Specific Absorption Rate Data

This model wireless phone meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves.

Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government and by the Canadian regulatory authorities. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age or health.

The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC and by the Canadian regulatory authorities is 1.6 W/kg.1 Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC and by Industry Canada with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station, the lower the power output.

1.In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.

K1m specifications

The Motorola K1m, a member of the popular RAZR family, emerged as a stylish flip phone that captured attention in the mid-2000s. Noted for its sleek design, the K1m offered a blend of functionality and aesthetics that appealed to a wide range of users. One of its most striking features was its ultra-thin profile, measuring just 0.5 inches in thickness, distinguishing it in an era where bulkiness was more common.

At the core of the K1m's appeal was its vibrant 2.2-inch display, offering a resolution of 176 x 220 pixels. This screen showcased not only the phone's user interface but also vibrant images and videos, enhancing the overall multimedia experience. The external display, although smaller, provided essential information such as incoming calls, battery life, and signal strength without needing to open the phone.

The K1m was equipped with a 1.3-megapixel camera, allowing users to capture moments on the go. While the camera did not boast advanced features compared to modern standards, it was adequate for casual photography, supporting basic photo editing features and the ability to record video. The phone also supported video playback, making it a convenient device for media consumption, albeit with limited storage capacity.

Connectivity was another crucial aspect of the Motorola K1m. It operated on CDMA technology, providing reliable network performance. The device supported various messaging options, including SMS and MMS, allowing users to stay connected with ease. Bluetooth technology also added to its convenience, enabling hands-free communication and the transfer of files between devices.

One of the K1m’s standout characteristics was its battery life. With a talk time of up to 4 hours and a standby time of roughly 10 days, the K1m was designed to handle long periods of usage without frequent recharging. This made it particularly appealing to users who were frequently on the move.

In addition to its technical specifications, the Motorola K1m featured a robust keypad, enhancing the overall user experience. The keys were well-spaced and easy to press, making typing messages and navigating the interface smooth and efficient.

In conclusion, the Motorola K1m exemplified the blend of style and function. With its sleek design, multimedia capabilities, and long battery life, it carved out a niche in the competitive mobile phone market of its time. While modern smartphones have since overshadowed its capabilities, the K1m remains a nostalgic representation of early mobile technology.
