SB6120 to Minimize its Impact on the Environment Motorolas modems comply with international environmental and energy. efficient standards, including ENERGY STAR qualified power supplies, European Code of Conduct compliance for both the power supply and modem, and lead-free circuit boards as certified by RoHS compliance. Packaging The SB6120 uses Motorolas new, environmentally friendly package design; our modems ship in single pack boxes. By both eliminating the suspension plastic and reducing the box size, Motorola is helping to reduce the environmental impact of the SB6120. As an even more impactful step, operators may choose to receive the products in a bulk package, thus reducing the extra waste and transport weight associated with single packages. Motorolas single and bulk packaging solutions eliminate excess installation CDs and USB cables. Additionally, customers have the option to reduce the number of cables shipped with each unit. The packaging is 100% recyclable. Our packaging is now labeled with standard recycling codes (such as ) to make it easier for our customers to identify recycling opportunities.
