Ericsson AB requests a Class II Permissive Change for the above-mentioned FCC Identifier. New functionality (NR) has been added in software, as described/covered in exhibit 12 and supporting documentation. The radio (Radio 4449 B5 B12A operates in the Cellular band as per 47 CFR Part 2,22H, 27. This radio is designed for use in LTE, NB-IoT, NR cellular telephone system. This FDD radio operates in Band 5 and Band 12A, the transmitter from 869 - 894MHz and the receiver from 824 849 MHz for Band 5 and the transmitter from 729 745 MHz and the receiver from 699 - 715 MHz for Band 12A. It supports radio access technology SR & MR LTE and NR, NB-IoT IB & GB is supported only for B12A, it supports channel bandwidths of 5, 10 MHz LTE and 5, 10, 15MHz NR for Band 12A. It supports channel bandwidth of 5,10 MHz LTE and 5, 10, 15, 20MHz NR for Band 5. The radio supports modulation type QPSK, 16QAM, 64QAM, 256 QAM. The radio has the ability to be used in a RBS system configured for 3GPP up to 4x4 MIMO/Spatial multiplexing, carrier aggregation technologies. The radio will in normal mode operate at a maximum power of 2 x 60 W (47.8 dBm) or 4 x 40W (46dBm) 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 submitted with this application 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. Ericsson AB requests confidentiality under CFR 0.459 according to attached letter. We further certify that the applicant nor any party to the application is subject to a denial of Federal benefits, that includes FCC benefits, pursuant to section 5301 of the Anti-Drug abuse Act of 1988, 21 U.S.C.

FCC ID: TA8AKRC161752-1 IC ID: 287AB-AS1617521 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 Commissions Rules for FCC and in accordance to RSP-100 section 12.4 for ISED. 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 users 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.
