FCC Caution.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information:
This Wireless Router meets the government's requirements for exposure to radio
waves. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent
scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies.
The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all
persons regardless of age or health.
FCC RF Exposure Information and Statement The SAR limit of USA (FCC) is 1.6
W/kg averaged over one gram of tissue. Device types: A1(FCC ID: R7FA1 has also
been tested against this SAR limit. The highest SAR value reported under this standard
during product certification for use at the body is 0.743W/kg. This device was tested for
typical body-worn operations with the back of the handset kept 0.5cm from the body.
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, use accessories that
maintain a 0.5cm separation distance between the user's body and the back of the
handset. The use of belt clips, holsters and similar accessories should not contain
metallic components in its assembly. The use of accessories that do not satisfy these
requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, and should be
avoided.
