Sony Xperia 10 Plus SAR - Page 82

Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information United States THIS PHONE MODEL HAS BEEN CERTIFIED IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES. The I3223 mobile phone has been designed to comply with the applicable safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed to not exceed the limits of exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by governmental authorities. These limits establish permitted levels of RF energy exposure for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by international scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation in scientific studies. The standards include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all individuals, regardless of age and health. The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). Tests for SAR are conducted using standardised methods with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all used frequency bands. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phone models, they are all designed to meet the relevant guidelines for exposure to radio waves. The highest SAR value as reported to the authorities for this phone model when tested for use by the ear is 0.92 W/kg and when worn on the body is 0.63 W/kg and for WiFi hotspot mode is 1.12 W/kg. For body-worn operation, the phone has been tested when positioned a minimum of 15 mm from the body without any metal parts in the vicinity of the phone or when properly used with an appropriate accessory and worn on the body. For devices which include "WiFi hotspot" functionality, SAR measurements for the device operating in WiFi hotspot mode were taken using a separation distance of 10 mm. Use of third-party accessories may result in different SAR levels than those reported. Before a phone model is available for sale to the public in the US, it must be tested and certified by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and 2 Internet version. For personal use only.
