Declaration of Conformity
product manufacturer, to define the application conditions
(mobile, portable – xx cm from a person’s body); and (2)
additional text needed for the host product manufacturer to
provide to end users in their end-product manuals. If RF
exposure statements and use conditions are not provided,
then the host product manufacturer is required to take
responsibility of the module through a change in FCC ID
(new application).
2.7
Antennas
A list of antennas included in the application for certification
must be provided in the instructions. For modular
transmitters approved as limited modules, all applicable
professional installer instructions must be included as part of
the information to the host product manufacturer. The
antenna list shall also identify the antenna types (monopole,
PIFA, dipole, etc. (note that for example an “omni-directional
antenna” is not considered to be a specific “antenna type”)).
For situations where the host product manufacturer is
responsible for an external connector, for example with an
RF pin and antenna trace design, the integration instructions
shall inform the installer that unique antenna connector must
be used on the Part 15 authorized transmitters used in the
host product. The module manufacturers shall provide a list
of acceptable unique connectors.
The module does not have
an antenna, the following is
the antenna used for
evaluation and testing
FPC Antenna Type, with
the maximum 2dBi
indicated.
2.8
Label and compliance information
Grantees are responsible for the continued compliance of
their modules to the FCC rules. This includes advising host
product manufacturers that they need to provide a physical
or e-label stating “Contains FCC ID” with their finished
product. See Guidelines for Labeling and User Information
for RF Devices – KDB Publication 784748.
This module is integrated in
the host and needs to be
marked with "Contains FCC
ID:2AATL-K255B-SR" in
host's label
2.9
Information on test modes and additional testing
requirements
Additional guidance for testing host products is given in KDB
Publication 996369 D04 Module Integration Guide. Test
modes should take into consideration different operational
conditions for a stand-alone modular transmitter in a host,
as well as for multiple simultaneously transmitting modules
or other transmitters in a host product.
The grantee should provide information on how to configure
test modes for host product evaluation for different
operational conditions for a stand-alone modular transmitter
in a host, versus with multiple, simultaneously transmitting
modules or other transmitters in a host.
Grantees can increase the utility of their modular
transmitters by providing special means, modes, or
instructions that simulates or characterizes a connection by
enabling a transmitter. This can greatly simplify a host
manufacturer’s determination that a module as installed in a
host complies with FCC requirements.
The module should be
installed on a specific type
of mainframe to ensure that
the mainframe can work at
least 20cm away from the
human body. If it is installed
on the mainframe and the
mainframe works less than
20cm away from the human
body, an additional class II
permissive change is
required.
2.10
Additional testing, Part 15 Subpart B disclaimer
The grantee should include a statement that the modular
transmitter is only FCC authorized for the specific rule parts
(i.e., FCC transmitter rules) listed on the grant, and that the
host product manufacturer is responsible for compliance to
any other FCC rules that apply to the host not covered by
the modular transmitter grant of certification. If the grantee
markets their product as being Part 15 Subpart B compliant
(when it also contains unintentional-radiator digital circuity),
then the grantee shall provide a notice stating that the final
host product still requires Part 15 Subpart B compliance
testing with the modular transmitter installed.
The host manufacturer
needs an additional Part 15
Subpart B compliance test .
installed and operated with
minimum distance 20 cm
between the radiator and
your body.
