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. 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. 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. IMPORTANT NOTE: FCC Radiation Exposure Statement: This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. The availability of some specific channels and/or operational frequency bands are country dependent and are firmware programmed at the factory to match the intended destination. The firmware setting is not accessible by the end user. 4 CE Mark Warning This is a Class B product. In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio interference, in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures. This transmitter must not be co-located or operation in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. 5 Table of Contents Federal Communications Commission Interference statement 3 CE Mark Warning 4 Chapter 1 - Getting Started with the WPC-370Ｌ ＬＬ Ｌ 6 Chapter 2 - Wireless LAN Networking 7 Transmission Rate (Transfer Rate) 7 Type of Wireless Networks 7 Wireless LAN Security 11 Chapter 3 - Hardware and Wireless Utility 13 About Your 11n (Draft) Wireless PCI Adapter 13 Package Content 13 System Requirement 13 LED Definition 13 Hardware and Wireless Utility Installation 14 Using the Utility to Configure Your Network 17 Chapter 4 – Maintenance 26 Uninstall the Driver 26 Uninstall the Client Utility 26 Upgrading the Wireless Utility 26 Glossary 27 6 Chapter 1 - Getting Started with the WPC-370L Congratulations on purchasing the WPC-370L!

T HE INFORMATION IN THIS SECTION IS FOR YOUR REFERENCE. CHANGING NETWORK SETTINGS AND PARTICULARLY SECURITY SETTTINGS SHOULD ONLY BE DONE BY AN AUTHORIZED ADMINISTRATOR. Transmission Rate (Transfer Rate) The WPC-370L provides various transmission (data) rate options for you to select. In most networking scenarios, the factory default Fully Auto setting proves the most efficient. This setting allows your WPC-370L to operate at the maximum transmission (data) rate. When the communication quality drops below a certain level, the WPC-370L automatically switches to a lower transmission (data) rate. Transmission at lower data speeds is usually more reliable. However, when the communication quality improves again, the WPC-370L gradually increases the transmission (data) rate again until it reaches the highest a…

FCC ID: SI5WPC370L Report No. RF960721L02 Operational Description This device is an 2.4GHz 802.11n (Draft 2.0) PCI Adapter, which operates in the 2.4GHz frequency spectrum with throughput of up to 300Mbps which OFDM technique will be applied. If the signal to noise radio is too poor which could not support 300Mbps, the 11Mbps data rate with DSSS technique will be applied. The transmitter of the EUT is powered by host equipment. The antenna is Dipole antenna with R-SMA connector. The other instruction, please have a look at the users manual.

ADDRESS: 9F, No. 1, Jin-shan 7th St., Hsinchu 300, Taiwan, R.O.C. ISSUED BY: Advance Data Technology Corporation LAB ADDRESS: 47 14 th Lin, Chiapau Tsun, Linko, Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C. TEST LOCATION: No. 19, Hwa Ya 2 nd Rd., Kueishan, Taoyuan, Taiwan, R.O.C. FCC ID: SI5WPC370L Report No: SA960721L02 2 RF EXPOSURE MEASUREMENT (MOBILE 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/1500 30 1500-100,000 ... ... 1.0 30 F = Frequency in MHz FCC ID: SI5WPC370L Report No: SA960721L02 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 r.

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 device is fixed inside the host equipment. 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. FCC ID: SI5WPC370L Report No: SA960721L02 4 6.
