Vercise Gevia™ Information for Prescribers
Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment
The Vercise Gevia DBS System is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated
RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the Vercise Gevia DBS System can help
prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF
communications equipment (transmitters) and the Vercise Gevia DBS System as recommended below,
according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

For transmitters operating below 150 kHz (RFID devices such as access control devices), the
recommended separation distance is at least 1.17 m. For transmitters rated at a maximum output power
not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in meters (m) can be estimated 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 affected
by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people
Hereby, Boston Scientific declares that the Vercise Gevia System is in compliance with the
essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC.
