FCC Statement
1. 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. (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
2. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
Note: 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 or more 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.
The device has been evaluated to meet general RF exposure requirements. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 cm between the radiator and your body.
The Module is designed to comply with the FCC statement. FCC ID is A3LWXT5FM2101. The host system using the Module should have a label indicating it contains the modular's FCC ID. This radio module must not be installed to co-locate and operating simultaneously with other radios in host system; additional testing and equipment authorization may be required to operating simultaneously with other radio. The Module and its antenna must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other transmitter or antenna within a host device.
The modular must be installed in the host that is assigned by Company name: Samsung Electronics Co Ltd, Model no.: WXT5FM2101. If other host types used would need further evaluation and possible C2PC if they are not significantly similar to the one tested. The WIFI Module is designed for a compact PCB design. It should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 centimeters between the radiator and your body. To comply with FCC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and human exposure to RF radiation, the maximum antenna gain including cable loss in a mobile-only exposure condition must not exceed 3.90 dBi in the BT/BLE band, 3.64 dBi in the 2.4G WIFI band and 3.67 dBi in the 5G WIFI band.
