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.
