Appendix B Safety and Usage Tips
About Bluetooth and Health
Bluetooth wireless technology allows you to use short-range radio signals to
connect a variety of devices, such as mobile phones, Pocket PCs, notebook
computers, printers, LAN access points, and many other devices at home or
work. These radio signals replace the cables that have traditionally
connected these devices. Bluetooth products have small radio transmitters
and receivers. Output power is normally very low, only 1 mW (1/1000 of a
watt). This gives a working range of approximately 10 meters. The
maximum exposure levels from Bluetooth products are far below
recommended safety guidelines. At most, typical Bluetooth devices (1mW)
reach only one percent of the prescribed safety levels.
