Regulatory Compliance
FCC CERTIFICATION
Novatel Wireless certifies that the Expedite L10-G GSM Radio Module complies with the RF
requirements applicable to broadband PCS equipment operating under the authority of 47
CFR Part 24, Subpart E and Part 22 Subpart H of the FCC Rules and Regulations. This
certification is contingent upon installation, operation and use of the Expedite L10-G module
and its host product in accordance with all instructions provided to both the OEM and end
user. When installed and operated in a manner consistent with the instructions provided, the
Expedite L10-G module meets the maximum permissible exposure (MPE) limits for general
population / uncontrolled exposure as defined in Section 1.1310 of the FCC Rules and
Regulations.
The Expedite L10-G module is designed for use in a variety of host units, enabling the host
platform to perform wireless data communications. However, there are certain criteria relative
to integrating the modem into a host platform such as a PC, laptop, handheld, monitor and
control unit, etc. that must be considered to ensure continued compliance with FCC
compliance requirements.
Important Information for Canada/USA OEM Integrators
This section provides guidance for using the Expedite L10-G in host devices through the FCC
Permissive Change process. When utilizing the permissive change process, Novatel Wireless,
the grantee, is responsible for all integrations and must be consulted on all regulatory matters
involving the Expedite L10-G.
The Expedite L10- G module is granted with FCC/IC modular approval for mobile 1
applications, and may be installed as a standalone2transmitter in final products meeting the
following conditions. If the following conditions are followed, it may be used in final products
without additional FCC/IC certification. Otherwise, additional FCC/IC approvals must be
obtained.
1Mobile Device Definition – FCC defines as a transmitting antenna located at a distance ≥
20cm from the user.
2Standalone is defined as a single transmitter transmitting as opposed to 2 or more
transmitters transmitting simultaneously.
vii novatelwireless.com
The antenna connected to the Expedite L10-G module must be installed to provide at
least 20 cm separation from the human body at all times.
The Expedite L10-G module and transmitter antennas must not be co-located with any
other transmitter or antenna within a host device.
The transmitter antenna used with the Expedite L10-G module must not exceed the
following level:
Cellular maximum permitted antenna gain: 5.39dBi
PCS band maximum permitted antenna gain: 3.31dBi
To comply with the aspects of KDB996369, strict adherence to the design parameters in
Section 4.1.1.3 Antenna And RF Signal Trace must be observed. Section 4.1.1.3 provides
PCB RF trace design guidelines for the coplanar microstrip between the Expedite L10-G
RF compression pads and the U.FL style coaxial connector.
A label containing the FCC and Industry Canada IDs must be permanently affixed to the
exterior of the host device into which the Expedite L10-G module is installed. The label
may also be under a panel or battery pack if it is readily accessible and cannot be
separated from the host device itself. The label must contain a statement similar to the
following;
This device contains FCC ID: PKRNVWGSM0508
This equipment contains equipment certified under IC: 3229A-GSM0508
If any of these conditions are not met then additional information should be sought from the
FCC or an FCC qualified test laboratory.
If the Expedite L10-G module is intended for use in a portable1device, the OEM integrator is
responsible to design the product to comply with RF exposure, and must work with Novatel
Wireless (the grantee) to satisfy FCC/IC SAR requirements. Refer to FCC OET Bulletin 65
Supplement C for information about FCC RF exposure compliance requirements for mobile
and portable devices.
The system user manuals and other documentation must clearly indicate operating conditions
that must be observed to ensure compliance with FCC/IC RF exposure guidelines and also
include appropriate caution and warning statements and information.
The host device containing the Expedite L10-G module may also require compliance to FCC
Part 15 Subpart B – Unintentional Radiators.
1Portable Device Definition – FCC defines as a transmitting antenna located at a distance ≤
20cm from the user.

resulting in danger, specifically;
lAreas where prohibited by the law.
lFollow any special rules and regulations and obey all signs and notices. Always
turn off the host device when instructed to do so, or when you suspect that it may
cause interference or danger.
lWhere explosive atmospheres may be present.
lDo not operate your modem in any area where a potentially explosive atmosphere
may exist. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily
injury or even death. Be aware of and comply with all signs and instructions.
lUsers are advised not to operate the modem while they are at a refueling point or
service station.
lUsers are reminded to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel
depots (fuel storage and distribution areas), chemical plants or where blasting
operations are in progress.
lAreas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked.
lPotential locations can include gas stations, below deck on boats, chemical transfer
or storage facilities, vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or
butane), areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or
metal powders, and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Guidelines
Portable RF exposure evaluation must be completed on host devices that provide ≤20.0 cm
of separation distance between the transmitter antenna and the end user.
Portable Device Definition
The FCC defines a Portable Device as a device having a transmitting antenna located at a
distance ≤20cm from the user.
Mobile Device Definition
The FCC defines a Mobile Device as a device having a transmitting antenna located at a
distance ≥20cm from the user.
SAR Compliance
European and US certification bodies require that you test Specific Absorption Rate (SAR).
SAR is a measure of energy absorbed by organic tissue over a specific time. The factors that
affect SAR readings are:
loutput power
lfrequency of the radiation
lproximity to antenna
lantenna counterpoise
lduty cycle
Early in the physical design stage of the UE, the antenna and the mechanical engineering
design teams must collaborate on the design to ensure that they can meet the SAR
requirements. Carefully reading and understanding the FCC requirements can help designers
choose the antenna type, the antenna location, and the industrial design of the UE. The
placement and characteristics of the main antenna are the most critical factors affecting SAR
performance.

Tune Up Procedure
During manufacturing each device will be individually calibrated. Measurement is performed
in a fully calibrated environment using an CMW500 base station simulator. The measurement
procedure is outlined below:
Measurement Procedure:
1. Set the device to operational voltage and on a predefined channel in a special test
mode.
2. The actual output power is measured at several power levels.
3. The gain factors of each individual device are adjusted until the target value is met. The
appropriate gain control settings for each output power level are stored in each device
individually (for each power level). The user has no possibility to change these settings
later on.
4. The maximum gains of each individual device are adjusted and measured until the
target value is met. The production target power with tolerance compiles with the
maximum power in test report.
