Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Certification
Information
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the exposure limits for Radio Frequency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S.
Government.
These FCC RF exposure limits are derived from the recommendations of
two expert organizations: the National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers (IEEE). In both cases, the recommendations were developed by
scientific and engineering experts drawn from industry, government, and
academia after extensive reviews of the scientific literature related to the
biological effects of RF energy.
The RF exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile phones employs
a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The
SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy by the human
