For Your Safety 166
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement
knownastheSpecificAbsorptionRate,orSAR.TheSARlimitsetbytheFCCis1.6
W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by
theFCCwiththephonetransmittingatitshighestcertifiedpowerlevelinalltested
frequency bands. Although SAR is determined at the highest certified power level,
the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum
value. Because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels 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
isavailableforsaletothepublic,itmustbetestedandcertifiedtotheFCCthatit
does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for
safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear
andwornonthebody)asrequiredbytheFCCforeachmodel.
The highest SAR values are:
*Head:0.65W/kg
*Body(Body-worn/Hotspot):1.23W/kg
(Body measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available
accessoriesandFCCrequirements).
While there may be differences between SAR levels of various phones and at
various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
