About this Document
This document is a product manual for the BEL20005 5 GHz WLAN Radio
Module and Antenna Matrix, including its limitations on use in any product
marketed or offered for sale. It is intended as a supplement to training and
documentation by BelAir Networks Inc. or its authorized agents.

Introduction
The BEL20005 (hereafter referred to as “the module”) is a 5 GHz radio
module with Antenna Matrix compatible with the IEEE 802.11 standard for
Wireless LAN operation. It is designed to be interoperable with WLAN
products which are based on Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) radio
technology.
The module contains a complete 802.11a radio and Medium Access Control
(MAC) protocol engine which allows implementation of an 802.11a device.
The module is not intended for stand-alone operation. It will only be
marketed as a complete product, in conjunction with a package, DC power
supply and antenna (hereafter referred to as “the product” or the “final
product”).
The two parts making up the module are the 5 GHz WLAN Radio Module and
the Antenna Matrix. Both boards incorporate a BelAir Networks proprietary
interface which does not allow connection of any other vendor’s cards.
Since the module has a BelAir networks proprietary digital interface, it cannot
be directly connected to any standard telecommunications or computer
devices. It can only be used with final products designed and authorized
specifically for that purpose.

Module Installation and Service
Installation into a Product
The module shall only be installed by a technician trained by BelAir Networks
or its authorized agents. It should only be installed into an approved product
(see above) following all manufacturing and service procedures for that
product. The module should only be installed into a final product in a
manufacturing or service depot site.
Caution: BEL20005 is an electro-static discharge (ESD) sensitive device. All
appropriate ESD measures must be taken when handling the module. Failure
to employ appropriate ESD protection may damage the module.
Module Service
The module is not intended as a field-serviceable unit. It contains no field-
replaceable or field-serviceable parts, or any external adjustable mechanisms.
The module should only be serviced in a manufacturing or service depot site
approved by BelAir Networks or its authorized agents.

Final Product Requirements
The requirements below apply to any final product in which the BEL20005
module is installed.
Antenna Usage
BEL20005 module shall only be used in conjunction with the following antenna
types:
• BelAir Networks model: BEL20007, 15 dBi directional antenna, horizontal
beamwidth 45 degrees.
Warning: Use of this module in conjunction with any antenna not
expressly listed above will void authority to install or operate this equipment.
Product Installation
Products which contain BEL20005 shall only be installed by professional
installers trained by BelAir Networks or its authorized agents. In addition to
normal installation procedures and good installation practice, professional
installers are responsible to ensure that:
1. Only an approved antenna (see above) is connected to the module,
2. The antenna is mounted in such a manner and in such a location that
access to the antenna by the general population is minimized. Access to
the antenna by the general population should be limited to greater than 20
cm (8 inches) during normal operation.
3. Only the approved BelAir Networks AC power cable may be used when
this module is deployed with the BelAir200 product. Use of any other
power cable may void the regulatory approvals of the BelAir200 and is
prohibited.
Adherence to these rules by the professional installer is mandatory. See full
installation procedures for the particular product for details.

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 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 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.
Manufacturer’s Industry Canada Conformity Statement
This device has been designed to operate with an antenna having a maximum
gain of 15 dBi. Antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per
regulations of Industry Canada. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
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.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its
gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power
(EIRP) is not more than that required for successful communication.
This Class B Digital apparatus meets all the requirements of the Canadian
Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B respecte toutes les exigences du
Réglement sur le matériel brouilleur du Canada.
RF Exposure Statement
This Wireless LAN radio device has been evaluated under FCC Bulletin OET
65C and found to be compliant to the requirements set forth in CFR 47
Sections 2.1091, 2.1093, and 15.247 (b) (4) addressing RF exposure from radio
frequency devices.

PM20005-001 version 2
This device complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits for an
uncontrolled environment. The radiated output power of this Wireless LAN
device is below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits. However, this
device should still be installed and used in such a manner that the potential for
human contact during normal operation is minimized. In order to comply with
RF exposure limits established in the ANSI C95.1 standard, this equipment
should be installed and operated at a minimum distance of 20 centimeters (8
inches) between the radiator and a human body.
