FCC and Industry Canada Guidelines for Devices Containing a Transmitter Module
The following is an extract from FCC PART 15 UNLICENSED MODULAR TRANSMITTER
APPROVAL, DA 00-1407, Released: June 26, 2000, Section 6 describing labeling requirements
for devices containing a modular transmitter.
Section 6. The modular transmitter must be labeled with its own FCC ID number, and, 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. This exterior label can use wording such as the
following: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: XYZMODEL1” or “Contains FCC ID:
XYZMODEL1.” Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used. The
Grantee may either provide such a label, an example of which must be included in the
application for equipment authorization, or, must provide adequate instructions along
with the module which explain this requirement.
In the latter case, a copy of these instructions must be included in the application for
equipment authorization.
The following is an extract from RSS-GEN, General Requirements and Information for the
Certification of Radio Apparatus, Section 3.2.1, describing labeling requirements for a host
device integrating a radio module.

The host device shall be properly labelled to identify the modules within the host device.
The Industry Canada certification label of a module shall be clearly visible at all times when
installed in the host device, otherwise the host device must be labelled to display the
Industry Canada certification number of the module, preceded by the words “Contains
transmitter module”, or the word “Contains”, or similar wording expressing the same
meaning, as follows:
Contains transmitter module IC: XXXXXX-YYYYYYYYYYY
where XXXXXX-YYYYYYYYYYY is the moduleʹs certification number.
L’extrait suivant provient du Cahier des charges sur les normes radioélectriques (CNR);
exigences générales et information relatives à la certification des appareils radio, section
3.2.1, et décrit les exigences en matière d’étiquetage pour un dispositif hôte intégrant un
module radio.
Le dispositif hôte doit être correctement étiqueté afin d’identifier les modules qu’il
comprend.
L’étiquette de certification Industrie Canada d’un module doit toujours être bien visible lors
de l’installation sur un dispositif hôte. Dans le cas contraire, le dispositif hôte doit être
étiqueté de façon à afficher le numéro de certification Industrie Canada du module, précédé
de l’expression « Contains transmitter module » ou du mot « Contains », ou d’une
formulation similaire ayant la même signification. Par exemple :
Contains transmitter module IC : XXXXXX-YYYYYYYYYYY
où XXXXXX-YYYYYYYYYYY représente le numéro de certification du module.
The applicant for equipment certification of the module shall provide with each unit of the
module either a label such as described above, or an explanation and instructions to the user
as to the host device labelling requirements.

Le présent émetteur radio 5975A-NIC541 (identifier le dispositif par son numéro de
certification ou son numéro de modèle s’il fait partie du matériel de catégorie I) a été
approuvé par Industrie Canada pour fonctionner avec les types d’antenne énumérés cidessous et ayant un gain admissible maximal et l’impédance requise pour chaque type
d’antenne. Les types d’antenne non inclus dans cette liste, ou dont le gain est supérieur au
gain maximal indiqué, sont strictement interdits pour l’exploitation de l’émetteur.
• Antennes omnidirectionnelles: 6 dBi à 900 MHz, 6 dBi à 2.4 GHz
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an
antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry
Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain
should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more
than that necessary for successful communication.
Conformément à la réglementation d’Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut
fonctionner avec une antenne d’un type et d’un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour
l’émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage
radioélectrique à l’intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d’antenne et son
gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas
l’intensité nécessaire à l’établissement d’une communication satisfaisante.
Safety Information
WARNING: Severe shock and explosion hazard! Touching energized parts can result in massive
equipment damage, and severe injury or death. Short-circuiting energized parts will result in blinding
flash and explosion. Opening and closing electrical circuits can also produce dangerous and explosive
arc flashes. Involuntary muscular reactions associated with electrical shock may result in other
injuries. Observe the following safety guidelines.
Careful planning of every job is essential. Nothing should be taken for granted. Do not take
chances!
• Read and follow all approved policies and procedures provided by your employer
associated with the procedures in this manual.
• The procedures in this manual must only be performed by qualified workers in
accordance with local utility safety practices, utility requirements, and applicable OSHA
and NFPA standards.
• The information contained in this document is intended to aid qualified personnel, and is
not a replacement for the proper training required to make a person qualified.
• Silver Spring Networks assumes no liability for the customerʹs failure to follow these
safety guidelines.
General Electrical Safety
• Perform the procedures in this manual in accordance with applicable workplace
standards established by the following agencies:
— Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA).

Network Relay Point (NRP) NIC 540 Labeling Product Requirements 2 FCC and Industry Canada Government Guidelines
— The National Electrical Code published by the National Fire Protection Association
(NFPA-70).
— National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA).
— Electronics Industries Association (EIA).
— Insulated Power Cable Engineers Association (IPCEA).
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI). Whenever possible, de-energize all
circuits or equipment before working on them.
• Maintain a minimum clearance of 10 feet (3 meters) between line potential and all
unqualified persons at all times.
• Keep unauthorized people out of the work area. Be especially cautious of children, who
tend to be drawn to work activity.
• Determining if a circuit is OFF can be difficult in some instances. Check for circuit voltage
with an appropriate voltmeter before working on equipment presumed to have been deenergized. Tiebreakers, double throw disconnect switches, automatic transfer switches
and emergency generators can supply power through an alternate circuit or from another
source.
• 120V current can be just a lethal as higher voltages because current flow through a body
depends upon the bodyʹs resistance.
• Do not trust insulation and/or weatherproofing on a wire as protection from shock.
• Use electrically insulated tools. Inspect portable electrical equipment or tools for defects
and remove any defective devices from service immediately. All portable electrical
equipment must have Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection.
• Select the right tool for the job. Use tools properly. Keep tools in good working order.
• Make sure the work area is free of any flammable material. Flammable vapors can be
ignited by an arc flash.
• Keep the work area clean and dry. Cluttered work areas cause accidents and injuries.
• Provide good lighting in the work area. You cannot work safely if you cannot see what
you are doing.
• Report unsafe conditions or defective equipment to your immediate supervisor.
• Handle material carefully. Lift and carry properly.
