Compliance list INTEGRATION INSTRUCTIONS for 996369 D03 OEM the and 996369 D03 OEM by Sections 2.2 through 2.10. Requirement Yes N/A Comment 2.2 List of applicable FCC rules YES Refer to instruction List the FCC rules that are applicable to the modular transmitter. These are the rules that FCC part 15C 15.249 specifically establish the bands of operation, the power, spurious emissions, and operating fundamental frequencies. DO NOT list compliance to unintentional-radiator rules (Part 15 Subpart B) since that is not a condition of a module grant that is extended to a host manufacturer. See also Section 2.10 below concerning the need to notify host manufacturers that further testing is required.3 2.3 Summarize the specific operational use YES Refer to instruction conditions Describe use conditions that are applicable to Antenna ： the modular transmitter, including for Integral Solder 1/4 Wave Antenna example any limits on antennas, etc. For Antenna gain :1.3dBi example, if point-to-point antennas are used that require reduction in power or compensation for cable loss, then this information must be in the instructions. If the use condition limitations extend to professional users, then instructions must state that this information also extends to the host manufacturer’s instruction manual. In addition, certain information may also be needed, such as peak gain per frequency band and minimum gain, specifically for master devices in 5 GHz DFS bands. 2.4 Limited module procedures N/A Not applicable If a modular transmitter is approved as a “limited module,” then the module manufacturer is responsible for approving the host environment that the limited module is used with. The manufacturer of a limited module must describe, both in the filing and in the installation instructions, the alternative means that the limited module manufacturer uses to verify that the host meets the necessary requirements to satisfy the module limiting conditions. A limited module manufacturer has the flexibility to define its alternative method to address the conditions that limit the initial approval, such as: shielding, minimum

signaling amplitude, buffered modulation/data inputs, or power supply regulation. The alternative method could include that the limited module manufacturer reviews detailed test data or host designs prior to giving the host manufacturer approval. This limited module procedure is also applicable for RF exposure evaluation when it is necessary to demonstrate compliance in a specific host. The module manufacturer must state how control of the product into which the modular transmitter will be installed will be maintained such that full compliance of the product is always ensured. For additional hosts other than the specific host originally granted with a limited module, a Class II permissive change is required on the module grant to register the additional host as a specific host also approved with the module. 2.5 Trace antenna designs N/A Not applicable For a modular transmitter with trace antenna designs, see the guidance in Question 11 of KDB Publication 996369 D02 FAQ – Modules for Micro-Strip Antennas and traces. The integration information shall include for the TCB review the integration instructions for the following aspects: layout of trace design, parts list (BOM), antenna, connectors, and isolation requirements.4 a) Information that includes permitted variances (e.g., trace boundary limits, thickness, length, width, shape(s), dielectric constant, and impedance as applicable for each type of antenna); b) Each design shall be considered a different type (e.g., antenna length in multiple(s) of frequency, the wavelength, and antenna shape (traces in phase) can affect antenna gain and must be considered); c) The parameters shall be provided in a manner permitting host manufacturers to design the printed circuit (PC) board layout; d) Appropriate parts by manufacturer and specifications; e) Test procedures for design verification; and

f) Production test procedures for ensuring compliance. The module grantee shall provide a notice that any deviation(s) from the defined parameters of the antenna trace, as described by the instructions, require that the host product manufacturer must notify the module grantee that they wish to change the antenna trace design. In this case, a Class II permissive change application is required to be filed by the grantee, or the host manufacturer can take responsibility through the change in FCC ID (new application) procedure followed by a Class II permissive change application. 2.6 RF exposure considerations YES Refer to instruction It is essential for module grantees to clearly and explicitly state the RF exposure conditions This modular complies with FCC RF that permit a host product manufacturer to radiation exposure limits set forth use the module. Two types of instructions are for an uncontrolled environment. required for RF exposure information: (1) to This transmitter must not be co- the host product manufacturer, to define the located or operating in conjunction application conditions (mobile, portable – xx with any other antenna or cm from a person’s body); and (2) additional transmitter. text needed for the host product manufacturer to provide to end users in their end-product manuals. If RF exposure statements and use conditions are not provided, then the host product manufacturer is required to take responsibility of the module through a change in FCC ID (new application). 2.7 Antennas YES Refer to instruction A list of antennas included in the application for certification must be provided in the instructions. For modular transmitters Antenna ： approved as limited modules, all applicable Integral Solder 1/4 Wave Antenna professional installer instructions must be Antenna gain :1.3dBi included as part of the information to the host product manufacturer. The antenna list shall also identify the antenna types (monopole, PIFA, dipole, etc. (note that for example an “omni-directional antenna” is not considered to be a specific “antenna type”)). For situations where the host product manufacturer is responsible for an external connector, for example with an RF pin and antenna trace design, the integration

instructions shall inform the installer that unique antenna connector must be used on the Part 15 authorized transmitters used in the host product. The module manufacturers shall provide a list of acceptable unique connectors. 2.8 Label and compliance information YES Refer to instruction Grantees are responsible for the continued If the FCC identification number is compliance of their modules to the FCC rules. not visible when the module is This includes advising host product installed inside another device, then manufacturers that they need to provide a the outside of the device into which physical or e-label stating “Contains FCC ID” the module is installed must also with their finished product. See Guidelines for display a label referring to the Labeling and User Information for RF Devices – enclosed module. This exterior label KDB Publication 784748. can use wording such as the following: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: BRWWACO1T Or Contains FCC ID: BRWWACO1T” 2.9 Information on test modes and additional YES testing requirements5 Refer to instruction Additional guidance for testing host products is Any company of the host device given in KDB Publication 996369 D04 Module which install this modular with limit Integration Guide. Test modes should take into modular approval should perform consideration different operational conditions the test of radiated & conducted for a stand-alone modular transmitter in a host, emission and spurious emission,etc. as well as for multiple simultaneously according to FCC part 15C : 15.249 transmitting modules or other transmitters in a and 15.209 &15.207 ,15B Class B host product. requirement, Only if the test result The grantee should provide information on comply with FCC part 15C : 15.249 how to configure test modes for host product evaluation for different operational conditions and 15.209 &15.207 ,15B Class B for a stand-alone modular transmitter in a host, requirement，then the host can be versus with multiple, simultaneously sold legally. transmitting modules or other transmitters in a host. Grantees can increase the utility of their modular transmitters by providing special means, modes, or instructions that simulates or characterizes a connection by enabling a transmitter. This can greatly simplify a host manufacturer’s determination that a module as installed in a host complies with FCC requirements. 2.10 Additional testing, Part 15 Subpart B YES Refer to instruction disclaimer Any company of the host device The grantee should include a statement that which install this modular with limit the modular transmitter is only FCC modular approval should perform authorized for the specific rule parts (i.e., FCC the test of radiated & conducted

transmitter rules) listed on the grant, and that emission and spurious emission,etc. the host product manufacturer is responsible according to FCC part 15C : 15.249 for compliance to any other FCC rules that and 15.209 &15.207 ,15B Class B apply to the host not covered by the modular requirement, Only if the test result transmitter grant of certification. If the comply with FCC part 15C : 15.249 grantee markets their product as being Part 15 and 15.209 &15.207 ,15B Class B Subpart B compliant (when it also contains requirement，then the host can be unintentional-radiator digital circuity), then sold legally. the grantee shall provide a notice stating that the final host product still requires Part 15 When the module is installed inside Subpart B compliance testing with the another device, the user manual of modular transmitter installed.6 the host must contain below warning statements; Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, 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 to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: —Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. —Increase the separation between
