WIRELESS ADAPTER REGULATORY INFORMATION
Use on aircraft
Caution: FCC and FAA regulations prohibit airborne operation of
radiofrequency wireless devices (wireless adapters) because their
signals could interfere with critical interfere with critical aircraft
instruments.
The Wireless Adapter and Your Health
The wireless adapter, like other radio devices, emits radio frequency electromagnetic
energy. The level of energy emitted by the wireless adapter, however, is less than the
electromagnetic energy emitted by other wireless devices such as mobile phones.
The wireless adapter operates within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety
standards and recommendations.
These standards and recommendations reflect the consensus of the scientific
community and result from deliberations of panels and committees of scientists who
continually review and interpret the extensive research literature. In some situations
or environments, the use of the wireless adapter may be restricted by the proprietor
of the building or responsible representatives of the applicable organization.
Examples of such situations may include:
- Using the wireless adapter on board airplanes, or
- Using the wireless adapter in any other environment where the risk of interference
with other devices or services is perceived or identified as being harmful.
If you are uncertain of the policy that applies to the use of wireless adapters in a
specific organization or environment (an airport, for example), you are encouraged to
ask for authorization to use the adapter before you turn it on.

SAR information
RF exposure information (SAR)
This device meets the EU requirements (1999/519/EC) on the limitation of exposure
of the general public to electromagnetic fields by way of health protection. The limits
are part of extensive recommendations for the protection of the general public. These
recommendations have been developed and checked by independent scientific
organizations through regular and thorough evaluations of scientific studies. To
guarantee the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health, the limits include a
significant safety buffer.
Before radio devices can be put in circulation, their agreement with European laws or
limits must be confirmed; only then may the CE symbol be applied.
The unit of measurement for the European Council's recommended limit for mobile
devices is the "Specific Absorption Rate" (SAR). This SAR limit is 2.0 W/kg, averaged
over 10 g of body tissue. It meets the requirements of the International Commission on
Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). The maximum SAR value is calculated at
the highest output level in all frequency bands of the mobile device. The highest SAR
value reported under this standard during product certification for use of the device at
a distance of 0 cm from the body.
During use, the actual SAR level is usually much lower than the maximum value,
because the mobile device works in different output levels. It only transmits with as
much output as is required to reach the network. In general the following applies: The
