3 Regulatory Approvals and Compliances
The N5 ANT SoC module series, when loaded with ANT and/or BLUETOOTH low energy stack, has received
regulatory approvals in the United States (FCC) and Canada (IC), and has been verified to conform to the
appropriate regulations in Europe, Australia and New Zealand, and Japan. The module series has been qualified by
BLUETOOTH SIG. Such approvals and qualification allow the user to place the module inside a finished product
and, in most cases, not require regulatory testing for an intentional radiator, provided no changes or modifications
are made to the module circuitry. This does not preclude the possibility that some other form of authorization or
testing may be required for the finished product. Changes or modifications could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment. The end user must comply with all of the instructions provided by the Grantee, which
indicate installation and/or operating conditions necessary for compliance.
3.1 United States
The N5 ANT SoC module series 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.
The N5 module series 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.
The N5 module series does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Unauthorized repairs or modifications could
result in permanent damage to the equipment, and void your warranty and your authority to operate this device
under Part 15 regulations.
The N5 module series is labelled with its own FCC ID, O6R2398 (note: First Character is the letter O, not the # 0.)
If the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into
which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use
wording such as the following: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: O6R2398” or “Contains FCC ID: O6R2398”.
Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used.
3.2 Canada
The N5 ANT SoC module series complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
(Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence.
L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2)
l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible
d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.)
To comply with Industry Canada regulations, it is required that product containing the N5 module series display a
label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording similar to the following: “Contains IC:
3797A-2398”
This information shall be affixed in such a manner as not to be removable except by destruction or defacement.
The size of the lettering shall be legible without the aid of magnification but is not required to be larger than 8-
point font size. If the device is too small to meet this condition, the information can be included in the user manual
upon agreement with Industry Canada.
