VersaLink
®
Wireless Gateway provides reliable, high-speed, Internet access to your existing small
office phone line and is capable of data rates hundreds of times faster than a traditional analog modem. But unlike

needs. In addition, VersaLink supports a variety of networking interfaces such as Wireless 802.11b/g, ADSL,
Ethernet, and USB, along with the following optional features:
•
E1/UPLINK: Alternate WAN uplink port
•

•
Layer w/2 QOS with VLAN tagging
•
HotSpot
•
Simultaneous public/private network support
Hereafter, the Westell
®

The Westell Gateway is powered by an ENERGY STAR
®
qualified adapter.

REGULATORY INFORMATION
3.1
FCC Compliance Note
(FCC ID: CH87500XX-07)
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15
of the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment OFF and ON, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
•
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•
Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
•
Connect the equipment to a different circuit from that to which the receiver is connected.
•
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
•
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
WARNING:
While this device is in operation, a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches) must be maintained
between the radiating antenna and users exposed to the transmitter in order to meet the FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Making changes to the antenna or the device is not permitted. Doing so may result in the installed system exceeding
RF exposure requirements. This device must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or
radio transmitter. Installers and end users must follow the installation instructions provided in this guide.
Modifications made to the product, unless expressly approved, could void the users’ rights to operate the
equipment.
47 CFR PART 68 COMPLIANCE REGISTRATION
a) This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the
bottom side
of this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, a product identifier in the format
US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be provided to the telephone company.
b) The applicable certification jack Universal Service Order Code (“USOC”) for this equipment is RJ11.
c) A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network must comply with
the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and modular
plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to a compatible modular jack that is also
compliant. See installation instructions for details.
d) The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive RENs
on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas,
the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a
line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company. The REN for this product is part of the
product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a
decimal point (e.g., 01 is a REN of 0.1).
