5.1 FCC Statement
Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
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 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.
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.
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.
For product available in the USA/Canada market, only channel 1~11 can be operated.
Selection of other channels is not possible.
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located with any other transmitters except in
accordance with FCC multi-transmitter product procedures.
Refering to the multi-transmitter policy, multiple-transmitter(s) and module(s) can be operated
simultaneously without C2P.
This device is restricted for indoor use.

5600 - 5650 MHz band.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This module is intended for OEM integrator. The OEM integrator is responsible for the
compliance to all the rules that apply to the product into which this certified RF module is
integrated.
Additional testing and certification may be necessary when multiple modules are used.
20cm 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
20cm 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: N89-NU361 ". If the size of the end product is larger than 8x10cm, then the
