FCC
Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmf ul interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
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 agains t 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. Howeve r, 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, wh ich 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 equipm ent 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 approv ed by the pa rty
responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
Radiation Exposure Statement: The product comply with the FCC portable RF exposure limit set forth for an uncontrolled environment and are safe for intended operation as described in this manual. The further RF ex posure reduc tion can be achieved i f the product can be kept as far as possible from the user body or set the device to lower output power if such function is available.

Glossary
2G: Second-generation mobile networking technology. Represents a switchover from
analog to digital; most 2G networks use GSM.
3G: Third-generation mobile networking technology that enables simultaneous
transfer of voice and non-voice data; most 3G networks use WCDMA.
3.5G: A more recent standard of mobile networking techn ology; generally uses HSDPA.
3.75G: A more recent standard of mobile networking technology; generally uses HSUPA.
APN (Access Point Name/Netw ork): Provides GPRS routing information. Consists
of: Network ID: Identies the external service requested by a GPRS user. Mobile network operator ID: Species routing information.
ARFCN (Absolute Radio Frequency Channel Number): The specic ID numbers
for all radio channels used in cellular mobile communications.
bps (bits per second): How data ow is measured. CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol): CHAP identifiers are
changed frequently and authentication can be requested by the server at any time.
DNS (Domain Name System): Helps route network trafc by making the addressing
process more user-friendly.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol): How devices obtain IP addresses
from a server.
DUN (Dial-Up Network): Windows component that enables online access via a
modem.
EDGE (Enhanced Data GSM Environment/Enhanced Data for Global Evolution):
Advanced GPRS that delivers multimedia and other data needing greater bandwidth at up to 237 kbps.
GPRS (General Packet Radio Service): Delivers da ta in packets at up to 86 kbps. GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications): The most popular cellular
network, mostly operates in 85 0-900 or 1800-1900 MHz; the primary 2G syst em.
HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet Access): Advanced WCDMA that delivers
downlink bandwidth intensive data at up to 7.2Mbp s; typically associated with
3.5G.
HSUPA (High Speed Uplink Packet Access): Adv anced WCDMA that deliv ers
uplink bandwidth intensive data at up to 5.76Mbps; typically associated with
3.75G.
HSPA+ (High Speed Packet Ac cess +): This is also known as HSPA Evolved, is the
next step and is more focused on delivering data services enabling speeds of up to 42Mbps in the downlink and 11Mbps in the uplink.
IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity): A number unique to each
47
GSM/UMTS device that can be used block network access by a stolen mobile device.
IP (Internet Protocol): Routes packets over a network. Kbps (Kilobits per second): A data ow measure; 1024 bits/second. LAN (Local Area Netw ork): A data network with limited range but good bandwidth. Mbps (Megabits per second): A data ow measure; 1,048,576 bits/second. P AP (Password Authentication Protocol): The difference between PAP
authentication and a manual or scripted login, is that PAP is not interactive. The username and password are entered in the client's dialing software and sent as one data package as soon as the modems ha ve establi shed a connecti on, rather than the server sending a login prompt and waiting for a response.
PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol): An internet connection method. PIN (Personal Identity Number): Four to eight digita l n umbers SIM card security
code; allows access to the carrier’s network.
Rx: Shorthand for Reception. SIM (Subscriber Identity Module): A small card that contains key mobile device
identication, subscription and contact information.
Tx: Shorthand for Transmission. WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access): Advanced EDGE that
supports 384kbps data ow. Most 3G networks use this standard, the same as UMTS.
