Certifications
APPENDIX B
The WLAN - Computer product complies with the following standards.
FCC Part 15 Class B
Radio Frequency Interface (RFI) (FCC 15.105)
The WLAN - Computer module has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class
B digital devices pursuant to Part 15 Subpart B, of the FCC rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not
installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, 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 and 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.
Labeling Requirements (FCC 15.19)
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.
If the FCC ID is not visible when 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
WLAN‐Computer
©2011DigiInternational,Inc.. 10
module FCC ID. THis exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains
Transmitter Module FCC ID: MCQ-50M1699/ IC: 1846A-50M1699”.
RF Exposure
RF Exposure considerations require that a 20 cm separation distance between users and the
installed antenna location shall be maintained at all times when the module is energized.
OEM installers must consider suitable module and antenna installation locations in order to
assure this in 20cm separation, and end users be also be advised to the requirement.
Indoor/Outdoor
When the WLAN - Computer module is installed in devices that can be used outdoors, the
channels in the band 5150 - 5250 MHz must be disabled to comply with US and Canadian
regulatory requirements. OEM users are encouraged to inform end users of this restriction as
well.
Modifications (FCC 15.21)
Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by Digi may void the
user’s authority to operate this equipment.
Industry Canada
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions from digital
apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of
Communications.
Le present appareil numerique n’emet pas de bruits radioelectriques depassant les limites
applicables aux appareils numeriques de la class B prescrites dans le Reglement sur le
brouillage radioelectrique edicte par le ministere des Communications du Canada.
The maximum antenna gain permitted in the band 5150-5250MHz to comply with the e.i.r.p
limit is, according to RSS-210 section A9.2(2)
50mW conducted power
200mW max EIRP
The maximum antenna gain permitted in the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5470-5725 MHz to
comply with the e.i.r.p limit is, according to RSS-210 section A9.2(2)
250mW conducted power
1.0W max EIRP
This limit is met with the highest gain antenna listed, antenna factor AN1003.
WLAN‐Computer
©2011DigiInternational,Inc.. 11
The maximum antenna gain permitted in the band 5725-5825 MHz to comply with the e.i.r.p
limit specified for non point-to-point operation is, according to RSS-210 section A9.2(3):
1W conducted power
4.0W max EIRP
This limit is met with the highest gain antenna listed,antenna factor AN1003.
OEM installers and users are cautioned to take note that high-power radars are allocated as
primary users (meaning they have priority) of the bands 5250-5330 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz
and these radars could cause interference and /or damage to devices operating in these
frequency bands.
