The  applicable  ISEDC  power  density  exposure  limit  for  RF  energy  in  unlicensed  bands  is  0.02619  *  (f^ 
(0.6834)), where f is the lowest frequency of the supported band. For licensed bands, the power density 
exposure limit is 0.6455 * (f^ (0.5)), where f is the lowest frequency of the supported band. 

Calculation of power density and distance 

The following calculation is based on the ANSI IEEE C95.1-1991 method, as that it provides a worst-case 
analysis. Details of the assessment to EN50383:2002 can be provided, if required. 

Peak power density in the far field of a radio frequency point source is calculated as follows: 

 

 

 Maximum average transmit power capability of the radio, in W 

 total Tx gain as a factor, converted from dB 

 power density (W/m²) 

 Distance from point source, in cm (Centimeters)

Calculated distances and power compliance margins 

Table 4 displays power density and minimum safe separation distance from point source for each 

frequency band and antenna combination for the USA and Canada. These are conservative distances 

that include compliance margins.  

Cambium  Networks  Enterprise  Wi-Fi  AP  adheres  to  all  applicable  EIRP  limits  for  transmit  power  when 

operating in MIMO mode. Separation distances and compliance margins include compensation for both 

transmitters.
