It might sound surprising, but installing our mobile phone amplification system can actually reduce the radiation in your building.
Mobile phones emit electromagnetic energy, and we often carry these devices close to our bodies—in our pockets or jackets—exposing ourselves to this radiation constantly. But what kind of radiation is this?
The strength of mobile phone radiation is measured by the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR).
The SAR value indicates the maximum amount of electromagnetic waves a phone can transmit to our bodies. Each device has a different SAR value. A higher SAR value means more energy is radiated to our bodies. For example, the iPhone 11 Pro Max falls into class C of the SAR values.
European guidelines state that the SAR value of a device should not exceed 2.0 Watt/KG. Governments, the European Union, and the World Health Organisation (WHO) also recommend using mobile phones mindfully to minimize radiation exposure (e.g., moderate use, using earphones).
When your phone has a weak signal, it emits more electromagnetic waves to connect to the network. If the network is unreachable, the phone uses maximum energy to find it. Therefore, in buildings with poor network coverage, there’s more mobile phone radiation.
Belgian providers advise making calls in areas with good network coverage to reduce radiation.
Mercuron’s mobile phone signal amplification system ensures optimal signal strength in commercial buildings. We install antennas that connect to the GSM mast through our amplification system, providing perfect coverage. The radiation from these antennas (1 milliwatt) is much lower than that from a WiFi installation.
Thanks to these antennas, mobile devices can use minimal transmission power, emitting up to 50 times less radiation than in areas with poor reception. This significantly benefits health and also extends your device’s battery life by using less energy to maintain a connection.
Venturing into nature without a cell signall. This sounds liberating, but think twice before you do this!
Some materials should be used as little as possible when constructing a new building.
Thanks to ASTRID, the emergency services can be reached anywhere. We will go into this in more detail.
Mercuron, a Belgian company, specializes in wireless communication. With our expertise in radio waves, we create ASTRID and mobile phone signal amplifiers from the ground up.
