Note on Stock Keeping Units (SKUs) and Local Restrictions on 802.11a and 802.11b Radio Usage
Due to the fact that the frequencies used by 802.11a and 802.11b wireless LAN devices may not yet be
harmonized in all countries, 802.11a and 802.11b products are designed for use only in specific countries,

variations are accommodated as part of the use of different stock keeping units (SKUs) for different
regions.
As suppliers of these products, OEMs and integrators are responsible for informing users of the
requirements to use the products only in the countries for which they were intended and in accordance
with the power, frequency and channel configurations permissible in the country of use. Information for
the end user on regional and country regulatory restrictions is provided in this document. It is the
responsibility of the OEM or integrator to provide this information to the end user, as appropriate for the
region or country in which the product is to be sold.
Transmit Power Restrictions
Transmit power control information to be provided to the end user is provided here only for the “SKU2”
version of the Intel® PRO/Wireless 2100A LAN MiniPCI Adapter, intended for use in the European area
(under EU and CEPT regulatory domains). See the section entitled Transmit Power Restrictions in the
European Union section of the alphabetical country listing. Guidelines for other SKUs and regions may be
obtained from your Intel representative.
General Information for All OEMs and Integrators
The following statement must be included with all versions of this document supplied to an OEM or
integrator, but should not be distributed to the end user.
This device is intended for OEM integrators only.
This device cannot be co-located with an
other transmitter.
Please refer to the full Grant of Equipment document for other restrictions.
This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions:
Note: Any U-NII device that operates in the 5.15-5.25 GHz band shall use a transmitting antenna that is
an integral part of the device.
The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm distance is maintained between the antenna and users.
For laptop installations, the antenna must be installed to ensure that the proper spacing is maintained in
the event the users place the device in their lap during use (for example, antennas must be placed in the
upper portion of the LCD panel only, to ensure 20 cm will be maintained if the user places the device in
their lap for use) and
The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna.
As long as the two conditions above are met, further transmitter testing will not be required. However,
the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end product to meet any additional compliance
requirements derived from installation of this module (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral
requirements, etc.).
IMPORTANT NOTE pertaining to FCC authorizations: In the event that the conditions stated above
cannot be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the
FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID cannot be used on the final product. In
these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including
the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.
End Product Labeling and FCC ID
This transmitter module is authorized only for use in devices where the antenna may be installed such
that 20 cm distance may be maintained between the antenna and users (for example access points,
routers, wireless ASDL modems, certain laptop configurations, and similar equipment). The final end
product must be labeled in a visible area with the following: "Contains TX FCC ID:

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX," where XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX is replaced by the FCC ID on the module being
integrated.
FCC RF Exposure Information That Must Be Included in the User’s Manual
The manual or documentation for end users must include the following information in a prominent location:
"IMPORTANT NOTE: To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the antenna used for
this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and
must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter."
Additional Information That Must be Provided to OEM Integrators
No instructions are to be provided to the end user on how to remove or install the device.
