12 July 2007 Attention: Application Examiner Re: Request for confidentiality Applicant: International Broadband Electric Communications, Inc. (IBEC, Inc.) FCC ID: U9TBRUG320007 To whom it may concern, Request is hereby submitted by IBEC, Inc. to withhold permanently from public review certain portions of the application for equipment certification for the referenced FCC identifiers. This request for confidentiality is made pursuant to 47 CFR 0.457(d) and 0.459 of the FCC Rules. In particular, the following sections of the application are to be kept permanently confidential: • Schematics • User Manual • Detailed Block diagrams • Detailed Operational/Functional Description • Internal photos Rationale for request for confidentiality: IBEC, Inc. has invested considerable time and materials in research and development to produce the referenced product. Disclosure of the permanently confidential portions of this application to competitors would not only give them significant competitive advantages in developing similar products, but would also disclose successful implementation of unpublished, leading edge technology developed by us. Finally, this product is available only to customers and installers with whom we have in place a non-disclosure agreement(NDA). The fee for confidentiality has been submitted along with the fee for certification. If you have questions or need further information, please contact the undersigned. Sincerely, Brent R. Zitting Vice President of Engineering IBEC, Inc. 285 Dunlop Blvd. SW, Suite K Huntsville, AL 35824-1103

BRU Not Available Overhead Coupler IBEC, Inc. OHC18K Not Available Testing start date: May 7 th , 2007 EUT receive condition: Good Description of EUT provided by Intertek: The BRU is an integrated, weatherized unit that receives BPL signals in one mode and transmits those signasl in a different mode. Description of EUT exercising: The EUT was exercised by directing a manufacturer-determined data stream through the EUT that best simulates typical use of the equipment. The amount of data and data rate determined by the manufacturer was noted as ‘packet flooding’. Data Duty Factor Requirement: The EUT was tested in situ with maximum RF injection duty factors achieving 50 bursts per second, exceeding the minimum 20 bursts per second threshold required for the use of quasi-peak detection methods.
