FCC compliance Statement
Federal Communication Commission interference state-ment 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 pro-
vide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential instal-lation. 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 interfer-ence will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television recep-tion, 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.

Chapter 1
Introduction
LPM module is a WLAN module with a BROADCOM single-chip BCM4319. The WLAN circuitry works
with the host via the Secure Digital I/O (SDIO) interface. Being able to support the 802.11n standard in an
1x1 40MHz bandwidth mode, the data rates can be as high as 150Mbps.
Features and Benefits
• One Tiny Size Module Supporting
Only takes a small 50.95 (W) x 30 (D) x 4.75(T) footprint.
• Seamless Wireless Connectivity
The modules support the IEEE 802.11b/g standards and 802.11n at 1x1 MIMO mode for high speed
and transparent connectivity against most home and business APs and all public hot spots around
the world.
• Up-to-Date, High-Level Security
WEP and WPA are supported to ensure maximum WiFi data privacy.
• Dynamic Rate Shifting
Wireless transmission speed is automatically adjusted on the basis of signal strength to achieve
maximum availability and link reliability.
• WiFi and Cellular Coexistence
Advanced WiFi coexistence logics are included. That is one separated antenna for WLAN. It also
coexists with cellular GSM/UMTS.
• Embedded Oscillator
Oscillator is embedded.

What is Wireless LAN?
Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) systems offer a great number of advantages over tradi-
tional wired systems. WLANs are flexible and easy to setup and manage. They are also more
economical than wired LAN systems.
Using radio frequency (RF) technology, WLANs transmit and receive data through the air.
WLANs combine data connectivity with user mobility. For example, users can roam from a con-
ference room to their office without being disconnected from the LAN.
Using WLANs, users can conveniently access shared information, and network administrators
can configure and augment networks without installing or moving network cables.
WLAN technology provides users with many convenient and cost saving features:
• Mobility: WLANs provide LAN users with access to real-time information anywhere in their
organization, providing service opportunities that are impossible with wired networks.
• Ease of Installation: Installing is easy for novice and expert users alike, eliminating the
need to install network cables in walls and ceilings.
• Scalability: WLANs can be configured in a variety of topologies to adapt to specific appli-
cations and installations. Configurations are easily changed and range from peer-to-peer
networks suitable for a small number of users to full infrastructure networks of thousands
of users roaming over a broad area.

LAN Modes
Wireless LANs can be configured in one of two ways:
Table 1: LAN modes
Ad-hoc
Networking Also known as a peer-to-peer network, an ad-hoc net-
work is one that allows all workstations and computers
in the network to act as servers to all other users on
the network. Users on the network can share files,
print to a shared printer, and access the Internet with a
shared modem. However, with ad-hoc networking,
users can only communicate with other wireless LAN
computers that are in the wireless LAN workgroup, and
are within range.
Infrastructure
Networking Infrastructure networking differs from ad-hoc network-
ing in that it includes an access point. Unlike the ad-
hoc structure where users on the LAN contend the
shared bandwidth, on an infrastructure network the
access point can manage the bandwidth to maximize
bandwidth utilization.
Additionally, the access point enables users on a wire-
less LAN to access an existing wired network, allowing
wireless users to take advantage of the wired networks
resources, such as Internet, email, file transfer, and
printer sharing.
Infrastructure networking has the following advantages
over ad-hoc networking:
• Extended range: each wireless LAN computer
within the range of the access point can commu-
nicate with other wireless LAN computers within
range of the access point.
• Roaming: the access point enables a wireless
LAN computer to move through a building and
still be connected to the LAN.
• Wired to wireless LAN connectivity: the access
point bridges the gap between wireless LANs and
their wired counterparts.
Notes on wireless LAN configuration
When configuring a wireless LAN (WLAN), be sure to note the following points:
• Optimize the performance of the WLAN by ensuring that the distance between access
points is not too far. In most buildings, WLAN cards operate within a range of 100 ~ 300
feet, depending on the thickness and structure of the walls.
• Radio waves can pass through walls and glass but not metal. If there is interference in
transmitting through a wall, it may be that the wall has reinforcing metal in its structure. In-
stall another access point to circumvent this problem.
• Floors usually have metal girders and metal reinforcing struts that interfere with WLAN
transmission.
