setup, programming, or internal modifications.
To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the following antenna installation and device operat-
ing configurations must be satisfied:
The device is to be installed and operated at a "fixed location." The term "fixed location" means that the device is
physically secured at one location and is not able to be easily moved to another location. The antenna system to be
used with this device must be installed outdoors, on a permanent structure, such that a minimum separation of 6
meters (19.7 feet) is maintained from any area where persons may be walking, sitting, and/or working.
If the above antenna requirements are followed, this FCC device is considered categorically excluded from routine
RF exposure evaluation for demonstrating compliance.
The installer of the antenna to be used with this device may be required to perform an MPE evaluation and an
Environmental Assessment (EA) of the location at the time of licensing per CFR 47 Part 1.1307. Fixed mounted
antennae that are co-located with other antennae must satisfy the co-location requirements of Part 1.1307.
