FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. End users must follow the specif-
ic operating instructions for satisfying RF exposure compliance. This transmitter meets the Mobile requirements at a distance of 20 cm
and above from the human body, in accordance to the limit(s) exposed in the RF Exposure Analysis. This transmitter also meets the
Portable requirements at distances equal or above 5 mm for the MGM210P22A and 36.17 mm for the MGM210P32A in the case of
Zigbee, and respectively 5.3 mm and 44.0 mm in the case of Bluetooth Low Energy. These distances are reported for convenience also
in Table 11.2. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter except in ac-
cordance with FCC multi-transmitter product procedures.
OEM Responsibilities to comply with FCC Regulations
This module has been tested for compliance to FCC Part 15.
OEM integrators are responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements needed with this module in-
stalled (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.). Additionally, investigative measurements and spot
checking are strongly recommended to verify that the full system compliance is maintained when the module is integrated, in accord-
ance to the "Host Product Testing Guidance" in FCC's KDB 996369 D04 Module Integration Guide V01.

General Considerations
This transmitter module is tested as a subsystem and its certification does not cover the FCC Part 15 Subpart B (unintentional radia-
tor) rule requirement applicable to the final host. The final host will still need to be reassessed for compliance to this portion of rule
requirements if applicable.
•
Manual Information to the End User
The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end-user regarding how to install or remove this RF module in
the user’s manual of the end product which integrates this module.
The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warnings as shown in this manual.
•
OEM/Host Manufacturer Responsibilities
OEM/Host manufacturers are ultimately responsible for the compliance of the Host and Module. The final product must be reas-
sessed against all the essential requirements of the FCC rule such as FCC Part 15 Subpart B before it can be placed on the US
market. This includes reassessing the transmitter module for compliance with the Radio and EMF essential requirements of the FCC
rules. This module must not be incorporated into any other device or system without retesting for compliance as multi-radio and
combined equipment.
Separation
• To meet the SAR exemption for portable conditions, the minimum separation distance indicated in Table 11.2 must be maintained
between the human body and the radiator (antenna) at all times. In particular, in the use case of Zigbee the minimum distance must
be 5 mm for the MGM210P22A and 36.17 mm for the MGM210P32A, whereas in the use case of Bluetooth Low Energy the mini-
mum distances must be 5.3 mm and 44.0 mm respectively.
• This transmitter module is tested in a standalone mobile RF exposure condition, and in case of any co-located radio transmitter be-
ing allowed to transmit simultaneously, or in case of portable use at closer distances from the human body than those allowing the
exceptions rules to be applied, a separate additional SAR evaluation will be required, ultimately leading to a Class II Permissive
Change, or more rarely to a new grant.
•
Important Note:
In the event that these conditions cannot be met, the final product will have to undergo additional testing to evalu-
ate the RF exposure in order for the FCC authorization to remain valid, and a permissive change will have to be applied. The evalua-
tion (SAR) is in the responsibility of the end-product’s manufacturer, as well as the permissive change that can be carried out with
the help of the customer's own Telecommunication Certification Body as the grant holder’s agent.
