The versatile Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge can make any wired Ethernet-equipped device a part of your wireless network. At home, use the Bridge to connect game consoles, set-top boxes, or computers to your Wireless-G network and its shared high-speed Internet connection. In the office, convert your Ethernet-wired printer, camera, notebook or desktop into a wireless networked device.It's completely driver-free, so it works on any platform and under any operating system! Since there's no drivers to load, setup is a snap—configure the network settings through your PC's web browser, then plug it into your device and go. And physical installation is simplified by support for Power Over Ethernet. With an optional POE Adapter, you can mount the Bridge wherever you want—power and data are both supplied through the Category 5 Ethernet cable.You can also use the Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge as a kind of “cable-less cable” to connect remote areas together. Maybe Shipping is all the way across the warehouse from Receiving. Or maybe you want to set up a home office in your detached garage. With a Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge in the garage, and another one (or a Wireless-G Access Point) in the house, you're connected—no digging trenches, and no overhead wires. Let the Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge from Linksys open up exciting new possibilities for your wireless network.Use the instructions in this Guide to help you set up and connect the Bridge. These instructions should be all you need to get the most out of the Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge. Ethernet : an IEEE standard network protocol that specifies how data is placed on and retrieved from a common transmission medium. 802.11g : an IEEE wireless networking standard that specifies a maximum data transfer rate of 54Mbps, an operating frequency of 2.4GHz, and backward compatibility with 802.11b devices. 2 Chapter 1: IntroductionWhat’s in this Guide?Wireless-G Ethernet BridgeWhat’s in this Guide?This user guide covers the steps for s…

FCC ID: Q87-HGA5S-2 Report No. 931005H04 Operational Description This device is a WET54GS5 Linksys Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge with 5-Port Switch, the maximum data rate could be up to 54Mbps which OFDM technique will be applied. If the signal to noise radio is too poor which could not support 54Mbps, the 11Mbps data rate with CCK technique will be applied. The transmitter of the EUT (WET54GS5 Linksys Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge with 5- Port Switch) is powered by from power adapter. The antenna type used in this product is Dipole Antenna with Reverse SMA connector. The other instruction, please have a look at the users manual.

FCC ID: Q87-HGA5S-2 ADT No.: 931005H04 1 FCC TEST REPORT REPORT NO.: RF931005H04 MODEL NO.: WET54GS5 ACCORDING: FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure IEEE C95.1 APPLICANT:Cisco-Linksys, LLC ADDRESS:121 Theory Drive Irvine, CA 92612 (USA) ISSUED BY:Advance Data Technology Corporation LAB LOCATION:No. 81-1, Lu Liao Keng, 9 Ling, Wu Lung Tsuen, Chiung Lin Hsiang, Hsin Chu Hsien, Taiwan, R.O.C. FCC ID: Q87-HGA5S-2 ADT No.: 931005H04 2 RF Exposure Measurement 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: Q87-HGA5S-2 ADT No.: 931005H04 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 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 MPE value at distance 20cm. Ref. : David K. Cheng, Field and Wave Electromagnetics, Second Edition, Page 640, Eq. (11-133). 4. EUT Operating condition The software provided by Manufacturer enabled the EUT to transmit and receive data at lowest, middle and highest channel individually. 5. Classification This is a stand alone radio device. So under normal use condition, it is easy to be re- located in the place where at least 20 cm far away from the body of the user. Warning statement to the user for keeping at least 20cm or more separation distance with the antenna should be included in users manual. So, this device is classified as Mobile Device.
