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-N
is now ready for use.
If you plan to embed the WiFiHU2 into your system, the initial evaluation consists of the

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 verif
or test the module functions.
If you use external antenna, connect one end of Radicom approved antenna to the on
oard socket. For ultimate performb
requirement with exceptional reception and throughput. If only using one antenna, you mu
use the correct antenna socket for good performance. Connect single antenna to the socket clo

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). The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following: "Contains
TX FCC ID: K7T-WIFIHU2".
RF Exposure Manual Information That Must be Included
The users 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." Additional Information That Must be Provided to OEM Integrators
The end user should NOT be provided any instructions on how to remove or install the device.
Industry Canada Interference Statement Warning
“This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). 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, et (2) l'utilisateur
de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le
fonctionnement.
