Antenna safety instructions
Use only manufacturer supplied antennas.
Antenna minimum safe distance: 1 m/ 3.2 ft
Antenna gain
Directional, with maximum gain of 11.25 dBi (with reference to isotropic).
The Federal Communications Commission has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to RF
(Radio Frequency) energy which is below the OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Act) limits.
Antenna mounting
The antenna supplied by the manufacturer must be located such that during radio transmission, no
person or persons can come closer than the above indicated minimum safe distance to the front
face of the antenna, i.e. 1 m./ 3.2 ft
L'antenne fournie par le fabricant doit être placée de telle sorte que, durant les transmissions radio,
personne ni aucun groupe de personnes ne puisse s'approcher à une distance inférieur à la distance
de sécurité minimal indiquée ci-dessus, c.-à-d., 1 m/ 3.2 ft.
To comply with current FCC RF Exposure limits, the antenna must be installed at or exceeding the
minimum safe distance shown above, and in accordance with the requirements of the antenna
manufacturer or supplier.
Radiation warning
WARNING!
You, as the qualified end-user of this radio device, must control the exposure conditions of
bystanders to ensure the minimum separation distance (above) is maintained between the antenna
and nearby persons, for satisfying RF Exposure compliance. The operation of this transmitter must
satisfy the requirements of General Population/ Uncontrolled Environment. Only use the terminal
when persons are at least the minimum distance from the front face of the antenna.
98-148232-K
Maintain a separation distance of at least 1 m/ 3.2 ft from
the front face of the antenna to a person. This safety
distance is based on a radiation level of 4.1W/m
