However, the stewards ruled that the messages relating to the settings on the car were within the rules.
In a statement, the team said: "The Team accepts the Stewards' interpretation of the regulation, their decision and the associated penalty."
The Rosberg incident is the latest episode in a row about over-regulation in Formula One, and Mercedes plan on discussing the matter further with the sport's governing body.
"During the coming weeks, we will continue discussions with the relevant F1 stakeholders on the subject of the perceived over-regulation of the sport," the statement added.
