OEM Responsibilities to comply with FCC Regulations
This module has been tested for compliance to FCC Part 15.
OEM integrators are responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements needed with this module in-
stalled (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.). Additionally, investigative measurements and spot
checking are strongly recommended to verify that the full system compliance is maintained when the module is integrated, in accord-
ance to the "Host Product Testing Guidance" in FCC's KDB 996369 D04 Module Integration Guide V01.
• General Considerations
This transmitter module is tested as a subsystem and its certification does not cover the FCC Part 15 Subpart B (unintentional radia-
tor) rule requirement. However, such requirement is typically applicable to the final host. Thus, the final host will still need to be re-
assessed for compliance to this portion of rule requirements, if applicable.
• Manual Information to the End User
The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end-user regarding how to install or remove this RF module in
the user’s manual of the end product which integrates this module.
The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warnings as shown in this manual.
• OEM/Host Manufacturer Responsibilities
OEM / Host manufacturers are ultimately responsible for the compliance of the Host and Module. The final product must be reas-
sessed against all the essential requirements of the FCC rule such as FCC Part 15 Subpart B before it can be placed on the US
market. This includes reassessing the transmitter module for compliance with the Radio and EMF essential requirements of the FCC
rules. This module must not be incorporated into any other device or system without retesting for compliance as multi-radio and
combined equipment.
Separation
• To meet the SAR exemption for portable conditions, the minimum separation distance indicated in Table 11.1 Minimum Separation
Distances for SAR Evaluation Exemption on page 43 must be maintained between the human body and the radiator (antenna) at
all times.
• This transmitter module is tested in a standalone mobile RF exposure condition, and in case of any co-located radio transmitter be-
ing allowed to transmit simultaneously, or in case of portable use at closer distances from the human body than those allowing the
exceptions rules to be applied, a separate additional SAR evaluation will be required, ultimately leading to a Class II Permissive
Change, or more rarely to a new grant.
• Important Note: In the event that these conditions cannot be met, then for the FCC authorization to remain valid the final product
will have to undergo additional testing to evaluate the RF exposure, and a permissive change will have to be applied. The evaluation
(SAR) is in the responsibility of the end-product’s manufacturer, as well as the permissive change that can be carried out with the
help of the customer's own Telecommunication Certification Body typically acting as the grant holder’s agent.
End Product Labeling
MGM220P modules are labeled with their own FCC ID. If the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device,
then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. In that case,
the final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following:
"Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: QOQ-GM220P"
Or
"Contains FCC ID: QOQ-GM220P"
The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module or
change RF related parameters in the user manual of the end product.
As long as all conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not be required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for
testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed.
