Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry Canada
(IC) guidelines respecting safety levels of radio frequency (RF)
exposure for portable devices, which in turn are consistent
with the following safety standards previously set by
Canadian, U.S. and international standards bodies:
ANSI / IEEE C95.1-1999, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels
with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electro-
magnetic Fields, 3kHz to 300 GHz
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measure-
ments (NCRP) Report 86, -1986, Biological Effects and
Exposure Criteria for Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields
Health Canada, Safety Code 6, 1999, Limits of Human
Exposure to Radio frequency Electromagnetic Fields in the
Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz
International Commission on Non-Ionising Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP) 1998, Guidelines for limiting exposure to
time-varying electric, magnetic, and electromagnetic fields (up
to 300 GHz)
CAUTION: The AirCard 850/860 has been tested for
compliance with FCC / IC RF exposure limits in the laptop
