Note: The OEM is free to choose another vendor’s antenna of like type and equal or lesser gain as an antenna appearing in
the table and still maintain compliance. Reference FCC Part 15.204(c)(4) for further information on this topic.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and gain should be chosen so that the
equivalent isotropic radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that permitted for successful communication.
The 453-00010 and the 453-00011 hold full modular approvals. The OEM must follow the regulatory guidelines and warnings
listed below to inherit the modem approval.

This equipment 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.
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user's authority to operate this equipment.
This device 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.
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user's authority to operate this equipment.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should
be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 centimeters between the radiator and your body.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
Integration Instructions for Host Product Manufacturers
Applicable FCC rules to module –FCC Part 24/27; FCC Part 15.247
Summary of the Specific Operational Use Conditions –The module must be installed in a mobile device. This device is
intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions:
▪The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and users, and
▪The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna
As long as the two conditions above are met, further transmitter testing is not be required. However, the OEM integrator is still
responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed.
IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for example, certain laptop 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 is responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the
transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization. The OEM integrator must be aware not to provide information to the
end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module in the user’s manual of the end product which integrates this
module.
The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warning as show in this manual.
Limited Module Procedures –Not applicable
Trace Antenna Designs –Not applicable
RF Exposure Considerations –20-centimeter separation distance and co-located issue shall be met as mentioned in
Summary of the Specific Operational Use Conditions.
Product manufacturer shall provide the following text in the end-product manual:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment
should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 centimeters between the radiator and your body.

Label and Compliance Information
Product manufacturers must provide a physical or e-label with the finished product that states the following:
Contains FCC ID: SQG-PINNACLE1
Information on Test Modes and Additional Testing Requirements
LTE –Simulator is required to link up and set the module to transmit at specific frequency, output power level under operation
mode.
BT –Test tool is UwTerminal, version 7.94
Additional Testing –Part 15 Subpart B Disclaimer
The module is only FCC authorized for the specific rule parts listed on the grant, and that the host product manufacturer is
responsible for compliance to any other FCC rules that apply to the host not covered by the modular transmitter grant of
certification. The final host product still requires Part 15 Subpart B compliance testing with the modular transmitter installed.
This device contains licence-exempt transmitter(s)/receiver(s) that comply with Innovation, Science and Economic
Development Canada’s licence-exempt RSS(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
▪This device may not cause interference
▪(Ths device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device
Cet appareil contient des émetteurs / récepteurs exempts de licence qui sont conformes au (x) RSS (s) exemptés de licence
d'Innovation, Sciences et Développement économique Canada. L'opération est soumise aux deux conditions suivantes:
▪Cet appareil ne doit pas causer d'interférences
▪Cet appareil doit accepter toute interférence, y compris les interférences pouvant provoquer un fonctionnement
indésirable de l'appareil
Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with Canada radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment

Cet appareil est conçu uniquement pour les intégrateurs OEM dans les conditions suivantes:
▪Le module émetteur peut ne pas être coïmplanté avec un autre émetteur ou antenne.
Tant que les 1 condition ci-dessus sont remplies, des essais supplémentaires sur l'émetteur ne seront pas nécessaires.
Toutefois, l'intégrateur OEM est toujours responsable des essais sur son produit final pour toutes exigences de conformité
supplémentaires requis pour ce module installé.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
In the event that these conditions can not be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location with another
transmitter), then the Canada authorization is no longer considered valid and the IC ID can not 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 Canada authorization.
NOTE IMPORTANTE:
Dans le cas où ces conditions ne peuvent être satisfaites (par exemple pour certaines configurations d'ordinateur portable ou
de certaines co-localisation avec un autre émetteur), l'autorisation du Canada n'est plus considéré comme valide et l'ID IC ne
peut pas être utilisé sur le produit final. Dans ces circonstances, l'intégrateur OEM sera chargé de réévaluer le produit final (y
compris l'émetteur) et l'obtention d'une autorisation distincte au Canada.
