Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals (SA)
A cordless telephone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limit for
exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission of the US government and Canada.
These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and established
permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. These
guidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by both
US and international standard bodies. These standards include a
substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all
persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standards for cordless telephones employs a unit of
measure known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit set by the FCC and Canada is 1.6W/kg averaged over one
gram of tissue.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions
specified by the FCC with the phone 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 phone while operating can be well below
the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to
operate at multiple power levels. Before a phone model is available
for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that
it does not exceed the limit established by government-adopted
requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions
and locations (for example, at the ear and worn on the body) as
required by the FCC for each model.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions, they all meet the government
requirement for safe exposure.
For body worn operation, to maintain compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines, use only approved accessories. When
carrying the telephone while it is on, use only the specific belt clip
that has been tested for compliance.
Use of non-approved accessories may violate the FCC RF
exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
