FCC ID: N7NGOBI2 (IC: 2417C-GOBI2) Report No. M091066_Cert_Gobi2000_C2PC Page 7 of 16 2.6 Test Facility 2.6.1 General Radiated Emission measurements were performed at EMC Technologies open area test site (OATS) situated at Lerderderg Gorge, near the township of Bacchus Marsh in Victoria, Australia. Conducted measurements at an antenna ports were performed at EMC Technologies' laboratory in Keilor Park, Victoria Australia. The above test sites have been accepted for testing by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) - FCC Registration Number 90560. EMC Technologies open area test site (OATS) has also been accepted by Industry Canada for the performance of radiated measurements in accordance with RSS 212, Issue 1 (Provisional). Industry Canada File Number IC 3569B-1. 2.6.2 NATA Accreditation EMC Technologies is accredited in Australia to test to the following standards by the National Association of Testing Authorities (NATA). “FCC Part 15 unintentional and intentional emitters in the frequency range 9kHz to 18 GHz excluding TV receivers (15.117 and 15.119), TV interface devices (15.115), cable ready consumer electronic equipment (15.118), cable locating equipment (15.213) and unlicensed national information infrastructure devices (Sub part E).” The current full scope of accreditation can be found on the NATA website: www.nata.asn.au It also includes a large number of emissions, immunity, SAR, EMR and Safety standards. NATA is the Australian national laboratory accreditation body and has accredited EMC Technologies to operate to the IEC/ISO17025 requirements. A major requirement for accreditation is the assessment of the company and its personnel as being technically competent in testing to the standards. This requires fully documented test procedures, continued calibration of all equipment to the National Standard at the National Measurements Institute (NMI) and an internal quality system to ISO 9002. NATA has mutual recognition agreements with the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) and the American Association for Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA). 2.7 Test Equipment Calibration All measurement instrumentation and transducers were calibrated in accordance with the applicable standards by an independent NATA registered laboratory such as Agilent Technologies (Australia) Pty Ltd or the National Measurement Institute (NMI). All equipment calibration is traceable to Australia national standards at the National Measurements Institute. The reference antenna calibration was performed by NMI and the working antennas (biconical and log-periodic) calibrated by the NATA approved procedures. The complete list of test equipment used for the measurements, including calibration dates and traceability is contained in Appendix A. 2.8 Ambients at OATS The Open Area Test Site (OATS) is an area of low background ambient signals. No significant broadband ambients are present however commercial radio and TV signals exceed the limit in the FM radio, VHF and UHF television bands. Radiated prescan measurements were performed in the shielded enclosure to check for possible radiated emissions at the frequencies where the OATS ambient signals exceeded the test limit.

FCC ID: N7NGOBI2 (IC: 2417C-GOBI2) Report No. M091066_Cert_Gobi2000_C2PC Page 8 of 16 RESULTS 3.0 PEAK POWER OUTPUT MEASUREMENTS Refer to original approval under FCC ID: N7NGOBI2 (Canada ID: 2417C-GOBI2) certified by Sierra Wireless. Testing was performed by QUADCOMM Incorporated, San Diego CA. 4.0 EIPR and OUT of BAND EMISSIONS (Fundamental & Spurious/ Harmonics) 4.1 Test Procedure Testing was performed in accordance with the requirements of FCC Part 24.238 and FCC Part 22.917(a). As per 24.238(a) – The limits of any emissions outside the frequency band shall be attenuated by at least 43 + 10log(P) dB, where P is the measured transmitter output power. This UMTS module was originally tested and certified by the manufacturer as a stand-alone module outside a laptop (host) with higher gain antennas. Refer to manufacturer’s original FCC Part 22 & 24 radiated test report for full results showing compliance with the spurious and harmonics limits. However, to ensure the UMTS module install in T900 / TH900 LifeBook is still in compliance, verification tests were performed at selected frequencies for harmonics and spurious emissions. The EUT was slowly rotated with the Peak Detector set to Max-Hold. This was performed for two antenna heights. When an emission was located, it was positively identified and its maximum level found by rotating the automated turntable, and by varying the antenna height. Each significant peak was investigated. This process was performed for both horizontal and vertical antenna polarisations. A substitution measurement was used to measure the fundamental and harmonics. The EUT was replaced with a calibrated horn antenna (above 1 GHz) and calibrated dipole antenna (below 1 GHz) that was connected to a calibrated signal generator. The output level of the signal generator was adjusted until the same level on the spectrum analyser observed. The level of the signal generator output in dBm less any loss/gain due to the coax cable and the antenna. 4.2 Radiated Emissions 4.2.1 Frequency Band: 1 – 20 GHz Calibrated EMCO 3115, EMCO 3116 and ETS Standard Horn antennas were used for measurements between 1 to 20 GHz. The measurements were made at the open area test site at a distance of 3 metres. The measurement of emissions was measured using the following setting: RBW = VBW = 1 MHz Except band-edge, RBW = VBW = 10 kHz The receiver bandwidth was set to 6 dB. Testing was performed while transmitter continuously transmitted on a low, middle and high frequency channel. All orientations were investigated and tested. Worst cases of harmonics were reported below. EMC Technologies Pty Ltd – 176 Harrick Road, Keilor Park VIC 3042 Australia www.emctech.com.au

FCC ID: N7NGOBI2 (IC: 2417C-GOBI2) Report No. M091066_Cert_Gobi2000_C2PC Page 14 of 16 7.0 CONDUCTED EMISSION MEASUREMENTS 7.1 Test Procedure The arrangement specified in ANSI/TIA/EIA-603 and ANSI C63.4-2003 was adhered to for the conducted EMI measurements. The EUT was placed in the RF screened enclosure and a CISPR EMI Receiver as defined in ANSI C63.2-1996 was used to perform the measurements. The EMI Receiver was operated under program control using the Max-Hold function and automatic frequency scanning, measurement and data logging techniques. The specified 0.15 MHz to 30 MHz frequency range was sub-divided into sub-ranges to ensure that all short duration peaks were captured. 7.2 Peak Maximising Procedure The various operating modes of the system were investigated. For each of the sub-ranges, the EMI receiver was set to continuous scan with the Peak detector set to Max-Hold mode. The Quasi-Peak detector and the Average detector were then invoked to measure the actual Quasi- Peak and Average level of the most significant peaks, which were detected. 7.3 Calculation of Voltage Levels The voltage levels were automatically measured in software and compared to the test limit. The method of calculation was as follows: VEMI = VRx + LBPF Where: VEMI = the Measured EMI voltage in dBµV to be compared to the limit. VRx = the Voltage in dBµV read directly at the EMI receiver. LBPF = the loss in dB of the cables and the Limiter and Pass Filter. 7.4 Plotting of Conducted Emission Measurement Data The measurement data pertaining to each frequency sub-range were then concatenated to form a single graph of (peak) amplitude versus frequency. This was performed for both Active and Neutral lines and the composite graph were subsequently plotted. A list of the highest relevant peaks and the respective Quasi-Peak and Average values were also plotted on the graph. 7.5 Results of Conducted Emission Measurements (AC Mains Ports) The worst case conducted EMI complied with both quasi peak and average limits by margins of greater than 10 dB.
