3. Introduction
The WU163-AM is an IEEE802.11n-compatible USB module in a 1x1 MIMO configuration and operating in the
2.4 ISM band. This module allows an embedded host to use its USB 1.1 or 2.0 interface to connect to the
IEEE802.11n compatible access point at unprecedented speeds.
The WU163-AM USB module is based on Broadcom’s BCM4319 65nm chipset with internal PAs. It provides
greater than 50Mbps real world throughput. Configuration and testing of this module must be done on the host via
Broadcom provided software tools.

FCC 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
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.
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.
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.
For product available in the USA/Canada market, only channel 1~11 can be operated. Selection of other channels
is not possible.
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operation in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
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.

20cm minimum distance has to be able to be maintained between the antenna and the users for the host this
module is integrated into. Under such configuration, the FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
population/uncontrolled environment can be satisfied.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user's authority to
operate this equipment.
USERS MANUAL OF THE END PRODUCT:
In the users manual of the end product, the end user has to be informed to keep at least 20cm separation with the
antenna while this end product is installed and operated. The end user has to be informed that the FCC
radio-frequency exposure guidelines for an uncontrolled environment can be satisfied. The end user has to also be
informed that any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user's
authority to operate this equipment. If the size of the end product is smaller than 8x10cm, then additional FCC part
15.19 statement is required to be available in the users manual: This device complies with Part 15 of 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.
LABEL OF THE END PRODUCT:
The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following " Contains TX FCC ID: N89-WU163 ". If
the size of the end product is larger than 8x10cm, then the following FCC part 15.19 statement has to also be
available on the label: This device complies with Part 15 of 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.
