Recommended Separation Distances
The EndoPAT
TM
x is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated
radiofrequency disturbances are controlled.
The user and/or installer of the unit can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a
minimum distance between portable and mobile radiofrequency communications equipment
(emitters) and the EndoPAT
TM
x, according to the maximum output power of the equipment, as
recommended in the table below.

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.
