Attestation Statements

October 21, 2003 Federal Communications Commission Authorization and Evaluation Div. Equipment Authorization Branch 7435 Oakland Mills Road Columbia, MD 21046 In re: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. FCC ID.: A3LSPHA680 Request for Confidentiality To Whom It May Concern: In accordance with 0.459 of CFR 47, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. requests confidentiality for the Block Diagram, Schematics, Parts list, Tune-up Procedure, Operational and Circuit Description of the attached test report. These documents contain detailed system and equipment descriptions and related information about the product, which Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. considers to be proprietary, confidential, and a custom design and otherwise, would not release to the general public. Since this design is a basis from which future technological products will evolve, Samsung feels that this information would be of benefit to its competitors, and that the disclosure of the information in these documents would give our competitors an unfair advantage in the market. Sincerely, Wallace Oh Engineering Manager Samsun Samsung Electronics America

C95.1-1992 and had been tested in accordance with the measurement procedures specified in FCC/OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C (2001) and IEEE Std. 1528-200X (Draft 6.5, January 15, 2002). I attest to the accuracy of data. All measurements reported herein were performed by me or were made under my supervision and are correct to the best of my knowledge and belief. I assume full responsibility for the completeness of these measurements and vouch for the qualifications of all persons taking them. Grant Conditions: Power output listed is ERP for Part 22 and EIRP for Part 24. SAR compliance for body- worn operating configuration is based on a separation distance of 1.5 cm between the back of the unit and the body of the user. End-users must be informed of the body-worn operating requirements for satisfying RF exposure compliance. Belt clips or holsters may not contain metallic components.
