Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Declaration of Conformity
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital , pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiated
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Caution:
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment.
FCC RF Exposure Information (SAR)
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 for wireless device employs a unit of measurement known as the 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 accepted by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the
highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well
below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power
levels so as to use only the poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a
wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. SAR compliance has been established
in the host product(s) (laptop computers), tested at 5mm separation distance to the human body,
and tested with USB slot configurations including Horizontal-UP, Horizontal-Down,
Vertical-Front, Vertical-Back. This device can be used in host product(s) with substantially
similar physical dimensions, construction, and electrical and RF characteristics. The highest SAR
value, tested per FCC RF exposure guidelines for USB dongle, as described in this user guide, is
1.33 W/kg. 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 file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: SRQ-MF860E.
