Introduction

Product overview

It fully complies with IEEE802.11ac and IEEE802.11 a/b/g/n standards, offering feature-rich wireless connectivity at high standards, and delivering reliable, cost-effective throughput from an extended distance.
Optimized RF architecture and baseband algorithms provide superb performance and low power consumption. Intelligent MAC design deploys a high efficient offload engine and hardware data processing accelerators which completely offloads the Wi-Fi task of the host processor. MT7615 is designed to support standard-based features in the areas of security, quality of service, and international regulations, giving end-users the greatest performance any time and in any circumstance.
MT7615 supports concurrent dual-band operation at 5GHz and 2.4GHz band (DBDC, Dual-Band-Dual-Concurrent).
With the advent of 802.11ac, multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) is defined. MT7615 supports MU-MIMO with different configurations. An AP is able to use its antenna arrays to transmit multiple frames to different clients at the same time and over the same frequency spectrum.

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:

• 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.

5. Information on test modes and additional testing requirements
   This module has been approved under a stand-alone configuration.
   OEM integrator has to be limited the operation channels in channels 1-11 for the 2.4GHz band.
   The separate approval is required for all other operating configurations, including portable
   configurations with respect to Part 2.1093/RSS-102 and different antenna configurations.
   The information on how to configure test modes for host product evaluation for different operational conditions for a stand-alone modular transmitter in a host, versus with multiple, simultaneously transmitting modules or other transmitters in a host can be found at KDB Publication 996369 D04. OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.).
   IMPORTANT NOTE : In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC/ISED authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC/IC No. cannot be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC/ISED authorization.
