Qualified Antenna Types

This device has been designed to operate with a standard 2.14 dBi dipole antenna. Any
antenna of a different type or with a gain higher than 2.14 dBi is strictly prohibited for use
with this device. Using an antenna of a different type or gain more than 2.14 dBi will require
additional testing for FCC, CE and IC. The required antenna impedance is 50 Ω.

Japan

BGM13S22A and BGM13S22E models are certified in Japan with certification number 209­J?????.

Since September 1, 2014 it is allowed (and highly recommended) that a manufacturer who
integrates a radio module in their host equipment can place the certification mark and
certification number (the same marking/number as depicted on the label of the radio
module) on the outside of the host equipment. The certification mark and certification
number must be placed close to the text in the Japanese language which is provided below.
This change in the Radio Law has been made in order to enable users of the combination
of host and radio module to verify if they are actually using a radio device which is approved
for use in Japan.

Certification Text to be Placed on the Outside Surface of the Host Equipment:
当該機器には電波法に基づく、技術基準適合証明等を受けた特定無線設備を装着している。
Translation of the text:

“This equipment contains specified radio equipment that has been certified to the Technical
Regulation Conformity Certification under the Radio Law.”

The "Giteki" marking shown in the figure below must be affixed to an easily noticeable
section of the specified radio equipment. Note that additional information may be required if
the device is also subject to a telecom approval.
