INFORMATION FOR OEMs and HOST INTEGRATORS
The guidelines described within this document are provided to OEM integrators
installing WLAN adapter in host platforms. Adherence to these requirements is
necessary to meet the conditions of compliance with FCC rules, including RF
exposure. When all antenna type and placement guidelines described herein are
fulfilled the WLAN Adapter may be incorporated into host platforms with no
further restrictions. If any of the guidelines described herein are not satisfied it
may be necessary for the OEM or integrator to perform additional testing and/or
obtain additional approval. The OEM or integrator is responsible to determine
the required host regulatory testing and/or obtaining the required host approvals
for compliance. WLAN adapter are intended for OEMs and host integrators
only.WLAN adapter FCC Grant of Authorization describes any limited conditions
of modular approval.WLAN adapter must be operated with an access point that
has been approved for the country of operation. Changes or modification to
WLAN adapter by OEMs, integrators or other third parties is not permitted. Any
changes or modification to WLAN adapter by OEMs, integrators or other third
parties will void authorization to operate the adapter
Antenna Types and Gains
Only antennas of the same type and with equal or less gains as shown below
may be used with the WLAN adapter. Other types of antennas and/or higher
gain antennas may require additional authorization for operation.

Antenna Placement Within the Host Platform
To ensure RF exposure compliance the antenna(s) used with the WLAN adapter
must be installed in Host platforms to provide a least distance of 20 centimeters
between the radiator and your body.
Use only with supplied antenna (WSS015,WSS002). Unauthorized
Antenna(chip Antenna) could damage the transmitter and may violate FCC
regulations.
