“FCC RF exposure requirements: SAR compliance has been established in the laptop computer(s)
configurations as documented in this OEM Installation Manual, and can be used in laptop computer(s)
with substantially similar physical dimensions, construction, and electrical and RF characteristics.
Use in other devices such a PDAs or lappads is not authorized. This transmitter is restricted for use
with the specific antenna(s) tested in the application for Certification. The antenna(s) used for this
transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.”

MSIMP54GBT2,theWireless 11g+BluetoothCombo miniPCI
Card, isa Type IIIB card, which canbeusedtointegratewith
suchsystemsasnotebook,mini-barebone,PDA,portablePC.
WithMSIMP54GBT2embedded inside,asystemcouldpro-
vide users withtheabilityandflexibilitytoconnect uptoInternet
wirelesslyvia 802.11g withspeedupto54Mbps,and tolink
