HTC PDA Phone - Manual (Page 137)

Appendix 137
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile CDMA phone used by the public is 1.6 Watts/kg
(W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.
Normal condition only to ensure the radiative performance and safety of the interference. As with other
mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and
for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close
to the antenna during operation of the equipment.
FCC Enhanced 911 (E911) Rules
BACKGROUND
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requires wireless carriers to transmit specific latitude and
longitude location (Automatic Location Identification = ALI) information as well as “911” calls to Public Safety
Answering Points (PSAPs) to identify the location of the caller in case of emergency.
Generally, the rules require that carriers identify an E911 caller’s location within 50 meters of the actual
location for 67 percent of calls and within 150 meters of the actual location for 95 percent of calls.
TITA100’s ALI CAPABILITY
The TITA100 is an ALI-capable PDA phone equipped with a GPS (Global Positioning System) receiver
supporting a satellite-based GPS ALI-capable network to comply with the FCC’s ALI requirements.
The network compliance with the above FCC requirements is dependent on: (a) the use of digital technology
by the wireless network; (b) GPS satellite signals being able to reach the handset (such transmissions do not
always work indoors, for example) ; and (c) handset signals reaching wireless “base stations” (atmospheric and
environmental conditions may cause variations in handset receiving signal strength).
Also the transmission of the ALI information is subject, in part, to system constraints within the wireless
network to which the E911 signal is transmitted and over which UT Starcom has no control.
Finally, customers are advised that the TITA100’s ALI capability is to be used for E911 purposes only.
