Antenna Spacing Requirements For User Safety; Regulatory Approvals; Rlxib: Atex Approval - ProSoft RadioLinx RLXIB-IESC User Manual

Antenna spacing requirements for user safety

It is important to keep the radio's antenna a safe distance from the user. To meet the requirements of FCC part
2.1091 for radio frequency radiation exposure, this radio must be used in such a way as to guarantee at least 20 cm
between the antenna and users. Greater distances are required for high-gain antennas. The FCC requires a
minimum distance of 1 mW *cm2 power density from the user (or 20 cm, whichever is greater).
If a specific application requires proximity of less than 20 cm, the application must be approved through the FCC for
compliance to part 2.1093.
The installer of this radio equipment must ensure that the antenna is located or pointed in such a way that it does not
emit RF fields in excess of Health Canada limits for the general population; refer to Safety Code 6, obtainable from
Health Canada.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the
equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that required for successful communication.
