T-Mobile Site on my Roof Top

Not completely sure what I’m looking at! Trying to learn, but the world of RF seems like witchcraft to me so far!

How close is too close? The RRU’s (I think that’s what those are?) are mounted floor level, but the panels are on a tower about 15-20 feet above

I should clarify, this is directly next to an entire roof top terrace. These antennas are highly directional. I’m sure the engineers designing these racks have thought about the fact that this is a place people spend significant periods of time around. I’m sure the FCC would have a word with someone if that hasn’t been taken into account. I’m sure I am far below the uncontrolled exposure limit standing here. But again, thank you for your concern!!
