FCC Certication
The MOD090-LP RF module complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules and regulations. Compliance with the labeling requirements, FCC notices, and
antenna usage guidelines is required. To operate under AvaLAN Wireless FCC Certication, RF modules/integrators must comply with the following
regulations:
1. The system integrator must ensure that the text provided with this device (see FCCRequired Label Text on page 11) is placed on the
outside of the nal product and within the nal product operation manual.
2. The AW900G2LP RF module may be used only with antennas that have been tested and approved for use with this module refer to
AW900G2LP Approved Antennas on page 31.
Labeling Requirements
In order to inherit AvaLAN’s FCC Certication, compliance requires the following be stated on the device and within its operation manual:
FCC ID: R4N-AW900G2LP 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.
Label Warning WARNING The Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) must ensure that FCC labeling requirements are met. This includes a clearly
visible label on the outside of the nal product enclosure that displays the contents shown in the gure below.
Figure A.1. Required FCC Label for OEM products containing the AvaLAN MOD090-LP OEM RF Module
Contains FCC ID: R4N-AW900G2LP
The enclosed device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (i.) this device may not cause harmful interference and (ii.) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
FCC Notices
Adherence to the following is required:
IMPORTANT: The AW900G2LP OEM RF Modules has been certied by the FCC for use with other products without any further certication (as per FCC
section 2.1091). Changes or modications not expressly approved by AvaLAN could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
IMPORTANT: The RF module has been certied for remote and base radio applications. If the module will be used for portable applications, the device
must undergo SAR testing.
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: Re-orient or relocate the receiving antenna, Increase
the separation between the equipment and receiver, Connect equipment and receiver to outlets on different circuits, or Consult the dealer or an
experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Limited Modular Approval
This is an RF module approved for Limited Modular use operating as a mobile transmitting device with respect to section 2.1091 and is limited
to OEM installation for Mobile and Fixed applications only. During nal installation, end-users are prohibited from access to any programming
parameters. Professional installation adjustment is required for setting module power and antenna gain to meet EIRP compliance for high gain
antenna(s).
Final antenna installation and operating congurations of this transmitter including antenna gain and cable loss must not exceed the EIRP of the
conguration used for calculating MPE. Grantee (AvaLAN) must coordinate with OEM integrators to ensure the end-users and installers of products
operating with the module are provided with operating instructions to satisfy RF exposure requirements.
The FCC grant is valid only when the device is sold to OEM integrators. Integrators are instructed to ensure the end-user has no manual instruc-
tions to remove, adjust or install the device.
Module and Host Product Labelling Requirements
Any product for which Modular Approval (MA) or Limited Modular Approval (LMA) is being sought shall meet the above labelling requirements.
The Host Marketing Name (HMN) must be displayed (according to e-labelling requirements) or indicated at any location on the exterior of the
host product or product packaging or product literature, which shall be available with the host product or online.
The host product shall be properly labelled to identify the modules within the host product.
The Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada certication label of a module shall be clearly visible at all times when installed in
the host product; otherwise, the host product must be labelled to display the Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada certica-
tion number for the module, preceded by the word “Contains” or similar wording expressing the same meaning, as follows:
Contains IC: 5303A-AW900G2LP where: 5303A-AW900G2LP is the module’s certication number.
The applicant for a certied module shall provide with each certied module to the user, either a host label, such as described above, or an
explanation and instructions to the user as to the host product labelling requirements.
Antenna Warning
WARNING: This device has been tested with MMCX connectors with the antennas listed in AW900G2LP Approved Antennas on page 31. When integrated
into OEM products, xed antennas require installation preventing end-users from replacing them with non-approved antennas. Antennas not listed in
the AW900G2LP Approved Antennas on page 31 must be tested to comply with FCC Section 15.203 (unique antenna connectors) and Section 15.247
(emissions).
