Users Manual Revision 2
Federal 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.
FCC Caution: To assure continued compliance, (example - use only shielded interface cables
when connecting to computer or peripheral devices) any changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this
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. The OEM integrator should be
aware of the following important issues.
Labeling of the End Product
The end product integrate this module has to be clearly identified on the label that this
end product contain an FCC approved RF module. The format of such statement
could containTx FCC ID: IXMWM-BB-AG-01 or similar.
Integration Note
a) This module is authorized under limited module approval specified to mobile host
equipment. So, the antenna must be installed such that 20cm is maintained
between the antenna and users.
b) 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 emission, PC peripheral requirements, etc.)
IMPORTANT NOTE:
In the event that these conditions can not be met (for example certain laptop
configurations, general purpose PCMCIA or similar cards, 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 (including the transmitter) and obtaining a
separate FCC authorization.
could be " Contains Transmitter with FCC ID: IXMWM-BB-AG-01" or similar.

Introduction
The USI 802.11 Wireless SiP module WM-BB-AG-
01 which refers as “COMBO SiP module” is a full
small size module that provides full function of
802.11b and Bluetooth class 2 on a 22*29 mm tiny
module via 60 pins board to board connector.
This multi- functionality and board to board physical
interface provide system users the maximum
flexibility including system feature and system
integration.
WM-BB-AG-01 is approved as one of USI
embedded Wi-Fi module product lines. There are
two product variants of WM-BB-AG-01 by de-
populating either 802.11b or Bluetooth to be a
single module which provided better cost-
feature on
system with single design-in effort.
The small size design (22*29*3.5 mm), low power
consumption (Tx 330 mA) and excellent radio
performance make it the best solution which is
suitable for OEM customers who require embedded
802.11b Wi-Fi plus Bluetooth features, such as,
wireless PDA, barcode scanner, mini-printer, VoIP
phone etc.
For the hardware features, Agere 802.11 chipset
solution is adopted for 802.11b, and CSR BlueCore
02-ROM for Bluetooth. Two antenna connectors
provide antenna connectivity for each function.
In additional to the classic radio design, physical
signaling between Bluetooth and 802.11b functional
block provides the best performance when
Bluetooth and 802.11b function at the same time.
For the software and driver development, USI
provides extensive technical document and
reference software code for system integration.
Hardware evaluation kit and development utility will
be released base on listed OS and processors to
OEM customers under agreement for development.
