Страница: 18 / 33

The BlackBerry® device 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 (FCC) of the U.S. Government, Industry Canada of the Canadian
Government (IC), and recommended by The Council of the European Union. 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 evaluation 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/IC is 1.6W/kg*. The SAR limit
recommended by The Council of the European Union is 2.0W/kg**. Tests for SAR are conducted
using standard operating positions specified by the FCC/IC 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 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.
Before a wireless device model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified
to the FCC, IC, and The Council of the European Union that it does not exceed the limit
established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure under the
recommendations of the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP). The tests are performed in positions and locations (for example, at the ear and worn
on the body) as required by the FCC, IC, and The Council of the European Union for each model.
