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 with important announcements Important Note:
Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with
a minimum distance 0cm between the radiator and your body.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter. Country Code selection feature to be disabled
for products marketed to the US/Canada.
This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following
conditions:
- The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and users, and
- The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna,
- For all products market in the US, OEM has to limit the operation channels in CH1 to CH11 for 2.4G band by supplied firmware programming tool. OEM shall not supply any tool or info to the end-user regarding Regulatory Domain change. (if modular only test Channel 1-11)
As long as the three conditions above are met, further transmitter testing
will not be required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for
testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required
with this module installed.
Important Note:
In the event that 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.
