CAUTION

You are cautioned that any changes or

modifications not expressly approved in

this manual could void your authority to

operate this equipment.

This equipment must not be co-located

or operated in conjunction with any

other antenna or transmitter.

This equipment complies with FCC

radiation exposure limits set forth for an

uncontrolled environment and meets

the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure

Guidelines. This equipment has very low

levels of RF energy that it deemed to

comply without maximum permissive

exposure evaluation (MPE). But it is

desirable that it should be installed and

operated keeping the radiator at least

20 cm or more away from person’s body

(excluding extremities: hands, wrists,

feet and ankles).

Compliance with FCC requirement

15.407(c)

Data transmission is always initiated by

software, which is the passed down

through the MAC, through the digital

and analog baseband, and finally to the

RF chip. Several special packets are

initiated by the MAC. These are the only

ways the digital baseband portion will

turn on the RF transmitter, which it then

turns off at the end of the packet.

Therefore, the transmitter will be on

only while one of the aforementioned

packets is being transmitted. In other

words, this device automatically

discontinue transmission in case of

either absence of information to

transmit or operational failure.

Frequency Tolerance: ±20 ppm

and connectors must be used for

connection to host computers and/or

peripherals.

5,150 MHz – 5,250 MHz band is

restricted to indoor operations only.

High-power radars are allocated as

primary users (i.e. priority users) of the

bands 5,250 MHz – 5,350 MHz and

5,650 MHz – 5,850 MHz and that these

radars could cause interference and/or

damage to LE-LAN devices.

Canada’s licence-exempt RSSs.

Operation is subject to the following

two conditions:

(1) This device may not cause

interference; and

(2) This device must accept any

interference, including interference that

may cause undesired operation of the

device.

This equipment complies with IC

radiation exposure limits set forth for an

uncontrolled environment and meets

RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF)

Exposure rules. This equipment has very

low levels of RF energy that it deemed
