October 17, 2007 Mr. Scott Wentworth Retlif Laboratories 101 New Boston Rd. Goffstown, NH 03045 Re: Adjustment of the Model DSP85-CP In-building Amplifier in the Field The CSI Model DSP85-CP In-Building Amplifier offers only adjustment of gain (below its factory-set maximum gain level) to the technician during installation and maintenance activities. This adjustment is dependent on the physical environment in which the amplifier is to be installed and is described in the Installation and Users Manual. This is the only adjustment accessible without opening the amplifier. Frequency response and gain thresholds are factory set and in no circumstance are they to be adjusted in the field.

Evaluation of the CSI Model DSP85-CP BDA For Compliance with FCC Guidelines For Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields 17 October 2007 General The CSI Model DSP85-CP Bi-directional amplifier is considered to be a dual-band “mobile” device operating in both the Cellular Service authorized under subpart H of part 22 and in the Personal Communication Service authorized under part 24. As such, the equipment is required to be evaluated for RF exposure if operated below 1.5 GHz with an effective radiated power (ERP) of 1.5 watts or more or if operated above 1.5 GHz with an effective radiated power (ERP) of 3.0 watts or more, as defined in 2.1091 of FCC rules. Downlink For the downlink portion of the Model DSP85-CP BDA, the maximum rated output power is +27dbm (500 mW) in the Cellular Band (<1.5 GHz) and 27 dBm (500 mW) in the PCS band (>1.5 GHz). As stated in the Model DSP85-CP Manual, the maximum authorized indoor antenna gain is 3 dBi, corresponding to a typical Multi-Band Omni- Directional antenna. The Table below shows the results of the calculated ERP for both cases, neglecting cable losses. Frequency Power Out Ant Gain EIRP ERP Limit 869-894 MHz 27 dBm 3 dBi 30 dBm 609 mW 1.5 W 1930-1990 MHz 27 dBm 3 dBi 30 dBm 609 mW 3.0 W In both the above cases the ERP is well below the allowable limits excluding the downlink from routine evaluation. The Cautions in the Model DSP85-CP manual clearly define the antenna selection and installation criteria in order to maintain a minimum 20-centimeter separation. Uplink For the downlink portion of the Model DSP85-CP BDA, the maximum rated output power is +27dbm (500 mW) in the Cellular Band (<1.5 GHz) and 27 dBm (500 mW) in the PCS band (>1.5 GHz). As stated in the Model DSP85-CP Manual, the maximum authorized outdoor antenna gain is 14 dBi, corresponding to a typical Multi-Element Yagi-Directional antenna. The Table below shows the results of the calculated ERP for both cases, neglecting cable losses. Frequency Power Out Ant Gain EIRP ERP Limit 824-849 MHz 27 dBm 14 dBi 41 dBm 7630 mW 1.5 W 1850-1910 MHz 27 dBm 14 dBi 41 dBm 7630 mW 3.0 W As shown in the above table, the Cellular and PCS band exceeds the allowable limit and must be evaluated for minimum separation distances in order to comply with the exposure limits of 1.1310 of the FCC rules. Using the guidelines in FCC OET Bulletin 65 and Supplement C, the power density at a reasonable distance from the maximum gain antenna was calculated. The minimum safe distance was also determined based on the uncontrolled exposure limits defined in Table 1B of FCC rules 1.1311. The following assumptions are made concerning these calculations: Cellular Band PCS Band Po = 500 mw average 500 mw Cable Loss = 0 dB 0 dB Ant Gain = 14 dBi 14 dBi Frequency = 836.5 MHz 1920 MHz Main Beam (worst-case) Main Beam Rooftop 100% reflection Rooftop Reasonable Distance = 4 feet (120 cm) 4 feet Therefore, from OET Bulletin 65, S = (PG)/4πR 2 or S = EIRP/4πR 2 For 100% reflection, a doubling of the field strength can be expected. The above equation can be modified to, S = (2) 2 PG/4πR 2 = EIRP/πR 2 Solving for S at a distance of 4 feet (120 cm) gives, S = (500) (25)/ π (120) 2 = 0.27 mw/cm 2 From FCC rules 1.1311, Table 1B, the allowable limit for uncontrolled exposure is f(MHz) / 1500. At 836.5 MHz this corresponds to a level of 0.56 mw/cm 2 . For frequencies above 1500 MHz the limit is 1.0 mw/cm 2 . The calculated value of 0.27 is below both these limits thereby showing compliance under worst-case operating conditions. As in the case of the downlink, the Cautions in the Model DSP85-CP manual clearly define the antenna selection and installation criteria in order to maintain a conservative 4- foot separation.

Testing was performed at both the low band edge and high band edge of each pass band. The output of each signal generator was adjusted so that the two output fundamental frequencies were equal in magnitude. Testing was performed for GSM, CDMA & TDMA Modulation types. At the maximum specified input power levels all intermodulation products were at -13dBm or below for each modulation. See attached test data. OCCUPIED BANDWIDTH Measurement Procedure: For Occupied Bandwidth, measurements were made to compare the input signal to the output signal. The signal generator output was connected to the spectrum analyzer. A TDMA modulation signal was then applied to the carrier. Waveforms were then noted on an X-Y plot. Next, the signal generator was connected to the EUT and the output of the EUT was connected to the spectrum analyzer. The output waveform after amplification was then compared to the original input signal to ensure that no significant differences occurred between the input signal and the amplified signal. Testing was performed at one frequency within each passband (uplink and downlink). Testing was repeated with GSM and CDMA Modulation. See Occupied Bandwidth Data. An explanation of the data is as follows: There are two signals superimposed on each plot, one signal is the waveform before modulation, the other is the modulated carrier. In each case the center of the grid shows a narrowband signal projecting out from the center of the modulation envelope. This signal is actually the stored unmodulated signal. Test Report No. R-4882N-1 FCC ID: NVRCSI-DSP85-CP SPURIOUS EMISSIONS AT ANTENNA TERMINALS Measurement Procedure: The signal generator output was connected in turn to the uplink and downlink input ports of the EUT. The input power level was at the maximum level which was ascertained during the Power Output test. A spectrum analyzer was connected to the output of the EUT. The input test frequencies used were three frequencies (low, mid & high) within each passband (cell & pcs uplink and downlink). The level of any spurious emission was recorded. Testing was performed in the frequency range of 30MHz to 20GHz. Testing was performed for GSM, CDMA & TDMA modulation types. The spurious emissions limit is -13dBm as specified in FCC Parts 22 & 24. All emissions were below the specified -13dBm limit. See attached test data. EFFECTIVE RADIATED POWER OF SPURIOUS RADIATION Measurement Procedure: The test sample was placed on a 80cm high wooden test stand which was located 3 meters from the test antenna on an FCC listed test site. A signal generator was connected to the input of the amplifier. The signal generator output was set to provide the input power level necessary to achieve maximum output power of the amplifier at 3 frequencies (low, mid & high) within each passband (cell & pcs uplink and downlink). The effective radiated power of each out of band spurious emission was measured using the substitution method specified in ANSI/TIA-603-C-2004. The frequency range of the test was 30MHz – 20GHz. The limit for out of band spurious emissions is -13dBm as specified in Parts 22 & 24. All emissions were below the specified - 13dBm limit. See attached test data. RF POWER OUTPUT A signal generator was connected in turn to the uplink and downlink input ports of the test sample. The signal generator was set to maximum input rating and the amplifier was operating at maximum gain. The maximum single channel output power for both the cell and pcs band uplink and downlink was measured with a spectrum analyzer connected to the output port. The measured output power matched the manufacturer’s rated output power . See attached test data. Test Report No. R-4882N-1 FCC ID: NVRCSI-DSP85-CP FREQUENCY STABILITY MEASUREMENTS The test sample was placed into a temperature chamber with AC input power supplied through a variable power source. A signal generator was used to provide the input signal and the output was measured with a frequency counter. With the test sample operating at maximum output power the test sample’s output frequency was measured and recorded at the extremes of the temperature range and at 10 degree increments from -30 degrees C to +50 degrees C while the AC input voltage was varied from 85 to 115% of nominal. The output frequency for both the cell and pcs band uplink and …
