1. General Description
1.1.
RTL8723BE
The Realtek RTL8723BE is a highly integrated single-chip 802.11n Wireless LAN (WLAN) PCI Express
network interface controller with integrated Bluetooth 2.1/3/0/4.0 USB interface controller. It combines a
WLAN MAC, a 1T1R capable WLAN baseband, and RF in s single chip. The RTL8723BE provides a
complete solution for a high-performance integrated wireless and Bluetooth device.
The integration provides better coordination between 802.11 and Bluetooth, and with sophisticated dynamic
power control and packet traffic arbitration, RTL8723BE is able to provide the best coexistence performance.
RTL8723BE also integrates RF/PA/LNA for both 802.11n and Bluetooth so that the number of external
components is reduced to minimum. The 802.11 part supports 150Mbps PHY rate and delivers reliable
throughput from an extended distance.
The Bluetooth part supports latest 3.0+HS/4.0+LE operation and provides smooth user experience under all
usage scenarios. Optimized RF architecture and baseband algorithms provide superb performance and lowest
power consumption.

Warning
1.4.1Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following
measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
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.
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This
equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
IEEE 802.11b or 802.11g operation of this product in the U.S.A. is firmware-limited to channels 1 through 11.
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

Combo module User Manual
4 Rev.1.0
IMPORTANT NOTE: This module is intended for OEM integrator. The OEM integrator is responsible
for the compliance to all the rules that apply to the product into which this certified RF module is integrated.
Additional testing and certification may be necessary when multiple modules are used.
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located with any other transmitters except in accordance with
FCC multi-transmitter product procedures. Refering to the multi-transmitter policy, multiple-transmitter(s)
and module(s) can be operated simultaneously without C2P.
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. The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with
the following: “Contains FCC ID: TX2-RTL8723BE”.
Manual Information To the End User
The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or
remove this RF module in the user’s manual of the end product which integrates this module.
The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warning as show in this manual.
1.4.2 Industry Canada Statement
This device complies with RSS-210 of the Industry Canada Rules. 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
French translation:
Ce dispositif est conforme à la norme CNR-210 d'Industrie Canada applicable aux appareils radio exempts de
licence. Son fonctionnement est sujet aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) le dispositif ne doit pas produire de
brouillage pjudiciable, et (2) ce dispositif doit accepter tout brouillage reçu, y compris un brouillage
susceptible de provoquer un fonctionnement indésirable.
This device has been designed to operate with an antenna having a maximum gain of 3.5dBi.
Antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per regulations of Industry Canada. The required
antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the
EIRP is not more than required for successful communication.
French translation:
Ce dispositif a été conçu pour fonctionner avec une antenne ayant un gain maximum de 3.5 dBi. Une antenne à
gain plus élevé est strictement interdite par les règlements d'Industrie Canada. L'imdance d'antenne requise
est de 50 ohms.
Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peutfonctionner avec une
antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pourl'émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le
but deduire les risques de brouillage radioélectriqueà l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type
d'antenne et son gain de sorte que lapuissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) nepasse pas l'intensité

IMPORTANT NOTE:
IC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This
equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.
French translation:
NOTE IMPORTANTE: (Pour l'utilisation de dispositifs mobiles)
Déclaration d'exposition aux radiations:
Cet équipement est conforme aux limites d'exposition aux rayonnements IC établies pour un environnement non
contrôlé. Cet équipement doit être installé et utilisé avec un minimum de 20 cm de distance entre la source de
rayonnement et votre corps.
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
3) For all products market in Canada, OEM has to limit the operation channels in CH1 to CH11 for 2.4G band
by supplied firmware programming tool. OEM shall not supply any tool or info to the end-user regarding to
Regulatory Domain change.
As long as 3 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.
French translation :
Cet appareil est cou uniquement pour les intégrateurs OEM dans les conditions suivantes: (Pour utilisation de
dispositif module)
1) L'antenne doit être installée de telle sorte qu'une distance de 20 cm est respectée entre l'antenne et les
utilisateurs, et
2) Cet appareil et son antenne (s) ne doit pas être co-localisés ou fonctionnement en association avec une autre antenne ou transmetteur.
3) Pour tous les produits vendus au Canada, OEM doit limiter les fréquences de fonctionnement CH1 à CH11
pour bandes de fréquences 2.4G grâce aux outils de microprogrammation fournis. OEM ne doit pas fournir
d'outil ou d'informations à l'utilisateur final en ce qui concerne le changement deglementation de domaine.
Tant que les 3 conditions ci-dessus sont remplies, des essais suppmentaires sur l'émetteur ne seront pas
cessaires. Toutefois, l'intégrateur OEM est toujours responsable des essais sur son produit final pour toutes
exigences de conformité supplémentaires requis pour ce module installé.
2) This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located with any other transmitters except in accordance with IC multi-transmitter product procedures.
