Intel® WiFi Adapter Information Guide This version of Intel® PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software is compatible with the adapters listed next. However, note that newer features provided in this software release are generally not supported for older, legacy adapters. The following adapters are supported on this release for Windows* 8 with Windows* 7 drivers from Intel®: Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 100 Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 130 Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 1000 Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 1030 Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N 6200 Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N 6230 Intel® WiFi Link 5100 Intel® Ultimate N WiFi Link 5300 The following adapters are supported on this release for Windows* 8 with Windows* 8 drivers from Intel®. Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 105 Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 135 Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 2200 Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 2230 Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N + WiMAX 6150 Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N 6205 Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N 6235 Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N + WiMAX 6250 Intel® Centrino® Ultimate-N 6300 Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 Intel® Dual Band Wireless-N 7260 Intel® Wireless-N 7260 Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 3160 With your WiFi network card, you can access WiFi networks, share files or printers, or even share your Internet connection. All of these features can be explored using a WiFi network in your home or office. This WiFi network solution is designed for both home and business use. Additional users and features can be added as your networking needs grow and change. This guide contains basic information about Intel adapters. It includes information about several adapter properties that you can set to control and enhance the performance of your adapter with your particular wireless network and environment. Intel® wireless adapters enable fast connectivity without wires for desktop and notebook PCs. Adapter Settings Regulatory Information Specifications Important Information Support Warranty Glossary Depending on the model of your Intel WiFi adapter, your adapter is compatible with 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n (draft 2.0) wireless standards. Operating at 5GHz or 2.4GHz frequency at data rates of up to 450 Mbps, you can now connect your computer to existing high-speed networks that use multiple access points within large or small environments. Your WiFi adapter maintains automatic data rate control according to the access point location and signal strength to achieve the fastest possible connection. All of your wireless network connections are easily managed by the WiFi connection utility. Profiles that are set up through the WiFi connection utility provide enhanced security measures with 802.1X network authentication.

"IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR ALL USERS OR DISTRIBUTORS: Intel wireless LAN adapters are engineered, manufactured, tested, and quality checked to ensure that they meet all necessary local and governmental regulatory agency requirements for the regions that they are designated and/or marked to ship into. Because wireless LANs are generally unlicensed devices that share spectrum with radars, satellites, and other licensed and unlicensed devices, it is sometimes necessary to dynamically detect, avoid, and limit usage to avoid interference with these devices. In many instances Intel is required to provide test data to prove regional and local compliance to regional and governmental regulations before certification or approval to use the product is granted. Intel's wireless LAN's EEPROM, firmware, and software driver are designed to carefully control parameters that affect radio operation and to ensure electromagnetic compliance (EMC). These parameters include, without limitation, RF power, spectrum usage, channel scanning, and human exposure. For these reasons Intel cannot permit any manipulation by third parties of the software provided in binary format with the wireless LAN adapters (e.g., the EEPROM and firmware). Furthermore, if you use any patches, utilities, or code with the Intel wireless LAN adapters that have been manipulated by an unauthorized party (i.e., patches, utilities, or code (including open source code modifications) which have not been validated by Intel), (i) you will be solely responsible for ensuring the regulatory compliance of the products, (ii) Intel will bear no liability, under any theory of liability for any issues associated with the modified products, including without limitation, claims under the warranty and/or issues arising from regulatory non-compliance, and (iii) Intel will not provide or be required to assist in providing support to any third parties for such modified products. Note: Many regulatory agencies consider Wireless LAN adapters to be "modules", and accordingly, condition system-level regulatory approval upon receipt and review of test data documenting that the antennas an…

Grant Notes
Power Output listed is conducted. Modular Approval. The antenna(s) used for this device must not be co-located with any other transmitters, except in accordance with FCC multi-transmitter product procedures. This module is approved in mobile/portable configurations. Only those antenna(s) tested with the device or similar antenna(s) with equal or lesser gain may be used with this transmitter. Grantee must coordinate with OEM integrators to determine applicable host configurations to ensure RF exposure compliance, including simultaneous transmission SAR requirements according to published KDB 616217 Supplement documentation. When all conditions of this filing cannot be met installation of this device into specific final products may require the submission of a permissive change application, containing appropriate data demonstrating compliance, or a new application. Device is a 1x1 SISO configuration, enabled for either 2.4 or 5 GHz band operations as described in this filing. OEM/Host integrators must be provided with antenna installation instructions and transmitter operating conditions to satisfy RF exposure compliance. OEM/Host integrator is responsible for complying with the instructions and requirements for each transmitter they choose to integrate into a host product. The highest measured body SAR value is: 0.50 W/kg. Simultaneous TX: 1.05W/kg.
