This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that the
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 or more of the following
measures:
•
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
•
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver
•
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
•
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
⚠
NINA-B50 series modules are intended for OEM integrators only. End-products that include
u-blox modules must be professionally installed in such a way that only the authorized antennas
included in the
⚠
If the antenna connector is easily accessible to the end-user, only Reversed Polarity SMA
connectors are allowed in the final end user product.
⚠
The details of the module implementation in the host device (end-product) should remain
confidential. Integrators are reminded not to share the module installation instructions to the
end-user of the end-product (host device).
⚠
Any changes or modifications NOT explicitly APPROVED by u-blox AG may invalidate compliance
with FCC rules part 15 and subsequently void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
⚠
Any changes to hardware, hosts, or co-location configuration may require new radiated emission
and SAR evaluation and/or testing.
⚠
The end-product manufacturer (OEM integrator) is responsible for verifying the end-product
compliance with FCC Part 15, subpart B limits for unintentional radiators through an accredited
test facility.

Configuration control and software security of end-products
☞
“Modular transmitter” hereafter refers to FCC ID.
As the end-product must comply with the requirements addressed by the OET KDB 594280
the host product integrating the NINA-B50 must comply with the following requirements:
•
Upon request from u-blox, the host product manufacturer will provide all of the necessary
information and documentation to demonstrate how the requirements listed below are met.
•
The host product manufacturer will not modify the modular transmitter hardware.
•
The configuration of the modular transmitter when installed into the host product must be
within the authorization of the modular transmitter at all times and cannot be changed to
include unauthorized modes of operation through accessible interfaces of the host product.
•
The host product uses only authorized firmware images provided by u-blox and/or by the
manufacturer of the RF chipset used inside the modular transmitter.
•
The modular transmitter must when installed into the host product have a regional setting
that is compliant with authorized US modes and the host product is protected from being
modified by third parties to configure unauthorized modes of operation for the modular
transmitter, including the country code.
