QUECTEL EC200 LTE Module
OEM/Integrators Installation Manual
Important Notice to OEM integrators
- This module is limited to OEM installation ONLY.
- This module is limited to installation in mobile or fixed applications, according to Part 2.1091(b).
- The separate approval is required for all other operating configurations, including portable configurations with respect to Part 2.1093 and different antenna configurations
- For FCC Part 15.31 (h) and (k): The host manufacturer is responsible for additional testing to verify compliance as a composite system.
When testing the host device for compliance with Part 15 Subpart B, the host manufacturer is required to show compliance with Part 15 Subpart B while the transmitter module(s) are installed and operating. The modules should be transmitting and the evaluation should confirm that the module’s intentional emissions are compliant (i.e. fundamental and out of band emissions). The host manufacturer must verify that there are no additional unintentional emissions other than what is permitted in Part 15 Subpart B or emissions are compliant with the transmitter(s) rule(s). The Grantee will provide guidance to the host manufacturer for Part 15 B requirements if needed.

notice that any deviation(s) from the defined parameters of the antenna trace,
as described by the instructions, require that the host product manufacturer
must notify to Quectel that they wish to change the antenna trace design. In
this case, a Class II permissive change application is required to be filed by
the USI, or the host manufacturer can take responsibility through the change
in FCC ID (new application) procedure followed by a Class II permissive change
application
End Product Labeling
When the module is installed in the host device, the FCC/IC 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 re-moved. If not, a second label must be
placed on the outside of the final device that contains the following text:
“Contains FCC ID: XMR202205EC200UAU” “Contains IC: XMR202205EC200UAU”. The FCC
ID/IC ID can be used only when all FCC/IC compliance requirements are met.
Antenna
- The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and users,
- The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna.
In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for example certain laptop
configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC/IC
authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID/IC 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/IC authorization.
To comply with FCC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and human
exposure to RF radiation, maximum antenna gain (including cable loss) must not
exceed

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 which integrates this module. The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warning as shown in this manual
Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
- This device may not cause harmful interference, and
- this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
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 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.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
List of applicable FCC rules
This module has been tested and found to comply with part 22, part 24, part 27
requirements for Modular Approval.
The modular transmitter is only FCC authorized for the specific rule parts
(i.e., FCC transmitter rules) listed on the grant, and that the host product
manufacturer is responsible for compliance to any other FCC rules that apply
to the host not covered by the modular transmitter grant of certification. If
the grantee markets their product as being Part 15 Subpart B compliant (when
it also contains unintentional-radiator digital circuity), then the grantee
shall provide a notice stating that the final host product still requires Part
15 Subpart B compliance testing with the modular transmitter installed.
This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions: (For module device use)
- 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.
As long as 2 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
module installed.
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
minimum distance 20 cm between the radiator & your body.
