Use of other antenna types or the same type of antenna but with higher gain than listed above is not allowed without
additional testing and appropriate FCC approval.
Use of a similar antenna may only require a C1PC to confirm the performance for SAR is the same or better (i.e.
lower) but only an equivalent antenna can be used without any additional testing.
6 Antenna Placement inside the Host System and RF Safety
The FCC and other countries’ regulatory bodies impose strict conditions and limitations on the RF exposure levels
of end products. Acceptable RF exposure levels for this Module depend on transmit power, the location of the
transmitting antenna(s) inside the host system and the expected separation of the transmitting antennae to the end
user. OEM integrators must take great care to ensure each host system complies with the applicable RF exposure
requirements.
The antenna-to-user (bystander) separation distance must be greater than 20 cm.
Failure to adhere to these separation/spacing rules will invalidate the FCC certification for the Module.
This separation is measured between the closest point of each transmitting antenna inside the host device to
the point of contact by the user or nearby person outside the host device.
For notebooks/netbooks/laptops with antennae in display section, the LCD is opened 90
degrees/perpendicular to the keyboard. The separation distance is then measured from the nearest point of
each transmitting antennae to the bottom of the host. Use in the keyboard section of a netbook or laptop or
use in a tablet device or convertible tablet would require host-specific testing.
For notebooks/netbooks/laptops, the transmitting antenna cables shall be positioned away from the antenna
elements to conform to the configuration tested for compliance.
