Guidance and manufacturer’s declaration – electromagnetic immunity
The Otoport is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below. The customer or the
user of the Otoport should ensure that it is used in such an environment.

Portable and mobile RF communications equipment
should be used no closer to any part of the Otoport,
including cables, than the recommended separation
distance calculated from the equation applicable to the
frequency of the transmitter.

Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as
determined by an electromagnetic site survey,

should be less than the compliance level in each
frequency range.

Interference may occur in the vicinity of
equipment marked with the following symbol:
Notes:
1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation
is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
(a) Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones
and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be
predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF
transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength
in the location in which the Otoport is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above,
the Otoport should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed,
additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the Otoport.
(b) Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
