Introduction
RF Radiation Hazard Area
Since a person above deck may not know which direction the antenna
is pointing, you should always observe the minimum safe distance to
prevent RF radiation exposure. Within the antenna’s elevation range,
the minimum safe distance is 32 feet (10 m). No hazard exists directly
below the antenna.
Figure 1-1 Minimum Safe Distance to Avoid Risk of RF Radiation Exposure
NOTE: You can set up no-transmit zones to inhibit transmissions within
areas frequented by passengers and/or crew. See
for details.
CAUTION
RF Radiation Hazard
The antenna transmits up to 3 watts of radio frequency (RF) energy
that is potentially harmful. Whenever the system is powered on,
make sure everyone stays more than 32 feet (10 m) away from the
antenna. No hazard exists directly below the antenna.
