3. Introduction
G-663 is an IEEE 802.11g 54Mbps wireless LAN module. It operates at 2.4GHz unlicensed
frequency band for wireless networks in the home or office environment. Base on the Ti TNETW1350A
chipset. G-663 supports rapid data transfer rate up to 54Mbps and users could work anywhere in the
coverage area and enjoy the convenience and mobility of wireless.
The G-663 also backward compatible with 802.11b access point by using 802.11b standard.
Wireless G-663 also provides a high quality utility, including site survey tool, to allow user easy setting and
maintain wireless networking activities. With built-in IEEE 802.1x client support and dynamic WEP key
exchange features, Wireless G-663 provides best security access.
4. Features
• IEEE 802.11g complies.
• Backward compatible with IEEE 802.11b standard.
• Wire-free access to networked resources from anywhere beyond the desktop.
• Interference resistant designed guarantee reliable performance.
• Delivers data rate up to 54 Mbps.
• Dynamically shifts between 54, 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 11, 9, 6, 5.5, 2, 1 Mbps network speed, based
on signal strength, for maximum availability and reliability of connection.
• Allows users move between Access Points without resetting their connection reconfiguration.
• Uses 2.4GHz frequency band, which complies with worldwide requirement
• Support WPA2 and AES
• Support WDS, WMM,mSSID,
• Dynamic WEP key exchange support
Remark: * Future support

FCC Statement
Warning:Changes or modificatio ns to this unit not expressly approved by th e party responsible for
compliance could void the user authority to operate the equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
twoconditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
NOTE:
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 r adio co mmun ication s. Howev er, there i s no g uarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determin ed by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more 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 d ifferent from that to which the receiver is
needed. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for help.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
CAUTION:
1. To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, a separation di stance of at lea st 20 cm
must be maintained between the antenna of this device and all persons.
2. This Transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter
This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions:
1) The antenna must be installed su ch that 20 cm is maintained b etween the antenna and users. For
ZyXEL Communications Corp. Proprietary & Confidential Information
Specifications are subject to change without notice
laptop installations, the antenna must be installed to ensure that the proper spacing is maintained in the
event the users places the device in their lap duri ng use (i.e. posi tioning of antennas must b e placed in
the upper portion of the LCD panel only to ensure 20 cm will be maintained if the user places the
device in their lap for use) and
2) The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna. As long as the
2 conditions above are met, further transmitter testing 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, digital device emissions, PCperipheral 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 authorization is no longer
considered valid and the FCC ID can not be used on the final product. In these
circumstances, the 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 on ly for use i n devices where the ant enna may be installed suc h
that 20 cm may be maintained between the antenna and users (for example access points, routers,
wireless ASDL modems, certain laptop configurations, and similar equipment). The final end product
must be labeled in a visible area with the following: "Contains TX FCC ID: I88G663".
RF Exposure Manual Information That Must be Included
The users 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 or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter."
Additional Information That Must be Provided to OEM Integrators
The end user should NOT be provided any instructions on how to remove or install the device.
