This UWB+BLE Module has been FCC/ISED certified as Single Modular Approval. It is important to follow the guidelines and instructions provided to ensure proper usage of the device.

Antenna Compatibility
The module is approved to operate with specific antenna types. Antennas not included in the certified list, or those with a gain greater than the indicated maximum gain for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device.

Please refer to the next pages of the user manual for detailed antenna application guidance, including antenna patterns and design files.

Guidance to Host Product Manufacturer:

• If you are a host product manufacturer using this module, please ensure that you provide appropriate warnings in your product’s instructions, stating that the product is limited to professional users only.
• Additionally, it is important to use the unique antenna connector provided by Murata for Part 15 authorized transmitters used in the host product. For a list of acceptable unique connectors, please contact Murata.
• If there are any deviations from the defined parameters of the antenna trace as described in the instructions, the host product manufacturer must notify Murata and obtain approval for changes in the antenna trace design. This may require filing a Class II permissive change application.

FCC & IC Regulatory Compliance Statement:

• This module complies with FCC radiation exposure limits for an uncontrolled environment. It is recommended to install and operate the equipment with a minimum distance of 20cm between the radiator and the body. The transmitter should not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
• If you wish to increase antenna gain or make changes to the antenna type, a Class II permissive change application must be filed by Murata or the host manufacturer, depending on the circumstances.

• This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 ofthe 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.

IC Statements

This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1. this device may not cause interference, and
2. this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

• Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent is tropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.
• This equipment complies with FCC/IC RSS-102 radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.
• When the Industry Canada certification 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 be use wording ”Contains transmitter module IC: 772CLB2AB” or “Contains IC: 772C-LB2AB”.
