2.2 COMPLIANCE WITH RF EXPOSURE STANDARDS
Your Harris Unity mobile two-way radio is designed and tested to comply with a number of national and
international standards and guidelines (listed below) regarding human exposure to RF electromagnetic
energy. This radio complies with the IEEE and ICNIRP exposure limits for occupational/controlled RF
exposure environment at duty factors of up to 50% talk-50% listen and is authorized by the FCC for
occupational use. In terms of measuring RF energy for compliance with the FCC exposure guidelines,
your radio antenna radiates measurable RF energy only while it is transmitting (talking), not when it is
receiving (listening) or in standby mode.
Your Harris Unity mobile two-way radio complies with the following RF energy exposure standards and
guidelines:
• United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR §§
2 sub-part J.
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE)
C95.1-2005.
• Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-2005.
• IC standard RSS-102, Issue 2, 2005: “Spectrum Management and Telecommunications Radio
Standards Specification. Radiofrequency Exposure Compliance of Radio communication Apparatus
(All Frequency Bands).
CAUTION
Table 2-1 lists the recommended minimum lateral distance for a controlled environment
and for unaware bystanders in an uncontroll
ed environment, from transmitting types of
antennas (i.e., monopoles over a ground plane, or dipoles) at rated radio power for
mobile radios installed in a vehicle. Transmit only when unaware bystanders are at least
the uncontrolled recommended minimum lat
eral distance away from the transmitting
antenna.
