Use RF plug connectors that are compatible with the following RF receptacle connectors: Foxconn (KK12011-02-7H), Longwell (911-002-0006R), Speedtech (C87P101-00001-H), Murata (MM4829-2702RA4 (HSC)), IPEX

(20449-001E (MHF4)).

Match coaxial connections between the module and the antenna to 50 .

Minimize RF cable losses to the antenna; the recommended maximum cable

loss for antenna cabling is 0.5 dB. To ensure best thermal performance, use the mounting hole (if possible) to attach (ground) the device to a metal chassis. Note: If the antenna connection is shorted or open, the modem will not sustain permanent damage. Shielding The module is fully shielded to protect against EMI and must not be removed. Rev Apr.18 9 Product Technical Specification Antenna and Cabling When selecting the antenna and cable, it is critical to RF performance to match antenna gain and cable loss. Choosing the Correct Antenna and Cabling When matching antennas and cabling:

The antenna (and associated circuitry) should have a nominal impedance of 50 with a return loss of better than 10 dB across each frequency band of operation. The system gain value affects both radiated power and regulatory (FCC, IC, CE, etc.) test results.

Designing Custom Antennas Consider the following points when designing custom antennas:

A skilled RF engineer should do the development to ensure that the RF performance is maintained. If both UMTS and CDMA modules will be installed in the same platform, you may want to develop separate antennas for maximum performance. Determining the Antennas Location When deciding where to put the antennas:

Antenna location may affect RF performance. Although the module is shielded to prevent interference in most applications, the placement of the antenna is still very importantif the host device is insufficiently shielded, high levels of broadband or spurious noise can degrade the modules perfor-

mance. Connecting cables between the module and the antenna must have 50 impedance. If the impedance of the module is mismatched, RF performance is reduced significantly. Antenna cables should be routed, if possible, away from noise sources

(switching power supplies, LCD assemblies, etc.). If the cables are near the noise sources, the noise may be coupled into the RF cable and into the antenna.

Disabling the Diversity Antenna Use the AT command !RXDEN=0 to disable receive diversity or !RXDEN=1 to enable receive diversity. Note: A diversity antenna is used to improve connection quality and reliability through redundancy. Because two antennas may experience difference interference effects (signal distortion, delay, etc.), when one antenna receives a degraded signal, the other may not be similarly affected. Rev Apr.18 10 Ground Connection RF Specifications When connecting the module to system ground:

Prevent noise leakage by establishing a very good ground connection to the module through the host connector. Connect to system ground using the modules mounting hole.

Minimize ground noise leakage into the RF. Depending on the host board design, noise could potentially be coupled to the module from the host board. This is mainly an issue for host designs that have signals traveling along the length of the module, or circuitry operating at both ends of the module interconnects. Interference and Sensitivity Several interference sources can affect the modules RF performance

(RF desense). Common sources include power supply noise and device-

generated RF. RF desense can be addressed through a combination of mitigation techniques

(Methods to Mitigate Decreased Rx Performance on page 12) and radiated sensitivity measurement (Radiated Sensitivity Measurement on page 12). Note: The EM7511 is based on ZIF (Zero Intermediate Frequency) technologies. When performing EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) tests, there are no IF (Intermediate Frequency) components from the module to consider. Interference From Other Wireless Devices Wireless devices operating inside the host device can cause interference that affects the module. To determine the most suitable locations for antennas on your host device, evaluate each wireless devices radio system, considering the following:

Any harmonics, sub-harmonics, or cross-products of signals generated by wireless devices that fall in the modules Rx range may cause spurious response, resulting in decreased Rx performance. The Tx power and corresponding broadband noise of other wireless devices may overload or increase the noise floor of the modules receiver, resulting in Rx desense.

The severity of this interference depends on the closeness of the other antennas to the modules antenna. To determine suitable locations for each wireless devices antenna, thoroughly evaluate your host devices design. Host-generated RF Interference All electronic computing devices generate RF interference that can negatively affect the receive sensitivity of the module. Rev Apr.18 11 Product Technical Specification Display panel and display drivers Switching-mode power supplies Proximity of host electronics to the antenna in wireless devices can contribute to decreased Rx performance. Components that are most likely to cause this include:

Microprocessor and memory

Device-generated RF Interference The module can cause interference with other devices. Wireless devices such as AirPrime embedded modules transmit in bursts (pulse transients) for set durations

(RF burst frequencies). Hearing aids and speakers convert these burst frequencies into audible frequencies, resulting in audible noise. Methods to Mitigate Decreased Rx Performance It is important to investigate sources of localized interference early in the design cycle. To reduce the effect of device-generated RF on Rx performance:

Put the antenna as far as possible from sources of interference. The drawback is that the module may be less convenient to use. Shield the host device. The module itself is well shielded to avoid external interference. However, the antenna cannot be shielded for obvious reasons. In most instances, it is necessary to employ shielding on the components of the host device (such as the main processor and parallel bus) that have the highest RF emissions. Filter out unwanted high-order harmonic energy by using discrete filtering on low frequency lines. Form shielding layers around high-speed clock traces by using multi-layer PCBs. Route antenna cables away from noise sources.

Radiated Spurious Emissions (RSE) When designing an antenna for use with AirPrime embedded modules, the host device with an AirPrime embedded module must satisfy any applicable standards/local regulatory bodies for radiated spurious emission (RSE) for receive-only mode and for transmit mode (transmitter is operating).

Note that antenna impedance affects radiated emissions, which must be compared against the conducted 50-ohm emissions baseline. (AirPrime embedded modules meet the 50-ohm conducted emissions requirement.) Radiated Sensitivity Measurement A wireless host device contains many noise sources that contribute to a reduction in Rx performance. Rev Apr.18 12 RF Specifications To determine the extent of any receiver performance desensitization due to self-

generated noise in the host device, over-the-air (OTA) or radiated testing is required. This testing can be performed by Sierra Wireless or you can use your own OTA test chamber for in-house testing.

depots, and chemical plants Near medical equipment, life support equipment, or any equipment which may be susceptible to any form of radio interference. In such areas, the EM7511 module MUST BE POWERED OFF. Otherwise, the EM7511 module can transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment. Rev Apr.18 14 Regulatory Compliance and Industry Certifications In an aircraft, the EM7511 module MUST BE POWERED OFF. Otherwise, the EM7511 module can transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard systems and may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft or disrupt the cellular network. Use of a cellular phone in an aircraft is illegal in some jurisdictions. Failure to observe this instruction may lead to suspension or denial of cellular telephone services to the offender, or legal action or both. Some airlines may permit the use of cellular phones while the aircraft is on the ground and the door is open. The EM7511 module may be used normally at this time. Important Compliance Information for United States and Canada The EM7511 module, upon commercial release, will have been granted modular approval for mobile applications. Integrators may use the EM7511 module in their final products without additional FCC/IC (Industry Canada) certification if they meet the following conditions. Otherwise, additional FCC/IC approvals must be obtained. 1. At least 20 cm separation distance between the antenna and the users body must be maintained at all times. 2. To comply with FCC/IC 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 the limits stipulated in Table 4-1 on page 16. 3. The EM7511 module may transmit simultaneously with other collocated radio transmitters within a host device, provided the following conditions are met:

Each collocated radio transmitter has been certified by FCC/IC for mobile application. At least 20 cm separation distance between the antennas of the collocated transmitters and the users body must be maintained at all times. The radiated power of a collocated transmitter must not exceed the EIRP limit stipulated in Table 4-1 on page 16.

*Important: The FCC and IC have a strict EIRP limit in Band 30 for mobile and portable stations in order to protect adjacent satellite radio, aeronautical mobile telemetry, and deep space network operations. Mobile and portable stations must not have antenna gain exceeding 1 dBi in Band 30. Additionally, both the FCC and IC prohibit the use of external vehicle-mounted antennas for mobile and portable stations in this band. Fixed stations may use antennas with higher gain in Band 30 due to relaxed EIRP limits. EM7511 modules used as fixed subscriber stations in Canada or fixed customer premises equipment (CPE) stations in the United States may have an antenna gain up to 10 dBi in Band 30, however, the use of outdoor antennas or outdoor station installations are prohibited except if professionally installed in locations that are at least 20 meters from roadways or in locations where it can be shown that the ground power level of -44 dBm per 5 MHz in the bands 23052315 MHz and 23502360 MHz or

-55 dBm per 5 MHz in the bands 23152320 MHz and 23452350 MHz will not be exceeded at the nearest roadway. For the purposes of this notice, a roadway includes a highway, street, avenue, parkway, driveway, square, place, bridge, viaduct or trestle, any part of which is intended for use by the general public for the passage of vehicles. Mobile carriers often have limits on total radiated power (TRP), which requires an efficient antenna. The end product with an embedded module must output sufficient power to meet the TRP requirement but not too much to exceed FCC/IC's EIRP limit. If you need assistance in meeting this requirement, please contact Sierra Wireless. Rev Apr.18 16 Regulatory Compliance and Industry Certifications 4. A label must be affixed to the outside of the end product into which the EM7511 module is incorporated, with a statement similar to the following:

This device contains FCC ID: N7NEM75S Contains transmitter module IC: 2417C-EM75S where 2417C-EM75S is the modules certification number. 5. A user manual with the end product must clearly indicate the operating requirements and conditions that must be observed to ensure compliance with current FCC/IC RF exposure guidelines. The end product with an embedded EM7511 module may also need to pass the FCC Part 15 unintentional emission testing requirements and be properly authorized per FCC Part 15. Note: If this module is intended for use in a portable device, you are responsible for separate approval to satisfy the SAR requirements of FCC Part 2.1093 and IC RSS-102.

NOTICE

l Do not place the computer near a television or

radio receiver.

l Keep the computer away from magnets. Data

stored on the hard disk may be lost.

l This computer is not intended for the display of

images for use in medical diagnosis.

l This computer is not intended for a use with

connection of medical equipment for the pur-

pose of medical diagnosis.

l Panasonic shall not be liable for loss of data

or other incidental or consequential damages

resulting from the use of this product.

l Do not touch the terminals on the battery pack.

The battery pack may no longer function prop-

erly if the contacts are dirty or damaged.

l Do not expose the battery pack to water, or

allow it to become wet.

l If the battery pack will not be used for a long

period of time (a month or more), charge or

discharge (use) the battery pack until the

remaining battery level becomes 30% to 40%

and store it in a cool, dry place.

l This computer prevents overcharging of the

battery by recharging only when the remaining

power is less than approx. 95% of capacity.

l The battery pack is not charged when the

computer is first purchased. Be sure to charge

it before using it for the first time. When the AC

adaptor is connected to the computer, charging

begins automatically.

l Should the battery leak and the fluid get into

your eyes, do not rub your eyes. Immediately

flush your eyes with clear water and see a doc-

tor for medical treatment as soon as possible.

NOTE

l The battery pack may become warm during

recharging or normal use. This is completely

normal.

l Recharging will not commence if internal

temperature of the battery pack is outside of

the allowable temperature range (0 °C to 50 °C

{32 °F to 122 °F}). (è

Operating Instruc-

tions - Reference Manual “Basic Operation”

“Battery Power”) Once the allowable range

requirement is satisfied, charging begins auto-

matically. Note that the recharging time varies

based on the usage conditions. (Recharging

takes longer than usual when the temperature

is 10 °C {50 °F} or below.)

l If the temperature is low, the operating time is

shortened. Only use the computer within the

allowable temperature range.

l The battery pack is a consumable item. If the

amount of time the computer can be run by us-

ing a particular battery pack becomes dramati-

cally shorter and repeated recharging does

not restore its performance, the battery pack

should be replaced with a new one.

l When transporting a spare battery inside a

package, briefcase, etc., it is recommended

that it be placed in a plastic bag so that its con-

tacts are protected.

l Always power off the computer when it is not

in use. Leaving the computer on when the

AC adaptor is not connected will exhaust the

remaining battery capacity.

l La charge ne peut commencer si la tempéra-

ture interne de la batterie excède la plage de

températures acceptable (0 °C à 50 °C).

(è

Manual “Basic Operation” “Battery Power”) La

charge commence automatiquement lorsque

la température revient dans les limites auto-

risées. Il est important de noter que le temps

de charge varie en fonction des conditions

d’utilisation. (Le temps de charge est plus long

que d’habitude lorsque la température est infé-

rieure ou égale à 10 °C.)

l Lorsque la température est basse, l’autonomie

est diminuée. N’utiliser l’ordinateur que dans la

plage de températures autorisée.

l La batterie est un produit consommable. Si

le temps d’utilisation de la batterie est consi-

dérablement réduit et si ses performances ne

s’améliorent pas lorsqu’elle est rechargée à

plusieurs reprises, la remplacer par une nou-

velle batterie.

tor for medical treatment as soon as possible. NOTE l The battery pack may become warm during recharging or normal use. This is completely normal. Operating Instructions -

l Recharging will not commence if internal tem-

perature of the battery pack is outside of the al-

lowable temperature range (0 C to 50 C {32 F to 122 F}). (

Reference Manual Basic Operation Battery Power) Once the allowable range requirement is satisfied, charging begins automatically. Note that the recharging time varies based on the us-

age conditions. (Recharging takes longer than usual when the temperature is 10 C {50 F} or below.) l If the temperature is low, the operating time is shortened. Only use the computer within the allowable temperature range. 6 l The battery pack is a consumable item. If the amount of time the computer can be run by us-

ing a particular battery pack becomes dramati-

cally shorter and repeated recharging does not restore its performance, the battery pack should be replaced with a new one. l When transporting a spare battery inside a package, briefcase, etc., it is recommended that it be placed in a plastic bag so that its contacts are protected. l Always power off the computer when it is not in use. Leaving the computer on when the AC adaptor is not connected will exhaust the remaining battery capacity. THIS PRODUCT IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE AS, OR AS PART OF, NUCLEAR EQUIPMENT/

Data stored on the hard disk may be lost. l This computer is not intended for the display of images for use in medical diagnosis. l This computer is not intended for a use with connection of medical equipment for the pur-

pose of medical diagnosis. l Panasonic shall not be liable for loss of data or other incidental or consequential damages resulting from the use of this product. l Do not touch the terminals on the battery pack. The battery pack may no longer function prop-

erly if the contacts are dirty or damaged. l Do not expose the battery pack to water, or allow it to become wet. l If the battery pack will not be used for a long period of time (a month or more), charge or discharge (use) the battery pack until the remaining battery level becomes 30% to 40%

and store it in a cool, dry place. l This computer prevents overcharging of the battery by recharging only when the remaining power is less than approx. 95% of capacity. l The battery pack is not charged when the computer is first purchased. Be sure to charge it before using it for the first time. When the AC adaptor is connected to the computer, charging begins automatically. l Should the battery leak and the fluid get into your eyes, do not rub your eyes. Immediately flush your eyes with clear water and see a doc-

tor for medical treatment as soon as possible. NOTE l The battery pack may become warm during recharging or normal use. This is completely normal. l Recharging will not commence if internal temperature of the battery pack is outside of the allowable temperature range (0 C to 50 C

{32 F to 122 F}). (

Operating Instruc-

tions - Reference Manual Basic Operation Battery Power) Once the allowable range requirement is satisfied, charging begins auto-

matically. Note that the recharging time varies based on the usage conditions. (Recharging takes longer than usual when the temperature is 10 C {50 F} or below.) l If the temperature is low, the operating time is shortened. Only use the computer within the allowable temperature range. l The battery pack is a consumable item. If the amount of time the computer can be run by us-

ing a particular battery pack becomes dramati-

cally shorter and repeated recharging does not restore its performance, the battery pack should be replaced with a new one. l When transporting a spare battery inside a package, briefcase, etc., it is recommended that it be placed in a plastic bag so that its con-

tacts are protected. l Always power off the computer when it is not in use. Leaving the computer on when the AC adaptor is not connected will exhaust the remaining battery capacity. While we anticipate use of our products in cer-

(For Installation within Panasonic Personal Computer Model FZ-55 (mk3)) To whom it may concern:

This Class II permissive change application is for the following:

Installation of module (FCC ID: ACJ9TGWW18A) in Panasonic Host Computer Model FZ-55. Co-location with certified WLAN module (FCC ID: ACJ9TGWL23A) in host. We declare the device without RSE testing data for the following reasons:

Original FCC testing was performing with a higher gain antenna. The host under this application uses the same type of antenna with lower gain across the emission bands. As a result, the current platform yields lower level of radiated emission. The original FCC testing on module under FCC ID: ACJ9TGWW18A was performed when the antenna was connected to the module in an open environment. The current platform under application has the antenna installed inside the laptop enclosure. The physical restraints introduced by host enclosure should have resulted in equal or lower level of radiated emission. No other radio parameters have been changed. No additional emissions are generated due to simultaneous transmission operations. If you have any questions regarding the authorization, please do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you for your attention in this matter.
