Storage temperature: 5 to +40 Storage humidity: 20% to 90% RH Please use this Module within 12month after vacuum-packaged. The Module shall be stored without opening the packing. After the packing opened, the Module shall be used within 72hours. When the color of the humidity indicator in the packing changed, the Module shall be baked before soldering. Baking condition : 60, 24hours, 1time. ESD Sensitivity The Module is a static-sensitive electronic device. Do not operate or store near strong electrostatic fields. Take proper ESD precautions!
15 http://www.b-link.net.cn The Module is designed to comply with the FCC statement. FCC ID is 2AL6KBL-
M8812CU2. The host system using Module, should have label indicated it contain modulars FCC ID: 2AL6KBL-M8812CU2 . This radio module must not installed to colocate 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 assign by Company name: Shenzhen Bilian Electronic Co.,Ltd. Model no.:BL-M8812CU2 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 deaigned for a compact PCB design .It should be installed and operated with host or other 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 2dBi in the 2.4G band and 2.75dBi in the 5G band. The module uses IPEX antenna interface and use dipole antenna,this antenna is sold with the module. Notice to OEM integrator The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warning as show in this manual. The OEM integrator is responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed. If the final product contains circuits of other FCC PART 15 Subparts,the final host product still requires Part 15 Subpart B compliance testing with the modular transmitter installed The intended use is generally not for the general public.lt is generally for industry/commercial use. The connector is within the transmitter enclosure and can only be accessed by disassembly of the transmitter that is not nomally required, the user has no access to the connector.Installation must be controlled. Installation requires special training. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 cm between the radiator and your body Operations in the 5.15-5.35GHz band are restricted to indoors usage only.
