Warning
Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
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.
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 transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
Operations in the 5.15-5.25GHz band are restricted to indoor usage only.

2.4 Limited module procedures
Not applicable.
2.5 Trace antenna designs
Not applicable.
2.6 RF exposure considerations
This equipment complies with FCC mobile radiation exposure limits set

RTL8822C User’s Manual
forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed
and operated with a minimum distance of 20cm between the radiator &
your body. If the module is installed in a portable host, a separate SAR
evaluation is required to confirm compliance with relevant FCC portable
RF exposure rules.

2.8 Label and compliance information
The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following:
“Contains FCC ID: TX2-RTL8822C”. The grantee's FCC ID can be used only
when all FCC compliance requirements are met.
2.9 Information on test modes and additional testing requirements

RTL8822C User’s Manual
This transmitter is tested in a standalone mobile RF exposure condition and
any co-located or simultaneous transmission with other transmitter(s) or
portable use will require a separate class II permissive change re-evaluation
or new certification.
2.10 Additional testing, Part 15 Subpart B disclaimer
This transmitter module is tested as a subsystem and its certification does
not cover the FCC Part 15 Subpart B (unintentional radiator) rule
requirement applicable to the final host. The final host will still need to be
reassessed for compliance to this portion of rule requirements if applicable.
As long as all conditions above are met, further transmitter test will 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 can not 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 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 FCC authorization.
Manual Information To the End User
The OEM integrator has to 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.
OEM/Host manufacturer responsibilities
OEM/Host manufacturers are ultimately responsible for the compliance of the
Host and Module. The final product must be reassessed against all the
essential requirements of the FCC rule such as FCC Part 15 Subpart B before
it can be placed on the US market. This includes reassessing the transmitter
module for compliance with the Radio and EMF essential requirements of the
FCC rules. This module must not be incorporated into any other device or

dispositif ne doit pas produire de brouillage préjudiciable, et (2) ce dispositif doit
accepter tout brouillage reçu, y compris un brouillage susceptible de provoquer un
fonctionnement indésirable.
Radiation Exposure Statement: (Portable)
The product comply with the Canada portable RF exposure limit set forth for an
uncontrolled environment and are safe for intended operation as described in this
manual. The further RF exposure reduction can be achieved if the product can be kept
as far as possible from the user body or set the device to lower output power if such
function is available.
Déclaration d'exposition aux radiations:
Le produit est conforme aux limites d'exposition pour les appareils portables RF pour
les Etats-Unis et le Canada établies pour un environnement non contrôlé.
Le produit est sûr pour un fonctionnement tel que décrit dans ce manuel. La réduction
aux expositions RF peut être augmentée si l'appareil peut être conservé aussi loin que
possible du corps de l'utilisateur ou que le dispositif est réglé sur la puissance de sortie
la plus faible si une telle fonction est disponible.

RTL8822C User’s Manual
This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions: (For
module device use)
1) The antenna must be installed and operated with greater than 20cm between the
antenna and users, and
2) The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or
antenna.
As long as 2conditions above are met, further transmitter test will 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.
Cet appareil est conçu uniquement pour les intégrateurs OEM dans les conditions
suivantes: (Pour utilisation de dispositif module)
1) L'antenne doit être installé et exploité avec plus de 20 cm entre l'antenne et les
utilisateurs, et
2) Le module émetteur peut ne pas être coïmplanté avec un autre émetteur ou
antenne.
Tant que les 2conditions 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 chargéde réévaluer le produit final (y compris l'émetteur) et l'obtention d'une
autorisation distincte au Canada.
