SDC-MCF10AG

The SDC-MCF10AG is certified for compliance to various CE, ETSI, FCC and Industry Canada standards as well as Wi-Fi Alliance and Cisco Compatible Extensions (CCX) specifications. These grants, approvals and formal test reports may be leveraged by Summit customers to achieve their required device certifications.

The degree to which customers can leverage these Summit items is dependent upon the regulatory agency, industry body and the type of end device. If any additional information or guidance is required, please contact Summit's certification group via email or by telephone at 330.434.7929.

CE / ETSI

Summit has secured the SDC-MCF10AG to the below listed CE and ETSI standards with two dual band antennas:

• Laird NanoBlade PCB Omnidirectional
• Radiall Larson Dipole

Certificates and associated test reports may be found here:

• EN 300 328
• EN 301 489
• EN 301 893
• EN60950-1

Any of these certifications may be leveraged by mobile and portable device vendors as part of their self declaration to obtain the CE mark required by members of the European Union. ETSI/CE rules differ from those of the FCC and IC in that there is no provision for a modular approval. All approvals and certifications must exist at the device, rather than the radio module, level.

Summit has obtained a Frequency Authority Certificate for the SDC-MCF10AG in compliance with Annex IV procedures in article 10.5 of R&TTE directive 99/5/EC. Like all Summit devices, the SDC-MCF10AG is fully compliant with European Union Directive 2003/95/EC or Reduction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) as per our Declaration of Compliance.

FCC and Industry Canada

Summit has received the two below FCC grants for the SDC-MCF10AG (FCC identifier TWG-SDCMCF10AG). These grants were secured with two dual band antennas:

• Laird NanoBlade PCB Omnidirectional
• Radiall Larson Dipole

The FCC Part Part 15.247 Subpart C and Industry Canada RSS-210 formal test report and resulting FCC grant relates to operation in the following frequency bands:

• 2.412 to 2.462 GHz (the ISM band)
• 5.745 to 5.805 GHz (the UNII-3 band)

The FCC Part 15.407 Subpart E and Industry Canada RSS-Gen Issue 2 formal test report, DTS test report and resulting FCC grant relates to operation in the following frequency bands:

• 5.180 to 5.240 GHz (the UNII-1 band)
• 5.280 to 5.320 GHz (the UNII-2 band)
• 5.500 to 5.700 GHz (the UNII-2 Extended band)

Please note that all transmit power values in the above FCC grants reflect average power rather than peak power and as such are lower than the transmit power values stated on the SDC-MCF10AG data sheet. The above grants are Limited Modular Approvals (LMAs). The limitations on these grants are as follows:

• This grant is valid only when the module is sold to OEM integrators and must be installed by the OEM or OEM integrators.
• The antennas used for this transmitter as shown in this filing must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
• End-users may not be provided with the module installation instructions.
• OEM integrators and end-users must be provided with transmitter operating conditions for satisfying RF exposure compliance.

Wi-Fi Alliance

Summit has received and Embedded Client Certification to the following standards: 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, WPA (both personal and enterprise) and WPA2/802.11i (both personal and enterprise). For those host devices which include the SDC-MCF10AG, the vendor may assert that their device incorporates a Wi-Fi Certified Embedded Client. The vendor need not be a member of the Wi-Fi Alliance to make this assertion but may not use the "Wi-Fi Certified" logo in conjunction with their device unless they themselves are a Wi-Fi Alliance member.

Device vendors who are members of the Wi-Fi Alliance may also choose to secure a Wi-Fi Alliance certification for their specific device. In this case, the vendor may not leverage the test data or certification for the Summit device. The vendor can, however, use the SDC-MCF10AG test plan as a template, modifying it as necessary for the capabilities of their particular device. By leveraging Summit's "pre-approved" software and test plan, the vendor has a greater assurance that their actual testing will result in an end device certification. Summit will provide consultative services to those vendors who choose to pursue a Wi-Fi Alliance certification for their Summit-equipped devices.

Cisco Compatible Extensions

Summit is a member of the Cisco Compatible Extensions (CCX) program and has a direct license from Cisco for intellectual property relating to the various versions of the CCX specifications. Summit has submitted the SDC-MCF10AG to an authorized CCX test lab and has been found to be fully compliant with version 4 of the CCX specifications for application specific devices (ASDs). For those host devices which include the SDC-MCF10AG, the vendor may assert that their device incorporates a Cisco Compatible radio module.

Device vendors who are members of the CCX program may also choose to secure CCX compliance for their end device. When incorporating the SDC-MCF10AG into their product with the above software version, the vendor need not be a direct licensee for Cisco intellectual property. Rather, in this case the device vendor need only submit their SDC-MCF10AG enabled device for CCX compliance testing to the version 4 test plan for ASDs. By leveraging Summit's "pre-approved" software and by testing to the same plan, the vendor has a greater assurance that their actual testing will result in an end device compliance. Summit will provide consultative services to those vendors who choose to pursue CCX compliance for their Summit-equipped devices.
