Important safety/compliance
information
The design of the AirCard 597E ExpressCard complies with
U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and
Industry Canada (IC) guidelines respecting safety levels of
radio frequency (RF) exposure for portable devices, which in
turn are consistent with the following safety standards previ‐
ously set by Canadian, U.S. and international standards
bodies:
•
ANSI / IEEE C95.1‐1999, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with
Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromag‐
netic Fields, 3kHz to 300 GHz
•
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measure‐
ments (NCRP) Report 86, ‐1986, Biological Effects and
Exposure Criteria for Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields
•
Health Canada, Safety Code 6, 1999, Limits of Human
Exposure to Radio frequency Electromagnetic Fields in the
Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz
•

Protection (ICNIRP) 1998, Guidelines for limiting exposure to
time‐varying electric, magnetic, and electromagnetic fields (up
to 300 GHz)
FCC ID: N7NAC597E
CAUTION: The AirCard 597E ExpressCard has been tested for
compliance with FCC / IC RF exposure limits in the laptop
computer(s) configurations with the side loading ExpressCard
slot and can be used in laptop computers with substantially
similar physical dimensions, construction, and electrical and
RF characteristics. This ExpressCard must not be co‐located or
operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
Use of this device in any other configuration may exceed the
FCC RF Exposure compliance limit. Note: If this ExpressCard
is intended for use in any other portable device, you are
responsible for separate approval to satisfy the SAR require‐
ments of Part 2.1093 of FCC rules.
WARNING (EMI) - United States FCC Information ‐ This equipment
has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
