3. What kinds of phones are the subject

of this update?

Theterm‘wirelessphone’refershere

tohandheldwirelessphoneswithbuiltin

antennas,oftencalled‘cell’,‘mobile’,or

‘PCS’phones.Thesetypesofwireless

phonescanexposetheusertomeasurable

radiofrequencyenergy(RF)becauseof

theshortdistancebetweenthephoneand

theuser’shead.TheseRFexposuresare

limitedbyFCCsafetyguidelinesthatwere

developedwiththeadviceoftheFDAand

otherfederalhealthandsafetyagencies.

Whenthephoneislocatedatgreater

distancesfromtheuser,theexposureto

RFisdrasticallylowerbecauseaperson’s

RFexposuredecreasesrapidly

withincreasingdistancefromthesource.

Theso-called‘cordlessphones,’which

haveabaseunitconnectedtothe

telephonewiringinahouse,typically

operateatfarlowerpowerlevels,andthus

produceRFexposuresfarbelowtheFCC

safetylimits.

done already?
