RN41-DS
3.4 Australia
The Australia radio regulations do not provide a modu-
lar approval policy similar to the United States (FCC)
and Canada (IC). However, RN-41/RN-41N module RF
transmitter test reports can be used in part to demon-
strate compliance in accordance with ACMA Radio
communications “Short Range Devices” Standard
2004 (The Short Range Devices standard calls up the
AS/NZS 4268:2008 industry standard). The RN-
41/RN-41N module test reports can be used as part of
the product certification and compliance folder. For
more information on the RF transmitter test reports,
contact Microchip Technology Australia sales office.
To meet overall Australian final product compliance, the
developer must construct a compliance folder contain-
ing all relevant compliance test reports e.g. RF, EMC,
electrical safety and DoC (Declaration of Conformity)
etc. It is the responsibility of the integrator to know what
is required in the compliance folder for ACMA compli-
ance. All test reports are available on the RN-41/RN-
41N product web page at http://www.microchip.com.
For more information on Australia compliance, refer to
the Australian Communications and Media Authority
web site http://www.acma.gov.au/.

3.5 New Zealand
The New Zealand radio regulations do not provide a
modular approval policy similar to the United States
(FCC) and Canada (IC). However, RN-41/RN-41N
module RF transmitter test reports can be used in part
to demonstrate compliance against the New Zealand
“General User Radio License for Short Range
Devices”. New Zealand Radio communications (Radio
Standards) Notice 2010 calls up the AS / NZS
4268:2008 industry standard. The RN-41/RN-41N
module test reports can be used as part of the product
certification and compliance folder. All test reports are
available on the RN-41/RN-41N product web page at
http://www.microchip.com. For more information on the
RF transmitter test reports, contact Microchip Technol-
ogy sales office.
