Modem Integration Guide

1. Safety Precautions

1.1. Important Safety Information

The following information applies to the devices described in this manual. Always observe all standard and
accepted safety precautions and guidelines when handling any electrical device.
•
Save this manual: it contains important safety information and operating instructions.
•
Do not expose the Enfora Enabler III-G product to open flames.
•
Ensure that liquids do not spill onto the devices.
•
Do not attempt to disassemble the product: Doing so will void the warranty. With the
exception of the Subscriber Identification Module (SIM), this product does not contain
consumer-serviceable components.

2. Regulatory Compliance FCC

2.1. Integration Considerations and Installation Requirements

The Enabler III-G modem is designed for use in a variety of host units, "enabling" the host
platform to perform wireless data communications. However, there are certain criteria relative to
integrating the modem into a host platform such as a PC, laptop, handheld or PocketPC
and control unit, etc. that must be considered to ensure continued compliance with FCC
compliance requirements.
•
In order to use the Enabler III-G modem without additional FCC certification approvals, the
installation must meet the following conditions:
•
Maximum RF output power and antenna gain to meet Maximum Permissible Exposure
Requirements: GSM850 mode: Power at antenna port is +32 dBm. The maximum gain
is 4.5 dBi(2.35 dBd). GSM1900 mode: Power at antenna port is 31.3 dBm. The
maximum gain is 2 dBi in order to meet the requirements of maximum 2 watts EIRP for
mobile transmitters.If RF power and/or antenna gain is desired, a separate FCC
certification is required.
•
If used in a "portable" application such as a handheld or body worn device with the
antenna less than 20 cm (7.9 in.) from the human body when the device is operating,
then the integrator is responsible for passing additional "as installed" testing and the
device will require it's own FCC ID:
•
SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) testing, with results submitted to the FCC for
approval prior to selling the integrated unit. If unable to meet SAR requirements,
then the host unit must be restricted to "mobile" use (see below).
•
Unintentional emissions, FCC Part 15; results do not have to be submitted to the
FCC unless requested, although the test provides substantiation for required labeling
(see below).
•
ERP and EIRP measurements for FCC Parts 22 and 24, alternatively a full retest on
FCC Parts 22 and 24 can be performed
