Page 1 of 1 FCC ID: ALH442000 IC ID: 282D-442000 CT Project: 1460001 From: Shawn McMillen Date: 06/26/2014 1) In the SAR report you have several items that are over the 7.0mW/g occupational. Please read part of the KDB 865664. CT - Please see updated SAR report with additional plots. 2) Per 15.247(d) conducted spurious emission need to demonstrate that emissions are attenuated below the carrier by 20dB in a 100KHz RBW. The conducted spurious emission plots do not appear to show this. In addition it is unclear as to why the display line is set to -53dBm where this measurement is meant to be relative not absolute. Also if a filter was used, which probably doesn’t need to be since the carrier is so low, this would need to be documented and the level of the carrier would need to be reported per 100kHz. CT – The high pass filtered used is documented in the test equipment utilized section of the Test in question. The filter is also listed in the test equipment utilized list on pg. 29. Using the band edge test plots on pg. 16 and pg. 17, which are taken at 100kHz RBW, it is easily determined the conducted spurious emissions are well below the -20dBc limit. The -53dBm display line is for operator reference only and does not determine compliance in this test. 3) Require clarification. In the test report the 20dBc at the band edges reported on pages 16 and 17 were performed radiated whereas the spurious emission per 15.247(d) in 100KHz were performed conducted. Please explain the rational for the different approaches. CT – As stated within the Test Procedure (pg. 15 and pg. 10), the measurements were performed conducted for both mentioned measurements. 4) The section containing the dwell time does not sufficiently provide enough information that the EUT meets the rules. There is no calculation of the dwell time nor the amount of pulses within a period of time. CT – The Test Report shows the timing of the hopping frequency. Using the customer’s pseudo random timing details it is shown that the device complies to the .4 second specification. 5) The EMC report is missing the Canadian cross reference requirements. CT – Cross Reference sheet has been supplied 6) The information that the Bluetooth meets the pseudo random requirements needs to be provided. CT – Please see updated Circuit Description Exhibit. 7) The operational description of the Bluetooth indicates that it has extended data rates in addition to GFSK. Only GFSK was tested. CT – Additional plots have been added to the test report to cover all data rates. Response by: Compliance Testing LLC Submitted by: CTL Date: 7/2/14

Page 1 of 1 FCC ID: ALH442000 IC ID: 282D-442000 CT Project: 1460001 From: Shawn McMillen Date: 06/23/2014 Curious as to why only the two worst case scans were provided in the SAR report for head and body conditions. CT - The FCC and IC require only the highest SAR value plot for each exposure configuration (Head or body, modulation, frequency band). The NX-5400-K2 has only two exposure configurations: 1) Head, FM, 800 MHz and 2) Body, FM, 800 MHz. These are the two plots that I have included in the report. This is justified in KDB 865664 D02 page 5, section 2.3 paragraph 8. This is a composite filing. Please indicate where the test report, documentation, information etc can be located for the Bluetooth. CT - The Test Report was accidentally left out of the upload and will be provided. The radiated test setup photos for part 90 show the EUT with an antenna installed however the block diagram in the EMC report demonstrates a load was used. Please indicate if a load was used per TIA- 603. CT - The test was performed using the manufacturer supplied antenna as it is impedance matched with the device, it is the worst case measurement and still remains compliant. Is the 6.25kHz channel spacing exempt from audio and filter response measurements? CT - This radio is digitally filtered, therefore it’s modulation curves are almost identical regardless of the emissions which is evident by the modulation tests already performed within the report.
