The analysis was carried out in accordance with the requirements of FCC 96-326, “Guidelines for Evaluating the Environmental Effects of Radio-Frequency Radiation” in accordance with Supplement C and, using methodologies contained within IEEE P-1528. The Intel Mini PCI Type 3B 802.11a/b Wireless LAN Adapter model WM3B2100A located inside the Asus M3000N notebook was evaluated for compliance to the RF exposure requirements contained in section 2 “Applicable Documents”. The Intel Mini PCI Type 3B 802.11a/b Wireless LAN Adapter model WM3B2100A was operating while located inside the Asus M3000N notebook and was assessed for SAR at the maximum power level set at 16.6dBm while operating with the duty cycle set at 100%. The Intel Mini PCI Type 3B 802.11a/b Wireless LAN Adapter model WM3B2100A operates while located inside the Asus M3000N notebook and utilizes a Mini PCI type B form factor. The Intel Mini PCI Type 3B 802.11a/b Wireless LAN Adapter model WM3B2100A located inside the Asus M3000N notebook has been assessed for body, bystander, and direct contact SAR. Intel provided APREL laboratories with one pre-production model of the Asus M3000N notebook. The M3000N notebook incorporates a diverse dual band PCB antenna as supplied by YAGO (Phicomp). The Tx (main) antenna is housed internally within the laptop chassis and is located near or around the Bottom Right Hand Side of the laptop near the Palm Rest Area, below the keyboard on the main body of the laptop.

For the purpose of this test report the DUI is the Asus notebook model number M3000N. The Intel Mini PCI Type 3B 802.11a/b Wireless LAN Adapter model WM3B2100A located inside the Asus M3000N notebook was evaluated for at the 802.11b standard for both body exposure and direct contact SAR (extremities) at low (ch#1), middle (ch#6) and high (ch#11) for the frequency range of 2412MHz to 2462MHz. Tests were executed at zero mm separation distance, for both direct contact SAR (extremities) and, body analysis. The conservative 10g average for direct contact SAR for the DUI was found to be 1.21 W/kg for the peak RF output power of the mid channel (ch#6, f=2437MHz) at the keyboard up position of DUI. For body SAR analysis the conservative 1g SAR was found to be 0.17 W/kg for the peak RF output power of the Mid channel (ch#06, f=2437MHz) at Right Hand Side position Evaluation data and graphs are presented in this report. All analysis conducted and documented in this report were performed while the Intel Mini PCI Type 3B 802.11a/b Wireless LAN Adapter model WM3B2100A was located inside the Asus notebook model M3000N. For the purpose of the SAR assessment the AC power source was used, and the conservative SAR position and frequency for each of the Test Case Scenarios was reassessed using the battery supply. It was found that the conservative SAR presented in this report was measured while using the AC supply. Based on the measured results and on how the Intel Mini PCI Type 3B 802.11a/b Wireless LAN Adapter model WM3B2100A while located inside the Asus notebook model M3000N will be marketed and used, it is certified that the DUI meets the requirements as set forth in the specifications, for the RF exposure environment contained within this report. The results presented in this report relate only to the sample evaluated. Page 4 of 68 ITLB-ASUS-4019 51 Spectrum WayTel.

Correspondence Reference Number: 25946 731 Confirmation Number: EA765565 Dear Mr. Paxman, Here are the responses to the questions set by the FCC in respect to the above named project. 1) Please clarify probe conversion factor. Probe certification does not agree with value on contour plots. Please provide new results if appropriate. The probe used has two different calibration records, which depend on the amplifier being used at the probe input stage. The amplifier utilized for this assessment was a back up unit, hence the reason why the calibration report CF numbers and the CF numbers used for the assessment do not match. The correct conversion factor is indeed 6.6 as what was used during the SAR assessment. A copy of the probe calibration report has been included for reference. 2) In conjunction with your user instruction on page 68 of 76 "Do not touch or move antenna....". Please instruct the user of the location of the antenna. This has been addressed in a separate response. 3) Justification for system verification. The target values appears to be developed using head liquid while retest was done in body liquid. APREL Laboratories have run extensive experimental assessments using the IEEE dipole to assess and analyze the effects of feeding a dipole primarily matched for head applications but by illuminating a body tissue. The results from these assessments have shown that the SWR, along with RL for the dipole does not change, to a point where it would be detrimental to the efficiency, or appropriate use for the application of validating a system. Having drawn this conclusion experiments utilizing system validation methodologies were run using the dipole in both head and body tissues and the data was compared. The delta between each assessment was within 10% of the target values presented in IEEE. 51 Spectrum Way Tel (613) 820-2730 Email: [email protected] Nepean, Ontario Fax (613) 820-4161 HTTP://www.aprel.com Canada K2R 1E6 Further investigations using XFDTD have been made where both body and head tissues have been used within a high resolution mesh and compared. The results from this investigation support the findings from the experimental activities, and support the deviation which is within the 10% delta which is allowed in line with IEEE-1528. Results show that a body validation run using the dipole as described in IEEE-1528 utilizing body tissue as per the description contained within FCC supplement C is within the allowable tolerance of 10%. Taking all the results into account APREL Laboratories feel that there is no additional need to further justify using the IEEE target values. I trust that the above information should be enough for the FCC to proceed. If you have any further questions please let me know. Regards, Stuart Nicol Director Product Development, Dosimetric R&D.
