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 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 or more of the following
measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment.
Operations in the 5.15-5.25 GHz band are restricted to indoor usage only
FCC Caution

4RF Exposure Information (SAR)
This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. This
device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to
radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the
U.S. Government.
The exposure standard for wireless device employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. *Tests for
SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the
device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR
level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the
poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base
station antenna, the lower the power output.
SAR compliance has been established in the host product(s) (laptop computers), tested
at 5mm separation distance to the human body, and tested with USB slot configurations
including Horizontal-UP, Horizontal-Down, Vertical-Front, Vertical-Back. This device
can be used in host product(s) with substantially similar physical dimensions,
construction, and electrical and RF characteristics.
The highest SAR value, tested per FCC RF exposure guidelines for USB dongle, as
described in this user guide, is 0.67 W/kg. The FCC has granted an Equipment
Authorization for this device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance
with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device is on file with
the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid
after searching on FCC ID: NDD9562881314.
Federal Communication Commission (FCC) Radiation Exposure
Statement
This EUT is compliance with SAR for general population/uncontrolled exposure limits
in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1999 and had been tested in accordance with the measurement
methods and procedures specified in OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C. This equipment
should be installed and operated with minimum distance 0.5cm between the radiator &
your body.
