NVRCSIDRACELAAWSAWS Repeater

CSI-DRACELA-PR-AW CS12-560-419 WARNING: This is NOT a CONSUMER device. It is designed for installation by FCC LICENSEES AND QUALIFIED INSTALLERS. You MUST have an FCC LICENSE or express consent of an FCC Licensee to operate this device. Unauthorized use may result in significant forfeiture penalties, including penalties in excess of $100,000 for each continuing violation. The Installation height of the antenna for AWS band 1700/2100 MHz operations is limited to 10 meters above ground for compliance with FCC Regulation Section 27.50 Important Safety Information Antennas used for the purpose of radiating signals indoors are limited to a maximum gain of 3 dBi. The outdoor antenna used for the purpose of communicating to the wireless infrastructure is limited to -2 dBi, or any combination of gain and loss that equates to -2 dBi at output. Each antenna must be positioned to observe minimum separation requirements from all users and bystand- ers. The following guidelines should be used when considering separation distances. INDOOR antennas must be placed such that, under normal conditions, personnel cannot come within 20 cm (~8.0 in.) from any inside antenna. Adhering to this minimum separation will ensure that the employee or bystander cannot exceed RF exposures beyond the maximum permissible limit as defined by section 1.1310 i.e. limits for General Population/Uncontrolled Exposure. OUTDOOR antenna must be positioned such that, under normal conditions, personnel cannot approach closer than 120 cm. (~4 ft.). A non- directional antenna having a maximum gain of -2 dBi is used, precautions should be taken to prevent personnel from routinely passing closer than specified. Radio and Television Interference NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is oper- ated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interfer- ence at his own expense. Changes and Modifications not expressly approved by Cellular Specialties, Inc. can void your authority to operate this equipment under Federal Communications Commission’s rules. Cellular Specialties, Inc. grants to the purchaser a fully paid license, at no additional charge, to copy or otherwise reproduce all or portions of the product documentation. Such reproduction shall be for the purchasers use only.

Verizon Wireless Headquarters Network Operations 1515 E. Woodfield Road Suite 1400 Schaumburg, IL 60173 August 19, 2015 Federal Communications Commission Office of Engineering Technology Washington, DC RE: Permit But Ask for a Part 20 Industrial Booster To whom it may concern: The subject device, an AWS repeater with FCC ID number of NVRCSIACELAAWS, operates within the AWS-1 and AWS-3 bands of 1710-1780 MHz in the uplink direction and 2110-2180 MHz in the downlink direction. These frequency ranges are commonly referred to by the block designations AWS A through J. This repeater will be acquired directly by Verizon from its manufacturer. It will be installed by contractors under the direct supervision of Verizon and will only be operated in the specific spectrum blocks licensed to Verizon in the area in which it is operating. As the project manager, I am supervising the deployment of these repeaters. Please contact me if additional information is needed. Sincerely, John Pawlik Project Manager, Network Operations [email protected] (773) 405-0206

PD = OP + AG (4 x π x d²) Evaluation of the CSI Model CSI‐DRACELA‐PR‐AW Repeater For Compliance with FCC Guidelines For Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields 25 April 2013 General The CSI Model CSI‐DRACELA‐PR‐AW Repeater is considered to be a “mobile” device operating in the Cellular Service authorized under part 27. 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 CSI‐DRACELA‐PR‐AW, the maximum rated output power is +30.26dBm (1062 mW) in the 2100 MHz band (>1.5 GHz). As stated in the Model CSI‐DRACELA‐PR‐AW 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, neglecting cable losses. Frequency Power Out Ant Gain EIRP ERP Limit 2110-2180 MHz 30.26dBm 3dBi 33.26dBm 1292mW 3.0 W As shown in the above table, the level is below the allowable limit excluding the downlink from routine evaluation. Uplink For the uplink portion of the Model CSI‐DRACELA‐PR‐AW, the maximum rated output power as limited by AGC is +32dBm (1585mW) in the 1700 MHz Band (>1.5 GHz). As stated in the Model CSI‐DRACELA‐PR‐AW Manual, the maximum authorized outdoor antenna gain including cable losses is -2 dBi, corresponding to a typical Omni- Directional antenna. The Table below shows the results of the calculated ERP for this case. Frequency Power Out Ant Gain EIRP ERP Limit 1710-1780 MHz 32dBm -2 dBi 30dBm 610mW 3.0 W As shown in the above table, the level is below the allowable limit excluding the uplink from routine evaluation.
