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. IMPORTANT NOTE: FCC Radiation Exposure Statement: This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. 4 This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions: The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna. As long as conduction above is met, further transmitter test 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.). IMPORTANT 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 The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following: “Contains TX FCC ID: PANWL1205”. Manual Information That Must be Included The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module in the users manual of the end product which integrate this module. IMPORTANT NOTE: To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements. The antenna must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. 5 REGULATORY INFORMATION WLAN 11b USB Module 12*71 must be installed and used in strict accordance with the instructions.

American Telecommunications Certification Body Inc. 6731 Whittier Ave, McLean, VA 22101 June 1, 2004 RE: CC&C Technologies, Inc. FCC ID: PANWL1205 After a review of the submitted information, I have a few comments on the above referenced Application. Administrative Issues: 1) FYI....The FCC logo is not necessary on the labeling and should be removed since this device is not a self contained PC peripheral sold to the end user. Technical Issues: 2) It can not adequately be determined how the device was positioned on the table from the photographs provided. Per February 04, TCB training states, DO NOT LAY ANTENAS ON WOOD TABLETOP, and Antenna positioning in test setup should represent typical final-product configuration. The antenna should not be placed directly on the wooden table top but positioned above the table top in a fashion typical of final use. Please provide further information or retest if necessary. 3) The FCC expects the device to be tested for radiated emissions to 10 th harmonic of the highest fundamental frequency. From the plots it appear that only up to 5 GHz was scanned. Please review. 4) Please provide a separate RF exposure exhibit for this device. (see attached example). Note that the 60/f should be based on the center of the band of TX. Also, the RF exposure information given in the test report assumes 20 cm, which is not relevant. Please correct. 5) Please explain why the fundamental frequencies do not appear in the Radiated plots. Timothy R. Johnson Examining Engineer mailto: [email protected] The items indicated above must be submitted before processing can continue on the above referenced application. Failure to provide the requested information may result in application termination. Correspondence should be considered part of the permanent submission and may be viewed from the Internet after a Grant of Equipment Authorization is issued. Please do not respond to this correspondence using the email reply button. In order for your response to be processed expeditiously, you must submit your documents through the AmericanTCB.com website. Also, please note that partial responses increase processing time and should not be submitted. Any questions about the content of this correspondence should be directed to the sender.

Response for CC&C 1. ok. 2. Please see attached test result comparison. 3. We have searched the frequency range up to 25GHz 4. Yes, I have asked Linda re-submit RF exposure exhibition to your web site. 5. Our first test for the product is the carrier power strength which will be used on the bandedge emission. Then we will connect the Notch filter and amplifer for the spurious in case the amplifer being saturated. That is why we will have no carrier frequency on the plot.

FCC ID:PANWL1205 Description of Operational The transmitter of the EUT is powered by host equipment. The antenna used in this product is Chip antenna without antenna 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 are1,1,1.375,1.375Mbps, 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.

FCC ID: PANWL1205 RF Exposure Application of the filed product This product is a 802.11b module with on board chip antenna produced by CC&C Technologies, Inc.
