This allows to integrate the module in an end product without the need to obtain subsequent and separate approvals from these regulatory agencies. This is valid in the case no other intentional or un-intentional radiator components are incorporated into the product. Without these certification, an end product cannot be marketed in the relevant regions. United States - FCC  In case no other intentional or un-intentional radiator is incorporated, the BC118's FCC certification allows users to integrate the module into products without the need to obtain subsequent and separate approval.  The BC118 was approved as "intentional transmitter radio module" by the United States' Federal Communications Commission (FCC) with accordance to CFR47 Telecommunications Part 15, Subpart C, section 212. This certification is applicable in all the states in the United States.  The certification allows products to be listed in the NRTL (National Recognized Test Laboratory) as appointed by OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration). Labelling  The BC118 has been labelled with its own FCC ID number. In order to the extend the certification granted to the BC118, its FCC ID number must be displayed on the finished product in which the module is integrated. The following wording should be used "Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: SSS - BC11X " or “Contains FCC ID: SSS-BC11X”.  The user-manual for any product in which the BC118 is integrated in must include the following statements: 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. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna; Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver; Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected; Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

A Notified Body Opinion has been issued.  The BC118 has also been tested and granted approval under the directive on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment 2002/95/EC (commonly referred to as the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive or RoHS). This certification ensures the module is environmental safe and free from hazardous substances (including Lead).  Both certifications are applicable in all the 27 countries of the European Economic Area. Labelling and Documentation  Products complying with all relevant essential requirements shall bear the CE conformity marking accompanied by the identification number XXX-XXX  The RoHS certification does not dictate any specific product labelling. However, we recommend marking the product with a "RoHS Compliant" statement.  R&TTE Directive requires a manufacturer to establish technical documentation. It must be kept by the manufacturer or his authorised representative in the EU for at least 10 years after the last product has been manufactured. The documentation must cover:  a general description of the product,  conceptual design and manufacturing drawings and schemes of components, sub-assemblies, circuits and other design documentation,  descriptions and explanations necessary for the understanding of said drawings and schemes and the operation of the product,  a list of the standards referred to in Article 5, applied in full or in part, and descriptions and explanations of the solutions adopted to meet the essential requirements of the Directive where such standards  results of design calculations made, examinations carried out, etc.,  test reports.

This certification is applicable in Canada. Labelling and Documentation  The BC118 has been labelled with its own IC ID number. In order to the extend the certification granted to the BC118, its CE ID number must be displayed on the finished product in which the module is integrated. The following wording should be used "Contains Transmitter Module IC: XXX"  The user-manual for any product in which the BC118 is integrated in must include the following statements: This device complies with Industry Canada license exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement. Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication. Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l'émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à l'établissement d'une communication satisfaisante  For further labelling and IC marking requirements please review the Industry Canada website: http://www.ic.gc.ca/
