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 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.
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.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set
forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be
installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the
radiator & your body.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

controlled in U.S.A.
ii
Preface
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.
As long as 2 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 (for example:
Access point, Router… etc). The final end product must be
labeled in a visible area with the following: “Contains TX FCC ID:
N89-WM610P”.
iii
54M WLAN MiniPCI Module
Manual Information That Must be Included
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 users manual of the end
product which integrate this module.
The users manual for OEM integrators must include the following
information in a prominent location “ IMPORTANT NOTE: To
comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the antenna
used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation
distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located
or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

What is Wireless LAN?
Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) systems offer a great
number of advantages over traditional wired systems. WLANs are
flexible and easy to setup and manage. They are also more
economical than wired LAN systems.
Using radio frequency (RF) technology, WLANs transmit and
receive data through the air. WLANs combine data connectivity
with user mobility. For example, users can roam from a
conference room to their office without being disconnected from
the LAN.
Using WLANs, users can conveniently access shared information,
and network administrators can configure and augment networks
without installing or moving network cables.
WLAN technology provides users with many convenient and cost
saving features:
•
Mobility: WLANs provide LAN users with access to realtime information anywhere in their organization, providing
service opportunities that are impossible with wired
networks.
— Introduction
•
Ease of Installation: Installing is easy for novice and
expert users alike, eliminating the need to install network
cables in walls and ceilings.
•
Scalability: WLANs can be configured in a variety of
topologies to adapt to specific applications and
installations. Configurations are easily changed and range
from peer-to-peer networks suitable for a small number of
users to full infrastructure networks of thousands of users
roaming over a broad area.
LAN Modes
Wireless LANs can be configured in one of two ways:
Ad-hoc
Networking
Also known as a peer-to-peer network, an ad-hoc
network is one that allows all workstations and
computers in the network to act as servers to all other
users on the network. Users on the network can share
files, print to a shared printer, and access the Internet
with a shared modem. However, with ad-hoc
networking, users can only communicate with other
wireless LAN computers that are in the wireless LAN
workgroup, and are within range.
Infrastructure
Networking
Infrastructure networking differs from ad-hoc
networking in that it includes an access point. Unlike
the ad-hoc structure where users on the LAN contend
the shared bandwidth, on an infrastructure network the
access point can manage the bandwidth to maximize
bandwidth utilization.
Additionally, the access point enables users on a
wireless LAN to access an existing wired network,
allowing wireless users to take advantage of the wired
networks resources, such as Internet, email, file
transfer, and printer sharing.
Infrastructure networking has the following advantages
over ad-hoc networking:
•
Extended range: each wireless LAN computer
54M WLAN MiniPCI Module
within the range of the access point can
communicate with other wireless LAN computers
within range of the access point.
•
Roaming: the access point enables a wireless
LAN computer to move through a building and
still be connected to the LAN.
•
Wired to wireless LAN connectivity: the access
point bridges the gap between wireless LANs and
their wired counterparts.
Notes on wireless LAN configuration
When configuring a wireless LAN (WLAN), be sure to note the
following points:
•
Optimize the performance of the WLAN by ensuring that
the distance between access points is not too far. In most
buildings, WLAN cards operate within a range of 100 ~
300 feet, depending on the thickness and structure of the
walls.
•
Radio waves can pass through walls and glass but not
metal. If there is interference in transmitting through a wall,
it may be that the wall has reinforcing metal in its structure.
Install another access point to circumvent this problem.
•
Floors usually have metal girders and metal reinforcing
struts that interfere with WLAN transmission.

integrity.
Signal Strength: when connected to
the wired LAN, displays the signal
strength.
Note: Link quality and signal strength
are not available when using a peerto-peer connection.
54M WLAN MiniPCI Module
Mode: displays the current LAN
mode, either AdHoc or Infrastructure.
SSID: displays a list of Service Set
Identifications.
Ethernet Conversion: displays a list
of Ethernet conversion protocols.
Tx Rate: displays a list of transfer
rates.
WEP: allows you to enable or disable
Wired Equivalency Privacy (WEP) for
encryption, with either 64- or 128-bit
encryption.
PS Mode: allows you to enable or
disable power saving mode.
Channel: enables you to select a
transmission channel.
The Encryption window enables you
to create an encryption scheme for
Wireless LAN transmissions. Enter a
passphrase and press Generate to
automatically generate a 64- or 128bit key (selected from the WEP
dropdown menu in the Configuration
screen).
You can also manually enter a set of
values for each key.
Note: 128-bit encryption requires
more system resources than 64-bit
encryption. Use 64-bit encryption for
better performance.
