Consumer Information on SAR
(Specific Absorption Rate)
This model device meets the government's requirements for exposure to
radio waves.
Your wireless device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to Radio
Frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission
of the U.S. Government. 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 and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile devices employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by
the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
tested frequency bands. Although SAR is determined at the highest certified
power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well
below the maximum value. Because the device is designed to operate at
multiple power levels to use only the power required to reach the network, in
general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the
power output.
Before a device model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested
and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by
the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body)
as required by the FCC for each model.
