Test Level
Portable and mobile RF communications
equipment should be used no closer to any
part of the OM-8, including cables, than the
recommended separation distance calculated
from the equation applicable to the frequency
of the transmitter.
Recommended separation distance
d=1.2 √P

IEC 61000-4-3 80 MHz to 2.5 GHz
d=2.3 √P 800 MHz to 2.5 GHz

Where P is the maximum output power rating

of the transmitter in watts (w) according to
the transmitter manufacturer and d is the
recommended separation distance in meters (m).

Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as

determined by an electromagnetic site survey a,
should be less than the compliance level in each
frequency range b.

Interference may occur in the vicinity of

equipment marked with the following symbol:

Note 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
Note 2: These quidelines may not apply in all situtions. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and
reflection from structures, objects and people.
a Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land
mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically
with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic
site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the OM-8 is used
exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the OM-8 should be observed to verify normal operation. If
abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating
the OM-8.
b Over the frequency range 150 KHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

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 in watts (w) according to 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.
