FCC Statement
This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following
1) The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between antenna
and users, and
2) The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or
antenna.
As long as 2 conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not required. However,
the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with module installed (for example, digital device emissions,
PC peripheral requirements, etc.).
Important Note
In the event that these conditions can not be example certain laptop configurations or colocation with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered
valid the FCC ID can not be used on the final product. In these circumstances, OEM
integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter)
and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.

End Product Labeling
This transmitter module is authorized only for use in device where antenna may be
installed such that 20 cm may be maintained between antenna and users (for example
access points, routers, wireless ADSL and similar equipment). The final end product
must be labeled in a area with the following: “ Contains TX FCC ID: I4L-MS3870”.
Manual Information for End Users
The end user must not have manual instructions to remove or install device. The user
manual 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 operating in conjunction with
any other antenna or transmitter.” as a result of e-mail transmission.”
Important Safety Precautions

Introduction
>>> 1.1 CM11BGN-BT (MS-3870) - Wireless 11b/g/n +
Bluetooth BT2.1 Combo Slim Module
MSI CM11BGN-BT (MS-3870), the Wireless 11b/g/n +
Bluetooth Combo Slim Module, which can be used to integrate
with such systems as notebook, mini-barebone, portable PC.
With MSI MS-3870 embedded inside, a system could provide
users with the ability and flexibility to connect up to Internet
wirelessly via 802.11b/g/n with speed up to 150Mbps, and to
link with peripherals wirelessly through BluetoothTM v2.1 and
advanced EDR (Enhanced Data Rate) technology. Bluetooth
v2.1 technology increases the data rate of BluetoothTM v1.1/1.2
from 1.0Mbps to 2.1Mbps.
MSI MS-3870 is taking advantage of leading technologies from
Ralink and CSR. It addresses the co-existence issues in PAN
(Personal Area Network) and WLAN (Wireless Local Area
Network) markets by providing true simultaneous connectivity
while deploying IEEE 802.11b/g/n and Bluetooth v2.1 Along
with this combo solution, a system installed with a single module is able to offer dual mode capability of WiFi and BluetoothTM.
It will benefit system vendors in miniaturization of system dimension and BOM cost reduction, as well as also make users
happy with the all-in-one functionality.

>>> 1.2 How MS-3870 Works
In WLAN Environment1.2.1
Ad-hoc Mode : An Ad-hoc network is a local area network or
other small network, especially one with wireless or temporary
plug-in connections, in which some of the network devices are
part of the network only for the duration of a communications
session. Users in the network can share files, print to a shared
printer, and access the Internet with a shared modem. In this
kind of network, new devices can be quickly added; however,
users can only communicate with other wireless LAN computers that are in this wireless LAN workgroup, and are within
range.

Infrastructure Mode : The difference between Infrastructure
network and Ad-hoc network is that the former one includes an
Access Point. In an Infrastructure network, the Access Point can
manage the bandwidth to maximize bandwidth utilization. Additionally, the Access Point enables users on a wireless LAN to
access an existing wired network, allowing wireless users to take
advantage of the wired networks resources, such as Internet,
email, file transfer, and printer sharing. The scale and range of the
Infrastructure networking are larger and wider than that of the
Ad-hoc networking.
