FCC STATEMEMT: 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 points, routers, wireless ADSL modems, and similar equipment). The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following: "Contains TX FCC ID:I4L-MS6833A". Manual Information for End Users The end user must not have manual instructions to remove or install the device. The user manual for end users 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." Introduction >>> 1.1 MP54G4 (MS-6833A) - Wireless 11g MiniPCI Card MSI MP54G4 (MS-6833A) Wireless 11g MiniPCI Card (hereafter called MP54G4), compliant with IEEE802.11g, is a high-efficiency wireless adapter for wireless networking at home, in office or in public places. The data rate can be up to 54 Mbps and auto-negotiated to 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9, 6Mbps (IEEE 802.11g), or 11, 5.5, 2, 1Mbps (IEEE802.11b). With MP54G4, you can roam between conference room and office without being disconnected the LAN cables; in addition, sharing files and printers can be easy tasks. The MP54G4 is available to Microsoft Windows operating systems (Windows® XP/2000/ME/98SE) and can be integrated into networking with either Ad-hoc mode (computerto-computer, without an Access Point) or Infrastructure mode (computer-to-access point, an Access Point is required). >>> 1.2 How MP54G4 Works Ad-hoc Mode : An Ad-hoc network is a local area network or other small network, especially one with wireless or temporary plug-in connections, in which some of the network devices are part of the network only for the duration of a communications session. Users in the network can share files, print to a shared printer, and access the Internet with a shared modem. In this kind of network, new devices can be quickly added; however, users can only communicate with other wireless LAN computers that are in this wireless LAN workgroup, and are within range. MP54G4 Wireless 11g MiniPCI Card MP54G4 Wireless 11g MiniPCI Card Infrastructure Mode : The difference between Infrastructure network and Ad-hoc network is that the former one includes an Access Point. In 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. The scale and range of the Infrastructure network are larger and wider than that of the Ad-hoc networking.
