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. Ì Caution Any changes or modifications NOT explicitly APPROVED by Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. could cause the SWL-2900U module to cease to comply with FCC rules part 15, and thus void the user's authority to operate the equipment. Ì RF-exposure statement These modular transmitters, SWL-2900U, comply with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. The SWL-2900U should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the antenna and the body of the user or nearby persons. The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module in the users manual of the end product which integrate this module. 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 2 conditions above are met, further transmitter testing 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.). 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 re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.
Ì Antenna These modular transmitters are for OEM integrations only. The end-user product will be installed in such a manner that only the authorized antennas are used. Ì Label and manual requirements for the End Product For an end product using the SWL-2900U there must be a label containing, at least, the following information: FCC ID for model SWL-2900U The label must be affixed on an exterior surface of the end product such that it will be visible upon inspection in compliance with the modular approval guidelines developed by the FCC. Where the SWL-2900U will be installed in final products larger than 8cm x 10cm following statements has to be placed ONTO the device. "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." In case where the final product will be installed in locations where the end-consumer is not able to see the FCC ID and/or this statement, the FCC ID and the statement shall also be included in the end-product manual. The users manual for end users must include the following information in a prominent location "IMPORTANT NOTE: To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the antenna used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter." This device contains FCC ID: A3LSWL-2900U
