The following list describes some of the many applications made possible through the power and flexibility of wireless LANs: 1. Difficult-to-wire environments There are many situations where wires can not or not easily be laid. Historic buildings, older buildings, open areas and across busy streets make the installation of LANs either impossible or very expensive. 2. Temporary workgroups Consider situations in parks, athletic arenas, exhibitions, disaster-recovery, temporary office and construction sites where one wants a temporary WLAN established and removed. 3. The ability to access real-time information Doctors/nurses, point-of-sale employees, and warehouse workers can access real-time information while dealing with patients, serving customers and processing information. 4. Frequently changed environments Show rooms, meeting rooms, retail stores, and manufacturing sites where frequently rearrange the workplace. 5. Small Office and Home Office (SOHO) networks SOHO users need a cost-effective, easy and quick installation of a small network. 2 6. Wireless extensions to Ethernet networks Network managers in dynamic environments can minimize the overhead caused by moves, extensions to networks, and other changes with wireless LANs. 7. Wired LAN backup Network managers implement wireless LANs to provide backup for mission-critical applications running on wired networks. 8. Training/Educational Facilities Training sites at corporations and students at universities use wireless connectivity to ease access to information, information exchanges, and learning. 1- 6 Network Configurations To better understand how the wireless LAN products work together to create a wireless network, it might be helpful to depict a few of the possible wireless LAN USB Adapter network configurations. The wireless LAN products can be configured as: 1. Ad-hoc (or peer-to-peer) for departmental or SOHO LANs. 2. Infrastructure for enterprise LANs. 3. IP Sharing for 56K/ISDN TA/Cable/DSL Modem – Connect Internet and your SOHO network. Ad-hoc (peer-to-peer) Mode This is the simplest network configuration that several computers equipped with the USB Adapters that form a wireless network whenever they are within range of one another. In ad-hoc mode, each client, is peer-to-peer, would only have access to the resources of the other client and requires no the access point. This is the easiest and least expensive way for the SOHO to set up a wireless network. Infrastructure Mode The infrastructure mode requires the use of an access point (AP). In this mode, all wireless communications between two computers have to be via the AP no matter the AP is wired to Ethernet network or stand-alone. If used in stand-alone, the AP can extend the range of independent wireless LANs by acting a repeater, which effectively doubling the distance between wireless stations. If wired to an Ethernet network, the AP serves as a bridge and provides the link between the server and the wireless clients. The wireless clients can move freely throughout the coverage area of the AP while remaining connected to the server. Since the AP is connected to the wired network, each client would have access to server resources as well as to other clients. Access points have a finite range, on the order of 50 meters indoor and 100 meters outdoors. In a very large facility such as an enterprise, a warehouse, or on a college campus, it will probably be necessary to install more than one access point to cover an entire building or campus. In this scenario, access points hand the client off from one to another in a way that is invisible to the client, ensuring unbroken connectivity. Wireless clients can roam seamlessly between different coverage areas and remain connected to the network. Wireless Router and IP Sharing In infrastructure mode, in addition to acting as a bridge between an Ethernet and wireless network, the AP can be configured as a wireless router and IP sharing device for Internet access . You don’t have to buy an expensive router. Nor you have to buy several modems and setup phone lines. Just share one AP, one Modem, single dial-up account, and one Phone line, dozens of network users can go surfing the Internet concurrently. 3 Chapter 2 Installing Drivers & Client Utility This chapt…

FCC ID: NI3-SL-2211UB ADT No.: 900828R09 FCC TEST REPORT REPORT NO.: RF900828R09 MODEL NO.: SL-2211UB ACCORDING: FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure IEEE C95.1 APPLICANT:SENAO INTERNATIONAL CO., LTD. ADDRESS: 2F, No.531, Chung Cheng Rd., Hsin-Tien, Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C. ISSUED BY:Advance Data Technology Corporation LAB LOCATION:47 14th Lin, Chiapau Tsun, Linko, Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C. 0528 Lab Code: 200102-0 FCC ID: NI3-SL-2211UB ADT No.: 900828R09 RF Exposure Measurement (Mobile Device) 1. Introduction 2.4 GHz frequency band is regarded specially as a dangerous band for its heating harmfulness to the human body. That’s why microwave oven is operating in this frequency band. The manufacturer whose product is working in this frequency band is obligatory to prove the harmfulness of his product. 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), and 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. 2. Classification The antenna of the product, under normal use condition, is at least 20 cm away from the body of the user. Warning statement for keeping 20 cm separation distance and the prohibition of operating next to a person has been printed on the users manual. So, this product is classified as the Mobile Device. 3. 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). FCC ID: NI3-SL-2211UB ADT No.: 900828R09 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 30-30061.40.1631.06 300-1500......F/3006 1500-100,000......56 (B)Limits For General Population / Uncontrolled Exposure 30-30027.50.0730.230 300-1500......F/150030 1500-100,000......1.030 F = Frequency in MHz 4. 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 Pd is the limit of MPE, 1 mW/cm 2 . If we know the maximum Gain of the antenna and the total power input to the antenna, through the calculation, we will know the distance r where the MPE limit is reached. Ref. : David K. Cheng, Field and Wave Electromagnetics, Second Edition, Page 640, Eq. (11-133). 5. EUT Operating condition The software provided by Manufacturer enabled the EUT to transmit and receive data at lowest, middle and highest channel individually. FCC ID: NI3-SL-2211UB ADT No.: 900828R09 6.

FCC ID: NI3-SL-2211UB Report No.: RF900828R09 42 Issued: September 7, 2001 4.6.4 EUT OPERATING CONDITION Same as Item 3.4.5 4.6.5 TEST RESULTS The spectrum plots are attached on the following 2 pages. D2 line indicates the highest level, D1 line indicates the 20dB offset below D2. It shows compliance with the requirement in part 15.247(C). NOTE: The band edge emission plot on the following 2 pages shows 50.28dB delta between carrier maximum power and local maximum emission in restrict band (2.4852GHz).
