Regulatory Notices Federal Communication Commission (FCC) USA This device complies with Part 15 of 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 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 residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy, and if it is not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, it 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:

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. WARNING: Any changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the users authority to operate the equipment. This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator and your body. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Caution: Operation of this device is restricted to indoor use only. For operation within 5.15 ~ 5.25GHz frequency range, it is restricted to indoor environment. ment doit tre install et utilis avec un minimum de 20cm de distance entre la source de rayonnement et votre corps.

Ltd., Taoyuan Branch The new equipment to be Granted in this new application (Model: FAP-231FL), only differs from the initial version, (Model: FAP-231F) are with the only 1 following point:

Remove BLE / Zigbee. Except Remove BLE / Zigbee which not involves RF parameter, and antenna gain. Also, both of these two equipment have the same following points. The Same of 2.4GHz / 5GHz WLAN chip. The Same common design layout and components of RF main board. The Same of output power. The changes described above do not affect the radio characteristics (WLAN 2.4GHz / 5GHz) of the equipment. Based on engineering judgment of the device design, radio test data retrieved from the initial application Model:

FAP-231F can be re-used for the Model: FAP-231FL equipment.
