Industry Canada

User’s Guide Requirements

As outlined in the Operational Description, the SDC-PE15N complies with Industry Canada (IC) rules

for a Limited Modular Approval. To leverage Summit’s grant, the two conditions below must be met

for the host device into which the SDC-PE15N is integrated:

1. The antenna is installed with 20 cm maintained between the antenna and users.

2. The transmitter module is not co-located with any other transmitter or antenna that is capable of

simultaneous operation.

As long as the two conditions above are met, further transmitter testing is typically not required.

However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing its end-product for any additional

compliance requirements required with this module installed, such as (but not limited to) digital device

emissions and PC peripheral requirements.

IMPORTANT!

In the event that the two conditions above cannot be met (for example certain

device configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the IC

authorization is no longer considered valid and the IC ID cannot be used on the

final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-

evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate IC

authorization.

When using Summit’s IC grant for the SDC-PE15N, the integrator must include specific information in the

user’s guide for the device into which the SDC-PE15N is integrated. The integrator must not provide

information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module in the user’s manual of the

device into which the SDC-PE15N is integrated. In addition to the required FCC statements outlined

above, the following IC statements must be added in their entirety and without modification into a

prominent place in the user’s guide for the device into which the SDC-PE15N is integrated:

To prevent radio interference to the licensed service, this device is intended to be operated indoors

and away from windows to provide maximum shielding. Equipment (or its transmit antenna) that is

installed outdoors is subject to licensing.

The integrator must list out information for each antenna used with the host device into which the SDC-

PE15N is integrated. The following examples are based on antennas with which the SDC-PE15N was

certified and represent an acceptable format:

Summit SDC-CF22G Antenna
