FCC ID:2AVFNMGA6230A
This device complies with Part 15 of the 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.

INTEGRATION INSTRUCTIONS:
This modular transmitter complies with FCC Rules Part 2, Part 22, Part 24, Part 27.
Specific operational use conditions
Antenna Change Notice to Host manufacturer
Recommend using antenna which certified with this module mentioned in this manual.
If you desire to increase antenna gain and either change antenna type or use same antenna type certified, a Class II permissive change application is required to be filed by us, or you (host manufacturer) can take responsibility through the change in FCC ID (new application) procedure followed by a Class II permissive change application, based on the new emissions testing. Please perform testing on frequency bands where the antenna gain is highest, worstcase band-edges based on original filing, and only on frequency bands where the antenna gain is highest.

Notice regarding trace antenna to host product manufacturer
Any deviation(s) from the defined parameters of the antenna trace, as described by this instruction, host product manufacturer must notify us that you wish to change the antenna trace design. In this case, a Class II permissive change application is required to be filed by us, or you (host manufacturer) can take responsibility through the change in FCC ID (new application) procedure followed by a Class II permissive change application.

RF exposure compliance instruction:
This module is limited to installation in mobile application with a minimum separation distance of at least 20 cm from a person’s body, a separate approval is required for all other operating configurations, including portable configurations with respect to §2.1093 and different antenna configurations.
Host product manufacturer shall at least provide information of minimum separation distance to end users in RF exposure compliance statement to end users in their end-product manuals.

This module is tested with the following antenna

Antenna Type Brand/ manufacturer Model No. Max. Antenna Gain

module
Xxx

Labelling and compliance statement instruction for host product manufacturer
Please notice that if the FCC identification number is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains FCC ID: 2AVFNMGA6230A” any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used.

§ 15.19 Labelling requirements shall be complied on end user device.
Labelling rules for special device, please refer to §2.925, § 15.19 (a)(5) and relevant KDB publications. For E-label, please refer to §2.935.
FCC regulatory Compliance Statement mentioned in this manual shall be properly included in host product manual per FCC Rules.
The host product manufacturer shall be aware not to provide information to the end user on how to install or remove this module in your host product manual.

Guide on test modes and additional testing requirements
Host product manufacturer is ultimately responsible for testing their end- product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, additional transmitter(s) in the host, etc.).

Disclaimer on additional testing, Part 15 Subpart B compliance of Host Product
This modular transmitter is only FCC authorized for the specific rule parts listed on our grant, host product manufacturer is responsible for compliance to any other FCC rules that apply to the host not covered by the modular transmitter grant of certification. Host manufacturer in any case shall ensure host product which is installed and operating with the module is in compliant with Part 15B requirements.
Please note that For a Class B or Class A digital device or peripheral, the instructions furnished the user manual of the end-user product shall include statement set out in §15.105 Information to the user or such similar statement and place it in a prominent location of host product manual.
Original texts from FCC Rules are as following you may refer to: For Class B

Note: 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.

For Class A
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
Warning: changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
Disposal of Electronic and Electrical Waste
Pursuant to the WEEE EU Directive, electronic and electrical waste must not be disposed of with unsorted waste. Please contact your local recycling authority for disposal of this product.
