Certification information (SAR)
This device model meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Your device 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 exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0 watts/
kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten grams of tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted
using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Your device is also designed to meet the requirements for exposure to radio waves
established by the Federal Communications Commission (USA) and Industry
Canada. These requirements set a SAR limit of 1.6 W/kg averaged over one gram of
tissue. The highest SAR value reported under this standard during product
certification when positioned in direct contact with the body is 1.31 W/kg.
