About This User Manual
This user manual provides detailed specifications, diagrams and additional information required to install the SXSDWAG 802.11a/b/g SDIO module into a product. The intended audiences are the developers and engineers
responsible for the integration of the module in another product.
Safety Precautions
To prevent damage to the SX-SDWAG-02 module’s electronic circuit components, follow established ESD
practices and procedures for handling static-sensitive devices. All ESD-sensitive components must be
stored and shipped in ESD-conductive bags or bubble-wrap and labeled as such using the standardized
ESD adhesive warning label.
Ethernet electrical wiring must be at least 6 feet from bare power wiring or lightning rods and associated
wires, and at least 6 inches from other types of wire (antenna wires, doorbell wires, wires from transformers
to neon signs), steam or hot water pipes, and heating devices.
Protectors and grounding wire placed by the service provider must not be connected to, removed, or
modified by the customer.
Emissions Disclaimer
Final emission certification per FCC, CE and other agency requirements are the responsibility of the OEM (refer
to chapter 2 for additional information).
