RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION
THIS CDMA USB DONGLE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT ’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your CDMA USB DONGLE is a radio transmitter and receiver. It 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. These limits
are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are
based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluate on of
scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age
and health.
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 1.6 W/kg.*Tests for SAR are conducted with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level
in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the
device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power
levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the
lower the power output. Before a wireless device is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it
does not exceed the limit established by the government adopted requirement for safe exposure.
The highest SAR value for this CDMA USB Dongle is
1. 23 0 W/kg. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this
CDMA USB Dongle with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR
information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov /
oet / fcc id after searching on
FCC ID : R2NSXC-1 1 80 .
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR)can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications &Internet Association
(CTIA) web-site at http://phonefacts.net.*In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is
1.6watts/kg (W/kg)averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for any agitations in measurements.
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-
326 adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC
regulated transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously set by both U.S. and international
standards bodies. The design of this phone complies with the FCC guidelines and these international standards.

WARNING! Read this information before use
Caution
Modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
FCC Compliance Information
This device complies with Part 15 of 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.
Information to User
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ tv technician for help.
