Recommended separation distances between portable
and mobile RF communications equipment and the ET1519/1919LM
The ET1519/1919LM is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances
are controlled. The customer or the user of the ET1519/1919LM can help prevent electromagnetic
interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications (equipment)
and the ET1519/1919LM 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 distanced in
metres(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.
