FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement:
1. This Transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter.
2. This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set
forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should
be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 0.4
centimeters between the radiator and your body
SAR compliance has been established in a laptop computer with side
USB port conguration as tested in this ling, and can be used in
laptop computers with substantially similar physical dimensions,
construction, and electrical and RF characteristics. Compliance of this
device in all nal host congurations is the responsibility of the Grantee.
End-users must be provided with specic information required to
satisfy RF exposure compliance for all nal host devices.
Max. SAR levels: 0.866 mW/g (1g)
in avoid of radio interference,
please do not use this device close to another transmitters.

Glossary
2G:
Second-generation mobile networking technology. Represents a
switchover from analog to digital; most 2G networks use GSM.
3G:
Third-generation mobile networking technology that enables
simultaneous transfer of voice and non-voice data; most 3G networks
use WCDMA.
3.5G/ HSPA:
A more recent standard of mobile networking technology;
generally uses HSDPA and HSUPA
APN (Access Point Name/Network):
Provides GPRS routing
information. Consists of:
Network ID: Identies the external service requested by a GPRS
user.
Mobile network operator ID: Species routing information.
ARFCN (Absolute Radio Frequency Channel Number):
The
specic ID numbers for all radio channels used in cellular mobile
communications.
bps (bits per second):
How data ow is measured.
DNS (Domain Name System):
Helps route network trafc by making
the addressing process more user-friendly.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol):
How devices obtain
IP addresses from a server.
EDGE (Enhanced Data GSM Environment/Enhanced Data for
Global Evolution):
Advanced GPRS that delivers multimedia and
other data needing greater bandwidth at up to 237 kbps.
GPRS (General Packet Radio Service):
Delivers data in packets at
up to 86 kbps.
GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications):
The most
popular cellular network, mostly operates in 850-900 or 1800-1900
MHz; the primary 2G system.
IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity):
A number unique to
each GSM/UMTS device that can be used block network access by a
stolen mobile device.
IP (Internet Protocol):
Routes packets over a network.
HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet Access):
Advanced WCDMA
that delivers downlink bandwidth intensive data at up to 7.2Mbps;
typically associated with 3.5G.
HSUPA (High Speed Uplink Packet Access):
Advanced WCDMA
that delivers uplink bandwidth intensive data at up to 5.76Mbps;
typically associated with 3.75G.
HSPA+ (High Speed Packet Access evolution):
Advanced HSPA
that delivers uplink bandwidth intensive data over 14.4 Mbps..
Kbps (Kilobits per second):
A data ow measure; 1024 bits/second.
LAN (Local Area Network):
A data network with limited range but
good bandwidth.
Mbps (Megabits per second):
A data ow measure; 1,048,576
bits/second.
NDIS (Network Driver Interface Specification):
a Windows device
driver interface that enables a single network interface card to support
multiple network protocols.
PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol):
An internet connection method.
PIN (Personal Identity Number):
Four to eight digital numbers SIM
card security code; allows access to the carrier’s network.
Rx:
Shorthand for Reception.
SIM (Subscriber Identity Module):
A small card that contains key
mobile device identication, subscription and contact information.
SMS (Short Messaging Service):
Allows text messages of up to 160
characters.
Tx:
Shorthand for Transmission.
UMTS: Universal Mobile Telecommunications System
is one of
the
third-generation (
