Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless

Phones

The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of

RF energy absorbed in 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 i700 are:

Head: 1.36 W/kg; Body-worn: 1.21 W/kg
