Regulatory Note: Operation in the 5150-5250 MHz band is limited to indoor use only. Certified Antennas The SDC-PE15N provides two Hirose U.FL type antenna connectors to support transmit and receive diversity. For single antenna, non-diversity applications, OEMs are advised to use the Main (not Aux) antenna connector and should disable transmit and receive diversity from the Global tab of the Summit Client Utility (SCU) software utility. The SDC-PE15N has been tested to the regulatory standards defined in the “Certifications” section of the Specifications table above. These tests were conducted with the following antennas: Summit SDC-CF22G Antenna (click for datasheet)  Form Factor: Chip Antenna on PCB  Type: Dipole  Maximum 2.4 GHz Gain: 0 dBi Cisco AIR-ANT 4941 (click for datasheet)  Form Factor: Whip  Type: Dipole  Maximum 2.4 GHz Gain: 2.2 dBi  Tested and Certified 2.4 GHz Transmit Power: 90% of maximum setting (power must be reduced to 90%) Radiall Larson Dipole (click for datasheet)  Form Factor: Whip  Type: Dipole  Maximum 2.4 GHz Gain: 1.6 dBi (not used during testing)  Maximum 5 GHz Gain: 5 dBi HUBER+SUHNER (click for datasheet)  Form Factor: Whip  Type: Monopole  Maximum 2.4 GHz Gain: 3 dBi  Maximum 5 GHz Gain: 6.5 dBi  Tested and Certified 2.4 GHz Transmit Power: 95% of maximum setting (power must be reduced to 95%)  Tested and Certified 5 GHz Transmit Power: 100% of maximum setting (no reduction of power is required in the 5 GHz band)

With the Summit Manufacturing Utility software utility, OEMs may reduce the transmit power of the SDC-PE15N to account for higher antenna gain when necessary. In some cases, OEMs may be able to reduce certification efforts by using antennas that are of like type and equal or lesser gain to the above listed antennas. Documentation Requirements In order to maintain regulatory compliance, when integrating the SDC-PE15N into a host device and leveraging Summit’s grants and certifications, it is necessary to meet the documentation requirements set forth by the applicable regulatory agencies. The following sections (FCC, Industry Canada, and European Union) outline the information that must be included in the user’s guide and external labels for the host devices into which the SDC-PE15N is integrated. FCC User’s Guide Requirements As outlined in the Operational Description, the SDC-PE15N complies with FCC Part 15 Rules for a Limited Modular Approval. To leverage Summit’s grant, the two conditions below must be met for the host device into which the SDC-PE15N 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 FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC 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 FCC authorization. When using Summit’s FCC grant for the SDC-PE15N, the integrator must include specific information in the user’s guide for the device into which the SDC-PE15N is integrated. The integrator must not provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module in the user’s manual of the device into which the SDC-PE15N is integrated. The following FCC statements must be added in their entirety and without modification into a prominent place in the user’s guide for the device into which the SDC-PE15N is integrated: “IMPORTANT NOTE: To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the antenna used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all
