SX-PCEAN User’s Manual v2.0 8. Notifications : : FCC ID N6C-SXPCEAN IC 4908B-SXPCEAN NOTICE Federal Communication Interference Statement (United States only) This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
SX-PCEAN User’s Manual v2.0 This equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65 and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. This equipment should be installed and operated keeping the radiator at least 20cm or more away from person’s body (excluding extremities: hands, wrists, feet and ankles).
SX-PCEAN User’s Manual v2.0 The Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) calculation for maximum power (25.39-0.39db cable loss + 11dbi = 36dbm) 2 2 is 0.792009 mW/cm . The limit is 1.0 mW/cm for a minimum separation distance of 20cm. Data transmission is always initiated by software, which is then passed down through the MAC, through the digital and analog baseband, and finally to the RF chip. Several special packets are initiated by the MAC.
SX-PCEAN User’s Manual v2.0 WARNING : The FCC / The Industry Canada regulations provide that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. Manual and Product Labeling information To The End User The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warning as show in this manual.
