15. Conformity Assessment Issues
The Telit GE865 Module has been assessed in order to satisfy the essential requirements of the
R&TTE Directive 1999/05/EC (Radio Equipment & Telecommunications Terminal
Equipments) to demonstrate the conformity against the harmonised standards with the final
involvement of a Notified Body.
By using our certified module, the evaluation under Article 3.2 of the R&TTE is considerably
reduced, allowing significant savings in term of cost and time in the certification process of the
final product.
In all cases the assessment of the final product must be made against the Essential requirements
of the R&TTE Directive Articles 3.1(a) and (b), Safety and EMC respectively, and any relevant
Article 3.3 requirements.
This Hardware User Guide contain all the information you may need for developing a product
meeting the R&TTE Directive.
Furthermore the GE865 Module module is FCC Approved as module to be installed in other
devices. This device is to be used only for fixed and mobile applications. If the final product
after integration is intended for portable use, a new application and FCC is required.
The GE865 Module is conforming to the following US Directives:
• Use of RF Spectrum. Standards: FCC 47 Part 24 (GSM 1900)
• EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility). Standards: FCC47 Part 15
