Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement:
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. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void your authority to operate the equipment. RF exposure statements This Transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 centimeters between the radiator and your body or nearby persons. CFR 47 FCC PART 15 SUBPART C (15.247) and SUBPART E (15.407) has been investigated. It is applicable to the modular transmitter. The devices must be installed and used in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions as described in the user documentation that comes with the product. This radio transmitterRYK-WNFQ268AXBT has been approved by Federal Communications Commission to operate with the antenna types listed below, with the maximum permissible gain indicated. Antenna types not included in this list that have a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for any type listed are strictly prohibited for use with this device. Unique antenna connector must be used on the Part 15 authorized transmitters used in the host product.

This exterior label can use wording such as the following: Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID:RYK-
WNFQ268AXBT Or Contains FCC ID:RYK-WNFQ268AXBT The modular transmitter is only FCC authorized for the specific rule parts (i.e., FCC transmitter rules) listed on the grant, and the host product manufacturer is responsible for compliance to any other FCC rules that apply to the host not covered by the modular transmitter grant of certification. The final host product still requires Part 15 Subpart B compliance testing with the modular transmitter installed. Manufacturers of U-NII devices are responsible for ensuring frequency stability such that an emission is maintained within the band of operation under all conditions of normal operation as specified in the users manual. The module is for indoor applications only. The module may not be used for the purposes of remote control of drones The antenna must be installed into the host device so that the end user does not have access to the antenna or its connector. Minimum antenna gain, including any cable losses, for the 6GHz bands must exceed 0dBi. Industry Canada statement:
