6. Regulation information:

 6.1 USA—Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
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.

INFORMATION TO USER:

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.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

CAUTION: (this only applicable to 5GHz device)

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.
System integrators must include the FCC ID on the end product.

FCC Radio-Frequency Exposure & Approval Conditions:

1. The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be collocated or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter within a host device, except in
accordance with FCC multi-transmitter product procedures.

2. Only those antennas with same type and lesser gain filed under this FCC ID
number can be used with this device.

3. To comply with RF exposure compliance requirements, for mobile configurations,
a separation distance of at least 20cm must be maintained between the antenna of this
device and all persons.

4. The regulatory label on the final system must include the statement: “Contains FCC
ID: UFEAXE-Y1 “ or using electronic labeling method as documented in KDB

784748.

5. 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.

6. The final host manual shall include the following regulatory 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.

 6.2 Canada - Industry Canada (IC)

This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference
that may cause undesired operation of the device.

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an
antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by
Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna
type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power
(e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.

Caution: (this only applicable to UNII device)

(i) the device for operation in the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor use to

reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite
systems;

(ii) the maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the bands 5250-5350 MHz

and 5470-5725 MHz shall comply with the e.i.r.p. limit;

(iii) the maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the band 5725-5825 MHz

shall comply with the e.i.r.p. limits specified for point-to-point and non
point-to-point operation as appropriate.

High power radars are allocated as primary users of the 5.25 to 5.35 GHz and 5.65 to
