2PRODUCT INTRODCUTION
The WM141 is a Draft IEEE802.11n-compatible half miniCard module in a 2x2 configuration and
operating in the 2.4GHz band. This module allows an embedded host to use its PCI-E base 1.1
compatible interface to connect to a Draft IEEE802.11n compatible access point at unprecedented
speeds.
The WM141 half miniCard module is based on Atheros’s AR9283 chipset. It provides greater than
150Mbps real world throughput using high-speed spatial multiplexing modes. Configuration and testing of
this module must be done on the host via Broadcom provided software tools.

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 (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.).
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: “Contains FCC ID: N89-WM140”.
Manual Information To the End User
The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or
remove this RF module in the user’s manual of the end product which integrates this module.
The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warning as show in this manual.
Industry Canada Statement
This device complies with RSS-210 of the Industry Canada Rules. 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
This device has been designed to operate with an antenna having a maximum gain of 1.8dBi.
Antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per regulations of Industry Canada. The required antenna
impedance is 50 ohms.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the
EIRP is not more than required for successful communication.
9. Warning statement
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 o
f
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.
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.
