End Product Labeling
This transmitter module is authorized only for use in device where the antenna may be
installed such that 20cm may be maintained between the antenna and users. The final end
product must be labeled in a visible area with the following: "Contains FCC ID:
PPQ-WN4516R ” and “Contains transmitter module IC: 4491A - WN4516R”
Information for the OEMs and Integrators
The following statement must be included with all versions of this document supplied to an
OEM or integrator, but should not be distributed to the end user.
1) This device is intended for OEM integrators only.
2) Please see the full Grant of Equipment document for other restrictions.
IC WARING STATEMENT
Canada, Industry Canada (IC) Notices
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003 and RSS-210.
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.
Canada, avis d'Industry Canada (IC)
Cet appareil numérique de classe B est conforme aux normes canadiennes ICES-003 et
RSS-210.
Son fonctionnement est soumis aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) cet appareil ne doit
pas causer d'interférence et (2) cet appareil doit accepter toute interférence, notamment
les interférences qui peuvent affecter son fonctionnement.
Radio Frequency (RF) Exposure Information
The radiated output power of the Wireless Device is below the Industry Canada (IC)
radio frequency exposure limits. The Wireless Device should be used in such a manner
such that the potential for human contact during normal operation is minimized.
Page 4/15

This device has also been evaluated and shown compliant with the IC RF Exposure
limits under mobile exposure conditions. (antennas are greater than 20cm from a
person's body).
Informations concernant l'exposition aux fréquences radio (RF)
La puissance de sortie émise par l’appareil de sans fil est inférieure à la limite
d'exposition aux fréquences radio d'Industry Canada (IC). Utilisez l’appareil de sans fil
de façon à minimiser les contacts humains lors du fonctionnement normal.
Ce périphérique a également été évalué et démontré conforme aux limites d'exposition
aux RF d'IC dans des conditions d'exposition à des appareils mobiles (les antennes se
situent à moins de 20 cm du corps d'une personne).
