Section 4A: Safety 146
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed in the
head of a user of a wireless handset.
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring and
calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the phone emits. All phone
models are tested at their highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in
operation, the SAR of a phone can be substantially less than the level reported to the
FCC. This is because of a variety of factors including its proximity to a base station
antenna, phone design and other factors. What is important to remember is that each
phone meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SARs do not represent a variation
in safety.
All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a substantial margin of
safety. As stated above, variations in SAR values between different model phones do not
mean variations in safety. SAR values at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg are
considered safe for use by the public.
The highest reported SAR values of the SCP-200 are:
AMPS/CDMA modes (Part 22):
Head: 1.360 W/kg; Body-worn: 1.050 W/kg
PCS mode (Part 24):
Head: 1.180 W/kg; Body-worn: 1.120 W/kg
