Preliminary User manual FCC ID: OSZ39200C1 Page 3 of 7 0-Introduction The Intersil ISL39200C WLAN NIC is a complete wireless high speed Network Interface Card (NIC). It conforms to the IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11a protocol and operates in the 2.45 GHz and 5150-5350MHz, 5470-5725MHz and 5725-5825 MHz frequency bands. It provides a complete reference design evaluation platform of hardware and software to system providers or integrators requiring wireless data communications capability and is ideal for integration into Access Points. • Fully compliant with the IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11a WLAN standards • FCC Certified Under Part 15 (pending) to Operate in the 2.45 GHz and 5150-5350MHz, 5725-5825 MHz Bands • ETSI Certified Under RTTE directive (pending) to Operate in the 2.45 GHz and 5150-5350MHz, 5470-5725MHz and 5725-5825 MHz Bands • Support for 54, 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9, and 6 Mbps OFDM, 11 and 5.5 Mbps CCK and legacy 2 and 1 Mbps data rates This Cardbus card is only intended to be used in combination with the integrated firmware/drivers of Access Points. The firmware in this Cardbus card will not allow an user to install this Cardbus card into other devices than Access Points and/or use this Cardbus card in combination with other drivers than those which are readily available in Access Points. 1-Installation procedure 1.1 Installing the Cardbus32 card into the Access Point Turn the Access Point off and then insert Cardbus card into the Cardbus slot of the Access Point. Further details of how to install the Cardbus card into the Access Point and how to configure the Cardbus card for proper operation may be found in the installation manual of the Access Point. CAUTION: 1-- This assembly is designed to operate with a supply voltage of 3.3V in Access Points supporting the CARDBUS32 standard. 2-- Do not force engagement of the card in the CARDBUS32 slot. It is mechanically designed to prevent improper insertion.

Any changes or modifications made to this device that are not expressly approved by Intersil may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. Intersil is not responsible for any radio or television interference caused by unauthorized modification of this device, or the substitution or attachment of connecting cables and equipment other than specified. It is the responsibility of the user to correct any interference caused by such unauthorized modification, substitution or attachment. Intersil and its authorized resellers or distributors will assume no liability for any damage or violation of government regulations arising from failing to comply with these guidelines. The use of Wireless LAN devices may be restricted in some situations or environments for example: * On board of airplanes, or * In an explosive environment, or * In case the interference risk to other devices or services is perceived or identified as harmful. In case the policy regarding the use of Wireless LAN devices in specific organizations or environments (e.g. airports, hospitals, chemical/oil/gas industrial plants, private buildings etc.) is not clear, please first verify authorization to use these devices prior to operating the equipment. 2-Regulatory information 2.1 FCC Information to User This product does not contain any user serviceable components and is to be used with approved antennas only. Any product changes or modifications will invalidate all applicable regulatory certifications and approvals 2.2 FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure In order to comply with RF exposure limits, the user is advised to maintain a distance of at least 20 cm from the antenna of this device while it is in use. 2.3 FCC Electronic Emission Notices 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 2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Caution: 1--Within 5.15 to 5.25 MHz bands, UNII devices are restricted to indoor operations to reduce any potential harmfull interference to co-channel Mobile Satelite Systems (MSS) operations. 2--High power radars are allocated as primary users in the 5.25 to 5.35GHz and 5.65 to 5.85GHz bands. These high power radar stations can cause interference with and/or damage to this device.
Preliminary User manual FCC ID: OSZ39200C1 Page 5 of 7 2.4 FCC Radio Frequency 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 when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. 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. Operation of this equipment in a residential area may cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense. 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 or more 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 2.5 Export restrictions This product or software contains encryption code which may not be exported or transferred from the US or Canada without an approved US Department of Commerce export license.
