   Re: File No. EB-05-SE-018

   Dear Mr. Ho:

   This is an official CITATION, issued pursuant to Section 503(b)(5) of the
   Communications Act of 1934, as amended ("Act"), for marketing unauthorized
   radio frequency devices, specifically, external radio frequency power
   amplifiers, in the United States in violation of Section 302(b) of the Act
   and Sections 2.803 and 15.204(d) of the Commission's Rules ("Rules"). As
   explained below, future violations of the Commission's rules in this
   regard may subject your company to monetary forfeitures.

   On August 2, 2005, staff from the Spectrum Enforcement Division ("SED") of
   the Commission's Enforcement Bureau visited the internet web site store
   for OvisLink products, http://store.ovislink.com ("OvisLink online
   store"). The OvisLink online store listed several models of "power
   boosters," or external radio frequency power amplifiers, for individual
   sale and use in the unlicensed 2.4 GHz band, including the following
   models:

   1) WPA-2400EG23 (200 mW indoor booster, $286.00)

   2) WPA-2400 (1 W outdoor booster, $252.00)

   3) WPA-2400IB-20 (100 mW indoor booster, $65.00)

   4) WPA-2400IG-23 (200 mW indoor booster, $102.00, alternatively listed as
   WAP-2400IG-23)

   On September 7, 2005 and November 15, 2005, the Spectrum Enforcement
   Division ("Division") of the Commission's Enforcement Bureau issued
   letters of inquiry ("LOI") to OvisLink Technologies, Corp. ("OvisLink")
   requesting information as to whether OvisLink was marketing certain
   external radio frequency power amplifiers in the United States.

   In its response to the Division's November 15, 2005 LOI, OvisLink stated
   that it did not manufacture any of the external radio frequency power
   amplifiers. Rather, OvisLink identified Argtek Communications, Inc.
   ("Argtek"), a company located in Taipai, Taiwan, as the manufacturer of
   the amplifiers. OvisLink further stated that it imported two samples of
   each of the following models of external radio frequency power amplifiers:
   the WPA-2400IG-20, WPA-2400IB-20, WPA-2400IB-23, WPA-2400IB-27, and
   WPA-2400EG-23. OvisLink claimed that after evaluating these items,
   however, it decided not to import the units for sale. Additionally,
   OvisLink submitted copies of "certificates" for certain amplifiers which
   it had received from Argtek. These "certificates" in fact were labeled as
   "Declaration of Conformity("DOC") test reports." Finally, OvisLink claimed
   that it currently does not market these devices for sale in the United
   States.

   Subsequently, on January 25, 2006, the Division staff observed that
   OvisLink was marketing certain models of external radio frequency power
   amplifiers on its website. Specifically, we note that the following models
   of power amplifiers were being advertised and marketed for individual sale
   on OvisLink's internet online store, http://store.ovislinkonline.com, on
   January 25, 2006:

   1) WPA-2400EG-27 (500 mW outdoor booster, $299.00)

   2) WPA-2400EG-30 (1 W outdoor booster, $356)

   3) WPA-2400 (1 W outdoor booster, $252.00)

   4) WPA-2400IB-20 (100 mW indoor booster, $65.00, alternatively listed as
   WAP-2400IB-20)

   5) WPA-2400IB-23 (200 mW indoor booster, $69.00, alternatively listed as
   WAP-2400IB-23)

   6) WPA-2400IG-20 (100 mW indoor booster, $102.00, alternatively listed as
   WAP-2400IG-20)

   7) WPA-2400IG-23 (200 mW indoor booster, $102.00, alternatively listed as
   WAP-2400IG-23)

   8) WPA-2400IG-27 (500 mW indoor booster, $136.00, alternatively listed as
   WAP-2400IG-27)

   The company information page,
   [1]http://store.ovislinkonline.com/info.html, stated on January 25, 2006
   that it offered "Free UPS Ground shipping within the U.S. for any order
   over $150!" It also advised visitors of a 8.25% tax "on orders shipped to
   California, U.S."

   Section 302(b) of the Act provides that "[n]o person shall manufacture,
   import, sell, offer for sale, or ship devices or home electronic equipment
   and systems, or use devices, which fail to comply with regulations
   promulgated pursuant to this section." Section 2.803(a)(1) of the
   Commission's implementing regulations provides that:

   no person shall sell or lease, or offer for sale or lease (including
   advertising for sale or lease), or import, ship, or distribute for the
   purpose of selling or leasing or offering for sale or lease, any radio
   frequency device unless . . . [i]n the case of a device subject to
   certification, such device has been authorized by the Commission in
   accordance with the rules in this chapter and is properly identified and
   labeled as required by S 2.925 and other relevant sections in this
   chapter.

   Section 15.204(a) of the Rules provides that:

   Except as otherwise described in paragraphs (b) and (d) of this section,
   no person shall use, manufacture, sell or lease, offer for sale or lease
   (including advertising for sale or lease), or import, ship or distribute
   for purpose of selling or leasing, any external radio frequency power
   amplifier or amplifier kit intended for use with a part 15 intentional
   radiator.

   Further, Section 15.204(d)(1) provides that:

   Except as described in this paragraph, an external radio frequency power
   amplifier or amplifier kit shall be marketed only with the system
   configuration with which it was approved and not as a separate product. An
   external radio frequency power amplifier may be marketed for individual
   sale provided it is intended for use in conjunction with a transmitter
   that operates in the 902-928 MHz, 2400-2483.5 MHz, and 5725-5850 MHz bands
   pursuant to S15.247 of this part or a transmitter that operates in the
   5.725-5.825 GHz band pursuant to S15.407 of this part. The amplifier must
   be of a design such that it can only be connected as part of a system in
   which it has been previously authorized.

   The "certificates" submitted by OvisLink are labeled as DOC test reports.
   External radio frequency power amplifiers are intentional radiators
   subject to certification rather than DOC authorization procedures.
   Furthermore, our review of the FCC's equipment authorization database does
   not show these devices to be certified as part of any transmission system.
   As set forth above, OvisLink marketed these power amplifiers for
   individual sale on its website on August 2, 2005 and January 25, 2006.

   Accordingly, it appears that OvisLink has violated Section 302(b) of the
   Act and Sections 2.803 and 15.204(d) of the Rules by marketing in the
   United States for individual sale external radio frequency power
   amplifiers that have not been certified as part of a transmission system.

   If, after receipt of this citation, OvisLink violates the Communications
   Act or the Commission's rules in any manner described herein, the
   Commission may impose monetary forfeitures not to exceed $11,000 for each
   such violation or each day of a continuing violation.

   If you choose to do so, you may respond to this citation within 30 days
   from the date of this letter either through (1) a personal interview at
   the Commission's Field Office nearest to your place of business, or (2) a
   written statement. Your response should specify the actions that OvisLink
   is taking to ensure that it does not violate the Commission's rules
   governing the marketing of external radio frequency power amplifiers in
   the future.

   The nearest Commission field office is the Los Angeles Office in Los
   Angeles, CA. Please call Jackie Ellington at 202-418-1153 if you wish to
   schedule a personal interview. You should schedule any interview to take
   place within 30 days of the date of this letter. You should send any
