Wireless AP model - different countrys

[Luke Skywalker]

Hi, I am looking at various AP's on auction sites etc.

I am from the UK and my question is do I have to get an AP with my country in the model format?

Eg I have seen 2600 series AP like 2602-E-I-K9 which I know is external by the first E but the second letter 'I' I believe is not UK.

Am I allowed to get one with the 'I' or is this not allowed? Is E-I legal in the UK?

If allowed, are there any disadvantages to having one from another country or from the region of 'I' in this example? Different waves/frequencies would it be? Anything to be concerned about?

Sometimes they are cheaper so it was just a thought but if it is not correct practise or allowed then I will not bother,

Thank you for your time,

Hi 

Refer below document to findout the correct regulatory domain products available for each country

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/wireless/access-points/product_data_sheet0900aecd80537b6a.html

There is Universal Regulatory (UX) domain product available, but once purchased you have to configure it to the country you deploy.
