Product Usage Instructions
Antenna Placement
The antenna must be installed with a minimum distance of 20cm maintained
between the antenna and the host platform for standalone mobile RF exposure
use conditions.
RF Exposure Considerations
This device complies with FCC radiation exposure limits for an uncontrolled
environment. Ensure a minimum distance of 20cm between the radiator and your
body during installation and operation.
Antenna Type and Gain
Use antennas of the same type with equal or lower gain as listed in the
specifications section. Using other types of antennas or higher gain antennas
may require additional authorization for operation.
End Product Labelling Compliance Information
When installing the module in the host device, ensure the FCC ID label is
visible through a window on the final device or easily accessible when an
access panel is removed. If not visible, a second label containing the FCC ID
must be placed on the outside of the final device.
FAQ
- Q: What should I do if I cannot meet the specified conditions for FCC authorization?
A: If the conditions cannot be met (e.g., certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), the FCC authorization is no longer valid. In such cases, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product, including the transmitter, and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.
FCC
List of applicable FCC rules
CFR 47 FCC Part 15 Subpart C has been investigated. It applies to the modular
transmitter
Specific Operational Use Conditions – Antenna Placement Within the Host
Platform
The module is tested for standalone mobile RF exposure use conditions.
- The antenna must be installed such that 20cm is maintained between the antenna and users,
- The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna.
If these conditions cannot be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID cannot be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.

RF Exposure Considerations
This device complies with FCC 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.
Antenna Type and Gain
The following antennas have been certified for use with this module. Only
antennas of the same type with equal or lower gain may also be used with this
module. Other types of antennas and/or higher gain antennas may require the
additional authorization for operation.

Labelling Compliance Information
End Product Labelling Compliance Information
When the module is installed in the host device, the FCC ID label must be
visible through a window on the final device or it must be visible when an
access panel, door or cover is easily removed. If not, a second label must be
placed on the outside of the final device that contains the following text:
“Contains FCC ID: 2AG87RM1700-1N”. The FCC ID can be used only when all FCC
compliance requirements are met.
Information on Test Modes and Additional Testing Requirements
This transmitter is tested in a standalone mobile RF exposure condition and
any co-located or simultaneous transmission with another transmitter (s) class
II permissive change re-evaluation or new FCC authorization. Host manufacturer
installed this modular with single modular approval should perform the test of
radiated emission and spurious emission according to FCC part 15C, 15.209,
15.207 requirement, only if the test result comply with FCC part 15C, 15.209,
15.207 requirement, then the host can be sold legally.
Additional testing, Part 15 Subpart B Disclaimer
This transmitter modular us tested as a subsystem and its certification does
not cover the FCC Part 15 Subpart B rules requirement applicable to the final
host. The final host will still need to be reassessed for compliance to this
portion of rules requirements if applicable. As long as all conditions above
are met, further transmitter test will not be required. However, the OEM
integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any
additional compliance requirements required with this modular installed.
Manual Information to The End User
The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user
regarding how to install or remove this RF module in the user’s manual of the
end product that integrates this module. The host integrator must follow the
integration instructions provided in this document and ensure that the
composite system end product complies with the requirements by a technical
assessment or evaluation to the rules and to KDB Publication 996369.
The host integrator installing this module into their product must ensure that
the final composite product complies with the requirements by a technical
assessment or evaluation to the rules, including the transmitter operation and
should refer to guidance in KDB Publication 996369.
OEM/Host Manufacturer Responsibilities
OEM/Host manufacturers are ultimately responsible for the compliance of the Host and Module. The final product must be reassessed against all the essential requirements of the FCC rule such as FCC Part 15 Subpart B before it can be placed on the US market. This includes reassessing the transmitter module for compliance with the Radio and RF Exposure essential requirements of the FCC rules.
How to Make Changes – Important Note
If these conditions cannot be met (for example certain laptop configurations
or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no
longer considered valid and the FCC ID cannot be used on the final product. In
these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating
the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC
authorization.
