RF emissions CISPR 11 Group 1 The FT55 series uses RF energy only for its internal function. Therefore, its RF emissi-
ons are very low and are not likely to cause any interference in nearby electronic equip-
ment.

Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the FT55
The
FT55
series is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of
the
FT55
series can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications
equipment (transmitters) and the
FT55
series 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 determined 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 separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is aected by absorption and reflection from structures,
objects and people.
