Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications
equipment and the TIMS MVP
™
System
The TIMS MVP
™
System is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which
radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the TIMS MVP
™
System
can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between
portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the TIMS MVP
™
System
as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications
equipment.
WARNING:
Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as
antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any
part of the TIMS MVP
™
System, including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise,
degradation of the performance of this equipment could result.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended
separation distance
d
in meters (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.
