part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permied
levels of RF energy for the general populaon. The
guidelines are based on standards that were developed by
independent scienc organizaons through periodic and
thorough evaluaon of scienc studies. These guidelines
include a substanal safety margin designed to ensure the
safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for routers employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specic Absorpon Rate,
or SAR. The SAR limit set by public authories such as
the Federal Communicaons Commission of the US
Government (FCC), or by Industry Canada, is 1.6 W/kg
averaged over 1 gram of body ssue. Tests for SAR are
conducted using standard operang posions with the
router transming at its highest cered power level in all
tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest cered
power level, the actual SAR level of the router while
operang can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the router is designed to operate at mulple power
levels so as to use only the power required to reach the
network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base
staon antenna, the lower the power output of the router.
Before a router model is available for sale to the public,
compliance with naonal regulaons and standards must
be shown.
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested is
1.26 W/Kg for use close to the body.
For body-worn operaon, the phone meets FCC RF
exposure guidelines provided that it is used with a non-
metallic accessory with the handset at least 10 mm from
the body.
