Regulatory Information A
Wireless  communication  is  often  subject  to  local  radio 
regulations. Although  AirStation wireless networking products 
have been designed for operation in the license-free 2.4 GHz 
band, local radio regulations may impose limitations on the use 
of wireless communication equipment.

• The range of wireless devices can be affected by metal surfaces, 
solid high-density materials and obstacles in the signal path. 
• In Open Office environments, clients can “see” each other, i.e. 
there are no physical obstructions between them.
• In Semi-open Office environments, work space is separated by 
room dividers; client cards are at desktop level.
•  In  Closed  Office  environments,  workspace  is  separated  by 
floor-to-ceiling brick walls.
NOTE:
The  range  values  listed  in Table “Radio  Characteristics”  are 
typical distances as measured at Buffalo Technology AirStation 
laboratories. These values are provided for your guidance but 
may vary according to the actual radio conditions at the location 
where the AirStation product is installed. 
AirStation IEEE 802.11 Channel Sets 
The range of the wireless signal is related to the Transmit Rate of 
the wireless communication. Communications at a lower Transmit 
range may travel longer distances.
