Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the
PLEX® Elite 9000
The PLEX® Elite 9000 is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF distur-
bances are controlled. The customer or the user of the PLEX® Elite 9000 can help prevent electromagnetic
interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications
equipment (transmitters) and the PLEX® Elite 9000 as recommended below, according to the maximum
output power of the communications equipment.

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 higher frequency applies. Note 2: These guidelines may not apply in
all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects
and people.
