        Important notes<\/h3>\n

        An ASIAIR researcher bracket is provided on the side panel, but it is not designed to mount an ASIAIR directly there (risk of damage to antenna and cables). If the bracket is moved, use suitable M4 screws (3.5 mm or 4 mm) to avoid internal pressure on the cables.<\/p>\n
