GSP-1620 Modem Product Specification
80-99240-1 Rev. D 7-5
Electronic Device Restrictions
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF
signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be
shielded against the RF signals from wireless phones and
modems.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends
that a minimum separation distance of 15.24 centimeters (6
inches) be maintained between a handheld wireless phone
and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker.
For a wireless modem, which has a higher power output than
a wireless phone, the distance must be increased. For a
GSP-1620 modem, a minimum separation distance of 22.67
centimeters (9 inches) should be maintained between the
transmitting modem antenna and all pacemakers. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent
research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology
Research, L.L.C.
Persons with pacemakers should follow these guidelines:
• Always keep the modem antenna more than 22.67
centimeters (9 inches) from your pacemaker when the
modem is turned ON.
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, turn your modem OFF immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones and other wireless devices
(including wireless modems) may interfere with some hearing
aids. If interference occurs, you may want to consult your
Service Provider (or call QUALCOMM Globalstar Customer
Service to discuss alternatives).
