This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the 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 and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, 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 turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the 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 help

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.

FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.

IMPORTANT NOTE

FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.

NTRODUCTION

The SpeedTouch 180 is an IEEE 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Access Point with switchable repeater mode and Ethernet client mode. It provides transparent, wireless high-speed data communications between the wired LAN (and/or within the wireless network) and fixed, portable or mobile devices equipped with an 802.11b/g wireless adapter employing the same radio modulation.

About the SpeedTouch 180

The SpeedTouch 180 offers fast, reliable wireless connectivity with considerable cost savings over wired LANs (which include long-term maintenance overhead for cabling). New technology provides wireless security via Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption, Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA), and MAC address filtering.

Features and Benefits

• Wireless connection using IEEE 802.11b/g technology

• When working in Client Bridge mode, the SpeedTouch 180 allows the wired Ethernet equipped device work wirelessly at 54Mbps

• DHCP for dynamic IP configuration, and DNS for domain name mapping

• Easy setup through a web browser on any operating system that supports TCP/IP

• WDS (Wireless Distribution System) is supported.

System Requirements

Your system must meet the following minimum requirements:

• A PC using a fixed IP address or dynamic IP address assigned via DHCP, as well as a gateway server address and DNS server address from your service provider.

• An A/C power outlet (100~240 V, 50~60 Hz) which will supply power for the device.

• A computer equipped with a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet network interface card, or a USB-to-Ethernet converter or an IEEE 802.11b/g wireless network adapter.

• TCP/IP network protocols installed on each PC that will access the Internet.

• A Java-enabled web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 or above installed on one PC at your site for configuring the wireless gateway.

Hardware Description

The SpeedTouch 180 connects to the Internet or to a remote site using its RJ-45 WAN port. It can be connected directly to your PC or to a local area network using the 10/100 Mbps LAN port.

The data transmission speed between wired devices connected to your local area network can run at up to 100 Mbps. Wireless connections can run up to 54 Mbps with 11g wireless network.
