A. Conditions on using BRCM regulatory approvals:

1. Antennas must be installed to provide 20 cm separation distance from the transmitting antenna to

the body of user during normal operating condition AND only those antennas filed under FCC ID:
QDS-BRCM1062 with same type and lesser gain can be used with this device.

2. When the Module is installed in a netbook/notebook/laptop/tablet PC where the antenna location is

less than 20 cm separation distance to the body of the user, additional equipment authorization is
required except the conditions evaluated for the specific host (MacBook Pro Model A1425) listed
below :

I. Antenna must be installed at the position to provide at least 7 mm to the body of user.

Antenna-to-user distance is measured by positioning display screen open 90 degree to
the keyboard. For antenna is not embedded in the display section, the distance is
measured between the nearest point between antenna to the edge/surface of device;
and

II. Antenna-to-Antenna separation distance shall be greater than 5 cm between each of

transmitting antenna; and

III. Antenna structures must be similar to the one documented in FCC filing. Variation on

the antenna structure may contribute difference SAR readings even if antenna is the
same type. It the antenna(s) used is different than the ones in FCC filing; it is
required for host integrator to consult with Broadcom in determining applicability of
approval condition.

3. The regulatory label on the final system must include the statement:“Contains FCC ID:

QDS-BRCM1062”or using electronic labeling method as documented in KDB 784748.

4. The final system integrator must ensure there is no instruction provided in the user manual or

customer documentation indicating how to install or remove the transmitter module except such
device has implemented two-ways authentication between module and the host system.

5. Simultaneous Transmission Requirements
I. When multiple transmitters and antennas transmit simultaneously in a

laptop/notebook/netbook /tablet, the following may be used to determine simultaneous
transmission SAR evaluation reduction or exclusion requirements.

(i) Identify all possible combinations of simultaneous transmission configurations for all

transmitters and antennas installed in the display screen and keyboard of the intended
host computer configurations

(ii) Drawings showing antenna locations and separation distances between each of

simultaneous transmitting antenna(s) and antenna-to-user.

(iii) FCC ID of all transmitters, maximum average conducted output power in each

transmission mode and frequency band, operating configurations and exposure
conditions approved for the individual transmitters.

(iv) The type and physical dimensions of antennas incorporated in the intended host

configurations

(v) Antenna gain specified by the antenna manufacturer for antennas qualified for mobile

exposure conditions

(vi) other relevant information and restrictions required by the equipment certifications of

individual transmitters, including antenna changes
For each simultaneous transmission configuration identified in 5.I, if the conditions in a) or b) below
are satisfied and fully documented in the SAR report or Class I permissive change documentation,
simultaneous transmission SAR evaluation is not required for that configuration

a) When the [(Σ of the highest measured 1-g SAR for each portable transmitter/antenna included
in the simultaneous transmission configuration) / 1.6 W/kg] + Σ of [(the highest MPE for each
mobile transmitter/antenna included in the simultaneous transmission configuration) / (the
corresponding MPE limit)] < 1; or
b) For antennas included in the simultaneous transmission configuration that require SAR
evaluation, when the separation distance between each antenna pair is greater than 5 · [(SAR1 +
SAR2) / 1.6]

1.5

cm, rounded to the nearest cm, and the Σ of [(the highest MPE for each mobile
transmitter/antenna included in the simultaneous transmission configuration) / (the
corresponding MPE limit)] < 1

Where: Σ in a) excludes antennas that do not require SAR evaluation, and MPE does not apply to
displays < 10” diagonal for both a) and b)
(Above simultaneous assessment guideline can be found at FCC web site under KDB 616217.

https://apps.fcc.gov/oetcf/kdb/forms/FTSSearchResultPage.cfm?switch=P&id=33240

6. If simultaneous transmission condition does not meet requirements described above, please contact

Broadcom who is responsible for product compliance to determine the applicable simultaneous
transmission SAR evaluation procedures and applicable equipment authorization procedure. Module
must be installed and used in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions as described in
the user documentation that comes with the product.

B. RegulatoryComplianceStatementintheUserManual

A user’s manual or instruction manual must be included with the customer product that contains the
text as required by applicable law. Without limitation of the foregoing, an example (for illustration
purposes only) of possible text to include is set forth below:

a.

FCC COMPLIANCE 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
harmful 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 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. If not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, it 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 tuning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try and correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:

-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

-Increase the distance between the equipment and the receiver.

-Connect the equipment to 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.

CAUTION: (this only applicable to 5GHz device) this device is restricted to indoor use due to
its operation in the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz frequency range. FCC requires this product to be used
indoors for frequency range 5.15 to 5.25 GHz to reduce the potential for harmful interference to
co-channel Mobile Satellite systems. High power radars are allocated as primary users of the

5.25 to 5.35 GHz and 5.65 to 5.85 GHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference with
and/or damage this device.
