P R O D U C T P R O F I L E Amtech Systems DivisionAmtech Systems Division Features •Fixed reader/programmer board set designed for integration into OEM controller or as option to Intermec 2100 UAP •Provides RFID data collection integrated into local area network when configured as option to Intermec 2100 UAP •Spread-spectrum frequency- hopping RFID reader/ programmer board set coexists with RF data collection network •Wired or wireless connection through 2100 UAP •Rugged industrial environment design •Unlicensed RFID readers and tags using Intellitag 500 series microwave OEM products can be integrated for use in applications that require read ranges up to 2.5 meters (8.2 ft) Intellitag 500 reader/programmer board sets are offered for integration into radio frequency identification (RFID) solutions requiring read range, multitag sort, read/write, and memory capacity not provided by older, less flexible proximity technology. The fixed reader/programmer board set is designed as an option for the Intermec 2100 Universal Access Point (UAP), but it may be integrated into other microcontroller-based systems. Readers can be programmed for read only or read/write operation. A powerful anticollision algorithm allows tags up to 50 tags per second to be scanned, regardless of the number of tags in the read zone. Intermec's Amtech Systems Division, with over a decade of success designing, producing, installing, and supporting RFID solutions worldwide, is developing a range of Intellitag 500 RFID inserts, tags, scanners, and programmer subsystems for availability beginning in 1999. These products are available to Intermec systems integration partners in established transportation and security-access RFID applications, as well as growing applications in supply- chain management, retail operations, manufacturing, logistics, health care, and many more.

Dear Mr. Chan, Since Mr. Dichoso requested the response to the information request about RF exposure issues to be kept in the RF Exposure Info folder, I am generating this pdf file and uploading it as exhibit instead of responding via the email. 1) We agree with your assessment in item one. Our compliance should be through the calculations and measures we took as explained below. 2) As the test report shows, the maximum output power was 427 mW. The nominal antenna gain is 5.5 dBi at the maximum point (90 degrees to the antenna surface). With the distance of 20 cm we used in our warnings the peak power density can be found using the formula P D = P T * G T / 4πd 2 . Using the above given numbers, the power density turns out to be 0.1 mW/cm 2 , which is comfortably below the limit for uncontrolled environments. Considering this is the peal power density and the average power density will be much lower during normal operation conditions and it is also valid for only the peak direction of the antenna gain, the harmlessness of our product becomes obvious. Therefore, we believe the 20 cm distance warning to the installers and users should provide more than adequate protection. As you can see in the new uploaded Manual Supplement which is included with each unit for installers and operators, the warnings have been clearly stated. 3) The product will always be installed by trained Intermec personnel or trained resellers and never by the users. Therefore it is considered a “professional installation” category product. Again as you can see in the revised Manual Supplement installers as well as operators are warned about the effects of RF exposure, despite the relatively low power density. I hope, the answers above satisfy your requirements. Please feel free to contact us, if you have any further questions. Sincerely, Kursat Eroglu, MSEE Sr. EMC Engineer Intermec Technologies Corp.

March 20, 2000 Dear Mr. Chen, Since Mr. Dichoso requested I place our response into the RF Expo folder, I am also including this letter. I would like to apologize for the misunderstanding in our recent response. Due to a misinterpretation on our part, we placed the wrong distances in our Manuals. I have corrected those and revised the warnings for installers and users with the 20 cm warning. As I explained before, this product is intended for industrial controlled environment installations. It will only be installed by trained Intermec personnel. Our training guidelines include RF safety issues such as keeping the installers and users away from the antenna. Please let me know, if you have any further questions regarding this product. Sincerely, Kursat Eroglu, MSEE Sr. EMC Engineer

2.4 GHz Antenna Board Design 2.4 GHz Antenna Background Plane

Antenna Part Number: 07467-01 Antenna Gain:6 dBi Antenna Connector:SMA (*) (*) To comply with the FCC’s and Industry Canada’s unique connector requirements, the antenna contains an RFID tag directly wired to the antenna connector. When the transceiver module is activated, it transmits a signal into the antenna cable checking for the correct code from the RFID tag on the antenna. If the module does not receive the correct code back, it will not transmit under any circumstance. This feature prevents users from using antennas or cables other than the Intermec specified, certified antennas and cables.

The product passed all tests with comfortable margins beyond test instrument tolerances. 1.2 Product Description Model 2100 with 2.4 GHz RFID module is an RFID configuration of our Model 2100 Universal Access Point, which contains a 2.4 GHz RFID reader module. The module uses 2.4 GHz spread spectrum signals to interrogate, and program RFID tags. The module has a sheet metal enclosure inside the v-cast metal enclosure of Model 2100. It uses two 6 dB patch antennas alternatively. Detailed pictures of the product and the circuit boards are in the attaced exhibits. Power levels, frequency ranges and channel characteristics are not user adjustable. 1.3 Antenna System Model 2100 with 2.4 GHz RFID module uses two 6 dB patch antennas alternatively for spacial and polarization diversity. The antennas are connected through a TNC connector to the transmitter. Compliance with part 15.203 is achieved by an integrated RFID tag on the antenna, which identifies the antenna and is hardwired to the transmission cable. When the product is turned on it transmits an interrogation signal to the antenna. If it cannot identify the antenna through the transmission cable, it will not operate. Since the identification is made through the transmission cable only, no other antennas can be used with the product. 1.4 Class A Justification Intermec serves industrial customers such as warehouses, factories, storage facilities etc. Since this ruggedized product is used in these environments it falls under Part 15 Class A for digital emissions. 1.5 Related Submittal(s)/Grant(s) The same design of this transceiver using 2.4 GHz was certified by the FCC to IBM in 1997 under the FCC identifier ANORFID-2000.
