Quick Installation Guide

2.2 List of applicable FCC rules
List the FCC rules that are applicable to the modular transmitter. These are the rules that specifically
establish the bands of operation, the power, spurious emissions, and operating fundamental
frequencies.
DO NOT list compliance to unintentional-radiator rules (Part 15 Subpart B) since that is not a
condition
of a module grant that is extended to a host manufacturer. See also Section 2.10 below concerning the
need to notify host manufacturers that further testing is required.3
Explanation: This module meets the requirements of Part 15 Subpart C Section 15.247
2.3 Summarize the specific operational use conditions
Describe use conditions that are applicable to the modular transmitter, including for example any
limits on antennas, etc. For example, if point-to-point antennas are used that require reduction in
power or compensation for cable loss, then this information must be in the instructions. If the use
condition limitations extend to professional users, then instructions must state that this information
also extends to the host manufacturer’s instruction manual. In addition, certain information may
also be needed, such as peak gain per frequency band and minimum gain, specifically for master
devices in 5 GHz DFS bands.
Explanation: The EUT uses PCB Antenna, antenna gain: 1dBi. There is no restriction on
the installation method.
2.4 Limited module procedures
If a modular transmitter is approved as a “limited module,” then the module manufacturer is
responsible
for approving the host environment that the limited module is used with. The manufacturer of a
limited
module must describe, both in the filing and in the installation instructions, the alternative means that
the
limited module manufacturer uses to verify that the host meets the necessary requirements to satisfy
the
module limiting conditions.
A limited module manufacturer has the flexibility to define its alternative method to address the
conditions that limit the initial approval, such as: shielding, minimum signaling amplitude, buffered
modulation/data inputs, or power supply regulation. The alternative method could include that the
limited
module manufacturer reviews detailed test data or host designs prior to giving the host manufacturer
approval.
This limited module procedure is also applicable for RF exposure evaluation when it is necessary to
demonstrate compliance in a specific host. The module manufacturer must state how control of the
product into which the modular transmitter will be installed will be maintained such that full
compliance
of the product is always ensured. For additional hosts other than the specific host originally granted
with a
limited module, a Class II permissive change is required on the module grant to register the additional
host as a specific host also approved with the module.
Explanation: The module is not a limited module
