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 operation within 5.15~5.25GHz frequency range, it is
restricted to indoor environment.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
FCC 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.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
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,
3) For all products market in US, OEM has to limit the
operation channels in CH1 to CH11 for 2.4G band by
supplied firmware programming tool. OEM shall not
supply any tool or info to the end-user regarding to
Regulatory Domain change.
As long as 3 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
can not 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 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 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:

IMPORTANT NOTE: (For mobile device use)
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.
Caution:
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.
High power radars are allocated as primary users
(meaning they have priority) of 5250-5350 MHz and
5650-5850 MHz and these radars could cause
interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices.
French translation:
NOTE IMPORTANTE: (Pour l'utilisation de dispositifs
mobiles)
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 20 cm de distance entre la source de
rayonnement et votre corps.
Avertissement:
Le dispositif fonctionnant dans la bande 5150-5250 MHz
est réservé uniquement pour une utilisation à l'intérieur
afin de réduire les risques de brouillage préjudiciable aux
systèmes de satellites mobiles utilisant les mêmes
canaux.
Les utilisateurs de radars de haute puissance sont
désignés utilisateurs principaux (c.-à-d., qu'ils ont la
priorité) pour les bandes 5250-5350 MHz et 5650-5850
MHz et que ces radars pourraient causer du brouillage

et/ou des dommages aux dispositifs LAN-EL.
French translation:
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.
This radio transmitter (IC: 9219A-WMDR129N) has been
approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types
listed below with the maximum permissible gain and required
antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna
types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the
maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for
use with this device.
This device has been designed to operate with an antenna
having a maximum gain of 2.02 dB. Antenna having a higher
gain is strictly prohibited per regulations of Industry Canada. The
required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Conformement a la reglementation d'Industrie Canada, le
present emetteur radio peut
fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou
inferieur) approuve pour l'emetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans
le but de reduire les risques de brouillage radioelectrique a
l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne
et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnee
equivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne depasse pas l'intensite necessaire a
l'etablissement d'une communication satisfaisante.
Le present emetteur radio (IC: 9219A-WMDR129N)a ete
approuve par Industrie Canada pour fonctionner avec les
types d'antenne enumeres ci-dessous et ayant un gain
admissible maximal et l'impedance requise pour chaque
type d'antenne. Les types d'antenne non inclus dans
cette liste, ou dont le gain est superieur au gain maximal
indique, sont strictement interdits pour l'exploitation de
l'emetteur.
Ce dispositif a ete concu pour fonctionner avec une
antenne ayant un gain maximal de dB [2.02]. Une
antenne a gain plus eleve est strictement interdite par les
reglements d'Industrie Canada. L'impedance d'antenne
requise est de 50 ohms.

Introduction
While Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is
adopted by 802.11abgn for the high-speed transfer rate in
2.4/5GHz range. Gemtek’s WMDR-129N fully utilizes the
benefits of 802.11bgn and 802.11an-draft standard on the
proven compatibility between two transfer modes and the high
speed bit transfer that is desirable for multimedia application in
Wireless environment. The internal Wireless LAN module
allows your system (for example, your notebook) to connect
wirelessly to other 802.11-enabled systems, devices, or network.
Features
The WMDR-129N has the following features:
Wireless LAN Data rates of 1Mbps to 54Mbps for
802.11a/802.11g, 1Mbps to 11Mbps for 802.11b and
300Mbps for 802.11n.
Wireless security using WPA with TKIP encryption, 802.1X
with EAP-type Authentication

Hardware Installation
Please follow the instruction to install your 11ABGN Wi-Fi
module on your system:
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.
Your computer comes with a unique pin holes, which allows the
system to add wireless LAN (IEEE802.11bgn, IEEE802.11an).
Step 1 Insert the Wi-Fi module to the pin holes.
Step 2 Connect the antenna.
Congratulations! You have just completed the Wireless LAN
hardware installation. When you boot up the computer, you
should expect to see the wireless LAN connection capacity.
