Not for use with External Antenna. WiFiHU2S-c * WiFi SMD Module with dual on board U.FL connectors for attaching antenna cables and 2.
Connecting the WiFiHU2S to Your System Prior to connecting the WiFiHU2S to a Window XP, the drivers should be installed. The WiFiHU2S Modules are designed for easy connection to any wireless network. If using Windows, load the provided drivers. The WiFiHU2S is now ready for use. If you plan to embed the WiFiHU2S into your system, the SMD type can be mounted onto your main board to verify or test the module functions.
General Layout Design Suggestions • General Layout Rules- All Printed Circuit Boards must comply with UL94V0 standard for flammability. Always use RoHS compliant Parts and materials. • Suggestions for Layout: 1. Do not place Power circuit, X’tal, Inductor, etc near RF area. 2. The bigger Antenna clearance area, the better. The Antenna circuitry needs to stay away from any circuit or component by at least 2mm. For best operation, Antenna clearance area means Top and Bottom both required to be cleared. 3.

Note: 1. LED is active low output signal. When RF transmit or receive, LED is active. LED reference circuit is on right hand side. 2. Pin 9 to pin 13 are extra pins for antenna signal output which are NOT necessary by using chip antenna or connectors on WiFiHU2.
FCC, IC, and CE Label Location and Module Model Identification (PENDING) The WiFiHU2S module family is FCC Part 15 and IC (Industry Canada) certified. The WiFiHU2S is also CE marked. The modules are labeled with the appropriate WiFiHU2S module model number and FCC Part 15 ID, IC registration number and CE mark. The label can be found on top of the metal shielding on the WiFiHU2S Module. Radicom Research Inc. Radicom Research Inc.
be required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end product for any additional compliance requirements required with the module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc). IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions can not be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID can not be used on the final product.
FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement IMPORTANT NOTE: To comply with the FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the antenna used on this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any antenna or transmitter. This device contains a low power transmitter. When this device is operational, use only with the supplied, or recommended antenna.
Europe – R&TTE Compliance Statement: Hereby, Radicom Research Inc. declares that this equipment complies with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of DIRECTIVE 1999/5/CE OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL of March 9, 1999 on radio equipment and telecommunication terminal Equipment and the mutual recognition of their conformity (R&TTE). CE Declaration of Conformity For the following equipment: Radicom Research Inc.
