Important: The BL600-ST holds a limited modular approval for the U.S and Canada markets. To ensure
regulatory compliance when integrating the BL600-ST into a host device, it is necessary to
follow the design implementation requirements in this manual so the BL600-ST modular
certification can carry over to the host device. The RF trace path from the BL600-ST to the
approved antenna must be equivalent to what was approved for use by Laird. If these layout
requirements cannot be met, the OEM will need to either seek a new FCC/ IC approval for their
device or seek a Class 2 Permissive Change through Laird Technologies which adds the new
antenna layout to the BL600-St approval. Contact Laird Technologies for further guidance.
The BL600-SA and BL600-SC hold full modular approvals. The OEM must follow the regulatory guidelines and
warnings listed below to inherit the modular approval.

The BL600 family has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below with a maximum gain of 2.21
dBi. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.

4 EDA-8709-2G4R2-A40-CY MAG. Layers Dipole 2.0 BL600-ST
Note: The OEM is free to choose another vendor’s antenna of like type and equal or lesser gain as an
antenna appearing in the table and still maintain compliance. Reference FCC Part 15.204(c)(4) for
further information on this topic.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and gain should be chosen
so that the equivalent isotropic radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that permitted for successful
communication.
