Enfora Enabler II-G Assisted GPS Modem Integration Guide Note: Additional care must be taken by the installer and/or user of the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS
products to ensure proper antenna selection and installation. Adherence to the above conditions
is necessary to comply with FCC requirements for safe operation regarding exposure to RF
radiation.
Depending upon the application and type of product into which the Enfora Enabler II-G A-GPS
module has been incorporated, specific OEM actions and responsibilities required to meet these
conditions vary. However, in all cases the primary concern is to ensure compliance with current
FCC guidelines and regulations that limit human exposure to radio frequency radiation.
Definitions
For the purpose of determining compliance with current FCC rules addressing human
exposure to radio frequency radiation, the FCC has established the following three
categories of transmitting devices:
• Portable Devices – devices where the antenna is located within 20 cm (7.87
inches) of any person, including the user, if applicable. Portable devices
operating under the authority of Part 22 or 24 (broadband PCS) are limited to a
maximum of 2 W EIRP.
• Mobile Devices – devices designed to be used in other than fixed locations and
generally such that the antenna is located at a minimum of 20 cm (7.87 inches)
from any person, including the user, if applicable. Mobile devices operating
under the authority of Part 22 or 24 (broadband PCS) are limited to a maximum
of 2 W EIRP.
• Fixed devices – devices in which the antenna, either integral to the product or
remotely located, is physically secured at one location and is not able to be easily
moved to another location.
