SAR Information Statement
Your baby monitor Parent Unit is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the the U.S. Government.
These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines are based on standards that were
developed by independent scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety
margin designed to assure all persons, regardless of age and health. The exposure
standard for the Parent Unit employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. Test for SAR are
conducted with the Parent Unit 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 Parent Unit is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the
power required to reach the Nursery Unit. In general, the closer you are to Nursery Unit,
the lower the power output. Before a baby monitor 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. in front of face and the worn on the body) as required by FCC
for each model. The highest SAR value for the Parent Unit when tested for use in front of
face is 0.043W/Kg and when worn on the body is 0.125W/Kg (Body-worn measurements
differ among various models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements).
While there may be difference between the SAR levels of various Parent Units and various
positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposures. The FCC has
granted an Equipment Authorization for this model Parent Unit with all reported SAR levels
evaluated in compliance with the FCC RFexposure guidelines. SAR information on this
model Parent Unit is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant
section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID:N7TAC117R.
In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for the Parent Unit is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg)
averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of
safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements.
IC STATEMENT
This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s)
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1)This device may not cause interference, and
(2)This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause
undesired operation of the device.
This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for satisfying RF
exposure compliance. This transmitter must not be co-located or operation in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter.
These requirements set a SAR limit of 1.6W/kg averaged over one gram of tissue.
The highest SAR value for this Parent Unit when tested for use in front of face is
0.043W/Kg and when worn on the body is 0.125W/Kg. This device was tested for typical
body-worn operations. To comply with RF exposure requirements, 0 mm testing
separation distance was done between testing BODY and the Parent Unit, including
antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories used by this device
should not contain any metallic components. Body-worn accessories that do not meet
these requirements may not comply RF exposure requirements and should be avoided.
Use only the supplied antenna.
