Motorola WDE1000 User Manual page 3

Regulatory Requirements
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requires
application for certification of digital devices in accordance
with CFR Title 47, Part 15 and Part 90. This includes Elec-
tromagnetic Energy Exposure (EME) testing. As the
WDE1000/1100 is not a stand-alone modem but is a PC
card, the WDE1000/1100 cannot be tested by itself for
EME certification and was tested while inserted in a laptop
computer.
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.
The WDE1000/1100 transmitters, 802.11a@4.9GHz and
802.11b/g@2.4GHz will not work simultaneously when
used in the present configuration.
WDE1000 only.
The WDE1000 was approved by
NOTE
the United States Federal Commu-
nications Commission (FCC) for
use with internal on board
antennas.
For external antenna use in the
United States, the Federal
Communications Commission
(FCC) requires that an approval
will be obtained.
Safety and General Information
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFI-
CIENT OPERATION.
READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING YOUR
MOTOROLA WDE1000/1100.
RF Operational Characteristics
Your Motorola product contains a radio frequency transmit-
ter to convey the information you wish to send as well as
occasional automatic signals used to sustain connection to
the wireless network, and a receiver which enables you to
receive communication and connection information from
the network.
Antenna Care (WDE1000 only)
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments
could damage the radio product and may violate FCC regu-
lations. When using any approved accessory antenna, posi-
tion it at least eight inches (20 cm) from any part of any
person.
DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio product is "IN
USE". Holding the antenna affects communication quality
and may cause the product to operate at a higher power
level than needed.
Compliance and Control Guidelines and Operating
Instructions for WDE1100 Installed as Fixed Site
If WDE1100 is installed at a fixed location and operated as
a fixed unit, the antenna installation must comply with the
following requirements in order to ensure optimal perform-
ance and compliance with the RF energy exposure limits in
the standards and guidelines listed in "Product Operation
and EME Exposure" on page iii:
• The antenna should be mounted outside the building on
the roof or a tower if at all possible.
• As with all fixed site antenna installations, it is the
responsibility of the licensee to manage the site in
accordance with applicable regulatory requirements
and may require additional compliance actions such as
site survey measurements, signage, and site access
restrictions in order to ensure that exposure limits are
not exceeded.
Product Operation and EME Exposure
Your Motorola product is designed to comply with the fol-
lowing national and international standards and guidelines
regarding exposure of human beings to radio frequency
electromagnetic energy (EME):
• United States Federal Communications Commission,
Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR part 2 sub-part J.
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Insti-
tute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
C95. 1-1992.
•
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE). C95. 1-1999 Edition.
•
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP) 1998.
•
Ministry of Health (Canada). Safety Code 6. Limits of
Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic
Fields in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz,
1999.
• Australian Communications Authority Radiocommu-
nications (Electromagnetic Radiation - Human Expo-
sure) Standard 2003.
• ANATEL, Brasil Regulatory Authority, Resolution
303 (July 2, 2002) "Regulation of the limitation of
exposure to electrical, magnetic, and electromagnetic
fields in the radio frequency range between 9 kHz and
300 GHz." "Attachment to Resolution 303 from July 2,
2002."
The WDE1000 has been tested for compliance with FCC
RF exposure limits in laptop computer configurations with
side PCMCIA slots, and can be used in laptop computers
with substantially similar physical dimensions, construc-
tion, and electrical and RF characteristics.
