Recommended Separation Distances between Portable and
Mobile RF Communications Equipment and This Device
The device is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF
disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of this device can help prevent
electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF
communications equipment (transmitters) and this device 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 of the transmitter manufacturer.
Note 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
Note 2: The ISM (industrial, scientic and medical) bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz are 6.765 MHz to 6.795 MHz;
13.553 MHz to 13.567 MHz; 26.957 MHz to 27.283 MHz; and 40.66 MHz to 40.70 MHz.
Note 3: An additional factor of 10/3 is used in calculating the recommended separation distance for transmitters in the
ISM frequency bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz and in the frequency range of 80 MHz and 2.5 GHz to decrease the
likelihood that mobile/portable communications equipment could cause interference if it is inadvertently brought into
patient areas.
Note 4: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is aected by absorption and
reection from structures, objects and people.
