Introduction

This document provides instructions and steps that the OEM Integrator must follow when designing and manufacturing a system using a Qualcomm® design radio module, the “Module”.

CAUTION : Failure to follow the instructions in this document may invalidate the FCC certification and authorization of the Module for use in the U.S. and in other countries. The OEM integrator is responsible for all system-level EMI/EMC and product safety testing and certification that apply to the host system in the U.S. and other countries where the system will be marketed or sold. for the Module.

The Qualcomm modular certifications described in this document only apply to radio conformance May Contain 1

Applicable Module

Regulatory model : QCNFA765
FCC ID : J9C-QCNFA765
IC : 2723A-QCNF A765

Available Global Modular Approvals from Qualcomm

Module certification is limited to those countries in which Qualcomm has obtained radio modular approvals
For integrators to access the current list of certified countries:

1. Log on to the Qualcomm CreatePoint system.
2. Search for the regulatory document under chip model WCN6855.

NOTE : If integrators do not have access to the Qualcomm CreatePoint system, contact a Qualcomm account representative to request access to the country list and modular certificates.

OEM integrators must receive their own radio certification for each country where the system will be sold if a modular certification for that country is not available from Qualcomm.

Additional Regulatory Conformance Testing and/or Submissions Required by the Integrator

Global modular certifications only apply to radio conformance for the Module.

• The OEM integrator is responsible for any additional system-level EMI/EMC and product safety testing and certifications that apply in the U.S. and other countries where the host system is containing the Module. This includes, but is not limited to, Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Part 15 Class B Digital Emissions, China CCC, Taiwan BSMI, Korea KC, ETSI EN 301 489-17, and others.
  • These system-level EMC tests are done with the Module installed and included in the scope of the submission.

Modular radio certification is not possible in some countries.

For these countries, OEM integrators must ensure radio certification for the end system is obtained before placing the product on the market.

The current list of applicable countries is provided by Qualcomm.

For questions, additional regulatory conformance testing information, and/or related submissions, contact a Qualcomm account representative.

Compliant/Allowable Tx Power File

This file contains the transmit power settings that are programmed in the board-data file in the software. The software image is installed at the time of manufacture of the module.

The board data information is provided by Qualcomm. Contact your Qualcomm account representative for details on the board data file (BDF).

CAUTION: For US 6GHz. This module is under control Low-power indoor access point and Standard power Access Point, And can adjust a transmitter’s output power based on access point categories which to connected (for example. Module transmit power/PSD will be limited to low power indoor compliant power when connect to LPI AP). This function is auto controlled by software.

Allowable Antennas to Use with the Radio Module

The module is certified for use only with certain types of antenna described in this chapter.

NOTE : Allowed antenna type: PIFA and MONOPOLE type with omnidirectional pattern antenna.

NOTE : End host product must use integrated antenna that antenna is integrated in host mechanicalhousing.

Table 6-1 Allowed maximum gain (dBi), including antenna cable loss

CAUTION: For US , Canada and Taiwan, Use of other antenna types or the same type of antenna but with higher gain than listed above is not allowed without additional testing and appropriate permissiv change approval.

Use of other similar type antennas may only require a C1PC to confirm SAR performance is the same or better, i.e., lower, but only an equivalent type antenna can be used without any additional testing/submission.

Contact your Qualcomm account representative for additional guidance if you choose to use different antenna types or higher gain antennas in the end system.
Some examples of antennas Not considered the same type as PIFA or Monopole:

Dipole

• PCB trace
• Patch
• Chip antennas

In addition, regulatory agencies in Japan, Korea, and Taiwan require submission of antenna specification sheets for all antenna models used with the Qualcomm module. This notification process must be followed by the integrator before the original product launch and whenever new host systems, with new antenna models, are launched.

The antenna type does not matter in Japan and Korea antenna filing/listing as long as host platform antenna gain does not exceed max. gain value as represented in Table 6-1.

Notification of all antenna models to be used with the Module

For training on the notification process and submitting antenna specifications, send an email to: qca.ant@qti.Qualcomm.com

Antenna Placement Inside the Host System and RF Exposure

The FCC and regulatory bodies of other countries impose strict conditions and limitations on the RF exposure levels of end products.
Acceptable RF exposure levels for the Module depend on:

• Transmit power.
• Location of the transmitting antenna(s) inside the host system.
• Expected separation of the transmitting antennas to the end user.

OEM integrators must take great care to ensure each host system complies with the applicable RF exposure requirements.

For mobile devices

The antenna-to-user separation distance must be greater than 20 cm. verlas
CAUTION : Failure to adhere to these separation/spacing rules will invalidate the FCC certification for the Module.

• This separation is measured between the closest point of each transmitting antenna inside the host device to the point of contact by the user or nearby person outside of the host device.
• For notebooks/netbooks/laptops with antenna(s) in the display section, the LCD is opened 90 degrees/perpendicular to the keyboard. The separation distance is then measured from the nearest point of each transmitting antenna to the bottom of the host.

NOTE : When one or more of these conditions cannot be met for a particular host system, additional testing is required to secure the necessary certifications for the system. Contact your Qualcomm account representative with any questions regarding compliance for host systems) with these restrictions.

NOTE : These restrictions do not apply to a receive-only antenna.

Simultaneous Transmission with Other Integrated or Plug-In Radios

The FCC imposes conditions and limitations when additional radios) are co- located in the same host system as the Qualcomm Module with capability to transmit simultaneously.

• Co-locating other radios, such as an integrated or plug-in wireless WAN/cellular radio with the Qualcomm wireless LAN module requires additional evaluation and possible submission for authorization from the FCC.
• The rules are highly dependent on the characteristics of the particular radios that are co- located and simultaneously transmitting.
• The OEM integrator should seek guidance from a knowledgeable test lab or consultant to determine if additional testing and FCC certification is required.
• In this case, failure to evaluate and follow the required FCC procedures will invalidate the

FCC certification of the Module and end system.
