  Connecting the WiFiHU2 or WiFiHU2-NE to Your System   rior to connecting the WiFiHU2 to a Window XP, the drivers should be installed. The iFiHU2 Modules are designed for easy connection to any standard USB Port and even E ounted onto a USB hub PCB (WiFiHU2-NE). To remove the y ance, we recommend using two antennas to meet MIMO st sest    PWwireless network. Connect one end of the USB cable into the USB connector on the WiFiHU2-NE and the other into any available USB receptacle on your computer. The WiFiHU2-NE’s “Hot Swap-able” interface allows you to plug or unplug the module when the computer is on. If using Windows, load the provided drivers. The WiFiHU2-Nis now ready for use.  If you plan to embed the WiFiHU2 into your system, the initial evaluation consists of the iFiHU2 USB Module mWWiFiHU2 carefully remove it from the two 8 pin headers on the WiFiHU2-NE USB interface board. Save this interface board. The WiFiHU2 can always be reinstalled into the WiFiHU2-NE USB interface board and connected to any standard USB port to verifor test the module functions.   If you use external antenna, connect one end of Radicom approved antenna to the on oard socket. For ultimate performbrequirement with exceptional reception and throughput. If only using one antenna, you muuse the correct antenna socket for good performance. Connect single antenna to the socket cloto the Radicom Research white silkscreen legend on the PCB.                    7

     Warning Federal Communications Commission Statement Warning Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user authority to operate the equipment.  “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.”  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.    For laptop installations, the antenna must be installed to ensure that the proper spacing is maintained in the event the users places the device in their lap during use (i.e. positioning of antennas must be placed in the upper portion of the LCD panel only to ensure 20 cm will be maintained if the user places the device in their lap for use) and 2) The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna.   As long as the 2 conditions above are met, further transmitter testing 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 devices where the antenna may be installed such that 20 cm may be maintained between the antenna and users (for example access points, routers, wireless ASDL modems, certain laptop configurations, and similar equipment).
