Chapter 1 Introduction
1. Introduction
WN8522D is a dual band wireless 802.11n USB Adapter which enables wireless networking
systems to attain data communication speeds up to 300 megabits-per-second (Mbps), while
remaining backward compatible to the existing installed base of Wi-Fi systems worldwide. It
supports operation to the IEEE 802.11a/b and IEEE 802.11g ,and draft IEEE 802.11n
standards.
WN8522B will enable a next generation of high-data-rate platforms for operation in the 2.4
GHz band that deliver a five-fold speed increase. The cost and performance advantages will
make it an ideal solution for high bandwidth enterprise applications, such as wireless video
conferencing and large file transfers. It is compatible with 802.11g standard's mandatory
modulation schemes—Complementary Code Keying (CCK), which is used in 802.11b, and
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), used in 802.11g and draft 802.11n.
Using CCK ensures backward-compatibility with the installed Wi-Fi 802.11b base, while
OFDM provides the speed required for today's high-bandwidth applications.
1.1 Product Features
High speed for wireless LAN connection, RX up at 300 Mbps data rate.
Backward compatible to the existing IEEE 802.11a/b/g WLAN infrastructure.
User-friendly utility to configure SSID, security setup and site survey.
Wireless data encryption with 64, 128 encryption for security.
Support USB v2.0
1.2 Applications
Home networking for device sharing.
Wireless multimedia.

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. Selection of other channels is not possible.
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operation in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
This device is going to be operated in 5.15~5.25GHz frequency range, it
is restricted in indoor environment only.
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:
Product Specification
WN8522D 10 20
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.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This module is intended for OEM integrator. The OEM integrator is still responsible for
the FCC compliance requirement of the end product, which integrates this module.
20cm minimum distance has to be able to be maintained between the antenna and
the users for the host this module is integrated into. Under such configuration, the
FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an population/uncontrolled environment
can be satisfied.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void
the user's authority to operate this equipment.
USERS MANUAL OF THE END PRODUCT:
In the users manual of the end product, the end user has to be informed to keep at
least 20cm separation with the antenna while this end product is installed and
operated. The end user has to be informed that the FCC radio-frequency exposure
guidelines for an uncontrolled environment can be satisfied. The end user has to also
be informed that any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
manufacturer could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. If the size of
the end product is smaller than 8x10cm, then additional FCC part 15.19 statement is
required to be available in the users manual: This device complies with Part 15 of
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.
LABEL OF THE END PRODUCT:
The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following " Contains
TX FCC ID:RAXWN8522D10". If the size of the end product is larger than 8x10cm,
then the following FCC part 15.19 statement has to also be available on the label:
This device complies with Part 15 of 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.
Product Specification
WN8522D 10 21
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B conforme á la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference
that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio
exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit
pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage
radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
For product available in the USA/Canada market, only channel 1~11 can be
operated. Selection of other channels is not possible.
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operation in conjunction with
any other antenna or transmitter.
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an
antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by
Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna
type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power
(e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.
IC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with IC RSS-102 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.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This module is intended for OEM integrator. The OEM integrator is still responsible for
the IC compliance requirement of the end product, which integrates this module.
20cm minimum distance has to be able to be maintained between the antenna and
the users for the host this module is integrated into. Under such configuration, the IC
