produced or supplied in the EEA. REACH has an impact
on EEA producers and importers of finished products and users of chemicals in the course of industrial or
professional activities.
WatchGuard supports the overall REACH objective of improving the protection of human health and
the environment and will meet all applicable REACH requirements. WatchGuard is strongly committed
to working with our customers and supply chain to define and implement the REACH requirements and
ensure a smooth transition to compliance.
One of the REACH requirements is that manufacturers and importers have the duty to register substances
they are producing or importing. In accordance with the regulations, the products of WatchGuard do not
need to be registered for the following reasons:
• WatchGuard does not import more than 1 metric ton per year of a substance as defined by REACH.
• WatchGuard products are non-chemical products that are not designed to release any substance
under normal and reasonably predictable application.
• Our products do not contain the listed substances at more than 0.1% by weight of the whole
product/part.
