Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless
Phones
TheSARvaluecorrespondstotherelativeamountofRFenergyabsorbedintotheheadofauser
ofawirelesshandset.
TheSARvalueofaphoneistheresultofanextensivetesting,measuringandcalculationprocess.
ItdoesnotrepresenthowmuchRFthephoneemits.Allphonemodelsaretestedattheirhighest
valueinstrictlaboratorysettings.Butwheninoperation,theSARofaphonecanbesubstantially
lessthanthelevelreportedtotheFCC.Thisisbecauseofavarietyoffactorsincludingitsproximity
toabasestationantenna,phonedesignandotherfactors.Whatisimportanttorememberisthat
eachphonemeetsstrictfederalguidelines.VariationsinSARsdonotrepresentavariationin
safety.
Allphonesmustmeetthefederalstandard,whichincorporatesasubstantialmarginofsafety.As
statedabove,variationsinSARvaluesbetweendifferentmodelphonesdonotmeanvariationsin
safety.SARvaluesatorbelowthefederalstandardof1.6W/kgareconsideredsafeforusebythe
public.
ThehighestreportedSARvaluesoftheALCATELONETOUCHFLINGare:
Head:1.075W/kg(1g)
Body-worn:1.473W/kg(1g)
Forbody-wornoperation,thisdevicehasbeentestedandmeetstheFCCRFexposureguidelines
whenusedwithanaccessorythatcontainsnometalandthatpositionsthehandsetaminimumof
1.5cmfromtheuser’sbody.

Using Your Phone with a Hearing Aid Device
AnumberofBoostMobilephoneshavebeentestedforhearingaiddevicecompatibility.When
