FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC) Regulations for
Wireless Devices
On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
Report and Order in WT Docket 01- 09 modified the exception of wireless
phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to require
digital wireless phones be compatible with hearing-aid. The intent of the
HAC Act is to ensure reasonable access to telecommunications services
for persons with hearing disabilities. While some wireless phones are used
near some hearing devices (hearing aid and cochlear implants), users may
detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are
more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in
the amount of interference they generate. The wireless telephone industry
has developed a rating system for wireless phones, to assist hearing device
users find phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not
all phones have been rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on their
box or a label located on the box. The ratings are not guarantees. Results
will vary depending on the user's hearing device and hearing loss. If your
hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be
able to use a rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your
hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely
to generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that are not
rated. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. Your device is rated M4.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to
be more usable with a hearing aid's telecoil than phones that are not rated.
T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. Your device is rated T4.
Please power off the Bluetooth
with your ALCATEL A462C.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or
hearing health professional may help you find this rating. Higher ratings
mean that the hearing device is relatively immune to interference noise.
The hearing aid and wireless phone rating values are then added together. A
sum of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is considered
for better use. A sum of 8 is considered for best use. In the above example,
if a hearing aid meets the M2 level rating and the wireless phone meets the
M3 level rating, the sum of the two values equal M5. This should provide
the hearing aid user with "normal usage" while using their hearing aid with
the particular wireless phone. "Normal usage" in this context is defined as
a signal quality that is acceptable for normal operation.
This methodology applies equally for T ratings. The M mark is intended to
be synonymous with the U mark. The T mark is intended to be synonymous
with the UT mark. The M and T marks are recommended by the Alliance
for Telecommunications Industries Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT marks
are referenced in Section 20.19 of the FCC Rules. The HAC rating and
measurement procedure are described in the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.
