General Information of RF Exposure 31
The FCC recommends that if you are interested in further reducing your exposure then you
can easily do so by reorienting antennas away from the user or placing the antennas at a
greater separation distance then recommended or lowering the transmitter power output.
Industry Canada Guidelines
This device meets Industry Canada guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
The OAP832e includes radio transmitters and receivers. It is designed not to exceed the limits
for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) as referenced in Health
Canada Safety Code 6. The guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed into the
limit to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
As such the systems are designed to be operated as to avoid contact with the antennas by the
end user. It is recommended to set the system in a location where the antennas can remain at
least a minimum distance as specified from the user in accordance to the regulatory guide-
lines which are designed to reduce the overall exposure of the user or operator.
Health Canada states that present scientific information does not indicate the need for any
special precautions for the use of wireless devices. They recommend that if you are inter-
ested in further reducing your exposure you can easily do so by reorienting antennas away
from the user, placing the antennas at a greater separation distance than recommended, or
lowering the transmitter power output.
