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:
˗ġReorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
˗ġIncrease the separation between the equipment and receiver.
˗ġConnect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
˗ġConsult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

OEM Integrator Checklist
The party below will implement the LITE-ON Module in host systems in accordance with the instructions
specified in this document and the documents referenced herein.
1. The OEM integrator will ensure the Module is integrated in a host systems using only the approved
antenna model(s) described in this document.
2. The OEM integrator will ensure the antenna placement inside the host system will maintain the
required spacing to end user for RF Exposure compliance, as specified in this document.
3. If other radios are integrated inside the host with the LITE-ON Module, the OEM integrator will contact
its test lab, TCB or LITE-ON to determine if additional FCC compliance evaluation is required to meet FCC
collocation rules.
4. The OEM integrator will ensure end user documentation will contain the specified regulatory wording
and ensure the host system and the Module itself are labeled as specified in this document.
5. The OEM integrator will ensure the Module is programmed in the factory with compliant transmit
power not exceeding the levels specified in this document.
LITE-ON requests that the OEM integrator acknowledge its receipt of this document and the above
instructions. You may contact LITE-ON with any questions concerning this document or the
responsibilities of the OEM integrator.
IC Statement:
This device complies with Industry Canada license•exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the
