FCC Regulations:
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.

This device 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 radiated 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 the equipment and receiver.




                                                                                      Page 3


                                                                     UMC-A18QA Product
Specification



-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment.


End Product Labeling

The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following: “Contains FCC ID:
NKRA18QA”. The grantee's FCC ID can be used only when all FCC compliance requirements are
met.


RF Exposure Information
This device is intended only for ODM/OEM integrators under the following conditions:
(1) The antenna must be installed such that 20cm is maintained between the antenna and users,
(2) The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna.
(3) To comply with FCC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and human
exposure to RF radiation, the maximum antenna gain including cable loss in a mobile exposure
condition must not exceed:

Standalone Condition:

1.0 dBi in 700 MHz Band

1.5 dBi in 850 MHz Band

5.5 dBi in 1700 MHz Band

3.5 dBi in 1900 MHz Band


IMPORTANT NOTE:
This module is intended for ODM/OEM integrator. The integrator is still responsible for the
FCC compliance requirement of the end product, which integrates this module. 20cm
minimum distance has to be able to be maintained between the antenna and the users for
the host this module is integrated into. Under such configuration, the FCC radiation exposure
limits set forth for an population/uncontrolled environment can be satisfied.

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the
user's authority to operate this equipment.


                                                                                        Page 4


                                                                  UMC-A18QA Product
Specification




USERS MANUAL OF THE END PRODUCT:
In the users manual of the end product, the end user has to be informed to keep at least
20cm separation with the antenna while this end product is installed and operated. The end
user has to be informed that the FCC radio-frequency exposure guidelines for an
uncontrolled environment can be satisfied. The end user has to also be informed that any
changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user's
authority to operate this equipment. If the size of the end product is smaller than 8x10cm,
then additional FCC part 15.19 statement is required to be available in the users manual:
This device complies with Part 15 of 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.
