FCC ID: QDS-BRCM1084; IC: 4324A-BRCM1084
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 Class I or Class
II permissive changes. 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.

For Broadcom BCM943228Z
FCC ID: QDS-BRCM1084; IC: 4324A-BRCM1084
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. For mobile applications:
Antennas must be installed in the display section of Netbook/notebook/laptop computer
to provide at least 20cm separation distance from the transmitting antenna to the body of
user during normal operating condition.
For portable applications:
-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 , or any other person during normal operating
condition. Configuration in tablets must be with at least 10mm antenna-to-enclosure
separation distance.
-The WLAN antennas used must be the same antennas as in this filing. The distance
between two antennas (Chain 1 and Chain 2) is 5cm.
- 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. The regulatory label on the final system must include the statement: “Contains FCC
ID: QDS-BRCM1084 “or using electronic labeling method as documented in KDB
784748.

4. 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.
5. 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

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.
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth forth uncontrolled
environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20
cm between the radiator & your body.
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.

Introduction: Broadcom BCM943228Z PCI-E Mini Card User's Guide
Before you begin
Things you should know
BCM943228Z network
Before you begin
Obtain the following information from your network administrator (if you are a home user, obtain this information from the person that
installed your wireless access point):
●
●
●
●
●
Network names (SSID) of the specific wireless networks that you want to connect to.
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) key information (if any) for the networks you want to connect to.
For Microsoft® Windows® networking, your customer name and workgroup name.
For your network account, your user name and password.
Your IP address (if not using a DHCP server)
Things you should know
When you start your computer, your Broadcom BCM943228Z PCI-E Mini card detects certain wireless networks that are
within range. Before you can connect to these and other wireless networks, you must configure a profile for each network using the
information you obtained from your network administrator.
WEP is a security protocol for wireless local area networks (defined in the IEEE 802.11g standard) that encrypts data sent over radio
waves. The use of the WEP key is optional and can be enabled or disabled. If the network you are connecting to has enabled WEP, you
must also enable WEP in the network profile and set the WEP key to match the WEP key used by the network. Otherwise, you cannot
connect to the network.
Broadcom BCM943228Z network
The Broadcom BCM943228Z solution allows you to make a wireless connection to a network, as illustrated below.
