It detects ultra-wideband (UWB) pulses emitted by wireless tags (Ubitags), allowing the 3D position of the tags to be found. The use of UWB technology enables greater positioning accuracy than other wireless technologies, because it is much less susceptible to multipath interference effects. Applications of the system include healthcare, workplace productivity, security, retail management and manufacturing. This document describes the features and specifications of the UBISENSOR30V1, important regulatory information concerning its use, and details on how to diagnose potential problems. Regulatory Information for the United States of America The UBISENSOR30V1 is approved under Part 15.249 of the FCC rules: This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: — Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. — Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. — Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. — Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Changes or modifications to the equipment not expressly approved by the party responsible for the grant of equipment authorization issued by the FCC could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment under the grant of equipment authorization. IMPORTANT NOTE: FCC Radiation Exposure Statement: This device complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. The device has been evaluated as safe to use at any separation from the person.

27 th March 2023 Re: SAR / RF exposure exemption for SEASENSOR33 To Whom It May Concern: We have prepared below a SAR / RF exposure exemption analysis for the Ubisense UBISENSOR30V1 device (FCC ID: SEASENSOR33). Background The UBISENSOR30V1 is a composite device consisting of a proprietary Part 15.249 conventional FM radio transceiver operating in the range 2401.75- 2481.75MHz, and associated digital circuitry. The transceiver is connected via an antenna switch to two internal, permanently-affixed antennas. Only one of the antennas can be active at any one time. For RF exposure purposes, the device is being certified as a portable device, in the General Population exposure environment. Single source RF exemption Per §1.1307(b)(3)(i)(A), if the available maximum time-averaged power of the device is no more than 1mW, then the RF source is exempt from SAR / RF exposure analysis, regardless of the rule part or device classification. In the case of the UBISENSOR30V1 device, the maximum time-averaged e.i.r.p. of the device is: e.i.r.p.(dBm) = -4.3dBm = 0.4mW This is below the 1mW exemption threshold, and therefore the device is exempt from further SAR / RF exposure analysis by virtue of its low-output- power characteristics.
