TIA Safety Information
The following is the complete TIA
Safety Information for wireless handheld
phones.
Exposure to Radio Frequency
Signal
Your wireless handheld portable phone
is a low power radio transmitter and
receiver. When ON, it receives and
sends out Radio Frequency (RF) signals.
In August, 1996, the Federal
Communications Commissions (FCC)
adopted RF exposure guidelines with
safety levels for handheld wireless
phones. Those guidelines are consistent
with the safety standards previously set
by both U.S. and international standards
bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
NCRP Report 86 (1986)
ICNIRP (1996)
*American National Standards
Institute; National Council
on Radiation Protection and
Measurements; International
Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection
Those standards were based on
comprehensive and periodic evaluations
of the relevant scientific literature. For
example, over 120 scientists, engineers,
and physicians from universities,
government health agencies, and
industry reviewed the available body of
research to develop the ANSI Standard
(C95.1).
