FCC Radio Frequency Interference Requirements
This wireless adapter is restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz frequency range. FCC requires this wireless adapter to be used indoors
for the frequency range 5.15 to 5.25 GHz to reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel Mobile Satellite systems. High power radars are allocated
as primary users of the 5.25 to 5.35 GHz and 5.65 to 5.85 GHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference with and /or damage this device.
 This wireless adapter is intended for OEM integrators only.
 This wireless adapter cannot be co-located with any other transmitter unless approved by the FCC based upon FCC Knowledge Database publication
number 616217 D03 (Supplement) when there are multiple radios installed in a host device, RF exposure transmitting assessment shall be performed to
determine the necessary application and test requirements. Certain criteria can be used in determine the requirement for simultaneous SAR evaluation and
whether Class I or Class II permissive change may apply. OEM integrators must consult the actual FCC KDB 616217 Supplement document for details
USA—Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
This wireless adapter complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation of the device is subject to the following two conditions:
 This device may not cause harmful interference.
 This device must accept any interference that may cause undesired operation.

 The requirements described within this document are provided to OEM’s and system integrators installing the wireless adapter in host platforms. Strict
adherence to these requirements is necessary to meet the conditions of compliance with FCC and Industry Canada rules for RF exposure. When all
requirements described herein are fulfilled the wireless adapter may be installed in host platforms with no further RF exposure restrictions when integrating.
If any of the requirements herein are not fulfilled then additional testing and FCC/IC Permissive Changes may be required with the specific host platform
and/or antennas for compliance.
 Antenna Type and Gains
 Only antennas of the same type and with equal or less gains as described in Table-1 below may be used with the wireless adapter. Other types of antennas
and/or higher gain antennas can only be authorized by Permissive Change.
