Windows ™ 98SE/2000/ME/XP are trademarks of Microsoft ® Corp. Pentium is trademark of Intel. All copyright reserved. 2 FCC Statement Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user authority to operate the equipment. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures: - Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. - Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. - Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. - Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. IEEE 802.11a operation of this product in the U.S.A. High power radars are allocated as primary users of the 5.25 to 5.35GHz and 5.47 to 5.725GHz bands, do not use these bands. To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, a separation distance of at least 20 cm must be maintained between the antenna of this device and all persons. This Transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other 3 antenna or transmitter This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions: The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and users. For laptop installations, the antenna must be installed to ensure that the proper spacing is maintained in the event the users places the device in their lap during use (i.e. positioning of antennas must be placed in the upper portion of the LCD panel only to ensure 20 cm will be maintained if the user places the device in their lap for use) and The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna. As long as the 2 conditions above are met, further transmitter testing will not be required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.). 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. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization. End Product Labeling This transmitter module is authorized only for use in devices where the antenna may be installed such that 20 cm may be maintained between the antenna and users (for example access points, routers, wireless ASDL modems, certain laptop configurations, and similar equipment). The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following: "Contains TX FCC ID: O9C-DNMA83 ". RF Exposure Manual Information That Must be Included The users manual for end users must include the following information in a prominent location NOTE: To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the antenna used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm 4 from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter." Additional Information That Must be Provided to OEM Integrators The end user should NOT be provided any instructions on how to remove or install the device.

The EUT with antennas was performed correctly and test result was fully complied with FCC regulation, but we were misunderstanding with client for the antenna description. The antenna’s model no. which performed with EUT is C5060-510002-A (gain: [email protected], 3dBi@5GHz), but we listed 3CWE590 (gain: [email protected], 2dBi@5GHz) to the test report. We’ve corrected antenna relative information in Page 5, Page 7 and Page 8 of DTS report (report no.: TS08100102-EME) and page 5 of UNII report (report no.: TS08100102-EME). Please help supersede the exhibit of test reports. I’m so sorry for causing you any inconvenience and thank you so much for your help. Should you have any question, please don’t hesitate to contact with me. Best regards. Lynn Yang Sr. Specialist Tel: 886-3-519-1411 ext:303 Intertek 11, Ln. 275, Ko Nan 1st.

Radiated Spurious Emission Name of Test Radiated Spurious Emission Base Standard FCC 15.247(d), 15.209, 15.205 Test Result: Complies Measurement Data: See Tables below Method of Measurement: Reference FCC document: KDB558074, ANSI C63.4 The frequency range from 30 MHz to 1000 MHz using Bilog Antenna. The frequency range over 1 GHz using Horn Antenna. Radiated emissions were invested cover the frequency range from 30 MHz to 1000 MHz using a receiver RBW of 120 kHz record QP reading, and the frequency over 1 GHz using a spectrum analyzer RBW of 1 MHz and 10 Hz VBW record Average reading. (15.209 paragraph), the Peak reading (1 MHz RBW/VBW) recorded also on the report. The EUT for testing is arranged on a wooden turntable. If some peripherals apply to the EUT, the peripherals will be connected to EUT and the whole system. During the test, all cables were arranged to produce worst-case emissions. The signal is maximized through rotation. The height of antenna and polarization is changing constantly for exploring for maximum signal level. The height of antenna can be up to 4 meters and down to 1 meter. The measurement for radiated emission will be done at the distance of three meters unless the signal level is too low to measure at that distance. In the case of the reading under noise floor, a pre-amplifier is used and/or the test is conducted at a closer distance. And then all readings are extrapolated back to the equivalent 3 meters reading using inverse scaling with distance. The EUT configuration please refer to the “Spurious set-up photo.pdf”. FCC ID. : O9C-DNMA83 Report No.: TS08100102-EME Page 210 of 303 Test Diagram: Emission Limit: The spurious Emission shall test through the 10th harmonic. In addition, radiated emissions which fall in the restricted bands, as defined in §15.205(a), must also comply with the radiated emission limits specified in §15.209(a).
