RF Exposure Information (SAR) This device meets the government‟s requirements for exposure to radio waves. This USB Dongle 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. Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 3 ZTE AD226 User Manual 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 USB Dongle 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. The highest SAR value for the device as reported to the FCC when tested for body, as described in this user guide, is 1.45 W/kg for CDMA band, 0.604 W/kg for WIMAX band. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various USB Dongles and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement. 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 http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID: Q78-ZTEAD226. For body operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use the positions the device a minimum of 0.5 cm from the body. Use of other enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. This USB dongle transmitter is approved for use in typical laptop computers. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, this USB dongle should not be used in other devices or certain laptop and tablet computer configurations where the USB connectors on the host computer are unable to provide or ensure the necessary operating configurations intended for the device and its users or bystanders to satisfy RF exposure compliance requirements. This transmitter must not be collocated or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Limitation of Liability ZTE shall not be liable for any loss of profits or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages resulting from or arising out of or in connection with using this product, whether or not ZTE had been advised, knew or should have known the possibility of such damages. 4 Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION ZTE AD226 User Manual Chapter Getting Started Functions Functions: Data service, Connection management, etc. Specification Port USB2.0 Mode of Access WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) CDMA 2000 1X/EVDO Release 0/EVDO Release A Protocol Frequency Allocation Data Rate WiMAX 802.16e (IEEE 802.16-2005) CDMA CDMA 2000 1x / EVDO Release 0 / EVDO Release A WiMAX 2496MHz~2690MHz CDMA CDMA Cellular (UL 824MHz~849MHz,DL 869MHz~894MHz) CDMA PCS (UL 1850MHz~1910MHz,DL 1930MHz~1990MHz) WiMAX High Speed Data Peak downlink data rate of 30Mbps Peak uplink data rate of 6Mbps Average downlink data rate of 18Mbps Average uplink rate of 4Mbps CDMA 1X Packet Data (Release 0) *Peak data rate is as remark Reverse Link 153kbps CDMA 1X-EVDO Packet Data (Rev. 0) *Peak data rate is as remark Reverse Link 153kbps CDMA 1X-EVDO Packet Data (Rev.
