Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement 
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. 
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 transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or 
transmitter. 
Operations in the 5.15-5.25GHz band are restricted to indoor usage only.   
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. 

          Confidential    Page 6 
This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions: 
1) The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the 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 be required. However, the 
OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance 
requirements required with this module installed 
IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions cannot 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 cannot 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 only for use in device where the antenna may be installed 
such that 20 cm may be maintained between the antenna and users. The final end product must be 
labeled in a visible area with the following: “Contains FCC ID: HDCWLAN194XF2”. The 
grantee's FCC ID can be used only when all FCC compliance requirements are met. 
Manual Information To the End User 
The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to 
install or remove this RF module in the user’s manual of the end product which integrates this 
module. 
The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warning as show in this 
manual.

Industry Canada statement: 
This device complies with RSS-247 of the Industry Canada 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. 
Ce dispositif est conforme à la norme CNR-247 d'Industrie Canada applicable aux appareils radio 
exempts de licence. Son fonctionnement est sujet aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) le dispositif ne 
doit pas produire de brouillage préjudiciable, et (2) ce dispositif doit accepter tout brouillage reçu, y 
compris un brouillage susceptible de provoquer un fonctionnement indésirable.   
Radiation Exposure Statement: 
This  equipment  complies  with  IC  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. 
Déclaration d'exposition aux radiations: 
Cet  équipement  est  conforme  aux  limites  d'exposition  aux  rayonnements  IC  établies  pour  un 
environnement non contrôlé. Cet équipement doit être installé et utilisé avec un minimum de 20cm 
de distance entre la source de rayonnement et votre corps. 
This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions:   
(For module device use)
1) The antenna must be installed such that 20cm is maintained between the 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 be required. However, the 
OEM  integrator  is  still  responsible  for  testing  their  end-product  for  any  additional  compliance 
requirements required with this module installed. 
Cet appareil est conçu uniquement pour les intégrateurs OEM dans les conditions suivantes: (Pour 
utilisation de dispositif module) 
1) L'antenne doit être installée de telle sorte qu'une distance de 20cm est respectée entre l'antenne et 
les utilisateurs, et   
2) Le module émetteur peut ne pas être coïmplanté avec un autre émetteur ou antenne. 
Tant  que  les  2  conditions  ci-dessus  sont  remplies,  des  essais  supplémentaires  sur  l'émetteur  ne 

          Confidential    Page 8 
seront  pas  nécessaires.  Toutefois,  l'intégrateur  OEM  est  toujours  responsable  des  essais  sur  son 
produit final pour toutes exigences de conformité supplémentaires requis pour ce module installé. 
IMPORTANT NOTE: 
In  the  event  that  these  conditions  cannot  be  met  (for  example  certain  laptop  configurations  or 
co-location with another transmitter), then the Canada authorization is no longer considered valid 
and the IC ID cannot 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 
Canada authorization. 
NOTE IMPORTANTE:
Dans le cas où ces conditions ne peuvent être satisfaites (par exemple pour certaines configurations 
d'ordinateur portable ou de certaines co-localisation avec un autre émetteur), l'autorisation du 
Canada n'est plus considéré comme valide et l'ID IC ne peut pas être utilisé sur le produit final. 
Dans ces circonstances, l'intégrateur OEM sera chargé de réévaluer le produit final (y compris 
l'émetteur) et l'obtention d'une autorisation distincte au Canada.
End Product Labeling 
This transmitter module is authorized only for use in device where the antenna may be installed 
such that 20 cm may be maintained between the antenna and users. The final end product must be 
labeled in a visible area with the following: “Contains IC: 2250A-WLAN194XF2”.   
Plaque signalétique du produit final 
Ce module émetteur  est  autorisé  uniquement pour  une utilisation  dans  un  dispositif  où l'antenne 
peut être installée de telle sorte qu'une distance de 20cm peut être maintenue entre l'antenne et les 
utilisateurs.  Le produit final  doit être étiqueté dans un  endroit  visible avec l'inscription  suivante: 
"Contient des IC: 2250A-WLAN194XF2".
