Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
•
Your USB Modem is a radio transmitter
and receiver. It is designed not to
exceed the limits for exposure to radio
waves recommended by international
guidelines. These guidelines were
developed by the independent scientific
organization ICNIRP and include
safety margins designed to assure the
protection of all persons, regardless of
age and health.
•
The guidelines use a unit of
measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
for wireless devices is 2.0 W/kg and the
highest SAR value for this device when
tested complied with this limit.
Body-worn Operation
•
To ensure compliance with RF exposure
guidelines the USB Modem must be used
with a minimum of 1.5 cm separation
from the body. Failure to observe
these instructions could result in your
RF exposure exceeding the relevant
guideline limits.
CE Approval (European Union)
•
The USB Modem is approved to be used
in the member states of the EU. The
wireless device is in compliance with
the essential requirements and other
relevant provisions of the Radio and
Telecommunications Terminal Equipment
Directive 1999/5/EC (R&TTE Directive).
