About this Document
This document is a product manual for the BCG001912 WCS 2.3 GHz WLAN Radio
Module, 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.
BCG001912 Product Manual

Introduction
The BCG001912 (hereafter referred to as “the module”) is a 2.3 GHz radio module
compatible with the IEEE 802.11g standard for Wireless LAN operation. It is
designed to be interoperable with WLAN products which are based on OFDM radio
technology.
The module contains a complete 802.11g radio and Medium Access Control (MAC)
protocol engine which allows implementation of an 802.11g module.
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”). It will only be used
with final products designed and authorized specifically for that purpose by BelAir
Networks.

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: BCG001912 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

Product Installation
Products which contain BCG001912 shall only be installed by professional installers trained
by BelAir Networks or its authorized agents. This product is to be installed on fixed
permanent structures. 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, and,
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 more than the minimum safety distance. These distances
are outlined according to product type and whether high gain antennas are used. See “RF
Exposure” section below for details.
Adherence to these rules by the professional installer is mandatory. See full installation
procedures for the particular product for details.
Product Labeling
The following permanent label, or one containing equivalent information, must be
affixed in a conspicuous location on the exterior of every product containing this module:
FCC ID: RAR20100520

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 and Part 90 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.
BCG001912 Product Manual

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 27.52 addressing RF exposure from radio
frequency devices.
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 between the radiator and a human body. This minimum distance
is shown below, based on product and antenna configuration:
