FCCLimitedModularApprovalNotice
This device is offered as an FCC Licensed Limited Modular Transmitter (LMA). Applicable rule parts include Part 90
and Part 101C. The transmitter module is approved for use only with specific antenna, cable and output power
configurations that have been tested and approved for use when installed in devices approved by third-party OEMs,
or produced by the Grantee (GE MDS). Modifications to the radio, the antenna system, or power output, that have not
been explicitly specified by the manufacturer are not permitted, and may render the radio non-compliant with
applicable regulatory authorities. When this module is placed inside an enclosure, a durable label must be affixed to
the outside of the final host device and shall be labeled with “Contains FCC ID: E5MDS-LN700” indicating the
module’s FCC ID Numbers.
Note: A host product is required to comply with all applicable FCC equipment authorizations regulations and/or
requirements and equipment functions not associated with the transmitter module portion. For example requirements
for any co-location of additional transmitter with the module and/or at the minimum compliance with FCC part 15B &
IC ICES-003; Digital device are the sole responsibility of the OEM integrators for the final host device.
RFExposureWarnings
The antenna(s) to be used with this module must be installed with consideration to the guidelines for RF exposure
risk to all nearby personnel, and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
Concentrated energy from a directional antenna may pose a health hazard to humans. Do not allow people to come
closer to the antenna than the distances listed in the table below when the transmitter is operating.

* Values are based on 41.0 dBm at 757.0MHz, using 100% duty cycle. Note that these values include margin for
acceptable tolerance and are extremely conservative. QAM modulation peak-to-average ratio and duty cycle due to
media access control ensure that this limit is never reached in a real customer-accessible operating mode.
Calculations are as per FCC KDB 447498 D01 and Section 2.1091, with General Public Uncontrolled Exposure
Limits defined in Section 1.1310
Antennas with gain greater than 16.5 dBi have not been authorized for this device. Installation of the device into
portable applications is not authorized.
