System Requirements: „ „ „ Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows Me, or Windows 98SE „ A computer with an available USB port „ At least 32 MB of memory and a 300 MHz processor „ „ An 802.11b Access Point or Router (e.g., DWL-900AP for Infrastructure Mode) or another 802.11b wireless adapter (e.g., DWL-650 for Ad-Hoc mode.) 4 Introduction The D-Link Air DWL-120 2.4GHz Wireless USB Adapter is an ideal way to extend the reach and number of computers connected to your wireless network. After completing the steps outlined in the Quick Installation Guide (included in your package) you will have the ability to share information and resources, such as files and printers, and take full advantage of a “connected” environment for work or play! This DWL-120 comes with software drivers for the most popular Microsoft Windows operating systems and can be integrated into a larger network, running Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows ME, or Windows 98SE in either Ad Hoc mode (without an Access Point) or Infrastructure mode (with an Access Point.) The IEEE 802.11b standards compliance means this adapter gives you the flexibility to connect it to any 802.11b network. The IEEE 802.11b Ethernet standard allows you to connect computers and devices at speeds up to 11Mbps, dependent upon the distance between wireless adapters, the configuration of your working environment, or the capabilities or limitations of your computer systems. This manual provides a quick introduction to wireless technology and its application as it relates to networking. Take a moment to read through this manual and familiarize yourself with wireless technology. You should also give yourself some time to become familiar with your new wireless network. 5 Features and Benefits Supports wireless data encryption with 64-bit WEP and 128-bit WEP for more secure networking User-friendly configuration and diagnostic utilities Supports infrastructure networks via an Access Point and peer-to- peer communication in ad-hoc mode Operates in the 2.4 to 2.4835 GHz Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum Provides high-speed wireless connection at up to 11Mbps Cost-effective wireless solution IEEE 802.11b and Wi-Fi Certified Connects at up to 328 feet indoors* „ „ „ „ „ „ „ „ „ Easy installation ** * Environmental factors may adversely affect range One year warranty „ WHQL Certification for Windows XP „ 6 D-Link wireless products are based on industry standards to provide easy-to- use and compatible high-speed wireless connectivity within your home, business or public access wireless networks. Strictly adhering to the IEEE standard, the D-Link wireless family of products will allow you to securely access the data you want, when and where you want it. You will be able to enjoy the freedom that wireless networking delivers. A wireless local area network (WLAN) is a cellular computer network that transmits and receives data with radio signals instead of wires. Wireless LANs are used increasingly in both home and office environments, and public areas such as airports, coffee shops and universities. Innovative ways Wireless Basics more efficiently. Increased mobility and the absence of cabling and other fixed infrastructure have proven to be beneficial for many users. Wireless users can use the same applications they use on a wired network. Wireless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems support the same protocols as Ethernet adapter cards. Under many circumstances, it may be desirable for mobile network devices to link to a conventional Ethernet LAN in order to use servers, printers or an Internet connection supplied through the wired LAN. A Wireless Router is a device used to provide this link. to utilize WLAN technology are helping people to work and communicate Features Link/Activity LED Link - Indicates that the DWL-120 is properly installed in the computer. Activity - Blinks when data is being transmitted through the wireless connection. Antenna Used to wirelessly connect to 802.11b networks Mini-USB port Used to connect the DWL-120 to your computer 7 Wireless Basics (continued) People use wireless LAN technology for many different purposes: Mobility - Productivity increases when people have access to data in any location within the operating range of the WLAN. Management decisions based on real-time information can significantly improve worker efficiency. Low Implementation Costs – WLANs (Wireless Local Area Networks) are easy to set up, manage, change and relocate. Networks that frequently change, both physically and logically, can benefit from WLANs ease of implementation. WLANs can operate in locations where installation of wiring may be impractical.

Operational Description

FCC ID: KA220030603039-1 ADT No.921014R02 Operational Description The transmitter of the EUT is powered by host equipment. The antenna used in this product is Patch antenna without connector. The other instruction, please have a look at the users manual. DSSS Information This device is Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum, the data is mixed by pseudorandom code which is an orthogonal code. The mixed data is digital modulated by BPSK and QPSK technique depends on the data rates. The CCK coding is applied for increasing the data rate, and also the processing gain will be increased. The bit rates are 1,2,5.5,11Mbps, the symbol rates are 1,1,1.375,1.375Mbps, the chip rates are always 11Mbps. So, the Chip/symbol is 11,11,8 and 8 respectively. Although is higher bit rate, the processing gain is lower than 10, but the CCK coding used in higher bit rate will provide 2.2dB coding gain.

RF Exposure Info

FCC ID: KA220030603039-1 Report No: RF921014R02 1 RF EXPOSURE REPORT REPORT NO.: RF921014R02 MODEL NO.: DWL-120 ACCORDING: FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure IEEE C95.1 APPLICANT: D-Link Corporation ADDRESS: No. 8, Li-Hsin VII Road Science Based Industrial Park, Hsin-Chu, Taiwan ISSUED BY: Advance Data Technology Corporation LAB LOCATION: 47 14th Lin, Chiapau Tsun, Linko, Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C. 0528 ILAC MRA Lab Code: 200102-0 FCC ID: KA220030603039-1 Report No: RF921014R02 2 RF Exposure Measurement (Mobile Device) 1. Introduction In this document, we try to prove the safety of radiation harmfulness to the human body for our product. The limit for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) specified in FCC 1.1310 is followed. The Gain of the antenna used in this product is measured in a Fully Anechoic Chamber (FAC) calibrated for antenna measurement in ADT, and also the maximum total power input to the antenna is measured. Through the Friis transmission formula and the maximum gain of the antenna, we can calculate the distance, away from the product, where the limit of MPE is reached. Although the Friis transmission formula is a far field assumption, the calculated result of that is an over-prediction for near field power density. We will take that as the worst case to specify the safety range. 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 300-1500......F/3006 1500-100,000......56 (B)Limits For General Population / Uncontrolled Exposure 300-1500......F/15006 1500-100,000......1.030 F = Frequency in MHz FCC ID: KA220030603039-1 Report No: RF921014R02 3 3. Friis Formula Friis transmission formula: Pd = (Pout*G) / (4*pi*r 2 ) where Pd = power density in mW/cm 2 Pout = output power to antenna in mW G = gain of antenna in linear scale Pi = 3.1416 R = distance between observation point and center of the radiator in cm If we know the maximum Gain of the antenna and the total power input to the antenna, through the calculation, we will know the MPE value at distance 20cm. Ref.: David K. Cheng, Field and Wave Electromagnetics, Second Edition, Page 640, Eq. (11-133). 4 EUT Operating condition The software provided by Manufacturer enabled the EUT to transmit and receive data at lowest, middle and highest channel individually. 5. Classification The antenna of the product, under normal use condition, is at least 20cm away from the body of the user. Warming statement for keeping 20cm separation distance and the prohibition of operating next to a person has been printed on the user’s manual. So, this product is classified as the Mobile Device. FCC ID: KA220030603039-1 Report No: RF921014R02 4 6 Test Results 6.1 Antenna Gain The maximum Gain measured in Fully Anechoic Chamber is 2.54dBi or 1.795 (numeric). 6.2 Output Power Into Antenna & MPE value at distance 20cm: Mode CCK Channel Channel Frequency (MHz) Output Power to Antenna (mW) Power Density (mW/cm 2 ) Limit of Power Density (mW/cm 2 ) 1241239.990.0141.0 6243740.830.0151.0 11246240.550.0141.0
