Absorption Rate, or SAR, which refers to the
rate at which the body absorbs RF energy. The
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has
established a SAR limit for mobile phones of 1.6
W/kg, which applies in the United States and
other countries that follow the FCC's SAR limit.
This limit is based upon standards developed by
expert non-government organizations, such as the
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE) and the National Council on Radiation
Protection and Measurements (NCRP), and input
from other federal agencies such as the FDA and
EPA. In countries that follow the Council of the
European Union, the SAR limit is 2.0 W/kg.
SAR testing is conducted with the device placed
in common operating positions (e.g., held against
the head, worn on the body) and transmitting
at its highest certified power level in each
frequency band of operation. Because the device
is transmitting at its highest certified power level,
SAR tests capture a worst-case operating scenario
and therefore often do not reflect the amount
of RF exposure during normal, everyday use.
More information on SAR testing is available on
the FCC's website at http://www.fcc.gov/guides/

HTC Corp. submitted SAR test results
demonstrating compliance with the FCC's SAR
limit for wireless devices as part of the FCC's
equipment certification process for this device.
These results can be accessed via the FCC's
equipment authorization database (found
at http://transition.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/) by
searching for the device's FCC ID: NM80P9O300.
This device's maximum SAR values as reported to
the FCC are:
