                                       Narrative Statement

This extension of previously granted STA call sign WM9XAX (File number: 1686-EX-ST-2017)
is necessary to continue work developing an all outdoor microwave radio with an integrated flat
panel antenna that would operate in the “lightly licensed” 70/80/90 Ghz spectrum. This solution
in this high bandwidth, short distance spectrum is perfect for a point to point hop from one
building to another to support 5G in urban cores.

T-Mobile already holds a nationwide license for use of these bands (Callsign: WQWZ779) and
operates many links which were registered through the third party database manager system.
Thus T-Mobile is familiar with the use of this band. T-Mobile also acknowledges its obligation
under an experimental STA to neither cause harmful interference to and accept harmful
interference from, any registered link.

The instant STA is necessary to continue current testing and is needed as the antenna being used
for testing purposes does not meet the sidelobe suppression requirements in 47 CFR 101.115.
That rule requires use of an ETSI Class 3 or Class 4 antenna. The Huber and Suhner
SENCITY®Matrix 70/80 antenna (Model #: 1378.99.0002) meets the ETSI Class 2 certification.

T-Mobile does not anticipate the need for continued testing beyond the term requested herein.
