Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile
RF communications equipment and the Liberator
The Liberator is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances
are controlled. The customer or the user of the Liberator can help prevent electromagnetic interfer-
ence by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment
(transmitters) and the Liberator 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 dis-
tance (d) in meters (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmit-
ter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the trans-
mitter 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.
* This table is included as a standard requirement for equipment which has been tested to specific test
levels and over specific frequency ranges and been found compliant with regulations.
