Please notice that if the FCC identification number is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains FCC ID: Z4T-WM7628N-A” any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used.
RF Exposure Compliance
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 of 20cm between the radiator & your body. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
Installation Notice
The module is limited to OEM installation ONLY. The OEM integrator is responsible for ensuring that the end-user has no manual instruction to remove or install-module.
The module is limited to installation in the mobile applications; A separate approval is required for all other operating configurations, including portable configurations with respect to Part 2.1093 and different antenna configurations.
FCC Part 15B Compliance of End Device
The OEM integrator is responsible for ensuring that the host product which is installed and operating with the module is in compliant with Part 15B unintentional Radiator requirements, please note that For a Class B digital device or peripheral, the instructions furnished the user manual of the end- user product shall include the following or similar statement, placed in a prominent location in the text of the manual:
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.

2.3 &2.6 Summarize the specific operational use conditions and FCC Radio- Frequency Exposure & Approval Conditions:
Transmitting antenna(s) can only be installed at the display section of the computer. When this device is installed other than notebook computers, at least 20 cm separation distance shall be maintained between the transmitting antenna(s) to the body of user or nearby person.
2.4 Limited module procedures:
The module is an unrestricted module
2.5 Trace antenna designs:
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be collocated or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter within a host device, except in accordance with FCC multi-transmitter product procedures.
2.7 Antennas:
The module grantee is responsible for providing the documentation to the system integrator on restrictions of use, for continuing compliance of the module including the maximum antenna gain (6dBi), minimum antenna gain (3dBi), Antenna connector is a unique I-PEX connector.
2.8 Label and compliance information:
The regulatory label on the final system must include the statement: “ Contains FCC ID: Z4T-WM7628N-A” using the electronic labeling method as documented in KDB 784748.
2.9 Information on test modes and additional testing requirements:
OEM manufacturer should perform additional verification/validation on supported modes and is responsible for validation testing of module + host.
