Operation is subject to thefollowing two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference,and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interferencethat may cause unwanted operation.This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for aClass B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits aredesigned to provide reasonable protection against interference in a commercialor residential installation. There is no guarantee, however, that interference willnot occur in any particular installation. If this equipment does cause interferencewith radio or television reception, the user should try to correct the interferenceby employing one or more of the following:• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna on the affected equipment.• Increase the separation between the affected equipment and the badge.• Consult the dealer or an experienced technician for help.Any changes or modifications to this device not expressly approved by theparty responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate theequipment.
B1000A and B2000 Regulatory Notices6 ··· Vocera Regulatory and Safety InformationSpecific Absorption Rate (SAR) Exposure GuidelinesTHIS BADGE MEETS THE FCC REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIOFREQUENCY ENERGY (SAR).Your wireless badge is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed andmanufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency(RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.Government. These limits are part of a set of comprehensive guidelinesthat establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. Theguidelines are based on standards that were developed by independentscientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientificstudies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assurethe safety of all persons, regardless of age and health. The exposure standardfor wireless communications devices employs a unit of measurement known asthe 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, as applicableto this device, specified by the FCC. The standard incorporates a substantialmargin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account forany variations in measurement. Before a badge is available for sale to the public,sample units must be tested by a certified regulatory lab to verify that they donot exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement forsafe exposure.USE ONLY APPROVED ACCESSORIESRF exposure (SAR) tests have been performed on the Vocera badge when itis being worn correctly and used with the approved accessories. The SAR testresults show that the badge complies with all FCC exposure requirements.When a properly-oriented badge is operated with the appropriate accessories,as directed in the Vocera Badge User Guide, the level of RF exposure is wellbelow the FCC limit of 1.6W/Kg.Therefore, to ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines whenwearing the Vocera badge, the user should only use Vocera approvedaccessories (e.g., lanyard, pocket clip, etc.). Accessories that have not beentested for RF exposure compliance with this product may not comply with theFCC RF exposure safety guidelines and should not be used.To ensure RF exposure compliance of the badge when using the lanyard,position and maintain the call button, the speaker, and the antenna facing awayfrom the body, as illustrated in the "Getting Started with a Badge" section inthe Vocera Badge User Guide.
