FCC Modular Approval Request Date: July 21, 2014 Federal Communications Commission Authorization and Evaluation Division 7435 Oakland Mills Road Columbia, MD 21046 Attn: OET Dept. Product/ Model Number: We, Fluke Networks, 6920 Seaway Blvd, Everett, WA 98203 Request modular approval for the certification of our equipment within this application, identified by FCC ID: WA7-43460AC The table below contains the justification for modular approval of this equipment: Requirement per 15.212 and KDB 996369 D01 Module Certification Guide v01r04 Explanation from grantee (do not write yes / no, but explain why it complies / how it is achieved) 1. The modular transmitter must have its own RF shielding. The module has its own RF shielding. 2. The modular transmitter must have buffered modulation/data inputs (if such inputs The modular has buffered data inputs, it is are provided) to ensure that the module will comply with Part 15 requirements under integrated in chip BCM43460. conditions of excessive data rates or over-modulation. 3. The modular transmitter must have its own power supply regulation. Yes, the modular transmitter chipset has internal PMU (Power Management Unit) which generates power supplies required by the internal circuitry from the battery or support device. 4. The modular transmitter must comply with the antenna requirements of Section The module meets the FCC antenna 15.203 and 15.204(c). The antenna must either be permanently attached or employ a requirements, It has a unique connector. “unique” antenna coupler (at all connections between the module and the antenna, including the cable).. 5. The modular transmitter must be tested in a stand-alone configuration, i.e., the The module was tested in a stand-alone module must not be inside another device during testing. This is intended to configuration via development card. demonstrate that the module is capable of complying with Part 15 emission limits regardless of the device into which it is eventually installed. 6. The modular transmitter must be labeled with its own FCC ID number, and, if the The label position of FCC ID is clearly FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the indicated. Please see the label location. outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains Transmitter Module 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.

7. The modular transmitter must comply with any specific rule or operating The module is compliant with all applicable requirements applicable to the transmitter and the manufacturer must provide FCC rules. Detail instructions are given in the adequate instructions along with the module to explain any such requirements. A copy Users Manual. of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization. For example, there are very strict operational and timing requirements that must be met before a transmitter is authorized for operation under Section 15.231. For instance, data transmission is prohibited, except for operation under Section 15.231(e), in which case there are separate field strength level and timing requirements. Compliance with these requirements must be assured. 8. The modular transmitter must comply with any applicable RF exposure The module complies with the mobile and requirements. For example, FCC Rules in Sections 2.1091, 2.1093 and specific fixed 20cm separation distance location Sections of Part 15, including 15.319(i), 15.407(f), 15.253(f) and 15.255(g), require that requirements. Unlicensed PCS, UNII and millimeter wave devices perform routine environmental evaluation for RF Exposure to demonstrate compliance. In addition, spread spectrum transmitters operating under Section 15.247 are required to address RF Exposure compliance in accordance with Section 15.247(b)(4). Modular transmitters approved under other Sections of Part 15, when necessary, may also need to address certain RF Exposure concerns, typically by providing specific installation and operating instructions for users, installers and other interested parties to ensure compliance.
