Measurement of Maximum Permissible Exposure 1/2 FCC ID: MSQWL160G Training Research Co., Ltd., TEL: 886-2-26935155, Fax: 886-2-26934440 Measurement of Maximum Permissible Exposure 1. Foreword In adopt with the Human Exposure IEEE C95.1, and according to the FCC 1.1310. The Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) is obligated to measure in order to prove the safety of radiation harmfulness to the human body. The Gain of the antenna used is measured in an Anechoic chamber. The maximum total power to the antenna is to be recorded. By adopting the Friis Transmission Formula and the power gain of the antenna, we can find the distance right away from the product, where the limit of the MPE is. 2. Description of EUT FCC ID : MSQWL160G Product name : Wireless LAN USB Adapter Model name : WL-160G Classification : Mobile Device (i) Under normal use condition, the antenna is at least 20cm away from the user; (ii) Warning statement for keeping 20cm separation distance and the prohibition of operating next to the person has been printed in the user’s manual Frequency Range : 2.412 GHz ~ 2.462GHz Supported Channel : 11 Channels Modulation Skill : DBPSK, DQPSK, CCK, OFDM Power Type : Powered by USB of client’s device Data Cable : USB Cable, 3feet length, shielded, no ferrite core Measurement of Maximum Permissible Exposure 2/2 FCC ID: MSQWL160G Training Research Co., Ltd., TEL: 886-2-26935155, Fax: 886-2-26934440 3.

The following shows only our observation have the greatest emissions.] According to OET BULLETIN 56 Fourth Edition/August 1999, Equation for Predicting RF Fields: Friis Transmission Formula: 2 22 /0402.0 )20(4 3335.1356.151 4 cmmW R PG S= × == ππ Estimated safe separation: cm PG R008.4 4 3335.1356.151 4 = × == ππ Remarks: "The safe estimated separation that the user must maintain from the antenna is at least 4.008 cm." Where: S = power density (in appropriate units, e.g. mW/cm2) P = power input to the antenna (in appropriate units, e.g., mW) G = power gain of the antenna in the direction of interest relative to an isotropic radiator R = distance to the center of radiation of the antenna (appropriate units, e.g., cm) The Numeric gain G of antenna with a gain specified in dB is determined by: G = Log -1 ( dB antenna gain / 10 ) G = Log -1 (1.25 / 10) = 1.3335
