FCC Information
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
this device may not cause harmful interference, and
this device must accept any interference received; including interference that
may cause undesired operation. Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
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 or more of the following
measures:

- ii -
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 RF Radiation Exposure Statement:
This Transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with
a minimum distance of 20 centimeters between the radiator and your body.

Terminology Introduction
This chapter will introduce terminology about IEEE802.11 what referred by this
manual. And in this character we will explain terminology according to
IEEE802.11 Std.
Ad-Hoc Network(Peer to Peer)
A network composed solely of stations within mutual communication range of
each other via the WIRELESS medium(WM). An Ad Hoc network is typically
created in a spontaneous manner. The principal distinguishing characteristic of an
ad hoc network is limited temporal and spatial extent. These limitations allow the
act of creating and dissolving the ad hoc network to be sufficiently
straightforward and convenient so as to be achievable by nontechnical users of
the network facilities; i.e., no specialized “technical skills” are required and little
or no investment of time or additional resources is required beyond the stations
that are to participate in the ad hoc network. The term ad hoc is often used as
slang to refer to an independent basic service set(IBSS).
Infrastructure Network
The infrastructure includes the distribution system medium (DSM), access
point(AP), and portal entities. It is also the logical location of distribution and
integration service functions of an extended service set(ESS). An infrastructure
contains one or more APs and zero or more portals in addition to the distribution
system(DS).
Basic Service Set(BSS)
A set of stations controlled by a single coordination function.
BSSID
Basic service set identifier
Station service(SS)
The set of services that support transport of medium access control(MAC)
service data units(MSDUs) between stations within a basic service set(BSS)
SSID
Station service identifier

- 2 -
Association
The service used to establish access point/station(AP/STA) mapping and enable
STA invocation of the distribution system services(DSSs).
Authentication
The service used to establish the identify of one station as a member of the set of
stations authorized to associate with another station.
Channel
An instance of medium use for the purpose of passing protocol data units(PDUs)
that may be used simultaneously, in the same volume of space, with other
instances of medium use(no other channels) by other instances of the same
physical layer(PHY), with an acceptably low frame error ratio due to mutual
interference. Some PHYs provide only one channel, whereas others provide
multiple channels. Examples of channel types are shown in the following tables
Single channel n-channel
Narrowband radio-frequency(RF)
channel Frequency division multiplexed channels
Baseband infrared Direct sequence spread
spectrum(DSSS) with code division
multiple access
Wired equivalent privacy(WEP)
The optional cryptographic confidentiality algorithm specified by IEEE 802.11
used to provide data confidentiality that is subjectively equivalent to the
confidentiality of a wired local area network(LAN) medium that does not employ
cryptographic techniques to enhance privacy.
