This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio
waves.
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 U.S. Government.
The exposure standard employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specic 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 EUT transmitting at the specied
power level in different channels.
The highest SAR value for the device as reported to the FCC is 1.46 W/
kg when placed next to the body.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device with
all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device is on le with the
FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/
oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: E8HDCC225U30.
This device is compliance with SAR for general population /
uncontrolled exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1999 and had been
tested in accordance with the measurement methods and procedures
specied in OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C.
