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: ƒReorient or relocate the receiving antenna. ƒIncrease the separation between the equipment and receiver. ƒConnect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. ƒConsult 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.

GETTING TO KNOW WIRELESS LAN USB ADAPTER LED ƒLED turns on when POWER is applied to the WLAN Mini USB Adapter. LED is blinking when PC is sending data through WLAN Mini USB Adapter. Driver CD Wireless LAN Adapter WIRELESS LAN BASICS Wireless LAN network defined by IEEE 802.11b/g standard committee could be configured as : ƒAd Hoc wireless LAN, or ƒInfrastructure wireless LAN. Ad Hoc network is a group of PCs installed with wireless LAN cards, this group of PCs is called a BSS (Basic Service Set). PCs in this group can use their wireless LAN cards to communicate with each other, but can not connect to the Internet. The most obvious difference between Infrastructure wireless network and Ad Hoc wireless network is that the PCs in Infrastructure wireless network can access the resource in the Internet through Access Point. Depending on your requirement, you can easily set up your PC’s network to be a “Ad Hoc” or “Infrastructure” wireless network. Gener- ally speaking, if in your network, there is an Access Point in it, we recom- mend you to set your network as an “Infrastructure”, so it can connect to the Internet. 3 Ad Hoc Wireless Network Infrastructure Wireless Network IP ADDRESS To use the WLAN Mini USB Adapter with a computing device, the WLAN Mini USB Adapter must be equipped with an USB 1.1 or 2.0 Interface. All drivers and supporting software for the WLAN Mini USB Adapter must be installed and configured first. Ask your system administrator for the following information, which you may need to …

American Telecommunications Certification Body Inc. 6731 Whittier Ave, McLean, VA 22101 October 27, 2004 RE: CC&C Technologies, Inc. FCC ID: PANWL2203 After a review of the submitted information, I have a few comments on the above referenced Application. 1) The RF exposure mentions 2.5 cm but also calculates MPE to 20 cm. This is not correct. Note that for this type of device, it is assumed that a touch position could occur. Additionally, the power output does not require SAR (10.48 dBm + 1.98 dBi = approximately 18 mW which is < 24 mW). Please see attached example and please modify your RF exposure exhibit in a similar fashion for this application. 2) The users manual mentions a 20 cm spacing (page 4) which is not applicable to this device. Please remove this reference. Note that the non-colocation statement should be left in the user manual. 3) Users manual mentions 13.5 dBm transmit power (page 19), while the maximum power measured was only 10.48. Please explain. Note that the FCC expects all testing to be performed at maximum TX power. 4) The operational description mentions this is a frequency hopping device, while the test report supports an 802.11 b/g device. Please explain/correct as necessary. 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.

Dear Tim I have been uploaded the revised manual, operation description letter and RF exposure report to website now. Please check. Thanks for your assistance! Best Regards Wendy Liao

FCC ID: PANWL2203 Report No: SA931004L01 1 RF EXPOSURE REPORT REPORT NO.: SA931004L01 MODEL NO.: WL-2203 ACCORDING: FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure IEEE C95.1 APPLICANT: CC&C Technologies Inc. ADDRESS: 8F, 150, Jian Yi Road, Chung Ho City, Taipei County, Taiwan 235, R.O.C. ISSUED BY: Advance Data Technology Corporation TEST LOCATION: No. 19, Hwa Ya 2nd Rd., Kueishan, Taoyuan, Taiwan, R.O.C. FCC ID: PANWL2203 Report No: SA931004L01 2 RF Exposure Measurement (Portable 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: PANWL2203 Report No: SA931004L01 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.
