Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. 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.
This device is restricted for indoor use.
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.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This module is intended for OEM integrator. This module is only FCC authorized for the
specific rule parts listed on the grant, and that the host product manufacturer is
responsible for compliance to any other FCC rules that apply to the host not covered by
the modular transmitter grant of certification. The final host product still requires Part 15
Subpart B compliance testing with the modular transmitter installed.
Additional testing and certification may be necessary when multiple modules are used.
USERS MANUAL OF THE END PRODUCT:
In the user’s manual of the end product, the end user has to be informed to keep at least
20cm separation with the antenna while this end product is installed and operated. The
end user has to be informed that the FCC radio-frequency exposure guidelines for an
uncontrolled environment can be satisfied.
The end user has to also be informed that any changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the manufacturer could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.

1. General Description
1.1 Product Overview and Functional Description
AzureWave Technologies, Inc. introduces the IEEE 802.11ac/a/b/g/n 2X2 MU-MIMO WLAN &
Bluetooth NGFF module --- AW-CB250NF. The module is targeted to mobile devices including
Notebook, TV, Tablet and Gaming Device which need small package module, low power consumption,
multiple interfaces and OS support. By using AW-CB250NF, the customers can easily enable the Wi-Fi,
and BT embedded applications with the benefits of high design flexibility, short development cycle,
and quick time-to-market.
Compliance with the IEEE 802.11ac/a/b/g/n standard supporting 802.11ac Wave 2, the AW-CB250NF
uses Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS), Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM),
DBPSK, DQPSK, CCK and QAM baseband modulation technologies. A high level of integration and full
implementation of the power management functions specified in the IEEE 802.11 standard minimize the
system power requirements by using AW-CB250NF. In addition to the support of WPA/WPA2 and WEP
64-bit and 128-bit encryption, the AW-CB250NF also supports the IEEE 802.11i security standard
through the implementation of Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)/Counter Mode CBC-MAC
Protocol (CCMP), Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) with Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP),
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)/Cipher-Based Message Authentication Code (CMAC), and WLAN
Authentication and Privacy Infrastructure (WAPI) security mechanisms.
For the video, voice and multimedia applications the AW-CB250NF support 802.11e Quality of Service
(QoS). The device also supports 802.11h Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) for detecting radar
pulses when operating in the 5GHz range.
For Bluetooth operation, AW-CB250NF is Bluetooth 5.0 (supports Low Energy).
AW-CB250NF supports PCIE, USB 3.0/2.0, and high speed UART interfaces for WLAN and Bluetooth
to the host processor.
AW-CB250NF is suitable for multiple mobile processors for different applications with the support
cellular phone co-existence. AW-CB250NF module adopts Marvell’s latest highly-integrated dual-band
WLAN & Bluetooth SoC---88W8997. All the other components are implemented by all means to reach
the mechanical specification required.
