Installing the PTX-PRO 2-3
PTX-PRO User and Technical Manual
Calculation steps:
1. [P] RF power input. Watts to milliwatts = Watts * 1000
2. [G] Antenna gain dBi. Numeric gain = Antilog (dBi/10)
3. [EIRP] Multiply P * G
4. [R] Centimeters to feet = Centimeters * .0328
5. Square R
6. Multiply R² * 4
π
7. [S] Divide (R² * 4
π
) into EIRP
S = Power Density in milliwatts per square centimeters.
Note
At frequencies above 1500 MHz, S must not be greater than 1.

FCC OET Bulletin 65, August 1997 - Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for
Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields
The following graph and associated table show the permissible exposure distance for various
antennas. Graphs and data will vary, based on the actual transmitter, output power, frequency,
and antenna utilized. One plot provides the permissible output of the transmitter for digital
modulation, and the other plot for analog modulation.
This information is provided, in accordance with the requirements set forth by the FCC, as a
guide for you assuming that users of this equipment are licensed and qualified to operate the
equipment per the guidelines and recommendations contained within the product user guides
and in accordance with any FCC rules that may apply.
