Output power listed is EIRP.

This device supports channel bandwidths of 1.4/3/5/10 MHz for LTE (band 53) and 10MHz for 5GNR (band n53). The corresponding line entries are the highest measured total power and widest bandwidth across LTE and 5GNR for QPSK and QAM emissions.

The highest reported SAR values for head, body-worn accessory, product specific (hot spot), extremity, and simultaneous transmission exposure conditions are 0.18 W/Kg, 1.16 W/Kg, 1.16 W/Kg, 2.98 W/Kg (10g), and 1.59 W/Kg respectively. To satisfy FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, body-worn operations are restricted to belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that have no metallic component in the assembly and must provide at least 5 mm separation between the device and the user's body. End-users must be informed of the body-worn operating requirements for satisfying RF exposure compliance.

Data referencing is based on reference model FCC ID: BCG-E9195A.
