802.11b/g Radio
Preliminary Product Details
Product Description
Airgo Network’s AGN0922AR-01 product design is based on Airgo’s advanced three- receiver
AGN103BB (using two of the three available receiver chains) and AGN100RF chipset. The product is
designed specifically for low cost Broadband Gateways and other similar Access Point applications. Airgo
Network’s patented multi-antenna technology yields enhanced range and provides data rates of up to 10
times the competition at the same range. Airgo’s patented True MIMOTM multi-antenna technology enables
the AGN0922AR-01 to deliver 108 Mbps data rates in a single 20 MHz channel that is legal worldwide.
Full support for IEEE 802.11b/g standards allows for an unprecedented level of backwards compatibility
and performance at all data rates. Airgo Networks has shattered the previous definition of range, speed
giving you maximum performance and feature advantages.
Figure 1 AGN0922AR-02
Users will no longer be frustrated by severe degradations in performance as they move away from Access
Points (APs). Airgo’s technology delivers up to five times the range and ten times the data rates of other
vendor solutions, thus significantly increasing network capacity and reducing total cost of ownership.
Although the AGN0922AR-01 displays high performance and range in any Wi-Fi environment, its file
transfer rate, robustness and range are greatly enhanced when it is used in conjunction with Airgo’s True
MIMOTM -based Client Adapters, with data rates up to 108 Mbps.
Airgo’s patented True MIMOTM multi-antenna technology also permits the AGN100922AR-01 to
communicate simultaneously with legacy devices at standard 802.11 b/g rates, while communicating with
Airgo True MIMOTM enabled devices (APs and clients) at data rates up to 108 Mbps. This is enabled by the
AGN0922AR-01’s use of True MIMOTM or standards compliant modulation on a packet by packet basis,
depending on the capability of the device at the other end of the link.

AGN0922AR-01 Installation
The AGN0922AR-01 is designed specifically for Broadband Gateways and other similar Access Point
applications. The AGN0922AR-01 uses a miniPCI connector for insertion into an attaching system.
However, the AGN0922AR-01 does not conform to the miniPCI PCB size or power restrictions.
Below is a “typical” AGN0922AR-01 module installation:
•
Align the miniPCI connector on the AGN0922AR-01 with the miniPCI receptacle on the attaching
system, taking care to fit the notch in the bottom left of the radio module with the tab on the
miniPCI receptacle on the attaching system (see Figure 3).
•
Firmly press the radio card towards the attaching system until the clips engage.
•
Disseminating end-user documentation for the installation/removal of the AGN0922AR-01 is
expressly prohibited by regulatory statues.

Regulatory
Product Labeling
The AGN0922AR-01 radio transmitter module is authorized only for use in a device where the antenna
may be installed such that 20 cm can be maintained between the antenna and the users. End-user products
containing AGN0922AR-01 modules MUST have affixed to their labels the following phrase:
This product contains FCC ID: SA3-AGN0922AR0100 modules.
Product Usage
This device is intended only for OEM/ODM integrators under the following conditions:
1.
The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and users.
2.
The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna.
3.
Use only authorized antenna(s) as described in the FCC filing under FCCID:SA3AGN0922AR0100
The OEM/ODM integrator is responsible for testing their product for any additional compliance mandates
required when this module is installed within an end-user product.
i IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions cannot be met,
then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID
number cannot be used on the final product and thus the OEM/ODM
integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including
the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.
Product Documentation
Following RF exposure information shall be supplied in end-users manual for products containing the
AGN0922AR-01:
IMPORTANT NOTE:
To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the antennas
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.
