We at Orbic take our social responsibility seriously and are committed to the cause of serving our environment. It is in keeping with these commitments that we are proud to state that Orbic mobile hotspots are RoHS compliant.
FCC SAR Warning
This model mobile hotspot meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. This mobile hotspot is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government: The exposure standard for wireless mobile hotspots employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/ kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating (10 mm) positions accepted by the FCC with the mobile hotspot transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The SAR guideline includes a considerable safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons regardless of age and health. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model mobile hotspot with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model mobile hotspot is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of https://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on: FCC ID: 2ABGH-R500L5 or at http://www.orbic.us/
FCC Statement
This Product complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the followingtwo conditions:
- This Product may not cause harmful interference, and
- This Product must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
NOTE 1:
This Product has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This Product generates uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this Product does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the Product off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more
of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
NOTE 2:
Orbic or the manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV interference
caused by unauthorized modifications to the Product. Such modifications could
void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Data transmission is always initiated by software, which is then passed down
through the MAC, through the digital and analog baseband, and finally to the
RF chip. Several special packets are initiated by the MAC. These are the only
ways the digital baseband portion will turn on the RF transmitter, which it
then turns off at the end of the packet. Therefore, the transmitter will be on
only while one of the aforementioned packets is being transmitted. In other
words, this device automatically discontinues transmission in case of either
absence of information to transmit or operational failure.
