Applicant/Grantee Bose Corporation FCC ID: A94420128RM Section 15.212 Modular Transmitters Request for Modular Approval Request for Limited Modular Approval Requirements EUT Conditions Comply (Y/N) Single Modular Approval Requirements 1 The radio elements of the modular The module contains its own shield. Y transmitter must have their own The reference crystal is contained within shielding. The physical crystal and the module. tuning capacitors may be located external to the shielded radio elements. 2 The modular transmitter must have The modular transmitter has buffered Y buffered modulation/data inputs (if such modulation/data inputs to ensure that the inputs are provided) to ensure that the module will comply with part 15 module will comply with Part 15 requirements under conditions of requirements under conditions of excessive data rates or over-modulation. excessive data rates or over-modulation. 3 The modular transmitter must have its The module contains its own voltage Y own power supply regulation. regulation. 4 The modular transmitter must comply The module printed circuit board Y with the antenna and transmission contains permanent, integrated etched system requirements of Sections 15.203, copper antennas. Unique RF connectors 15.204(b) and 15.204(c). The antenna are populated for test purposes only. No must either be permanently attached or user antenna connectors are used in the employ a “unique” antenna coupler (at end product. all connections between the module and the antenna, including the cable). The “professional installation” provision of Section 15.203 is not applicable to modules but can apply to limited modular approvals under paragraph (b) of this section. 5 The modular transmitter must be tested The modular transmitter has been tested Y in a stand-alone configuration, i.e., the in a stand-alone configuration, i.e., the module must not be inside another module was located outside the intended device during testing for compliance host device during testing for with Part 15 requirements. Unless the compliance with part 15 requirements. transmitter module will be battery powered, it must comply with the AC The module is connected using actual line conducted requirements found in use flat flex cables 8 inches in length. Section 15.207. AC or DC power lines and data input/output lines connected to The transmitter module (when powered the module must not contain ferrites, by a commercially available wall unless they will be marketed with the supply) complies with the AC line module (see Section 15.27(a)). The conducted requirements found in Sec. length of these lines shall be the length 15.207. typical of actual use or, if that length is unknown, at least 10 centimeters to insure that there is no coupling between the case of the module and supporting

equipment. Any accessories, peripherals, or support equipment connected to the module during testing shall be unmodified and commercially available (see Section 15.31(i)). 6 The modular transmitter must be The shield of the module is labeled Y equipped with either a permanently displaying its FCC and Industry Canada affixed label or must be capable of identification numbers. The label may electronically displaying its FCC be replaced at a future date with identification number. identical artwork laser etched into the (A) If using a permanently affixed label, the shield. modular transmitter must be labeled with its own FCC identification number, and, if the FCC identification number is not visible when the The outside of the device into which the module is installed inside another device, then module is installed will also display a the outside of the device into which the module is label referring to the enclosed module installed must also display a label referring to with the wording “Contains Transmitter the enclosed module. This exterior label can use Module FCC ID: A94420128RM'' or wording such as the following: “Contains Transmitter Module similar. FCC ID: XYZMODEL1” or “Contains FCC ID: XYZMODEL1.” Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used. The Grantee may either provide such a label, an example of which must be included in the application for equipment authorization, or, must provide adequate instructions along with the module which explain this requirement. In the latter case, a copy of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization. (B) If the modular transmitter uses an electronic display of the FCC identification number, the information must be readily accessible and visible on the modular transmitter or on the device in which it is installed. If the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains FCC certified transmitter module(s).” Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used. The user manual must include instructions on how to access the electronic display. A copy of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization. 7 The modular transmitter must comply The outside of the device into which the Y with any specific rules or operating module is installed will also display a requirements that label referring to the enclosed module ordinarily apply to a complete with the wording “Contains Transmitter transmitter and the manufacturer must Module FCC ID: A94420128RM'' or provide adequate instructions along with similar. the module to explain any such requirements. A copy of these instructions must be included in the

application for equipment authorization. 8 The modular transmitter must comply The modular transmitter complies with Y with any applicable RF exposure any applicable RF exposure requirements in its final configuration. requirements in its final configuration. A limited modular approval may be granted for single or split modular transmitters that do not comply with all of the above requirements, e.g., shielding, minimum signaling amplitude, buffered modulation/data inputs, or power supply regulation, if the manufacturer can demonstrate by alternative means in the application for equipment authorization that the modular transmitter meets all the applicable Part 15 requirements under the operating conditions in which the transmitter will be used. Limited modular approval also may be granted in those instances where compliance with RF exposure rules is demonstrated only for particular product configurations. The applicant for certification must state how control of the end product into which the module will be installed will be maintained such that full compliance of the end product is always ensured.
