The UM175CE USB Modem package includes an extension USB Y-shaped cable. Although the cable is not required for use with your UM175CE modem, it offers increased perfor­mance for your UM175CE modem under certain operating conditions. Simply insert the USB connector into the USB port of your computing device to deliver power boost, increased RF performance, and to solve clearance issues.
USING THE USB MODEM EXTENSION CABLE:
1
Plug the single end of the Y-shaped cable into the
UM175CE Modem. [A]
2
Depending on the condition you are trying to solve
(power boost, increased RF performance, or clearance issues), plug either one of the two connected ends of the USB modem extension cable into the Type A USB port(s) on your computer. [B]
@
The USB modem extension cable connector labeled #1, is
the primary data power cable used to either extend the UM175CE modem away from your computer allowing you to locate the modem in a more optimum signal location or solve any computer USB port clearance issues. The USB modem extension cable connector labeled #2, is a power boost cable and must be used with connector #1 to provide the modem up to 1Amp of current for use in weaker signal areas.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1
Data transmission and reception cannot be guaranteed
because of the nature of wireless communications. Data can be delayed, corrupted or lost during transmission. Even though it is quite rare that significant data delay or loss occurs if the USB device is used in a normal man­ner, this USB device should not be used in cases that data transmission or reception failure could result in damage of any kind to the user or another party, including but not limited to personal injury, death or loss of personal property. UTStarcom bears no responsibility for damages or losses of any kind resulting from delays or errors in data transmission using the USB device, or for failure of the USB device to transmit or receive such data.
2
Do not use this USB device in areas where blasting is in
progress, where explosive atmospheres may be present, near medical equipment, life support equipment, or any equipment which may be susceptible to any form of radio interference. Turn off this USB device in these areas, since it can transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment.
3
Do not use this USB device in any aircraft whether the
aircraft is on the ground or in flight. Make sure to turn off this USB device in aircraft. If used in an aircraft, it can transmit signals that could interfere with various aircraft systems.
4
Do not use this USB device while driving a car, since it
can distract the driver. In some area, using the communi­cation device while driving a car is illegal.

THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emis
­sion limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. 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 mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. *
Tests for SAR are conducted with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certi
­fied power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone 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 phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certi­fied to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established
APPENDIX

RATES (SAR)

APPENDIX
by the government adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.19 W/Kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government require­ment for safe exposure. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/ oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID: PP4PX-700.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Asso-ciation (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com.
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile
phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a sub­stantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measure

BODY WORN OPERATION
This device was tested in multiple notebook computer configurations with USB port configurations for typical near-body operations with the back of the USB Modem kept 20mm from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, it can be used in notebook computers with substantially similar physical dimensions, construction, electrical and RF characteristics, and that main­tain a minimum 20mm separation distance between the user’s body and the back of the USB Modem, including the antenna. The antenna(s) used for this USB Modem must not be co-located or must not operate in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter within a host device.
SAFETY INFORMATION
SAFETY INFORMATION FOR FIXED WIRELESS TERMINALS POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire result
­ing in bodily injury or even death.
INTERFERENCE TO MEDICAL DEVICES
Certain electronic equipment may be shielded against RF signal from your wireless phone. (Pacemakers, Hearing Aids, and so on). Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
