1. USA—Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
FCC COMPLIANCE STATEMENT:
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.
INFORMATION TO USER:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of 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. If not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
it 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 tuning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try and correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
-Increase the distance between the equipment and the receiver.
-Connect the equipment to 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.
CAUTION: (this only applicable to 5GHz device)
This device is restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz frequency
range. FCC requires this product to be used indoors for frequency range 5.15 to 5.25 GHz to
reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel Mobile Satellite systems.
High power radars are allocated as primary users of the 5.25 to 5.35 GHz and 5.65 to 5.85 GHz
bands. These radar stations can cause interference with and/or damage this device.
System integrators must include the FCC ID on the end product.
FCC Radio-Frequency Exposure & Approval Conditions:
1. Antennas must be installed in the display section of Netbook/notebook/laptop and tablet
computer to provide separation distances as shown in the preceding drawings from the
transmitting antenna to the body of user during normal operating condition.
2. Transmitting antenna(s) can only be installed at the display section of computer. When this
device is installed other than notebook computers, at least 20 cm separation distance shall be
maintained between the transmitting antenna(s) to the body of user or nearby person.

3. The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be collocated or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter within a host device, except in accordance with FCC
multi-transmitter product procedures.
When incorporated in a host with other transmitters, co-location considerations must also be
evaluated per FCCKDB 447498, KDB 616217, and FCC KDB 616217 D03 as applicable.
- The output power of co-located Bluetooth device is far below the limit (≤ 60/f (GHz))
and the antenna-to-antenna distance is ≥ 5 cm, so the Bluetooth device is not required
simultaneous RF exposure evaluation in accordance with Table-2 of KDB 616217.
- Customers must conduct the required regulatory evaluation for simultaneous RF
exposure with WWAN modules as “dominant transmitter”, if the platforms incorporate
WWAN modules
4. Only those antennas with same type and lesser gain filed under this FCC ID number can be
used with this device.
5. The regulatory label on the final system must include the statement:
“Contains FCCID: QDS-BRCM1050 and/or IC: 4324A-BRCM1050” or using electronic
labeling method as documented in KDB 784748.
6. The final system integrator must ensure there is no instruction provided in the user manual
or customer documentation indicating how to install or remove the transmitter module except
such device has implemented two-ways authentication between module and the host system.
8. The final host manual shall include the following regulatory statement:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of 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. If not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
it 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 tuning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try and correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
-Increase the distance between the equipment and the receiver.
-Connect the equipment to outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
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.

2. Canada - Industry Canada (IC)
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 this device.”
L ‘ utilisation de ce dispositif est autorisée seulement aux conditions suivantes : (1) il ne doit
pas produire de brouillage et (2) l’ utilisateur du dispositif doit étre prêt à accepter tout
brouillage radioélectrique reçu, même si ce brouillage est susceptible de compromettre le
