Antenna Placement Within the Host Platform
•
Placement
•
To ensure RF exposure compliance the antenna(s) used with the Intel® wireless adapters must be
installed in notebook or tablet PC host platforms to provide a minimum separation distance from all
persons, in all operating modes and orientations of the host platform, with strict adherence to the table
below. The antenna separation distance applies to both horizontal and vertical orientation of the antenna
when installed in the host system.

It is recommended that a 5 cm separation distance between transmitting antennas be provided within the host
system to maintain an adequate separation ratio for simultaneous WiFi and Bluetooth transmission. For less
than 5 cm separation the separation ration must be verified according to FCC publication KDB 447498 for the
specific distance. Details of the authorized antenna separation distances can be found at
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/ by entering the FCC ID number of the device.
Simultaneous Transmission of Intel® Wireless Adapters with Other Integrated or Plug-In
Transmitters
Based upon FCC Knowledge Database publication number 616217
https://apps.fcc.gov/oetcf/kdb/forms/FTSSearchResultPage.cfm?id=33240&switch=P, when there are multiple
transmitting devices installed in a host device, an RF exposure transmitting assessment shall be performed to
determine the necessary application and test requirements. OEM integrators must identify all possible
combinations of simultaneous transmission configurations for all transmitters and antennas installed in the host
system. This includes transmitters installed in the host as mobile devices (>20 cm separation from user) and
portable devices (<20 cm separation from user). OEM integrators should consult the actual FCC KDB 616217
document for all details in making this assessment to determine if any additional requirements for testing or
FCC approval is necessary.
Class B Device Interference Statement
This wireless adapter has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This wireless adapter generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy. If the wireless adapter is not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, the wireless adapter
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. There is no guarantee, however, that such
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this wireless adapter does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception (which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on), the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by taking one or more of the following measures:
•
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna of the equipment experiencing the interference.
