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. Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the users authority to operate the equipment. NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the 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 receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for help. RF Exposure Information (SAR) This device meets the governments requirements for exposure to radio waves. This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S Government. The exposure standard for wireless devices employs a unit of measurement know as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. *Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer the proximity to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. The highest SAR value for this device as reported to the FCC when tested for use in body is 1.22 W/Kg. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices at various positions, they all meet the government requirement. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device with all reported SAR levels evaluated in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: HLZPCONNECTD5. This device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR compliance for body operation is based on a separation distance of 5 mm between the unit and the human body. Carry this device, at least 5 mm away from your body to ensure RF exposure level compliant or lower to the reported level. CE.FCC SAR max CE: 1.332 W/kg, distance 5mm FCC: 1.22W/kg, distance 5mm CE Statement Hereby, [Acer Incorporated] declares that the radio equipment type [D5] is in compliance with Directive 2014/53/EU. The full text of the EU declaration of conformity is available at the following internet address: www.acer.com The device could be used with a separation distance of 5mm to the human body.

Use the check_extractable if you want to raise an error in this case Acer Incorporated Explanation N77 operating band in US We, Acer Incorporated declare that the device with FCC ID: HLZPCONNECTD5 supported 3550-3700 MHz and 3700-3980 MHz for 5G NR band n77 in USA. By design, LTE/5GNR User Equipment (UE) will only transmit after receiving the Master Information Block (MIB) and the System Information Block (SIB) from base stations. This information is necessary for the UE to join the network. Accordingly, transmissions on non-allocated US bands (eg. 3550-3700 MHz) cannot occur because there will be no authorized base station device operating on non-US bands in the USA/US Territories. This is in line with what is done with 2G and 3G protocols, to ensure that the UE will not transmit on bands that, even if supported by the UE hardware, are not allowed in the US."
