Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
This device meets the government’s requirements
for exposure to radio waves.
This device is designed and manufactured not
to exceed the emission limits for exposure to
radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
C o m m u n i c a t i o n s Co m m i s s i o n o f t h e U . S .

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
accepted by the FCC with the device transmitting
at its highest certified power level in all tested
frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined
at the highest certied power level, the actual SAR
level of the device while operating can be well
below the maximum value. This is because the
device is designed to operate at multiple power
levels so as to use only the poser required to reach
the network. In general, the closer you are to a
wireless base station antenna, the lower the power
output.
