ConnectCore® 8X System-on-Module Hardware Reference Manual --
Preliminary
108
IMPORTANT: This module has been tested and found to comply with the following
requirements for Modular Approval.
Part 15.247 - Operation within the bands 902-928 MHz, 2400-2483.5 MHz, and 5725-5850 MHz.
Part 15.407 – General technical requirements.
FCC-approved antennas
The ConnectCore 8X can be installed utilizing antennas and cables constructed with non-standard
connectors (RPSMA, RPTNC, and so on).
The modules are FCC approved for fixed base station and mobile applications for the channels
indicated in the tables below. If the antenna is mounted at least 20 cm (8 in) from nearby persons, the
application is considered a mobile application. Antennas not listed in the table must be tested to
comply with FCC Section 15.203 (Unique Antenna Connectors) and Section 15.247 (Emissions).
The following table shows the antenna that was used to certify the ConnectCore 8X wireless module.
This antenna can be replaced by others, however further certification testing is required. The number
of tests to be carried out can be decreased by using an antenna of the same type, i.e. dualband
omnidirectional dipole, showing lower peak gain. In such case, only a spot check may be required by
the certification laboratories to keep current certifications valid according to FCC regulations. If
replacing by an antenna with higher gain, complete radiated tests according to FCC regulations are
required by the certification laboratories.
