Additional Testing and Evaluation for Host Product
The module is limited and complies with the requirements of FCC Part 15.207
and 15.209. According to FCC Part 15 Subpart C section 15.212, the radio
elements must have the radio frequency circuitry shielded. However, due to
there is no shield for this module, this module is granted as a Limited
Modular Approval. A C2PC is required for a new host application. Only Grantees
are permitted to make permissive changes. Please contact us for further
processing with SMART Technologies Inc. The OEM integrators should follow the
following C2PC test plan, based on Module RF report “ENS2207110035W00301R”
under FCC ID: QCI-IDNMOD1. For the host product to install this module exactly
according to this guide, and did not make any hardware or software
modifications to the module or modified the software but does not affect the
radio characteristics, the host product will need to evaluate according to FCC
Part 15 Subpart C §15.207 and 15.209 for NFC:
- a. Maximum filed strength of fundamental.
- b. Radiated spurious emissions from 9 kHz to 1GHz with the other co-located transmitters.
The host product shall be evaluated to ensure continuous compliance for the FCC rules that apply to the host product. Additional guidance for testing host products is provided in KDB Publication 996369 D02 and D04. This module was tested as a subsystem and its certification does not cover the FCC Part 15 Subpart B (unintentional radiator) rule requirement applicable to the final host. The host will still need to be reassessed for compliance to this portion of the rule requirements. If the host product is not installed according to this guide, the module certification will be invalid and a new grant certification will be required for the host product.
The NFC module is made into a PCBA, and the factory will be connected to the main board of the IFP of the whole machine through wires and supply power to the NFC module. The NFC PCBA is mounted in the internal structure of the whole machine (on the back of the front frame), so that the IFP of the whole machine can get the NFC function.
