Conditions on using BRCM regulatory approvals:
1.
Antennas must be installed to provide 20 cm separation distance from the transmitting antenna to
the body of user during normal operating condition AND only those antennas filed under FCC ID:
QDS-BRCM1062 with same type and lesser gain can be used with this device.

2.
When the Module is installed in a netbook/notebook/laptop/tablet PC where the antenna location is
less than 20 cm separation distance to the body of the user, additional equipment authorization is
required except the conditions evaluated for the specific host (MacBook Pro Model A1425) listed
below :
I.
Antenna must be installed at the position to provide at least 7 mm to the body of user.
Antenna-to-user distance is measured by positioning display screen open 90 degree to
the keyboard. For antenna is not embedded in the display section, the distance is
measured between the nearest point between antenna to the edge/surface of device;
and
II.
Antenna-to-Antenna separation distance shall be greater than 5 cm between each of
transmitting antenna; and
III.
Antenna structures must be similar to the one documented in FCC filing. Variation on
the antenna structure may contribute difference SAR readings even if antenna is the
same type. It the antenna(s) used is different than the ones in FCC filing; it is
required for host integrator to consult with Broadcom in determining applicability of
approval condition.
3.
The regulatory label on the final system must include the statement:“Contains FCC ID:
QDS-BRCM1062”or using electronic labeling method as documented in KDB 784748.
4.
The final system integrator must ensure there is no instruction provided in the user manual or
customer documentation indicating how to install or remove the transmitter module except such
device has implemented two-ways authentication between module and the host system.
5.
Simultaneous Transmission Requirements
I.
When multiple transmitters and antennas transmit simultaneously in a
laptop/notebook/netbook /tablet, the following may be used to determine simultaneous
transmission SAR evaluation reduction or exclusion requirements.
(i)
Identify all possible combinations of simultaneous transmission configurations for all
transmitters and antennas installed in the display screen and keyboard of the intended
host computer configurations
(ii)
Drawings showing antenna locations and separation distances between each of
simultaneous transmitting antenna(s) and antenna-to-user.
