conditions. Otherwise, additional FCC/IC approvals must be obtained.
1. At least 20 cm separation distance between the antenna and the user’s body must be
maintained at all times.
2. To comply with FCC / IC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and
human exposure to RF radiation, the maximum antenna gain including cable loss in a
mobile-only exposure condition must not exceed the limits stipulated in Table 4-1 on
page 15.
3. The MC7411 module may transmit simultaneously with other collocated radio trans-
mitters within a host device, provided the following conditions are met:

cation.
· At least 20 cm separation distance between the antennas of the collocated trans-
mitters and the user’s body must be maintained at all times.
