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 of the following 
measures:   

1.

 

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. 

2.

 

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. 

3.

 

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver 
is connected. 

4.

 

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.   

 

FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for 
compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. 

 

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two 
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any 
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. 

 

IMPORTANT NOTE: FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:   

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled 
environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm 
between the radiator & your body.   

 

Industry Canada   

User’s Guide Requirements 

As outlined in the Operational Description, the SDC-EC15N complies with Industry Canada (IC) rules for a 
Limited Modular Approval. To leverage Laird’s grant, the two conditions below must be met for the host 
device into which the SDC-EC15N is integrated:   

1.

 

The antenna is installed with 20 cm maintained between the antenna and users.   

2.

 

The transmitter module is not co-located with any other transmitter or antenna that is capable of 
simultaneous operation.   

As long as the two conditions above are met, further 

transmitter

 testing is typically not required. However, the 

OEM integrator is still responsible for testing its end-product for any additional compliance requirements 
required with this module installed, such as (but not limited to) digital device emissions and PC peripheral 
requirements. 

Important!   In the event that the two conditions above 

cannot be met 

(for example certain device 

configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the IC authorization is no longer 
considered valid and the IC ID 

cannot

 be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the 

OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) 
and obtaining a separate IC authorization.
