About this Document
This document is a product manual for the B2CC050AA-A 2.3 GHz WCS band
Backhaul Radio Module 1, including its limitations on use in any product
marketed or offered for sale. It is intended as a supplement to training and
documentation by BelAir Networks Inc. or its authorized agents.

WRM Product Manual – 2.3 GHz WCS Band Radio Module
Introduction
The B2CC050AA-A (hereafter referred to as “the module”) is a 2.3 GHz WCS
band radio module compatible with the IEEE 802.16 standard for WIMAX
operation. The module contains a complete 802.16 radio and Medium Access
Control protocol engine.
The module is not intended for stand-alone operation. It will only be marketed
as a complete product, in conjunction with a package, DC power supply and
antenna (hereafter referred to as “the product” or the “final product”).
Since the module has a BelAir networks proprietary digital interface, it cannot
be directly connected to any standard telecommunications or computer devices.
It can only be used with final products designed and authorized specifically for
that purpose.

Warning: Use of this module in conjunction with any antenna not
expressly listed above will void authority to install or operate this equipment.
Products which contain B2CC050AA-A shall only be installed by professional
installers trained by BelAir Networks or its authorized agents. In addition to
normal installation procedures and good installation practice, professional
installers are responsible to ensure that:
1. Only an approved antenna (see above) is connected to the module, and,
2. The antenna is mounted in such a manner and in such a location that access
to the antenna by the general population is minimized. Access during
normal operation to the antenna by the general population should be limited
distances as outlined in the Table 1 in the section on RF Exposure
Statement.
Adherence to these rules by the professional installer is mandatory. See full
installation procedures for the particular product for details.
