Specific Absorption Rate Data
The model wireless phone meets the
government's requirements for exposure to
radio waves.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to
exceed limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government and by the
Canadian regulatory authorities. These limits are part
of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted
levels of RF energy for the general population. The
guidelines are based on standards that were
developed by independent scientific organizations
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. The standards include a substantial safety
margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age or health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones
employs a unit of measurement known as the
72
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set
by the FCC and by the Canadian regulatory
authorities is
1
1.6 W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions accepted by the FCC
and by Industry Canada with the phone transmitting
at its highest certified power level in all tested
frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at
the highest certified power level, the actual SAR
level of the phone while operating can be well below
the maximum value. This is because the phone is
designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to
use only the power required to reach the network. In
general, the closer you are to a wireless base station,
the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the
public in the U.S. and Canada, it must be tested and
certified to the FCC and Industry Canada that it does
not exceed the limit established by each government
