2.6 RF exposure considerations
It is essential for module grantees to clearly and explicitly state the RF exposure
conditions that permit a host product manufacturer to use the module. Two types of
instructions are required for RF exposure information: (1) to the host 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).
Explanation: ,This module complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth
for an uncontrolled environment, This equipment should be installed and operated
with a minimum distance of 20 centimeters between the radiator and your body." This
module is designed to comply with the FCC statement,
FCC ID is: 2A3PA-ROCK4C.
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.
Explanation: The EUT only have one FPC antenna, Yes, the module contains a
permanently attached antenna, The antenna gain is 2dBi.
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.
Explanation:The host system using this module, should have label in a visible area indicated
the following texts: "Contains FCC ID: 2A3PA-ROCK4C
2.9 Information on test modes and additional testing requirements5
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
