This is satended to demonstrate that the module is capable of. complying with Part 15 emission limits regardless of the device into which it is eventually installed. Unless the transmitter module will be battery powered, it must comply with the AC line conducted requirements found in Section 15.207. AC or DC power lines and data input/output lines connected mM wre | Mojave to the module must not contain ferrites, unless they will be marketed with the module (see Section we PN 15.27(a)). The length of these lines shall be length typical of actual use or, if that length is unknown, at least 10 centimeters to insure that there is no coupling between the case of the module and supporting equipment.

* If a module does NOT meet one or more of the above 8 requirements, the applicant may request Limited Modular Approval (LMA). This Limited Modular Approval (LMA) is applied with the understanding that the applicant will demonstrate and will retain control over the final installation of the device, such that compliance of the end product is always assured. The operating condition(s) for the LMA; the module is only approved for use when installed in devices produced by grantee. A description regarding how control of the end product, into which the module will be installed, will be maintained by the applicant/manufacturer, such that full compliance of the end product is always ensured should be provided here. Details: The end product into which this module is installed is controlled by the applicant / grantee, in that the installation connector employed with this product ts unique to the host product produced by this manufacturer. No other host product can make use of this module, and the applicant will ensure all hosts it produces are compliant with this module installed.
