COMPLIANCE INFORMATION
FCC NOTICE:
This device 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 device 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 device does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Connect the computer into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Increase the separation between the computer and receiver.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This module is intended for OEM integrator. The OEM integrator is still responsible for
the FCC compliance requirement of the end product which integrates this
module.
30cm minimum distance has to be able to be maintained between the antenna and
the users for the host this module is integrated into. Under such configuration, the
FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an population/uncontrolled environment
can be satisfied.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer
could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
USERS MANUAL OF THE END PRODUCT:
In the users manual of the end product, the end user has to be informed to keep
at least 30cm separation with the antenna while this end product is installed and
operated. The end user has to be informed that the FCC radio-frequency
exposure guidelines for an uncontrolled environment can be satisfied. The end
user has to also be informed that any changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the manufacturer could void the user's authority to operate this
equipment. If the size of the end product is smaller than 8x10cm, then additional
FCC part 15.19 statement is required to be available in the users manual: This
device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
LABEL OF THE END PRODUCT:
The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following
" Contains TX FCC ID: TK4-09-MMNX ". If the size of the end product is larger than
8x10cm, then the following FCC part 15.19 statement has to also
be available on the label: This device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation
is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful
interference and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
FCC15.19
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
RF exposure warning
The equipment complies with FCC RF exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment.
The equipment must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
