Compliance to each of the requirements is described below: Item Modular requirement Yes No Please provide a detailed explanation if the answer is “No.” 1 Have its own RF shielding x 2 Have buffered modulation/data inputs (if such inputs are provided) x 3 The modular transmitter must have its own power supply regulation. x 4 Meet the antenna requirements of section 15.203 x 5 Be tested in a stand-alone configuration, i.e., the antenna, AC or DC power and data input/output lines must be connected to the module but, the module must not be inside another case during testing. x 6 Be labeled with its own FCC ID number, and 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. x 7 The modular transmitter is manufactured so that the user can not influence the operation of the transmitter that will operate outside of the scope of the regulations. x 8 Address compliance with the Commission`s RF exposure limits in Sections 1.1310 and 2.1093. x Note: (1) LMA may be granted when one or more of the requirements in the table above cannot be demonstrated. LMA will also be issued in those instances where applicants can demonstrate that they will retain control over the final installation of the device, such that compliance of the end product is assured. In such cases, an operating condition on the LMA for the module must state that the module is only approved for use when installed in devices produced by a specific manufacturer. When LMA is sought, the application for equipment certification must specifically state how control of the end product into which the module will be installed, and will be maintained, such that full compliance of the end product is always ensured. (2) Please provide Clear and specific instructions describing the conditions, limitations and procedures for third-parties to use and/or integrate the module into a host device. (3) For non-Software Defined Radio transmitter modules where software is used to ensure compliance of the device, technical description of how such control is implemented to ensure prevention of third party modification must be provided (see KDB 594280). Note 1: Compliance of a module in its final configuration is the responsibility of the applicant. A host device will not be considered certified if the instructions regarding antenna configuration provided in the original description, of one or more separately certified modules it contains, were not followed. Example: A separately certified low-power transceiver module using Bluetooth technology which is housed in a desktop computer, laptop or peripheral does not require the overall system to be recertified, if the desktop computer, laptop or peripheral, as a stand-alone unit, complies with all applicable technical standards.

RF Exposure 1.1 Limits for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) Following FCC KDB 447498 D01 “General SAR test exclusion guidance” a) For 100 MHz to 6 GHz and test separation distances ≤ 50 mm, the 1-g and 10-g SAR test exclusion thresholds are determined by the following: [(max. power of channel, including tune-up tolerance, mW) / (min. test separation distance, mm)] · [√f(GHz)] ≤ 3.0 for 1-g SAR, and ≤ 7.5 for 10-g extremity SAR,where • f(GHz) is the RF channel transmit frequency in GHz • Power and distance are rounded to the nearest mW and mm before calculation • The result is rounded to one decimal place for comparison • The values 3.0 and 7.5 are referred to as numeric thresholds in step b) below The test exclusions are applicable only when the minimum test separation distance is ≤ 50 mm, and for transmission frequencies between 100 MHz and 6 GHz. When the minimum test separation distance is < 5 mm, a distance of 5 mm according to 4.1 f) is applied to determine SAR test exclusion. b) For 100 MHz to 6 GHz and test separation distances > 50 mm, the 1-g and 10-g SAR test exclusion thresholds are determined by the following (also illustrated in Appendix B): 1) {[Power allowed at numeric threshold for 50 mm in step a)] + [(test separation distance – 50 mm)·(f(MHz)/150)]} mW, for 100 MHz to 1500 MHz 2) {[Power allowed at numeric threshold for 50 mm in step a)] + [(test separation distance – 50 mm)·10]} mW, for > 1500 MHz and ≤ 6 GHz c) For frequencies below 100 MHz, the following may be considered for SAR test exclusion (also illustrated in Appendix C): 1) For test separation distances > 50 mm and < 200 mm, the power threshold at the Corresponding test separation distance at 100 MHz in step b) is multiplied by [1 + log(100/f(MHz))] 2) For test separation distances ≤ 50 mm, the power threshold determined by the equation in 1) for 50 mm and 100 MHz is multiplied by ½ 1.2 MPE Calculation Formula 푺푺= 푷푷 풐풐풐풐풐풐 푮푮 ퟒퟒퟒퟒ푹푹 ퟐퟐ Where: S = power density in mW/cm 2 P out = output power to antenna in mW Bureau Veritas Consumer Product Services, Inc.

All testing was performed in accordance with ANSI C63.10 2013. The EUT was evaluated in the x, y, and z plane with the loop antenna in Parallel, Perpendicular, and parallel to the ground positions to determine worst case for radiated emission. The worst case plane was y-plane and with the loop antenna in perpendicular position. The worst case results were recorded. We found that the product met the above requirements with no modifications. Test sample was received in good condition. The environmental conditions during testing are documented on the associated data tables. Following bandwidths were used during emissions testing. Frequency RBW VBW 9kHz-150kHz 200Hz 1kHz 150kHz-30MHz 9kHz 30kHz 30MHz-1GHz 120kHz 1MHz The limits in CFR 47, Part 15, Subpart C, paragraph 15.209 (a), are identical to those in RSS- GEN Section 8.9, Table 6, since the measurements are performed in terms of magnetic field strength and converted to electric field strength levels (as reported in the table) using the free space impedance of 377Ω. Spurious Emissions was performed in a Semi-Aniconic Chamber EUT was rotated 360 degrees. For measurements at and above above 30MHz, the measurement antenna was raised and lowered from 1-4 Meters.
