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.

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.

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.

IC Statement
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
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.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme á la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
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.
The device could automatically discontinue transmission in case of absence of
information to transmit, or operational failure. Note that this is not intended to prohibit
transmission of control or signaling information or the use of repetitive codes where
required by the technology.
The device for the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor usage to reduce potential
for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems.
The maximum antenna gain permitted (for devices in the bands 5250-5350 MHz and
5470-5725 MHz) to comply with the e.i.r.p. limit.
The maximum antenna gain permitted (for devices in the band 5725-5825 MHz) to
comply with the e.i.r.p. limits specified for point-to-point and non point-to-point
operation as appropriate, as stated in section A9.2(3).
High-power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority) of the
bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and these radars could cause
interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices.
