   All computed values are < 3.0, so according to KDB 447498 D01 – General RF Exposure Guidance, these
   modes qualify for Standalone SAR test exclusion for 1-g SAR and 10-g Extremity SAR.


   ISED evaluation:

   Exemption limits for the applicable separation distance have been calculated by linear interpolation for the
   applicable operating frequencies according to According to paragraph “RSS-102 Issue 5 (2015-03), 2.5.1
   Exemption Limits for Routine Evaluation – SAR Evaluation”.
   The device has a transmitting antenna with a negative gain; therefore the maximum conducted output power
   has been used for the evaluation as a worst case condition. For an intended use distance of 5 mm, the
   evaluation for the applicable output power levels and exemption limits for each operating frequency will be as
   follow:

                                                                     Max.           Max.                 ISED

FCC SAR test exclusion considerations for portable devices
   As stated by the FCC (47 CFR §2.1093), human exposure to RF emissions from portable devices, which are
   defined as transmitting devices to be used so that the radiating structure(s) of the device is/are within 20
   centimeters of the body of the user, must be evaluated with respect to the FCC-adopted limits for SAR.
   According to FCC OET KDB 447498 D01 General RF Exposure Guidance:
   Unless specifically required by the published RF exposure KDB procedures, standalone 1-g head or body and
   10-g extremity SAR evaluation for general population exposure conditions, by measurement or numerical
   simulation, is not required when the corresponding SAR Test Exclusion Threshold condition is satisfied.
   - For distances ≤ 50 mm
   The 1-g and 10-g SAR test exclusion thresholds for 100 MHz to 6 GHz at test separation distances ≤ 50 mm
   are determined by:
       [(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 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 is applied to determine SAR test exclusion.
   Approximate SAR Test Exclusion Power Thresholds at Selected Frequencies and Test Separation Distances
   are illustrated in the following Table:

   - For distances > 50 mm

- For frequencies below 100 MHz

The following may be considered for SAR test exclusion:

   1) For test separation distances > 50 mm and < 200 mm, the power threshold at the corresponding
   test separation distance at 100 MHz in step b) is multiplied by [1 + log(100/f(MHz))]
   2) For test separation distances ≤ 50 mm, the power threshold determined by the equation in c) 1) for
   50 mm and 100 MHz is multiplied by ½

ISED SAR test exclusion considerations
   According to “RSS-102 Issue 5 (2015-03) – Radio Frequency Exposure Compliance of Radiocommunication
   Apparatus (All Frequency Bands)”, paragraph “2.5.1 Exemption Limits for Routine Evaluation – SAR
   Evaluation”, the device operates below the applicable output power level (adjusted for tune-up tolerance) for
   the specified separation distance defined in Table 1:




   Output power level shall be the higher of the maximum conducted or equivalent isotropically radiated power
   (e.i.r.p.) source-based, time-averaged output power.
   For controlled use devices where the 8 W/kg for 1 gram of tissue applies, the exemption limits for routine
   evaluation in Table 1 are multiplied by a factor of 5. For limb-worn devices where the 10 gram value applies,
   the exemption limits for routine evaluation in Table 1 are multiplied by a factor of 2.5.
   If the operating frequency of the device is between two frequencies located in Table 1, linear interpolation
   shall be applied for the applicable separation distance. For test separation distance less than 5 mm, the
   exemption limits for a separation distance of 5 mm can be applied to determine if a routine evaluation is
   required.
