2 GR64 Wireless Modem

2.1 About the GR64

The Sony Ericsson Gx64 family of devices are Quad Band GSM/GPRS wireless modems operating in the GSM 850/900/1800/1900 bands.

These products belong to a new generation of Sony Ericsson wireless modems, and are intended to be used in machine-to-machine applications and man-to-machine applications. They are used when there is a need to send and receive data (by SMS, CSD, or GPRS), and make voice calls over the GSM network.

The GR64 conforms to the European Union (EU) Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive 2002/95/EC.

The GR64 is available in four variants. Table 1: GR64 Variants lists the hardware and software features for each variant. The device is available in two hardware variants. Each hardware variant is available in two software variants. The first hardware variant (/10 and /30) is equipped with PCM compatible pins but does not have a USB interface or an integrated SIM card holder. The second hardware variant (/20 and /40) is equipped with a USB interface and an integrated SIM card holder, but does not have PCM compatible pins.

LZT 123 1834 19

2.6.2 Radio Frequency (RF) exposure and SAR

Your wireless modem device is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver (transceiver). When it is turned on, it emits low levels of radio frequency energy (also known as radio waves or radio frequency fields).

Governments around the world have adopted comprehensive international safety guidelines, developed by scientific organizations, e.g. ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection) and IEEE (The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.), through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the general population. The levels include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health, and to account for any variations in measurements.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a transceiver. The SAR value is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of the transceiver while operating can be well below this value. This is because the transceiver is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the network.

The GR64 wireless modem device has been approved for applications where the antenna is located >20cm from the body. In all other configurations the integrator is responsible for meeting the local SAR regulations.

Integrators of the GR64 wireless modem device are responsible for ensuring that they meet the SAR regulatory requirements of the countries in which they intend to operate the device, and that their documentation contains the relevant SAR declaration, certification information, and user guidance as appropriate.

More information on radio frequency exposure and SAR can be found at

www.sonyericsson.com

2.6.3 Personal Medical Devices

Wireless modem devices may affect the operation of cardiac pacemakers, hearing aids and certain other implanted equipment. If a minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) is maintained between the GR64 module’s radiating antenna and a pacemaker, the risk of interference is limited. If the integrator’s application is likely to be situated in the vicinity of personnel, a suitable warning should be contained in the equipment manual to this effect.
