This will provide better radio performance at the expense of a lower effective over-the-air bit rate. 8B/10B line coding is a method that encodes a symbol of 8 bits in to a 10 bit symbol and ensures that on average there is an even number over 1’s and 0’s and a minimum number of transitions. The effective bit rate becomes 8/10s of the radio bit rate so it will be 800kbps rather than 1Mbps. 4 Regulatory Specifications FCC Part 15 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.

The following information is provided to help guide the OEM integrator to implement the 5792 SHoW DMX Neo Radio Module in host designs in a way that meets FCC requirements. The following instructions include marking and labeling information, acceptable antenna requirements, information that must be included in the OEM Integrator’s product user’s manual, and other instructions. Regulatory Module Integration Instructions This module has been granted modular approval for mobile applications. OEM integrators for host products may use the module in their final products without additional FCC / IC (Industry Canada) certification if they meet the following conditions. Otherwise, additional FCC / IC approvals must be obtained. • The host product with the module installed must be evaluated for simultaneous transmission requirements. • The users manual for the host product must clearly indicate the operating requirements and conditions that must be observed to ensure compliance with current FCC / IC RF exposure guidelines. • To comply with FCC / IC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and human exposure to RF radiation, the maximum antenna gain including cable loss in a mobile-only exposure condition must not exceed the limits as described in the following section on approved antennas: 5792 Approved Antennas 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 permitted for successful communication. This device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below. The model: 5792 can be configured with any one of the approved antennas listed below for fixed, point-to point one server and one client configuration. When the model: 5792 is configured for point-to-multipoint one server and multiple clients’ configuration (client’s talk to server only one at a time), client’s can use any of the approved antennas listed below and the server can use any of the approved antennas listed below with the exception of the 14dBi antenna.

If the final host / module combination is intended for use as a portable device (see classifications below) the host manufacturer is responsible for separate approvals for the SAR requirements from FCC Part 2.1093 and RSS-102. Device Classifications Since host devices vary widely with design features and configurations module integrators shall follow the guidelines below regarding device classification and simultaneous transmission, and seek guidance from their preferred regulatory test lab to determine how regulatory guidelines will impact the device compliance. Proactive management of the regulatory process will minimize unexpected schedule delays and costs due to unplanned testing activities. The module integrator must determine the minimum distance required between their host device and the user’s body. The FCC provides device classification definitions to assist in making the correct determination. Note that these classifications are guidelines only; strict adherence to a device classification may not satisfy the regulatory requirement as near-body device design details may vary widely. Your preferred test lab will be able to assist in determining the appropriate device category for your host product and if a KDB or PBA must be submitted to the FCC. Note, the module you are using has been granted modular approval for mobile applications. Portable applications may require further RF exposure (SAR) evaluations. It is also likely that the host / module combination will need to undergo testing for FCC Part 15 regardless of the device classification. Your preferred test lab will be able to assist in determining the exact tests which are required on the host / module combination. 10 FCC Definitions Portable: (§2.1093) — A portable device is defined as a transmitting device designed to be used so that the radiating structure(s) of the device is / are within 20 centimeters of the body of the user. Mobile: (§2.1091) (b) — A mobile device is defined as a transmitting device designed to be used in other than fixed locations and to generally be used in such a way that a separation distance of at least 20 centimeters is normally maintained between the transmitter’s radiating structure(s) and the body of the user or nearby persons. Per §2.1091d(d)(4) In some cases (for example, modular or desktop transmitters), the potential conditions of use of a device may not allow easy classification of that device as either Mobile or Portable. In these cases, applicants are responsible for determining minimum distances for compliance for the intended use and installation of the device based on evaluation of either specific absorption rate (SAR), field strength, or power density, whichever is most appropriate. Simultaneous Transmission Evaluation This module has not been evaluated or approved for simultaneous transmission as it is impossible to determine the exact multi-transmission scenario that a host manufacturer may choose. Any simultaneous transmission condition established through module integration into a host product must be evaluated per the requirements in KDB447498D01(8) and KDB616217D01,D03 (for laptop, notebook, netbook, and tablet applications). These requirements include, but are not limited to: • Transmitters and modules certified for mobile or portable exposure conditions can be incorporated in mobile host devices without further testing or certification when: • The closest separation among all simultaneous transmitting antennas is >20 cm, Or • Antenna separation distance and MPE compliance requirements for ALL simultaneous transmitting antennas have been specified in the application filing of at least one of the certified transmitters within the host device. In addition, when transmitters certified for portable use are incorporated in a mobile host device, the antenna(s) must be >5 cm from all other simultaneous transmitting antennas. • All antennas in the final product must be at least 20 cm from users and nearby persons. 11 OEM Instruction Manual Content Consistent with §2.909(a), the following text must be included within the user’s manual or operator instruction guide for the final commercial product (OEM-specific content is displayed in italics.)
