• Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Declaration of Conformity
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment.
This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
B digital, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiated radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation if this equipment does cause harmful interference
to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Caution:
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment.
FCC RF Exposure Information (SAR):
This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission
limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission of the United States.
During SAR testing, this is set to transmit at its highest certified power
level in all tested frequency bands, and placed in positions that simulate RF
exposure in usage near the body with the separation of 15 mm. 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.
4 5
The exposure standard for wireless s employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC
is 1.6W/kg.
Tests for SAR 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.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model device is on file with
the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of HYPERLINK
"http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid" www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after
searching on:
FCC ID: 2ACCJN012
For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage near the body is:
Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it was recorded:
Body-worn SAR 1.14 W/kg
Head SAR 0.61 W/kg
SAR compliance for body operation is based on a separation distance of 15
mm between the device and the human body. During use, the actual SAR
values for this device are usually well below the values stated above. This is
because, for purposes of system efficiency and to minimize interference
on the network, the operating power of your device is automatically
decreased when full power is not needed. The lower the power output of
the device, the lower its SAR value.
Body-worn SAR testing has been carried out at a separation distance of
15 mm. To meet RF exposure guidelines during body-worn operation, the
device should be positioned at least this distance away from the body.
If you are not using an approved accessory ensure that whatever product
is used is free of any metal and that it positions the device the indicated
distance away from the body.
Organizations such as the World Health Organization and the US Food and
Drug Administration have suggested that if people are concerned and want
to reduce their exposure they could use a hands-free accessory to keep
the wireless device away from the head or body during use, or reduce the
amount of time spent on the device.
