Detachable Antenna Guidelines This M2M Router device, ER2000T-NA-CAT1, integrates an LTE (4G) and WiFi radio function. Is uses an external antenna (dipole antenna) and a standard antenna connector (SMA type) which is not covered under FCC 15.203 requirements. Therefore, this equipment needs to be installed by a professional technician since the M2M application usually resides inside other equipment where the end-user cannot change the external antennas easily. There is no doubt that the antennas can be replaced by the end-user once installed in the final configuration. 7.2. Antenna Installation Guidelines When installing the antenna to the EMU Router product line there are a number of items to consider so good antenna performance can be maintained. Install the antenna in a place covered by the LTE signal. Antenna must not be installed inside a metal case. Antenna shall also be installed according to the Antenna manufacturer instructions. Antenna integration should optimize the Radiation Efficiency. Efficiency values >50% are recommended on all frequency bands for any antennas selected. Antenna integration should not dramatically perturb the radiation pattern. It is preferable to get, after antenna installation, an omnidirectional radiation pattern for the best overall coverage. Antenna Gain must not exceed values indicated in the regulatory requirements in order to meet related EIRP limitations. o Typical antenna Gain in most M2M applications should not exceed 2dBi. At least 20cm of separation distance between the antennas, the collocated router transmitters, and the human body must be maintained always. 7.3. Recommended Antennas Connected IO Inc., CONFIDENTIAL 20 Revision: 0.6 EMU Router User Manual: ER2000T-XX-CAT1 To aid in selecting an antenna for this router device the following antennas are recommended as functional and meeting the requirements for most M2M applications.

FCC General Warning 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 and correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver. Connected IO Inc., CONFIDENTIAL 22 Revision: 0.6 EMU Router User Manual: ER2000T-XX-CAT1 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. CAUTION:
Any changes or modification no expressly approved by the grantee of the device could void the users authority to operate the equipment. RF exposure warning This equipment must be installed and operated in accordance with provided instructions and the antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. End-users and installers must be provided with antenna installation instructions and transmitter operating conditions for satisfying RF exposure compliance. Detachable Antenna:
