Integrator’s Task ___________________________________________ Boomer-III User Manual & Integrator’s Guide

All certification tests must be made by a qualified laboratory to ensure

that the equipment complies with the applicable technical standards.

United States of America

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requires application

for certification of digital devices in accordance with CFR Title 47,

Part 2 and Part 15. A Wavenet Boomer-III OEM Modem Module is

part of a complete system and certain testing is necessary for the

integrated product.

FCC Part 15, Class A or B certification (dependant upon final

integrated product type) must be performed with the maximum

configuration use and include all peripherals of the integrated product.

The application for certification must refer to the approval data on file

for the particular Boomer-III Modem Module, as shown in the

following example. Include the following language in the

documentation inserting the name of the integrated product in place of

xxx below:

“The Wavenet Boomer-III OEM modem module is a

subassembly of xxx and has FCC Identifier PQS-BM3900M”

FCC Part 2 certification requires all integrated products to have

routine environmental evaluation for radio-frequency (RF) exposure

prior to equipment authorization or use in accordance with FCC rules

2.1091 and 2.1093 and FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio

Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, OET Bulletin 65 and its

Supplement C.

For “portable devices”, defined in accordance with FCC rules as

transmitting devices designed to be used within 20 cm of the user body

under normal operating conditions, Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)

testing must be performed and the unit re-submitted for separate FCC

certification approval. An exposure limit of 1.6 W/kg will apply to

most OEM integrated applications.

For “mobile or fixed devices”, defined as transmitting devices

designed to be generally used such that a separation distance of at least

20 cm is maintained between the body of the user and the transmitting

radiated structure, Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits may

be used with field strength or power density limit of 0.597 mW/cm2 (at

896 MHz).

Wavenet submitted module specific information and test reports for

generic MPE compliance. If the Boomer-III OEM Modem Module is

used in a mobile or fixed application with an antenna system gain less

than 5dBi, the MPE limits will not be exceeded. In this case, the

following clause should be included in the installation and user

documentation:

"To satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements a separation

distance of 20 cm or more should be maintained between the

antenna of this device and persons during device operation. To
