Using separation distance of 5 mm with the formula above results 383.248.2 5 9        mm mW According to KDB 447498, if the separation distance is less than 5mm, then 5mm separation distance is used to calculate the RF exposure. Thus BLE121LR meets the SAR exclusion criteria with 0 mm separation and SAR evaluation is not needed.

The hopping was stopped and the EUT was configured into the wanted channel. Normal modulation and duty cycle was applied in all the tests. Duty cycle of the EUT was measured and it was 63.6% which is the highest possible duty cycle that the EUT is capable of. Following channels were used during the tests when the hopping was stopped: Channel Low (Ch 0) = 2402 MHz Channel Mid (Ch 20) = 2442 MHz Channel High (Ch 39) = 2480 MHz Test Facility Testing Location / address: FCC registration number: 90598 SGS Fimko Ltd S‰rkiniementie 3 FI-00210, HELSINKI FINLAND Testing Location / address: FCC registration number: 178986 Industry Canada registration number: 8708A-2 SGS Fimko Ltd Karakaarenkuja 4 FI-02610, ESPOO FINLAND Reference number: 276131-2 Page 7 of 42 Conducted Output Power Test TEST RESULTS Maximum Peak Conducted Output Power Standard: ANSI C63.10 (2009) Tested by: NKO Date: 14.5.2014 Humidity: 22 % Temperature: 21.5 C Measurement uncertainty  2,87dB Level of confidence 95 % (k = 2) FCC Rule: 15.247(b)(3) For systems using digital modulation in the 2400-2483.5 MHz bands the limit is 1 Watt.
