Following are two short sections—the first discusses the benefits of home networking, and the other outlines best practices that maximize your wireless home network range and performance. Please be sure to read through this User Manual completely, and pay special attention to the section entitled “Placement of your Wireless Networking Hardware for Optimal Performance” on the next page. By following our simple setup instructions you will be able to use your Belkin Home Network to: • Share one high-speed Internet connection with all the computers in your home • Share resources, such as files and hard drives among all the connected computers in your home • Share a single printer with the entire family • Share documents, music, video, and digital pictures • Store, retrieve, and copy files from one computer to another • Simultaneously play games online, check Internet e-mail, and chat Here are some of the advantages of setting up a Belkin Wireless Network: • Mobility – you’ll no longer need a dedicated “computer room”—now you can work on a networked laptop or desktop computer anywhere within your wireless range • Easy installation – Belkin’s Easy Installation Wizard makes setup simple • Flexibility – set up and access printers, computers, and other networking devices from anywhere in your home • Easy Expansion – the wide range of Belkin networking products let you expand your network to include devices such as printers and gaming consoles • No cabling required – you can spare the expense and hassle of retrofitting Ethernet cabling throughout the home or office • Widespread industry acceptance – choose from a wide range of interoperable networking products. MIMO technology will be used for 802.11n, a standard for next-generation 802.11 products that boosts throughput to 100Mbps. The element that makes Belkin’s Pre-N MIMO technology different from a conventional radio is the use of three antennas and two simultaneous data streams to deliver wireless transfers around your home or office. A conventional radio uses one antenna to transmit a data stream. Belkin’s smart antenna radio (MIMO), on the other hand, uses three antennas. This design helps combat distortion and interference. Belkin’s Pre-N MIMO is multidimensional. It builds on one-dimensional smart antenna technology by simultaneously transmitting two data streams through the same channel, which increases wireless capacity. Think of conventional radio transmission as a two-lane highway. The speed limit governs the maximum allowable flow of traffic through that lane. Compared with conventional radios, one- dimensional smart antenna systems help move traffic through that lane faster and more reliably—analogous to a four-lane road on which traffic consistently moves at a rate closer to the speed limit. Belkin’s Pre-N MIMO helps traffic move at the speed limit and opens more lanes—to become the superhighway in this example. The rate of traffic flow is multiplied by the number of lanes that are opened. Revolutionary 108Mbps Wireless Pre-N Technology with MIMO Your Belkin Wireless Pre-N Router uses a new smart antenna technology called Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO). MIMO is a smart antenna technique that increases speed, range, reliability, and spectral efficiency for wireless networking systems.

Refer to external photos 5 Be tested in a stand-alone configuration, i.e., the antenna, AC or DC power and data input/output lines must be connected to the module but, the module must not be inside another case during testing Device was tested on an extender board connected to laptop. Refer to setup photos. 6 Be labeled with its own FCC ID number, and if the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. Two proposed FCC ID label format are included in the filing. One of label is to be placed on the module and the other label is to be placed on the outside of system. Refer to FCC ID label format and location file. 7 The modular transmitter is manufactured so that the user cannot influence the operation of the transmitter that will operate outside of the scope of the regulations. Refer to “User’s Guide” Exhibit 8 Address compliance with the Commission's RF exposure limits in Sections 1.1310 and 2.1093. In addition, spread spectrum transmitters operating under Section 15.247 are required to address RF exposure compliance in accordance with Section 15.247(b)(4).

Airgo BBGW Module True MIMO FCC ID: SA3-AGN0901AP0100 MPE Calculations The EUT has two radio boards , one operating at 2.4 GHz, the other operating at 5 GHz. Each radio uses 3 antennas in MIMO (multiple in, multiple out) configuration. Two of the antennas are transmit/receive, the third antenna is receive only. The receive only antenna is the center antenna of each triplet. Each transmit antenna is fed half the total radio output power at that frequency. The maximum RF exposure will be when both transmitter cards are transmitting data at their highest power settings. Maximum Power output: 24.25 dBm ( 2412 MHz in 802.11b mode) Antenna gain, 3 dBi One-half power (power in each TX chain): 21.25 dBm Maximum EIRP from each 2.4 GHz transmit antenna is 21.25 + 3 = 24.25 dBm EIRP To determine the overall exposure at 20 cm from the EUT, the contribution from each antenna will be added and then compared to the limit of 1 mW/cm 2 TOP VIEW EUT 13,63 cm 6.82 cm d1 d2 A point 20 cm from the center of the EUT is intuitively the point at which both antennas are at their minimum separation distance, meaning the greatest field strength contribution will be located here. This is the result of a number of iterations of the calculation spread sheet, choosing different locations along the length of the EUT for exposure points. Power density decreases as the square of the separation distance, so that even if the 20 cm point is directly in front of one of the antennas, the contributions from the other antenna is less. RX/TX1 RX RX/TX2 Antenna 1 distance to d1: 20 cm Antenna 2 distance to d1: ( 13.63 2 + 20 2 ) 0.5 = 24.2 cm = 0.242m Antenna 1 distance to d2: ( 6.82 2 + 20 2 ) 0.5 = 21.13 cm = 0.213m Antenna 2 distance to d2: ( 6.82 2 + 20 2 ) 0.5 = 21.13cm = 0.213m The field strength contribution from each antenna is calculated using the equation E, V/m = (30*EIRP,watts) 0.5 /separation distance Maximum EIRP from each 2.4 GHz transmit antenna is 24.25 dBm EIRP = 0.266 watt EIRP S, mW/cm2 = E 2 /3770 , E in V/m 20 cm exposure distances were calculated for points d1 and d2 Worst case data was at d2. Total exposure at d2: 0.09482 mW/cm 2 Limit: 1.00000 mW/cm 2
