Conditions on using BRCM regulatory approvals:
A. Customer must ensure that its product (the “CUSTOMER Product”) is electrically
identical to Broadcom’s product. Customer acknowledges that any modifications to
Broadcom’s product may invalidate regulatory approvals in relation to the CUSTOMER
Product, or may necessitate notifications to the relevant regulatory authorities.
B. OEM must inform Broadcom of any changes which may require the Class I or
Class II permissive changes for the FCC. Any substituted antenna and RF cable
assemblies must be approved by Broadcom in order to maintain compliance.
C. Appropriate labels must be affixed to the CUSTOMER Product that comply with
applicable regulations in all respects.
D. A user’s manual or instruction manual must be included with the customer
product that contains the text as required by applicable law. Without limitation of the
foregoing, an example (for illustration purposes only) of possible text to include is set
forth below:
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.

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the 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 or underneath the keyboard in
Netbook/notebook/laptop computers to provide at least 5mm separation distance from the
transmitting antenna to the body of user during normal operating condition. For tablets
the minimum antenna-to-enclosure distance should be 10mm.
- For standalone SAR testing, the antenna is mounted on lossless foam material for
testing. In order to use Broadcom modular approval, PC–OEMs must install antennas
with non–conductive materials surrounding the antenna.
2. 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.
3. Only those antennas with same type and lesser gain filed under this FCC ID number
can be used with this device.
4. The regulatory label on the final system must include the statement: “Contains FCC
ID: QDS-RBCM1076 and ID: 4324A-BRCM1076 “or using electronic labeling method
as documented in KDB 784748.
5. 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.

2. Canada - Industry Canada (IC)
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-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.
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 ID: 4324A-BRCM1076, has been approved by Industry Canada
to operate with the onboard antenna or a detachable WLAN antenna with a maximum
gain of de 3.8dBi/2.4GHz, 6.6dBi/5GHz. Any other detachable antennas, with a different
type or having a gain greater than de 3.8dBi/2.4GHz, 6.6dBi/5GHz are strictly prohibited
for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
