Antenna installations for the General Dynamics Broadband ODU shall be performed in

accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations and all national laws and regulations.

The High Power ODU and antenna system when used for vehicle installations, shall only be

installed where the vehicle is fitted with a telescopic mast. To ensure compliance with RF

Exposure rules, the mast shall be extended to achieve the required RF exposure separation

distance before being operated to ensure compliance with applicable national laws and

regulations regarding exposure to electromagnetic fields.

Any changes to the antenna installation or radio transmission equipment require a re-

evaluation of the exposures to electromagnetic fields.

Pursuant to 47 CFR Part 1, Subpart 1, subject to the provisions of section 1.1307, all

installations must be evaluated for requirements contained in Table 1, “Limits for maximum

permissible exposure,” in section 1.1310.

2GHz Band

The 2GHz Band Outdoor Unit has been assessed for compliance with FCC requirements for

antennas with gains up to 24dBi, the minimum exclusion distance required to meet the Un-

Controlled/General Public limit of 1.0mW/cm2 is 6m (20 feet) above ground level.

The exclusion distance covers the installation and operation for both fixed and vehicle

mounted installations and is relative to ground level.
