SAR INFORMATION

THIS MODEL MODEM MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

Your wireless modem 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

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 modem 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 with the modem 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 modem while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because

the modem is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as 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

modem 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. The

highest SAR value for this model modem when tested for use near the body, as described in this user guide, is

1.16 W/Kg. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various modems and at various

positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure. The FCC has granted an Equipment

Authorization for this model modem with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF

exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model modem 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: XHG-X720. Additional

information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry

Association (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com. * In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for

mobile modems used by the public 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.

SAFETY INFORMATION

SAFETY INFORMATION FOR FIXED WIRELESS TERMINALS POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES

Turn your modem OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and

instructions. Sparks in such areas could cauls e an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

INTERFERENCE TO MEDICAL DIVICES Certain electronic equipment may be shielded against RF signal from your

wireless modem. (pacemakers, Hearing Aids, and so on) Turn your modem OFF in health c are facilities when

any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. RF signals may affect improperly installed or

inadequately shielded electronic system in motor vehicles. EXPOSURE TO RF ENERGY Use only the supplied or

an approved replacement antenna. Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the modem is in use. Do not

move the antenna close to, or couching any exposed part of the body when making a call. NEAR BODY

OPERATION This device was tested for typical near body operations with the back of the modem kept 1 cm

from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, it must have a minimum distance

including the antenna of 1 cm from the body during normal operation
