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 pro-vide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated 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 interference at his own expense. The antennas used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least following distance from all persons and must not be located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. 68.6cm distance for the Dish Antenna 136.9cm distance for the Grid Antenna INDUSTRY CANADA This Class A digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003. Cet appareil numérique de la classe A est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful communication. The device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below and having a maximum gain of 28dBi. Antennas not included in this list or having a gain greater than 28dBi are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms This device must be professionally installed and is designed strictly for for outdoor point- to-point wireless links.

FCC: 1. The user manual should include a statement that installation should only be for point-to-point. Please see revised manual 2. There appears to be a typo in the radiated emissions section of the test report. The raw amplitude is stated as being measured at 3m but there is also a distance correction factor. Please correct this typo. Measurements were taken at 1m meter. The typo has been corrected, please see revised report. IC: 1.The SA settings for the 6dB and 99% Occupied bandwidth are incorrect. The 6 dB bandwidth needs to be measured with a RBW that is close to 1% of the emissions bandwidth. The 99% bandwidth needs to be measured with a RBW that is close to 1% of the selected span without being below 1%. Corrected, please see revised report. 2.Please clarify how the receiver spurs measurements were performed (i.e. conducted or radiated)? It appears to have been performed radiated. Were the antenna correction factors and cable loss taken into consideration? The limits stated in the standard are in terms of field strength at 3m. However, the SA units are in terms of dBm. Please clarify how the determination was made that the emissions seen pass the field strength limits. There is also what appears to be a limit line on the plots. Please clarify what this line is. Corrected, please see revised report. 3.The RF evaluation in Annex A of the Technical Brief Cover Sheet should state General Public Use. The standard used for evaluation is also incorrect. The RF value should also state 1 mW/cm2. Corrected, please see revised annex A. 4.Reference source not found error on page 15 of 84 of the test report. Corrected, please see revised report. 5. Page 15 of 84 also states that the emissions met class B. However, the tabulated data seems to show class A limits. Please update the test report. Corrected, please see revised report.
