Radio Frequency Exposure 12.1 Applicable Standards The measurements shown in this test report were made in accordance with the procedures given in FCC Part 2 (Section 2.1093) LIMIT KDB 447498 D01 § 4.3(a) For 100 MHz to 6 GHz and test separation distances ≤ 50 mm, the 1-g and 10-g SAR test exclusion thresholds are determined by the following: [(max. power of channel, including tune-up tolerance, mW) / (min. test separation distance, mm)] · [√f(GHz)] ≤ 3.0 for 1-g SAR, and ≤ 7.5 for 10-g extremity SAR, where *f(GHz) is the RF channel transmit frequency in GHz * Power and distance are rounded to the nearest mW and mm before calculation *The result is rounded to one decimal place for comparison *The values 3.0 and 7.5 are referred to as numeric thresholds in step b) below The test exclusions are applicable only when the minimum test separation distance is ≤ 50 mm, and for transmission frequencies between 100 MHz and 6 GHz. When the minimum test separation distance is < 5 mm, a distance of 5 mm according to 4.1 f) is applied to determine SAR test exclusion 12.2 EUT Specification Frequency band (Operating) 2.4GHz: 2402MHz ~ 2480MHz Bluetooth: 2402MHz ~ 2480MHz Device category Portable (<20cm separation) Mobile (>20cm separation) Exposure classification Occupational/Controlled exposure General Population/Uncontrolled exposure Antenna diversity Single antenna Multiple antennas Tx diversity Rx diversity Tx/Rx diversity Evaluation applied MPE Evaluation* SAR Evaluation N/A Remark: 1. The maximum output power is 0.32 dBm (1.076mW) at 2402MHz (with 3.72 dBi antenna gain.) 2. DTS device is not subject to routine RF evaluation; MPE estimate is used to justify the compliance. 3. For mobile or fixed location transmitters, no SAR consideration applied. CERPASS TECHNOLOGY CORP. Report No.: 21090136-TRFCC01 Cerpass Technology Corp. Issued Date : Dec. 24, 2021 T-FD-506-0 Ver 1.5 Page No. : 56 of 56 FCC ID. : ZHK-HS34 12.3 TEST RESULTS According to the KDB447498: The SAR test exclusion thresholds Level: [(max. power of channel, including tune-up tolerance, mW) /(min. test separation distance, mm)] * sqrt (freq. in GHz) < 3 Calculation Channel Frequency (MHz) Max. Conducted output power (dBm) Max. Tune up power (dBm) Max. Tune up power (mW) Distance (mm) SAR test exclusion thresholds (mW) 2402-2480 0.32 0.82 1.21 5 10.00 Since the source-based time-averaging conducted output power is well below the SAR low threshold level, so the EUT is considered to comply with SAR requirement without testing ----------THE END OF REPORT----------
