Product page, Datasheet

The Windows driver for this device has three device IDs specified...

  • 0a5c:bd13 (default BCM4323 ID, probably)
  • 0a5c:bd16 (appears to be 2.4GHz only)
  • 0a5c:bd17 (default BCM43236 ID, probably)

Netcomm indicates this device is using BCM43236 in their datasheet, therefore, it is assumed it is using the default BCM43236 USB ID. The revision (BCM43236 / BCM43236B) is not known.
