Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Caution 1. 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. 2. FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement: The equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 centimeters between the radiator and your body. 3.The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. 4. The modular transmitter must comply with the antenna requirements of Section 15.203 and 15.204(c). The antenna must either be permanently attached or employ a “unique＂ antenna coupler (at all connections between the module and the antenna, including the cable). Any antenna used with the module must be approved with the module, either at the time of initial authorization or through a Class II permissive change. The “professional installation＂ provision of Section 15.203 may not be applied to modules. 5.Any changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user authority to operate the equipment. 6.The modular transmitter must be labeled with its own FCC ID number, and if the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: “ Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID:XYZMODEL1” or “Contains FCC ID:XYZMODEL1.” Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Statement All Antennas listed below have to be provided to the OEM for his use. No other antennas are authorized to be used by the OEM except listed in the Manual.

As long as 2 conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with module installed (for example, digital device emissions, P peripheral requirements, etc.) Important Note In the event that these conditions can not be example certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter, then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid because the FCC ID can not be used on the final product. In these circumstances, OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization. Ⅱ

1IntroductionMSI MP54G5, the Wireless 11g miniPCI Card, is a Type IIIBcard, which can be used to integrate with such systems asnotebook, mini-barebone and portable PC. With MSI MP54G5embedded inside, a system could provide users with the abilityand flexibility to connect up to Internet wirelessly via 802.11gwith speed up to 54Mbps.MSI MP54G5 is taking advantage of leading technologies fromRalink. It addresses WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) mar-kets by providing true simultaneous connectivity while deploy-ing IEEE 802.11g. Along with this solution, a system installed ina single card is able to offer capability of WiFi mode. It willbenefit system vendors in miniaturization of system dimensionand BOM cost reduction, as well as also make users happy withthe all-in-one functionality.>>> 1.1 MP54G5 (MS-6833B) - MiniPCI Card
2Ad-hoc Mode : An Ad-hoc network is a local area network orother small network, especially one with wireless or temporaryplug-in connections, in which some of the network devices arepart of the network only for the duration of a communicationssession. Users in the network can share files, print to a sharedprinter, and access the Internet with a shared modem. In thiskind of network, new devices can be quickly added; however,users can only communicate with other wireless LAN comput-ers that are in this wireless LAN workgroup, and are withinrange.>>> 1.2 How MP54G5 WorksIn WLAN Environment1.2.1MP54G5 MP54G5WLAN MiniPCI Card WLAN MiniPCI Card
3Infrastructure Mode : The difference between Infrastructurenetwork and Ad-hoc network is that the former one includes anAccess Point. In an Infrastructure network, the Access Point canmanage the bandwidth to maximize bandwidth utilization. Addi-tionally, the Access Point enables users on a wireless LAN toaccess an existing wired network, allowing wireless users to takeadvantage of the wired networks resources, such as Internet,email, file transfer, and printer sharing. The scale and range of theInfrastructure networking are larger and wider than that of theAd-hoc networking.MP54G5 MP54G5WLAN MiniPCI CardWLAN MiniPCI Card
