SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 7 Conventions Used in This Guide This section describes the text and syntax conventions used throughout this guide. Text Conventions This guide uses the following text conventions: • Italic is used to introduce new terms. • Bold is used to indicate what you click or type in a graphical user interface (for example, commands names or text being entered). In examples showing user interaction with the command-line interface, bold is used to indicate user input as opposed to command output. • A monospace font is used for code elements (variable names, data values, function names, and so forth), command lines, scripts, and source code listings. • Italic-monospace is used for replaceable elements and placeholders within code listings. Syntax Conventions This guide uses the following conventions when showing syntax: • Angle brackets, “<“ and “>”, enclose mandatory elements. You must enter these elements. For example: ping <IP-address> • Square brackets, “[“ and “]”, enclose optional elements. You can omit these elements. For example: show filter [filter-table-number] Square brackets are also used to show the current value of parameters in the output of some commands. • A vertical bar, “|”, separates choices. For example: show bridge [cache | port] SkyPilot SkyAccess DualBand Installation 9 Introduction This chapter provides an overview of the SkyPilot Networks solution, describes the SkyPilot devices, and then illustrates how they combine to form a mesh network.

RF Exposure Requirements RF Exposure Requirements: §90.1217, §1.1307(b)(1) and §1.1307(b)(2): Systems operating under the provisions of this section shall be operated in a manner that ensures that the public is not exposed to radio frequency energy levels in excess of the Commission’s guidelines. RF Radiation Exposure Limit: §1.1310: As specified in this section, the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) Limit shall be used to evaluate the environmental impact of human exposure to radiofrequency (RF) radiation as specified in Sec. 1.1307(b), except in the case of portable devices which shall be evaluated according to the provisions of Sec. 2.1093 of this chapter. MPE Limit Calculation: EUT’s operating frequencies @ 4940-4990 MHz ; highest conducted power = 21.35dBm (peak) therefore, Limit for Uncontrolled exposure: 1 mW/cm 2 or 10 W/m 2 EUT maximum antenna gain = 18dBi. Equation from page 18 of OET 65, Edition 97-01 EUT with 18dBi Antenna S = PG / 4πR 2 or R = √PG / 4πS where, S = Power Density (1 mW/cm 2 ) P = Power Input to antenna (136.45mW) G = Antenna Gain (63.09 numeric) R = (136.45*63.09/4*3.14) 1/2 = (8609.155/12.56) 1/2 = 26.1cm _ in order to comply with 1 mW/cm 2
