Separation Distances
The DDU-100 is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF
disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the DDU-100 can help prevent
electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF
communications equipment (transmitters) and the
DDU-100 as recommended below, according to
the maximum output of the communications equipment.

and mobile RF communications equipment and the DDU-100

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in
meters (m) can be determined 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: As 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
Note 2: The ISM (industrial, scientific 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 80 MHz to 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 affected by absorption
and reflection from structures, objects and people.
