The aim of this study is to evaluate the energy density levels of internet network towers in Mosul city that operate in the 5 GHz frequency band, and then compare the observed energy density levels to national and international standards for radiation protection. In this study, the HF-B8G instrument used to measure the energy density of electromagnetic radiation. The data collected from Internet network towers from both the right and left sides of Mosul city, with the towers' locations determined using the Global Positioning System (GPS). The results of field researches showed that radiofrequency radiation levels are significantly lower than the nationally and globally allowed limits. The highest average power density (PD) within the frequency band (5GH) for the left and right sides of Mosul, respectively, was 0.005362W/m2 and 0.003516W/m2, while the highest recorded value for max power density was 0.00848W/m2 on the left side and 0.007045W/m2 on the right side of the city. The radiation power values recorded at distances of 10, 25, 50, 75,100 meters from the Internet towers, with the results were 0.00149W/m2, 0.017427W/m2, 0.004144W/m2, 0.002041W/m2 and 0.000136W/m2 respectively
