Peak Output Power Engineer: Alex Macon Test Date: 6/29/15 Test Requirements For the band 5.725-5.85 GHz, the maximum conducted output power over the frequency band of operation shall not exceed 1 W. If transmitting antennas of directional gain greater than 6 dBi are used, the maximum conducted output power shall be reduced by the amount in dB that the directional gain of the antenna exceeds 6 dBi. However, fixed point- to-point U-NII devices operating in this band may employ transmitting antennas with directional gain greater than 6 dBi without any corresponding reduction in transmitter conducted power. Fixed, point-to-point operations exclude the use of point-to-multipoint systems, omnidirectional applications, and multiple collocated transmitters transmitting the same information. The operator of the U-NII device, or if the equipment is professionally installed, the installer, is responsible for ensuring that systems employing high gain directional antennas are used exclusively for fixed, point-to-point operations. Test Procedure The RF power was calculated using the spectrum analyzers’ band power function per Method SA-1 from KDB 789033 D02 General U-NII Test Procedures New Rules v01. Measurements were made at the low, mid and high channels of the band. The Spectrum analyzer was set to the following: a. RBW = 1 MHz b. VBW ≥ 3 MHz c. Sweep time = auto d.

Undesirable Emissions Conducted Engineer: Alex Macon Test Date: 6/23/15 Test Requirements Unwanted Emissions that fall Outside Restricted Bands For transmitters operating in the 5.725-5.85 GHz band: All emissions within the frequency range from the band edge to 10 MHz above or below the band edge shall not exceed an e.i.r.p. of −17 dBm/MHz; for frequencies 10 MHz or greater above or below the band edge, emissions shall not exceed an e.i.r.p. of −27 dBm/MHz. The emission measurements shall be performed using a minimum resolution bandwidth of 1 MHz. A lower resolution bandwidth may be employed near the band edge, when necessary, provided the measured energy is integrated to show the total power over 1 MHz The provisions of §15.205 apply to intentional radiators operating under this section. Unwanted emissions below 1 GHz must comply with the general field strength limits set forth in §15.209. For Conducted Unwanted Emissions in the Restricted Bands For conducted measurements above 1000 MHz, EIRP was determined and then the field strength computed by the following: E[dBμV/m] = EIRP[dBm] - 20 log(d[meters]) + 104.77, where E = field strength and d = 3m E[dBμV/m] = EIRP[dBm] + 95.2, for d = 3 meters. Test Procedure Per KDB 789033 D02 General U-NII Test Procedures New Rules v01 conducted RF port measurements were made in lieu of radiated. In addition, Cabinet Emissions measurements were performed in a semi-anechoic chamber with the antenna port terminated by a matching load. See additional section for Radiated Emissions. The following criteria were addressed: The Spectrum Analyzer was set to the following for emissions > 1000MHz: a. RBW = 1 MHz b. VBW ≥ 3 MHz c. Detector = Peak. d. Sweep time = auto. e. Trace mode = max hold. 1. Note: For emissions where the peak exceeded that of the average 15.209 emission limit the following was performed. f. RBW = 1 MHz g. VBW ≤ RBW/100 (i.e., 10 kHz) but not less than 10 Hz. For emissions below 1000MHz the Spectrum Analyzer settings were as follows: a. RBW = 100 kHz b. VBW ≥ 300 kHz c. Detector = Peak. d. Sweep time = auto. e. Trace mode = max hold.

The antenna was replaced with non-radiating matched load. The EUT is placed on non-conductive platform at a height of 0.8 meters above the ground plane of the semi-anechoic chambers. The EUT was rotated 360 degrees and the receive antenna raised and lowered to th find the maximum emissions from 30MHz to the 10 harmonic of the fundamental. The EUT was set to the maximum power level allowed and the low, mid, and high channels were investigated for emissions. The Spectrum Analyzer was set to the following for emissions > 1000MHz: a. (RBW = 1 MHz b. VBW ≥ 3 MHz c. Detector = Peak. d. Sweep time = auto. e. Trace mode = max hold. 1. Note: For emissions where the peak exceeded that of the average 15.209 emission limit the following was performed. f. RBW = 1 MHz g. VBW ≤ RBW/100 (i.e., 10 kHz) but not less than 10Hz For emissions below 1000MHz the Spectrum Analyzer settings were as follows: a. RBW = 100 kHz b. VBW ≥ 300 kHz c. Detector = Peak. d. Sweep time = auto. e. Trace mode = max hold. 1. Note: A quasi peak detector was used for emissions where the peak exceeded that of the average 15.209 emission limits p1710009_FCC_Part 15.407_UNII-3_Rev 1.0 Page 17 of 24

Occupied Bandwidth Engineer: Alex Macon Test Date: 6/23/15 Test Requirement Within the 5.725-5.85 GHz band, the minimum 6 dB bandwidth of U-NII devices shall be at least 500 kHz. For purposes of this subpart the emission bandwidth shall be determined by measuring the width of the signal between two points, one below the carrier center frequency and one above the carrier center frequency, that are 6 dB down relative to the maximum level of the modulated carrier. Determination of the emissions bandwidth is based on the use of measurement instrumentation employing a peak detector function with an instrument resolution bandwidth approximately equal to 1.0 percent of the emission bandwidth of the device under measurement Test Procedure The Spectrum analyzer was set to the following parameters a. RBW = 100 kHz. b. VBW ≥ 300 kHz c. Detector = Peak. d. Trace mode = max hold.

RF Exposure Engineer: Alex Macon Test Date: 8/14/15 Requirements U-NII devices are subject to the radio frequency radiation exposure requirements specified in §1.1307(b), §2.1091 and §2.1093 of this chapter, as appropriate. All equipment shall be considered to operate in a “general population/uncontrolled” environment. Applications for equipment authorization of devices operating under this section must contain a statement confirming compliance with these requirements for both fundamental emissions and unwanted emissions. In addition, systems operating under the provisions of this section shall be operated in a manner that insures that the public is not exposed to radio frequency energy levels in excess of the Commission’s guidelines. Exposure Limits At operating frequencies less than or equal to 6 GHz, the limits for maximum permissible exposure (MPE) shall be used to evaluate the environmental impact of human exposure to radiofrequency (RF) radiation as specified in Section 1.1307(b), except for portable devices as defined in §2.1093 as these evaluations shall be performed according to the SAR provisions in §2.1093 of this chapter.
