AGENCYCERTIFICATIONS
HandSoldering
Hand soldering is possible. When using a soldering iron, follow IPC recommendations (reference document IPC-7711)
Rework
The MeshConnect Module can be unsoldered from the host board. Use of a hot air rework tool should be programmable
and the solder joint and module should not exceed the maximum peak reow temperature of 250 ºC.
Caution If temperature ramps exceed the reow temperature prole, module and component damage may occur due to
thermal shock. Avoid overheating.
WarningNever attempt a rework on the module itself, e.g. replacing individual components. Such actions will
terminate warranty coverage.
Additional Grounding
Attempts to improve module or system grounding by soldering braids, wires, or cables onto the module RF shield cover is
done at the customer's own risk. The numerous ground pins at the module perimeter should be sufcient for optimum
immunity to external RF interference.

or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
OEMResponsibilitytotheFCCRulesandRegulations
The MeshConnect Module has been certied per FCC Part 15 rules for integration into products without further testing or
certication. To fulll the FCC certication requirements, the OEM of the MeshConnect Module must ensure that the
information provided on the MeshConnect Label is placed on the outside of the nal product. The MeshConnect Module is
labeled with its own FCC ID Number. If the FCC ID 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 Transmitter Module FCC ID: W7Z-ICP0” or “Contains FCC
ID: W7Z-ICP0”
The OEM of the MeshConnect Module must only use the approved antenna, (PCB Trace Antenna) that has been certied
with this module. The OEM of the MeshConnect Module must test their nal product conguration to comply with Uninten-
tional Radiator Limits before declaring FCC compliance per Part 15 of the FCC rules.
