American Telecommunications Certification Body Inc. 6731 Whittier Ave, McLean, VA 22101 October 5, 2004 RE: FCC ID: AK8PCG1H1L_ATCB001764 Attention: Yoshiko Mizuta I have a few comments on this Application. Please note that further comments may arise in response to answers provided to the questions below. 1. Please note that the FCC has stated that the conducted power variance between the SAR and EMC report is not to be greater than 5%. Please note that the highest conducted power listed in the EMC report is 20.38dBm while the highest conducted power in the SAR report is 22.6dBm. This is 2.2dB difference or about a 30+% variance in power between the SAR and EMC reports. Please test the device EMC and SAR at levels within 5% of each other. Dennis Ward mailto:[email protected] The items indicated above must be submitted before processing can continue on the above referenced application. Failure to provide the requested information may result in application termination. Correspondence should be considered part of the permanent submission and may be viewed from the Internet after a Grant of Equipment Authorization is issued. Please do not respond to this correspondence using the email reply button. In order for your response to be processed expeditiously, you must submit your documents through the AmericanTCB.com website. Also, please note that partial responses increase processing time and should not be submitted. Any questions about the content of this correspondence should be directed to the sender.

The order requires routine SAR evaluation prior to equipment authorization of portable transmitter devices, including portable telephones. For consumer products, the applicable limit is 1.6 mW/g for an uncontrolled environment and 8.0 mW/g for an occupational/controlled environment as recommended by the ANSI/IEEE standard C95.1-1992. According to the Supplement C of OET Bulletin 65 “Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guide-lines for Human Exposure to Radio frequency Electromagnetic Fields", released on Jun 29, 2001 by the FCC, the device should be evaluated at maximum output power (radiated from the antenna) under “worst-case” conditions for normal or intended use, incorporating normal antenna operating positions, device peak performance frequencies and positions for maximum RF energy coupling. 1 Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is a measure of the rate of energy absorption due to exposure to an RF transmitting source (wireless portable device). 2 IEEE/ANSI Std. C95.1-1992 limits are used to determine compliance with FCC ET Docket 93-62. SECTION 4 : Dosimetry assessment setup These measurements were performed with the automated near-field sca…
