General Antenna Installation Warning
1. All antenna installation and servicing is to be performed by qualified
technical personnel only. When servicing the antenna, or working at
distances closer than those listed below, ensure the transmitter has been
disabled.
2. Typically, the antenna connected to the transmitter is a directional (high
gain) antenna, fixed-mounted on the side or top of a building, or on a tower.
Depending upon the
application and the gain of the antenna, the total
composite power could exceed 90 watts ERP. The antenna location should be
such that only qualified technical personnel can access it, and that under
normal operating conditions no other person can touch the antenna or
approach within 0.6 meters of the antenna.
You can see below a table showing the Antenna Gain versus Recommended
Safety Distance:
Antenna Gain
0-5 dBi
5-10 dBi
10-16.5 dBi
Minimum RF safety distance
0.6 meters
1.06 meters
2.3 meters

The FCC has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to
radio frequency electromagnetic energy. Proper use of this radio modem
results in exposure below government limits. The following precautions are
recommended:

(7.8 inches) of the antenna.
