5015 B. U. Bowman Dr. Buford, GA 30518 June 19, 2015 ACS TCB 5015 B.U. Bowman Drive Buford, GA 30518 Re: FCC ID: R7PEC6R2S3 To Whom It May Concern: The following application is submitted on behalf of our client, Landis+Gyr Technology, Inc., for evaluation of their model GPR2 for certification under FCC Part 15.247 and 15.249. The GPR2 is a battery-powered 2-way gas frequency hopping module that operates in the frequency range of 902 – 928 MHz. The GPR2 is designed to provide two-way communications within the Landis+Gyr Gridstream RF network, and can communicate with electric meters, routers, mesh extenders or radios on distribution automation devices. The GPR2 operates utilizing a high power frequency hopping mode under FCC Part 15.247 and low power single channel mode under FCC Part 15.249. The GPR2 was tested in full to the requirements of the aforementioned rules and was found to be in compliance. Sincerely, Sam Wismer Vice President, Technology Advanced Compliance Solutions, Inc.

30000 Mill Creek Avenue, Suite 100 | Alpharetta, GA 30022 Tel: +1 678 258 1637 | Fax: +1 678 258 1681 To:File From:Richard Timko Subject:GPR2, FCC ID: R7PEC6R2S3 Modular Approval RequestJune 18, 2015 Scope 47CFR 15.212 communicates requirements for products requesting modular approval. In particular, eight requirements are enumerated along with a request that each of the eight be explained for any product requesting such approval. It is the purpose of this document to respond to those eight requirements in regard to the Landis+Gyr product: GPR2. Modular Approval Requirements 1.1 RF Shielding The GPR2 module is self-shielding and is not dependent on any component or characteristic of the device into which it is embedded. Shielding is accomplished through a combination of metallic self-shielding components, copper planes, guards, and vias in the PCB. The result is a design that has been proven to be neither sensitive to outside influence nor capable of introducing interference into outside components. 1.2Buffered Modulation / Data Inputs The GPR2 module does not have external modulation or data inputs. Rather, the RF sections are driven by an on-board microprocessor which directly controls the RF data lines and operates so as to not allow excessive modulation. 1.3Power Supply Regulation The GPR2 module uses linear, low-dropout regulators to provide all the electronics with a supply that is fixed, even when the input voltage is varied. 1.4Antenna Requirement The GPR2 module utilizes an internal, integrated, inverted-F antenna. 1.5Stand-Alone Testing All testing on the GPR2 module was conducted standalone. No shields or enclosures were used, other than those fully integrated into the modules themselves. No ferrites were used on data or power lines during testing. These devices are DC powered, and exceed applicable conducted emission requirements. 1.6Labeling As indicated, each GPR2 module will have its own FCC ID label. In addition, devices into which they are placed will have labels indicating that this module is contained within. Exact text will be as specified in 47CFR 15.212. 1.7Specific Rules and Operating Requirements The GPR2 module complies with all pertinent rules for its section. 1.8RF Exposure Requirements The GPR2 module complies with all exposure requirements. As a component used in the Utility industry, this product is not intended for use near human operators. 2.0In Reference to 15.212(b) The GPR2 module is always professionally installed and is not sold to the general public. This module undergoes continuous, rigorous testing to ensure that full compliance is always maintained. Sincerely, Title: Quality Engineer
