Regulatory Compliance  

 

2.1 FCC 

 
The modem was tested and certified to meet FCC Parts 15 in a stand-alone 
configuration, which demonstrated that the GSM1218 SA-GL complies with Part 
15 emission limits.  FCC Part 22 & Part 24 is covered by the Enfora Enabler-IIG  
"modular approval" process for a transmitter.  This approach, described by FCC 
Public Notice DA 00-131407 released June 26, 2000, is intended to afford relief 
to equipment manufacturers by eliminating the requirement for obtaining a new 
equipment authorization for the same transmitter when installed in a new device. 
 
In order to use the GSM1218 SA-GL without additional FCC certification 
approvals, the installation must meet the following conditions: 
 

For the transmitter to meet the MPE categorical exclusion 
requirements of 2.1091, the ERP must be less than 1.5 watts for 
personnel separation distance of at least 20 cm (7.9 in).  Therefore, the 
maximum antenna gain cannot 3.3dBi.  If greater than 1.5 
watts exists, then additional testing and FCC approval is required. 

 

2.2  R&TTE  - 

 

 

The GSM1218 SA-GL modem has been fully tested and complies with 
all the requirements of EN301 489-1, EN301 489-7 and EN60950-
1:2001. Compliance to EN301 511 has been demonstrated by testing 
on both the GSM1218 and the integrated GSM0108 module.
