Notice
During mounting
- Please do not use metals for a chassis setting in this module.
- Please do not mount parts under this module except a specified connector.
During operation
- The products might receive radio wave interference from electronic devices such as Wireless LAN devices, Bluetooth devices, and so on that radiate electromagnetic waves.
- Confirm that the operation temperature is within the specified range described in the product specification.
- Products should be used at rated voltage.
- Check the polarity of the product before power on. No reverse connecting.
- No direct contact with water, oil, acid or alkaline.
- No crushing, nail penetrating or disassembling products.
- No discarding. Dispose based on the local policy and law.
Storage
- No storage in a condition with a relative humidity exceeding 85% or with corrosive gases. It is easy to cause damage and corrosion of the module, resulting in disconnection.
- For long-term storage, place the product in a well-ventilated condition at – 10°C -50°C, with a relative humidity below 85%.
FCC STATEMENT
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
transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
Radiation Exposure Statement:
For mobile use
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.
For portable use
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are
associated with using low-power wireless devices. There is no proof, however,
that these low-power wireless devices are safe. Low-power wireless devices
emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while
being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating
tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes
no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have
not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some
biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by
additional research. Falcon has been tested and found to comply with FCC
radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets
the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines.
List of applicable FCC rules
This module has been tested and found to comply with Part15C, Section 15.247
requirements for Modular Approval.
End Product Labeling
The end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following:
“Contains FCC ID: 2A8JK-FIDES-LINK”. The grantee’s FCC ID can be used only
when all FCC compliance requirements are met. The end product shall bear the
following 15.19 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.
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 Specification list below:
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.
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 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 tests 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.
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 that integrates this module. The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warning as shown in this manual.
- The host integrator must follow the integration instructions provided in this document and ensure that the composite-system end product complies with the requirements by a technical assessment or evaluation to the rules and to KDB Publication 996369.
- The host integrator installing this module into their product must ensure that the final composite product complies with the requirements by a technical assessment or evaluation to the rules, including the transmitter operation and should refer to guidance in KDB 996369.
OEM/Host manufacturer responsibilities
OEM/Host manufacturers are ultimately responsible for the compliance of the
Host and Module. The final product must be reassessed against all the
essential requirements of the FCC rule such as FCC Part 15 Subpart B before it
can be placed on the US market. This includes reassessing the transmitter
module for compliance with the Radio and EMF essential requirements of the FCC
rules. This module must not be incorporated into any other device or system
without retesting for compliance as multi-radio and combined equipment.
IMPORTANT NOTE
In the event that these conditions can not 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 can not be used on
the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be
responsible for reevaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and
obtaining a separate FCC authorization.
The module is tested for standalone mobile RF exposure use conditions. Any
other usage conditions such as co-location with other transmitters) or being
used in a portable condition will need a separate reassessment through a class
Il permissive change application or new certification.
How to make changes
Only the grantee is permitted to make permissive changes. Please contact us at
