FCC Statement:
Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one of the following measures:
● Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
● Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
● Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
● Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located with any other transmitters except in accordance
with FCC multi-transmitter product procedures.
Refering to the multi-transmitter policy, multiple-transmitter(s) and module(s) can be operated
simultaneously without C2P.
This device is restricted for indoor use.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
This module is intended for OEM integrator. The OEM integrator is responsible for the compliance to all
the rules that apply to the product into which this certified RF module is integrated.
Additional testing and certification may be necessary when multiple modules are used.
20cm minimum distance has to be able to be maintained between the antenna and the users for the host
this module is integrated into. Under such configuration, the FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
population/uncontrolled environment can be satisfied.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user's authority
to operate this equipment.
USERS MANUAL OF THE END PRODUCT:
In the users manual of the end product, the end user has to be informed to keep at least 20cm separation
with the antenna while this end product is installed and operated. The end user has to be informed that the
FCC radio-frequency exposure guidelines for an uncontrolled environment can be satisfied. The end user
has to also be informed that any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer
could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. If the size of the end product is smaller than
8x10cm, then additional FCC part 15.19 statement is required to be available in the users manual: This
device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this
device may not cause harmful interference and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
LABEL OF THE END PRODUCT:
The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following " Contains TX FCC ID:
B94MRLBB1403 ". If the size of the end product is larger than 8x10cm, then the following FCC part 15.19
statement has to also be available on the label: This device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation
is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference and (2) this
device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

IC Statement
This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de
licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de
brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le
brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located with any other transmitters except in accordance
with IC multi-transmitter product procedures.
Refering to the multi-transmitter policy, multiple-transmitter(s) and module(s) can be operated
simultaneously without reassessment permissive change.
Cet appareil et son antenne (s) ne doit pas être co-localisés ou fonctionnement en association avec une
autre antenne ou transmetteur.
Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) for devices operating in the bands 5250- 5350 MHz,
5470-5600 MHz and 5650-5725 MHz
Sélection dynamique de fréquences (DFS) pour les dispositifs fonctionnant dans les bandes 5250-5350
MHz, 5470-5600 MHz et 5650-5725 MHz
The device for the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor usage to reduce potential for harmful
interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems.
les dispositifs fonctionnant dans la bande 5150-5250 MHz sont réservés uniquement pour une
utilisation à l’intérieur afin de réduire les risques de brouillage préjudiciable aux systèmes de satellites
mobiles utilisant les mêmes canaux.
The maximum antenna gain permitted (for devices in the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5470-5725 MHz) to
comply with the e.i.r.p. limit.
le gain maximal d’antenne permis pour les dispositifs utilisant les bandes 5250-5350 MHz et
5470-5725 MHz doit se conformer à la limite de p.i.r.e.
Users should also be advised that high-power radars are allocated as primary users (i.e. priority
users) of the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and that these radars could cause interference
and/or damage to LE-LAN devices
.
De plus, les utilisateurs devraient aussi être avisés que les utilisateurs de radars de haute puissance sont
désignés utilisateurs principaux (c.-à-d., qu’ils ont la priorité) pour les bandes 5250-5350 MHz et 56505850 MHz et que ces radars pourraient causer du brouillage et/ou des dommages aux dispositifs LAN-EL.
The maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the band 5725-5850 MHz shall be such that the
equipment still complies with the e.i.r.p. limits specified for point-to-point and non-point-to-point operation
as appropriate.
le gain maximal d’antenne permis (pour les dispositifs utilisant la bande 5725-5850 MHz)
doit se conformer à la limite de p.i.r.e. spécifiée pour l’exploitation point à point et non point à point, selon
le cas.
For indoor use only.
Pour une utilisation en intérieur uniquement.
