Nevertheless, airlines may prohibit the use of all external drives (and any other
portable electronic devices that could emit stray RF energy) during takeoffs and
landings, because of possible interference with the reception of signals by
airborne electronic navigation devices.
c. FCC regulations, ICES, and European Standards for “Class B” digital devices
severely limit the levels of RF energy that may be emitted by a external drives.
The resulting emissions therefore also fall well within the allowable limits that have
been adopted by OSHA in 29 CFR 1910.97, and that have been adopted by the
promulgators of all other know regulations and standards that relate to the emission
of EMF energy in the RF range.
Consequently, the minute levels of EMF energy in the RF range that are emitted by
Freecom external drives comply with all existing regulations and standards, and pose
no known health hazards to human beings.
