Federal Communications Commission Radio Fre- quency Interference Statement Note: This equipment 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 instal- lation. This equipment 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 interfer- ence will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: z Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. z Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. z Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit dif- ferent from that to which the receiver is connected. z Consult the Panasonic Service Center or an experi- enced radio/TV technician for help. Warning To assure continued compliance, use only shielded inter- face cables when connecting to a computer or peripheral. Also, any changes or modifi cations not expressly ap- proved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment. FCC RF Exposure Warning: z This equipment is provided with PC Card slot that could be used with wireless transmitters, which will be specifi - cally recommended when they become available. Other third-party wireless transmitters have not been RF exposure evaluated for use with this computer and may not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements. <Only for model with wireless LAN/Bluetooth> z This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. z This equipment has been approved for mobile operation, and unless otherwise advised in separate supplemental instructions for individual wireless transmitter(s), requires minimum 20 cm spacing be provided between antenna(s) and all person’s body (excluding extremities of hands, wrist and feet) during wireless modes of operation. z This equipment may use multiple installed transmitters, which may be capable of simultaneous transmission. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Op- eration is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired op- eration.

This equipment complies with CFR47 Part 68 rules. On the computer is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC registration number and ringer equivalence number (REN) for this equipment. If re- quired, this information must be provided to the tele- phone company. 2. An FCC compliant telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this equipment. This equipment is designed to be connected to the telephone network or premises wiring using a compatible modular jack which is Part 68 compliant. See Installation Instruc- tions for details. 3. The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices which may be connected to the telephone line. Ex- cessive RENs on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but not all area, the sum of RENs should not ex- ceed fi ve (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company. 4. If your telephone equipment cause harm to the tele- phone network, the telephone company will notify you in advice that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But if advice notice isn’t practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to fi le a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is neces- sary. 5. The telephone company may take changes in its facili- ties, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens the t…

The limit for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE), specified in FCC §1.1310, is listed in Table 1-1. According to FCC §1.1310 and RSS-102: the criteria listed in the following table shall be used to evaluate the environmental impact of human exposure to radio-frequency (RF) radiation as specified in §1.1307(b). Frequency Range (MHz) Electric Field Strength (V/m) Magnetic Field Strength (A/m) Power Density (mW/cm 2 ) Average Time (Minutes) (A) Limits For Occupational / Control Exposures (f = frequency) 30-300 61.4 0.163 1.0 6 300-1500 ... ... f/300 6 1500-100,000 ... ... 5.0 6 (B) Limits For General Population / Uncontrolled Exposure (f = frequency) 30-300 27.5 0.073 0.2 30 300-1500 ... ... f/1500 30 1500-100,000 ... ... 1.0 30 Table 1-1. Limits for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) 1.2 EUT Description The Panasonic Model: CF-30 is a Toughbook containing Atheros WLAN and Alps Bluetooth modules. The Bluetooth module is located <20cm from the user so MPE is not applicable for this transmitter. Also, the power of the Bluetooth (23mW) is below the low threshold for SAR testing. This MPE report therefore covers the WLAN card. For this MPE evaluation the device is set to transmit from the antenna of the transmitter and the RF exposure is evaluated.

REV 3.0MPE 03/09/07 1.3 MPE Requirements Overview Three different categories of transmitters are defined by the FCC in OET Bulletin 65. These categories are fixed installation, mobile, and portable and are defined as follows: o Fixed Installations: fixed location means that the device, including its antenna, is physically secured at a permanent location and is not able to be easily moved to another location. Additionally, distance to humans from the antenna is maintained to at least 2 meters. o Mobile Devices: a mobile device is defined as a transmitting device designed to be used in other than fixed locations and to be generally used in such a way that a separation distance of at least 20 centimeters is normally maintained between …
