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.).
IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for example certain
laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the IC authorization is no
longer considered valid and the IC No. cannot be used on the final product. In these
circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product
(including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate IC authorization.
