Updated FCC Transmitter Module Equipment Authorization Guide

The FCC Transmitter Module Equipment Authorization Guide has been updated as of July 1st, 2024, incorporating significant revisions to Section 8 pertaining to antennas, alongside clarifications in the question and answer segment.

The guide outlines four distinct module configurations:

  • Single modular transmitter
  • Single limited modular transmitter
  • Split modular transmitter
  • Limited split modular transmitter

It is crucial to note that any alterations made to the antenna or its placement have the potential to impact compliance with RF exposure regulations, necessitating additional testing. Permissible modifications can only be authorized by the requester and may require a tailored test plan for each respective host.

Therefore, this document serves as a comprehensive resource for the certification and utilization of transmitter modules, ensuring strict adherence to FCC regulatory standards.
