Regulatory Information 
Canada-Industry Canada (IC) 
This device complies with Industry Canada’s license-exempt RSSs. 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. 
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils 
radio exempts de licence. L’exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : 
(1) l’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage; 
(2) l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le 
brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le fonctionnement. 
This device (local network devices) for the band 5150-5250 MHz is only indoor usage to 
reduce potential for harmful interference to co-channel Mobile Satellite systems. High 
power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority) of 5250-5350 
MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and these radars could cause interference and/or damage to 
LELAN devices. 
Cet appareil (pour réseaux locaux radioélectriques) dans les bandes de fréquences 
5150-5250 MHz est réervéàune utilisation àl’intéieur afin de réuire le risque d’interféence 
avec les systèmes satellites mobiles bicanaux. Les radars forte puissance sont désignés 
comme étant les premiers utilisateurs (c’st-à-dire qu’ls ont la priorité) des bandes de 
fréquences 5250-5350 MHz et 5650-5850 MHz. Ces stations radars peuvent provoquer 
des interférences et/ou des dommages à ce périphérique. 
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should 
be so chosen that the equivalent isotopically radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that 
required for successful communication. 

  IC: 216H-CFWL16A 
Caution: Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation. 
To comply with IC RF exposure compliance requirements, a separation distance of at least 
8mm must be maintained between the antenna of this device and all persons. This device 
must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.  
Cet équipement est conforme aux limites d’exposition aux rayonnements énoncées pour 
un environnement non contrôlé et respecte les règles d’exposition aux fréquences 
radioélectriques (RF) CNR-102 de l’IC. Cet équipement doit être installé et utilisé en 
gardant une distance de 8 mm ou plus entre le radiateur et le corps humain. 
Instructions to OEM Integrators 
A User manual provided to the end user must indicate the operating requirements and 
conditions that must be observed to ensure compliance with the above-mentioned IC RF 
Exposure guideline.   
If this module is intended for use in a portable device, integrators are responsible for 
separate evaluation and/or approval to satisfy IC RF Exposure requirements.   
If other radio devices are to be integrated with this module, an additional evaluation and IC 
submission may be required. Integrators are responsible for such additional evaluation and 
IC submission.
