UBX-19039908 - R07 Qualification and approvals Page 29 of 36
All transmitters regulated by ISED must comply with RF exposure requirements listed in RSS-102 -
Radio Frequency (RF) Exposure Compliance of Radiocommunication Apparatus (All Frequency
Bands). This module is approved for installation into mobile host platforms and must not be co-
located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter except in accordance with
Industry Canada's multi-transmitter guidelines. A minimum of 20cm separation distance between
any nearby person and the transmitter or antenna shall be maintained. End users must be provided
with transmitter operating conditions for satisfying RF Exposure compliance.
9.1 European Union regulatory compliance
Information about regulatory compliance of the European Union for the BMD-345 module is available
in the BMD-345 Declaration of Conformity.
9.1.1 Radio Equipment Directive (RED) 2014/53/EU
The BMD-345 module complies with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of
Radio Equipment Directive (RED) 2014/53/EU.
9.2 Australia / New Zealand (RCM)
The BMD-345 has been tested to comply with the AS/NZS 4268:2017, Radio equipment and systems
– Short range devices – Limits and methods of measurement. The report may be obtained from your
local FAE, and may be used as evidence in obtaining permission to use the Regulatory Compliance
Mark (RCM).
Information on registration as a Responsible Party, license and labeling requirements may be found
at the following websites:
Australia: http://www.acma.gov.au/theACMA/radiocommunications-short-range-devices-standard-
2004
New Zealand: http://www.rsm.govt.nz/compliance
Only Australian-based and New Zealand-based companies who are registered may be granted
permission to use the RCM. An Australian-based or New Zealand-based agent or importer may also
register as a Responsible Party to use the RCM on behalf of a company not in Australia or New

9.3 Bluetooth qualification
The Bluetooth SIG maintains the Bluetooth Specification, and ensures that products are properly
tested and comply with the Bluetooth license agreements. Companies that list products with the
Bluetooth SIG are required to be members of the SIG and submit the listed fees. Refer to this link for
details: https://www.bluetooth.com/develop-with-bluetooth/qualification-listing
The BMD-345 Bluetooth low energy module based on Nordic Semiconductor SoCs is listed as a
“Tested Component”. This allows an end product based on a u-blox module to inherit the component
listings without the need to run all of the tests again. The end product will often inherit several
different listings, known as Qualified Design IDs (QDID), and are identified on a “Declaration of
Compliance”.
The list of qualified products is found here: https://launchstudio.bluetooth.com/Listings/Search
The BMD-345 primarily utilizes the S140 SoftDevice.
