[鍵入文字]  2  I. Introduction i. Overview  Azurewave AW-NB101 combo wireless slim module is a highly integrated wireless local area network (WLAN) solution to let users enjoy the digital content through the latest wireless technology without using extra cables and cords. It provides easy-to-use, high performance, cost effective and low power solution. Moreover, AW-NB101 enables compatible high-speed wireless connectivity within home, business and public access wireless networks.  Compliant with the IEEE 802.11b/g/n standard, AW-NB101 uses Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS), Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), BPSK, QPSK, CCK and QAM baseband modulation technologies. When you are using AW-NB101, a high level of integration and full implementation of the power management functions specified in the IEEE 802.11 standard can minimize system power requirements.  The AW-NB101 802.11b/g/n Wireless Combo Slim Module provides up to 128-bit level of WEP security to your wireless data transfers. It is able to run in the operating systems of Windows XP/Vista in either Infrastructure mode or Ad-Hoc mode. Comparing to previous wireless technology, AW-NB101 got great improvements on speed and range. The wireless range increased up to two times wider and coverage area reduced the situation of dead spots. “Multiple In, Multiple Out” (MIMO) technology uses signal reflections to increase the range and maintain wireless connections up to five times farther; therefore, with MIMO, AW-NB101 is able to double the data rate up to 300Mbps.  ii.

[鍵入文字]  3  iii. Product Review   When the USB wireless module is transmitting data through connection, LED indicator will blink.  1. Connection Mode  ◎Infrastructure Mode  Infrastructure mode needs an access point to establish the network, which can provide wireless accesses within valid range for users to communicate with others or transmit data with a wired network. There are several benefits of Infrastructure networking:  √ Roaming: a wireless LAN enabled computer can physically move from the operating range of one access point to the other without losing connection. There is a quick association made between new access point and wireless device as the computer traverses from the coverage of one access point to another. √ Range Extension: each wireless LAN enabled computer within the range of access point can communicate with other wireless LAN enabled computers within the effective range from the access point. √ Wired to wireless LAN connection: the access point will establish a bridge between wireless LAN and other wired counterparts.
[鍵入文字]  4     Infrastructure Mode ◎Ad-hoc Mode  The difference between Ad-hoc mode and Infrastructure mode is that Ad-hoc mode does not need the access point or router. When you use this mode, your computer will act as a server within the valid range and connect directly to others in the same LAN workgroup.         Ad-hoc Mode  It is recommended to choose this mode when there is no access point showed on your wireless network.
[鍵入文字]  5        II. Installation i. System Requirements  Before you install AW-NB101, please make sure your system meets the following requirements.  *Desktop or Laptop with USB 1.1/2.0 port *Minimum of 64MB system memory *Operating system: XP/Vista/Windows 7 *An optical drive/CD-ROM for utilities and driver installation  ii. Hardware Installation  1. Find an available USB 1.1/2.0 port on your desktop or laptop. 2. Plug AW-NB101 Wireless PCI-E Module into USB port of desktop or laptop.  iii. Operation Range  The operating range of AW-NB101 varies from the working environment. However, this device made improvement on speed and range, which also reduced dead spots in coverage area. AW-NB101 is two times wider than previous wireless products.   By default, this USB wireless adapter will automatically adjust the data rate. The transmission speed may vary according to the environment. The closer the wireless stations are the better the signal and transmission speed they will receive.

[鍵入文字]  40  This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions: (For module device use) 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.  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 20 cm 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 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  can  not  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 can not 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.
