SAR
This device is SAR accredited adheres to international quality benchmarks and safety measures concerning the harmful impact of radiations. It complies with applicable safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. The radio waves exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement called Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). SAR is a measure of the rate at which energy is absorbed by the body when exposed to a radio frequency (RF). SAR is usually averaged either over the whole body, or over a small sample volume (typically 1g or 10g of tissue). The recommended SAR limit for a mobile handset/similar device is 1.6 W/Kg averaged over a volume containing a mass 1g of human tissue.
SAR Value
• Your Mobile is designed not to exceed the limits of emission of radio waves recommended by international guidelines.
• SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) is the measurement of body-absorbed RF quantity when the phone is in use. SAR value is ascertained according to the highest RF level generated during laboratory tests.
• The SAR value of the phone may depend on factors such as proximity to the network
tower, use of accessories.
SAR Recommendations
• Use a wireless hands free system (headphone, headset) with lower Bluetooth emitter.
7
• Make sure the device has a low SAR.
• Please keep your calls short and use SMS whenever more convenient. This advice
applies especially to children and pregnant women.
• Prefer to use your Mobile when the signal quality is good.
SAR Value
Tested SAR Value of iBall Andi 5G Blink 4G as follows (2G) GSM 900MHz: 1.011 W/kg (1g) (2G) GSM 1800MHz: 0.932 W/kg (1g) (3G) WCDMA 2100MHz: 0.831 W/kg (1g) (4G) FDD-LTE Band B3/B5/B8: 0.775 W/kg (1g) (4G) TDD-LTE Band B40: 0.697 W/kg (1g)
