Product Classification
This device is classified as a transmitting device designed for use in non-fixed locations. It is intended for use such that a separation distance of at least 20 centimeters is normally maintained between the RF source's radiating structure(s) and the body of the user or nearby persons.

FCC Radio Frequency Exposure Limit
| Frequency range (MHz) | Electric field strength (V/m) | Magnetic field strength (A/m) | Power density (mW/cm²) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 300-1,500 | -- | -- | f/1500 |
| 1,500-100,000 | -- | -- | 1.0 |
Radio Frequency Exposure Calculation Formula
The power density (S) can be calculated using the following formulas:
S = (P * G) / (4 * pi * R²)
Where:
- S = power density (in appropriate units, e.g., mW/cm²)
- P = power input to the antenna (in appropriate units, e.g., mW)
- G = power gain of the antenna in the direction of interest relative to an isotropic radiator
- R = distance to the center of radiation of the antenna (appropriate units, e.g., cm)
Alternatively:
S = EIRP / (4 * pi * R²)
Where: EIRP = Equivalent (or effective) isotropically radiated power
IC Field reference level exposure exemption limits
Field reference level (FRL) exposure evaluation is required if the separation distance between the user and/or bystander and the device's radiating element is greater than 20 cm (i.e., mobile devices), except when the device operates under the following conditions:
- Below 20 MHz: source-based, time-averaged maximum EIRP ≤ 1 W (adjusted for tune-up tolerance).
- At or above 20 MHz and below 48 MHz: source-based, time-averaged maximum EIRP ≤ 4.49 / f0.5 W (adjusted for tune-up tolerance), where f is in MHz.
- At or above 48 MHz and below 300 MHz: source-based, time-averaged maximum EIRP ≤ 0.6 W (adjusted for tune-up tolerance).
- At or above 300 MHz and below 6 GHz: source-based, time-averaged maximum EIRP ≤ 1.31 * 10-2 * f0.6834 W (adjusted for tune-up tolerance), where f is in MHz.
- At or above 6 GHz: source-based, time-averaged maximum EIRP ≤ 5 W (adjusted for tune-up tolerance).

Note:
BLE RF Output Power: Refer CN258DZA 001
Zigbee Output Power: Refer CN257BDY 001
Thread Output Power: Refer CN25SQ0U 001
BLE, Zigbee, and Thread share one RF chip and antenna, therefore, simultaneous transmission evaluation is not required.
Conclusion
The separation distance between the antenna and human is greater than 20 cm during normal use. Therefore, the maximum calculated results meet the requirements for Radio Frequency Exposure limits.
