Power.This radiation may be hazardous to humans close to the antenna.
During transmission, make sure that nobody gets closer than the recommended minimum safety
distance.
On the
SAILOR 150 FleetBroadband
, the minimum safety distance to the
antenna panel on the focal line is 0.6 m, based on a radiation level of
10 W/m
2
. The radiation level is 100 W/m
2
at a distance of 0.2 m from the
antenna panel. Refer to the drawing below.
