Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement

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 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.

FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

  1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and

  2. this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
    This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
    This module is intended for OEM integrators only. Per FCC KDB 996369 D03 OEM Manual v01 guidance, the following conditions must be strictly followed when using this certified module:
    KDB 996369 D03 OEM Manual v01 rule sections:

  3. List of applicable FCC rules
    This module has been tested for compliance to FCC Part 15.

  4. Summarize the specific operational use conditions The module is tested for standalone mobile RF exposure use condition. Any other usage conditions such as co-location with other transmitter(s) or being used in a portable condition will need a separate reassessment through a class II permissive change application or new certification.

  5. Limited module procedures
    Not applicable.

  6. Trace antenna designs
    Not applicable.

  7. RF exposure considerations
    This equipment complies with FCC mobile radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20cm between the radiator & your body. If the module is installed in a portable host, a separate SAR evaluation is required to confirm compliance with relevant FCC portable RF exposure rules.

  8. Antennas
    The following antennas have been certified for use with this module; antennas of the same type with equal or lower gain may also be used with this module. The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm can be maintained between the antenna and users.

Antenna Type| 2.4GHz: PIFA antenna with 2.6dBi gain 5.0GHz: PIFA antenna with 3.3dBi  gain
---|---
Antenna connector| IPEX
7. Label and compliance information
The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following: “Contains FCC ID: NJC-FLY5M02”. The grantee’s FCC ID can be used only when all FCC compliance requirements are met.

8. 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 other transmitter(s) or portable use will require a separate class II permissive change re-evaluation or new certification.
9. Additional testing, Part 15 Subpart B disclaimer This transmitter module is 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 final host will still need to be reassessed for compliance to this portion of rule 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 module installed.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
This module is intended for OEM integrator. The OEM integrator is still responsible for the FCC compliance requirement of the end product, which integrates this module.
A minimum distance of 20 cm must be maintained between the user and the antenna of the integrated module. Under such configuration, the FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for a population/uncontrolled environment can be satisfied.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.

USER’S MANUAL OF THE END PRODUCT:
In the user’s manual of the end product, the end user has to be informed to keep at least 20 cm separation with the antenna while this end product is installed and operated. The end user has to be informed that the FCC radio- frequency exposure guidelines for an uncontrolled environment can be satisfied. The end user has to also be informed that any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment. If the size of the end product is smaller than 8 cm x 10 cm, then additional FCC part 15.19 statement is required to be available in the user’s manual:
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

LABEL OF THE END PRODUCT:
The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following ” Contains TX FCC ID: NJC-FLY5M02 “.If the size of the end product is larger than 8 cm x 10 cm, then the following FCC part 15.19 statement has to also be available on the label:
