The RF exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless
mobile devices employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR).
The SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of
RF energy by the human body expressed in units
of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC SAR limit
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection to the public and to account
for any variations in measurements.
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating
positions accepted by the FCC 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 reported value.
This is because the device 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 of the device.

Before a new model device is available for sale
to the public, it must be tested and certified to
the FCC that it does not exceed the SAR limit
established by the FCC.
