8 Simultaneous Transmission with Other
Integrated or Plug-In Radios
The FCC imposes conditions and limitations when additional radios are co-located in the same
host system as the QTI Module with capability to transmit simultaneously. The detailed rules
from the FCC are described in various Knowledge Database publications that may be found using
the instructions below. Co-locating other radios with the QTI module requires additional
evaluation and possibly submission for authorization from the FCC.
Because the rules are highly dependent on the characteristics of the particular radios that are co-
located and simultaneously transmitting, the OEM integrator should seek guidance from a
knowledgeable test lab or consultant to determine if additional testing and FCC certification is
required. In this case, failure to evaluate and follow the required FCC procedures will invalidate
the FCC certification of the Module and end system.
