VHF Analog Telemetry Module
FCC Rule: 1.1307, 1.1310, 2.1091 (b) (d), 2.1093
IC Rule: RSS-119 Section 9, RSS-102 Section 2.2
Description of Compliance:
The JSLM
2
will be professionally installed in the SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) market and
will be mounted with a fixed RTU (Remote Terminal Unit). A typical installation would use a maximum gain
antenna of 10 dBi mounted on a tower. A minimum separation distance of more than 141 cm must be maintained
between the radiating structure and any person to classify as a mobile under FCC MPE regulations. Note: It is the
responsibility of the user to guarantee compliance with the FCC MPE regulations when operating this device
in a way other than described above.
The calculation for the more stringent specification, a General Population/Uncontrolled Mobile device according to
section 2.1091(b) and section 1.1310 Note 2 is shown below:
