Remark: EUT A is equipped with a temporary antenna connector. The Module is not sold with a
predefined antenna.

NOTE: The short description is used to simplify the identification of the EUT in this test report.



2.3 Ancillary Equipment

For the purposes of this test report, ancillary equipment is defined as equipment which is used in conjunction
with the EUT to provide operational and control features to the EUT. It is necessary to configure the system in a
typical fashion, as a customer would normally use it. But nevertheless, Ancillary Equipment can influence the
test results.

2.4 Auxiliary Equipment

For the purposes of this test report, auxiliary equipment is defined as equipment which is used temporarily to
enable operational and control features especially used for the tests of the EUT which is not used during
normal operation or equipment that is used during the tests in combination with the EUT but is not subject of
this test report. It is necessary to configure the system in a typical fashion, as a customer would normally use it.
But nevertheless, Auxiliary Equipment can influence the test results.

3.1.1 Test Limits
For the 850MHz band, FCC §22.913 states that the maximum ERP of this device shall not exceed 7 Watts. IC
SRSP-503 Issue 7, states that this device shall not exceed a maximum EIRP of 11.5 Watts. For the purposes of
this test report, the 7 Watt ERP limit stipulated in FCC §22.913 has been converted to an equivalent ERIP value
of 11.5 Watts. For all other limits, refer to the values stipulated in the corresponding tables.
