Radiation from Electronic Devices The USB Wireless modem is a transmitting device with similar output power to a mobile phone. It uses an internal or external antenna to connect to the mobile network. To get the best performance from your device do not cover or shield the device in any way as this will lead to increased output power. Always leave a clear space around the device to allow the transmit and receive signals to propagate.
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy This model MF633+ meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government: The exposure standard for wireless devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model device 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: Q78-ZTEMF633PLUS.
FCC Compliance z This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. z This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment. z The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be colocated or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
