interference by one of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment 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

IMPORTANT NOTE:
IC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for
an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and
operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator and your
body.
High power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have
priority) of 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and these radars
could cause interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices.
Note: The Goldcrest has disable the 5600-5650M band by S/W to
avoid 5600-5650M band for IC certification.

This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the
End Product Labeling
following conditions:
1) The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained
between the antenna and users, and
2) The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other
transmitter or antenna,
3) For all products market in US, OEM has to limit the operation
channels in CH1 to CH11 for 2.4G band by supplied firmware
programming tool. OEM shall not supply any tool or info to the
end-user regarding to Regulatory Domain change.
As long as 3 conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not
be required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for
testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements
required with this module installed (for example, PC peripheral
requirements… etc.).
IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions can not be
met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location with
another transmitter), then the FCC/IC authorization is no longer
This transmitter module is authorized only for use in device where the
antenna may be installed such that 20 cm may be maintained
between the antenna and users. The final end product must be
labeled in a visible area with the following: “Contains FCC ID:
MXF-P970813N or IC: 3069B-WPEA113N”.
Manual Information To the End User
The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the
end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module in the
user’s manual of the end product which integrates this module.
The end user manual shall include all required regulatory
information/warning as show in this manual.

product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be
responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the
transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC/IC authorization.
