Crestron CWD6609  Two-Way RF Transceiver Module Two-Way RF Transceiver Module: CWD6609 Introduction  Functions and Features The CWD6609 (hereafter referred to as “module”) is a two-way radio frequency (RF) module that utilizes the 2.4 GHz frequency band to communicate with other devices. The module operates according to the IEEE 802.15.4 specification and can be configured to minimize the possibility of interference with other devices.  The module receives RF signals from one or more Crestron devices and can transmit these signals over the air or over a cable run for further processing (depending on the application).  Functional Summary  • Two-way RF transceiver − 2.4 GHz frequency band, IEEE 802.15.4 specification − Range from 3 feet to 50 ft. − Operates on one of sixteen available channels to establish optimal signal quality    The transceiver uses a 1.67 milliwatt signal that can travel up to approximately 50 feet indoors. The range is dependent on the construction of the building, obstructions, and RF interference from other devices. The location of the module and the orientation of its antenna are also important factors in determining RF performance. Operations Guide - DOC. 6838A   Two-Way RF Transceiver Module: CWD6609  •  1
Two-Way RF Transceiver Module  Crestron CWD6609 Specifications The table below is a summary of specifications for the CWD6609.  Specifications of the CWD6609 SPECIFICATION DETAILS Power Requirements  0.58 Watts (5.0VDC @ 0.115A) Operating Frequency  2400 MHz to 2483.5 MHz (802.15.4 compliant) Operating Ranges¹  Minimum Distance   Maximum Distance Indoors    (without repeater device)  3 ft 50 ft  Available Channels  16 (numbered 11 through 26 per 802.15.4)  RF Output Power  1.67 mW Dimensions  Width:   1.64 in (4.15 cm) Height:  2.35 in (5.98 cm) Depth:   0.66 in (1.68 cm) 1. The location and the orientation of the module are important factors in the RF performance. The range is dependent on its placement and the building in which it is used. The construction of the building, obstructions, and RF interference from other devices are factors determining the effective range of the unit. To prevent unit-to-unit RF interference, multiple modules operating at the same frequencies should not be installed within 3-5 feet of each other. Physical Description The module, shown below, consists of various components attached to a printed circuit board. A circuit-board mounted antenna is located at the top of the board while a 10-pin connector for the application-specific installation is located at the bottom of the board.

Two-Way RF Transceiver Module  Crestron CWD6609 Industry Compliance Labeling Requirements If the FCC ID on the CWD6609 is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: EROCWD6609” or “Contains FCC ID: EROCWD6609.” Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used.  Compliance Statement (Part 15.19 ) 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. Warning (Part 15.21 ) Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. RF Exposure (OET Bulletin 65 ) To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements for mobile transmitting devices, this transmitter should only be used or installed at locations where there is at least 20cm separation distance between the antenna and all persons. Industry Canada Statement The term "IC" before the certification/registration number only signifies that the Industry Canada technical specifications were met. IC: 5683C-CWD6609  Section 7.1.5 of RSS-GEN 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.  FCC Radiation Exposure Statement: This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions: 1. The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and users, and 2. The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna. As long as the two conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not be required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.). 4  •  Two-Way RF Transceiver Module: CWD6609  Operations Guide - DOC. 6838A
Crestron CWD6609  Two-Way RF Transceiver Module IMPORTANT NOTE:  In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID cannot be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for reevaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.
