Most Dell computers are classified for Class B environments. However, the
inclusion of certain options can change the rating of some configurations to
Class A. To determine the electromagnetic classification for your computer
or device, refer to the following sections specific for each regulatory agency.
Each section provides country-specific EMC/EMI or product safety
information.
FCC Notices (U.S. Only)
Most Dell computers are classified by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) as Class B digital devices. To determine which
classification applies to your computer, examine all FCC registration labels
located on the bottom or back panel of your computer, on card-mounting
brackets, and on the cards themselves. If any one of the labels carries a Class
A rating, your entire computer is considered to be a Class A digital device. If
all labels carry an FCC Class B rating as distinguished by either an FCC ID
number or the FCC logo, ( ), your computer is considered to be a Class B
digital device.
Once you have determined your computer’s FCC classification, read the
appropriate FCC notice. Note that FCC regulations provide that changes
or modifications not expressly approved by Dell could void your authority to
operate this equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions:
