equipment and the PillCam capsules
The PillCam capsules are intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated
RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the PillCam capsules can help
prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and
mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the PillCam capsules 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.
