1 Foreword
1.1 Introduction
The document describes the electrical characteristics, RF performance, dimensions and application
environment, etc. of FG360-NA (hereinafter referred to as FG360). With the assistance of the document
and other instructions, the developers can quickly understand the hardware functions of FG360 modules
and develop products.
2 Overview
2.1 Introduction
The FG360 series module is a 5G module which supports NSA and SA network architectures. The FG360
integrates core devices such as Baseband, Memory, PMU, Transceiver, and PA. It supports 5G NR Sub6,
FDD-LTE, TDD-LTE, and WCDMA long-distance communication modes. Supports uplink 2×2 MIMO and
downlink 4×4 MIMO multi-antenna configuration in SA mode. It also supports GNSS wireless positioning
technology. The FG360 is designed in an LGA package and is suitable for a variety of eMBB scenarios,
such as CPE, VR/AR, gateway, TV box, and intelligent monitoring.

2.4.1 Important Notice to OEM integrators
1. This module is limited to OEM installation ONLY.
2. This module is limited to installation in fixed applications, according to Part 2.1091(b).
3. The separate approval is required for all other operating configurations, including portable
configurations with respect to Part 2.1093 and different antenna configurations
4. For FCC Part 15.31 (h) and (k): The host manufacturer is responsible for additional testing to verify
compliance as a composite system. When testing the host device for compliance with Part
15 Subpart B, the host manufacturer is required to show compliance with Part 15 Subpart B while the
transmitter module(s) are installed and operating. The modules should be transmitting and the evaluation
should confirm that the module's intentional emissions are compliant (i.e. fundamental and out of band
emissions). The host manufacturer must verify that there are no additional unintentional emissions other
than what is permitted in Part 15 Subpart B or emissions are complaint with the transmitter(s) rule(s).
The Grantee will provide guidance to the host manufacturer for Part 15 B requirements if needed.
