Recommended separation distances between
portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the AutoCAT
The AutoCAT
®
2 Series is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which
radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the AutoCAT
Series can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum
distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters)
and the AutoCAT
®
2 Series as recommended below, according to the maximum output
power of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended
separation distance d in meters (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable
to the frequency of the transmitter, where p is the maximum output power rating of
the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency
range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation
is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
