ZyAIR B-620 User’s Guide iv Information for Canadian Users Information for Canadian Users The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective operation and safety requirements. The Industry Canada does not guarantee that the equipment will operate to a user's satisfaction. Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the company's inside wiring associated with a single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly. The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations. Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment. For their own protection, users should ensure that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines, and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas. Caution Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate. Note This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in the radio interference regulations of Industry. ZyAIR B-620 User’s Guide FCC Statement v Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Interference Statement The Wireless LAN Adapter compliance with Part 15 of FCC rules.

The modular transmitter must comply with the antenna requirements of Section 15.203 and 15.204(c). The ZyAIR B-620 meets the FCC antenna requirements. Please see external photo.pdf 5. The modular transmitter must be tested in a stand-alone configuration, i.e., the module must not be inside another device during testing. The ZyAIR B-620 was tested in a stand-alone configuration via a PCMCIA extender. Please see conducted set-up photo.pdf and spurious set-up photo.pdf 6. The modular transmitter must be labeled with its own FCC ID number, and, if the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. The label position of ZyAIR B-620 is clearly indicated. Please see the label.pdf 7. The modular transmitter must comply with any specific rule or operating requirements applicable to the transmitter and the manufacturer must provide adequate instructions along with the module to explain any such requirements. A copy of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization. The ZyAIR B-620 is compliant with all applicable FCC rules. Detail instructions are given in the Users Manual. Please see Installation guide.pdf 8. The modular transmitter must comply with any applicable RF exposure requirements. For example, FCC Rules in Sections 2.1091, 2.1093 and specific Sections of Part 15, including 15.319(i), 15.407(f), 15.253(f) and 15.255(g), require that Unlicensed PCS, UNII and millimeter wave devices perform routine environmental evaluation for RF Exposure to demonstrate compliance. In addition, spread spectrum transmitters operating under Section 15.247 are required to address RF Exposure compliance in accordance with Section 15.247(b)(4). The ZyAIR B-620 comply with applicable RF exposure requirements. Please see RF safety evaluation. pdf Yours sincerely, Elton Chen Assistant Manager Intertek Testing Service Taiwan Ltd.

Introduction The EUT operates in the 2.4GHz ISM band. The EUT (antenna included) is compliant with modular approval and the normal operation distance (after installing in other device, such as router or access point), 20cm from the human body; therefore, the EUT is defined as a Mobile Device. The reason to do the MPE Evaluation is to avoid the RF hazard to human body. The maximum output power and gain of the antenna were used to calculate the limited distance from the product. The limit for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) specified in FCC 1.1310 is followed. The Notice in Installation Manual has been stated as below: While installing and operating this transmitter, the radio frequency exposure limit of 1mW/(cm*cm) may be exceeded at distances close to the transmitter. therefore, the user must maintain a minimum distance of 20 cm from the device at all time. 2. RF Exposure Limit According to FCC 1.1310: The criteria listed in the following table shall be used to evaluate the environmental impact of human exposure to radio-frequency (RF) radiation as specified in 1.1307(b). Limits for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) Frequency Range (MHz) Electric Field Strength (V/m) Magnetic Field Strength (A/m) Power Density (mW/cm 2 ) Average Time (minutes) (A) Limits for Occupational / Control Exposures 30-300 61.4 0.163 1.0 6 300-1500 - - F/300 6 1500-100,000 - - 5 6 (B) Limits for General Population / Uncontrolled Exposure 30-300 27.5 0.073 0.2 30 300-1500 - - F/1500 30 1500-100,000 - - 1.0 30 F= Frequency in MHz Intertek Testing Services ETL SEMKO FCC ID. : I88B620 Report No.: EME-030336 Page 5 of 5 3. RF Exposure calculations From § FCC 1.1310 table 1, the maximum permissible RF exposure for an uncontrolled environment is 1mW/(cm 2 ) Power density (S) is calculated by the following formula: S = (P * G)/4πR 2 where, S = Power density (mW/cm 2 ) P = Output power to antenna (mW) R = Distance between radiating structure and observation point (cm) G = Gain of antenna in numeric π = 3.1416 Example: Assume a mobile device operates at 2412MHz and its maximum output power is 50mW, and the maximum gain of antenna is 1 (numeric) /0dBi. then the power density (S) = (50 * 1)/4* π *20 2 = 0.00995 (mW/cm 2 ) 4.
