 AMPAK Technology Inc.   www.ampak.com.tw                Proprietary & Confidential Information   Doc. NO:   1 Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement  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.  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  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:  -  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.  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 transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
 AMPAK Technology Inc.   www.ampak.com.tw                Proprietary & Confidential Information   Doc. NO:   2  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.  This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions:  1)  The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and users, and   2)  The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna.  As long as 2 conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not be required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed  IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions can not be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID can not 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 FCC authorization.  End Product Labeling   This transmitter module is authorized only for use in device where the antenna may be installed such that 20 cm may be maintained between the antenna and users. The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following: “Contains FCC ID:ZQ6-AP6356SDXX”. The grantee's FCC ID can be used only when all FCC compliance requirements are met.  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/warning as show in this manual.
