RF Warning Label on ODU
Description
within 0˚- 180˚ of the antenna elevation range
Antenna mounting and substitution
The antenna supplied by the manufacturer or radio dealer must not be mounted at a location such that during
radio transmission, any person or persons can come closer than the indicated minimum safe distance to the
antenna: 1.0 m (3.3ft).
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.
Base Station Installation: The antenna should be fixed-mounted on an outdoor permanent structure. RF
Exposure compliance must be addressed at the time of installation.
You may contact your radio dealer or the manufacturer for further instructions. 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 Occupational/Controlled
Exposure Environment, for work-related use. Transmit only when person(s) are at least the minimum distance
from the properly installed, externally mounted antenna.
If you have any concerns about the adequacy of the mounting or support for the Iridium Pilot Land Station
device, seek advice from a structural engineer or other qualified individual.
Exposure to radio frequency energy (RF) from the antenna may cause thermal injuries including
tissue damage from increased heating and body temperature. Keep everyone at a safe distance
from the antenna when the system power is ON. Personnel must maintain a minimum separation
distance of 1.0 m (3.3ft) from the unit and installers must place ODU transmitter in a manner
to maintain minimum spacing requirement. Failure to do so could result in exposure to radio
frequency energy (RF) transmitted from the ODU that could result in serious injury or death.
