FCC Statement:
Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
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.
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.


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.


For product available in the USA/Canada market, only channel 1~11 can be operated.

OEM Integrator Checklist
The party below will implement the LITE-ON Module in host systems in accordance with the
instructions specified in this document and the documents referenced herein.
1. The OEM integrator will ensure the Module is integrated in a host systems using only the
    approved antenna model(s) described in this document.
2. The OEM integrator will ensure the antenna placement inside the host system will
                                           Page 4/18


    maintain the required spacing to end user for RF Exposure compliance, as specified in this
    document.
3. If other radios are integrated inside the host with the LITE-ON Module, the OEM
    integrator will contact its test lab, TCB or LITE-ON to determine if additional FCC
    compliance evaluation is required to meet FCC collocation rules.
4. The OEM integrator will ensure end user documentation will contain the specified
    regulatory wording and ensure the host system and the Module itself are labeled as
    specified in this document.
5. The OEM integrator will ensure the Module is programmed in the factory with compliant
transmit power not exceeding the levels specified in this document.
LITE-ON requests that the OEM integrator acknowledge its receipt of this document and the
above instructions. You may contact LITE-ON with any questions concerning this document or
the responsibilities of the OEM integrator.
