Subject: Class II permissive change for FCC ID: TA8AKRC161418-1

To Whom It May Concern:

Ericsson AB requests a Class II Permissive Change for the above mentioned FCC Identifier.

New functionality NR with NB-IoT and ESS Ericsson Spectrum Sharing have been added in the software and

described/covered in exhibit 12 and supporting documentation.

The radio operates in the Cellular band as per 47 CFR Part 24.

This radio (RRUS 32A B2) is designed for use in GSM, WCDMA, LTE, NR, NB IoT cellular telephone system. This

FDD radio operates in Band 2, the transmitter from 1930 - 1990 MHz and the receiver from 1850 - 1910 MHz. It

supports radio access technology SR & MR GSM, WCDMA, LTE, NR, NB IoT (for GSM, MR only), it supports channel

bandwidths of 1.4, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20 MHz for LTE and 5, 10, 15, 20 MHz for NR.

The radio supports modulation type GSM: GMSK, AQPSK, 8PSK WCDMA: QPSK, 16QAM, 64QAM LTE & NR: QPSK,

16QAM, 64QAM, 256QAM.

The radio has the ability to be used in a RBS system configured for 3GPP MIMO/Spatial multiplexing, carrier

aggregation and NB-IoT technologies.

The radio will in normal mode operate at a maximum power of 30 W (44.8 dBm) at the output connectors. The radio

has four (4) combined TX/RX ports.

This radio will always require a license for transmission.

The Exhibit 8 user manuals is submitted with previous applications is generic and may cover multiple products.

This application is only valid for the model specified in the Exhibit 6 test report.

Ericsson AB accept by this request the agreement set out in the document “IP SPCR 125 Annex A2 Agreements on

Post-market surveillance for radio equipment certified for the US market.

Subject: Request for Confidentiality:

FCC ID: TA8AKRC161418-1

To whom it may concern:

We, Ericsson AB, hereby request that the Exhibits/Items listed below be withheld from public inspection in

accordance to sections 0.457 and 0.459 of the Commission’s Rules for FCC.

This due to the following reasons:

Ericsson Base Stations (BS) are designed strictly based on the technical specifications of the international project

3GPP (the 3rd Generation Partnership Project). The competition in this field is very intense and a less advanced

solution/design could get an unfair advantage by accessing the information as listed below from common domain.

As we believe that we have implemented groundbreaking solutions and designs into our recent BS/Radio Unit

(RU) / Remote Radio Unit (RRU) / Radio Dot (RD) compared to the previous BS/RU/RRU/RD, the listed

Exhibits/Items need to be protected from disclosure to our competitors in the industry. As the FCC records have in-

depth information and a very wide distribution, we believe that you can understand our concerns. We are strong in

our belief that all vendors in the industry need to compete by their own merits. We regard these Exhibits/Items to

be our intellectual property and therefore as confidential information.

There are advanced technical and design solutions/information in the Exhibits/Items, as mentioned above, that we

regard as Ericsson proprietary, with actual and potential patents pending. The information can be advantageous to

our competitors as well as sources seeking ways to hack past the built-in security functionality. These solutions or

information thereof are not accessible even for our customers or partners unless non-disclosure agreements for

particular item(s) have been signed. Confidential product information can be found in, but not necessarily limited

to, internal photos of the BS RU RRU and RD, block diagrams, schematics diagrams, and parts lists as well as

certain documents, such as the user’s manuals. Those documents can only be accessible by the customers who

purchase out BS/RU/RRU/RD and accept the conditions and therefore are provided with unique information

access tools.
