5.4 Compliance with FCC and IC Rules and Regulations
The Equipment Authorization Certification for the Gemalto M2M reference application de-
scribed in Section 5.3 will be registered under the following identifiers:
• ELS31-US:
FCC Identifier: QIPELS31-US
Industry Canada Certification Number: 7830A-ELS31US
Granted to Gemalto M2M GmbH
• ELS51-US:
FCC Identifier: QIPELS51-US (not yet granted)
Industry Canada Certification Number: 7830A-ELS51US (not yet granted)
Granted to Gemalto M2M GmbH
Manufacturers of mobile or fixed devices incorporating ELS31-US/ELS51-US modules are au-
thorized to use the FCC Grants and Industry Canada Certificates of the ELS31-US/ELS51-US
modules for their own final products according to the conditions referenced in these docu-
ments. In this case, an FCC/ IC label of the module shall be visible from the outside, or the host
device shall bear a second label stating "Contains FCC ID: QIPELS31-US" / "Contains FCC ID:
QIPELS51-US", and accordingly “Contains IC: 7830A-ELS31US“ / “Contains IC: 7830A-
ELS51US“. The integration is limited to fixed or mobile categorized host devices, where a sep-
aration distance between the antenna and any person of min. 20cm can be assured during nor-
mal operating conditions.
For mobile and fixed operation configurations the antenna gain, including cable loss, must not
exceed the limits in the following Table 9 for FCC and IC.
IMPORTANT:
Manufacturers of portable applications incorporating ELS31-US/ELS51-US modules are re-
quired to have their final product certified and apply for their own FCC Grant and Industry Can-
ada Certificate related to the specific portable mobile. This is mandatory to meet the SAR
requirements for portable mobiles (see Section 5.2 for detail).
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
Note: 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 and with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS
standard(s). These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful inter-
ference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio fre-
