\"\"<\/a>ISED has published Issue 2 of RSS-247, Digital Transmission Systems (DTSs), Frequency Hopping Systems (FHSs) and Licence-Exempt<\/span> Local Area Network (LE-LAN<\/span>) Devices<\/cite>, which replaces RSS-247<\/span>, Issue 1<\/span>, dated May 2015<\/span>.<\/p>\n

This was published on 23 February 2017, after which there is a six month transition period. After this applications for certification must use RSS-247 Issue 2.<\/p>\n

The changes include:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. new section 3.3: state the requirement for emissions that fall within restricted frequency bands to comply with the provisions in RSS-Gen<\/span>, General Requirements for Compliance of Radio Apparatus<\/a><\/cite>;<\/li>\n
  2. section 5.4(b): reinstated the former e.i.r.p.<\/span> limit for frequency hopping systems operating in the band 2400-2483.5\u00a0MHz<\/span>, which employ a hopset with less than 75\u00a0channels<\/span>;<\/li>\n
  3. section 6.2: add a clarification to ensure that emissions that fall within restricted frequency bands shall comply with the provisions in RSS-Gen<\/span>;<\/li>\n
  4. section 6.2: state the measurement method for power and unwanted emission limits for licence-exempt<\/span> local area network devices and digital transmission systems operating in the 5 GHz<\/span> band;<\/li>\n
  5. section 6.2.1 and 6.2.2: add a provision to allow original equipment manufacturer (OEM) devices installed in road vehicles to operate in the band 5150-5250\u00a0MHz<\/span> with an e.i.r.p. limit of 30 mW<\/span> or 1.76 + 10 log10<\/sub>B<\/span>, dBm, whichever is less stringent;<\/li>\n
  6. section 6.2.1.2: clarify the requirement for devices operating in the band 5150-5250\u00a0MHz<\/span>, which have bandwidth that falls into the band 5250-5350 MHz<\/span>;<\/li>\n
  7. section 6.2.2.2 (b): permit the requisite “for indoor use only” notice for equipment operating in the band 5250-5350 MHz<\/span> to be included in the user manual;<\/li>\n
  8. section 6.2.2.3: apply the requirement of e.i.r.p. at different elevations for equipment operating in the band 5250-5350 MHz<\/span> to outdoor fixed devices only;<\/li>\n
  9. section 6.2.2.3: limit e.i.r.p. of OEM devices installed in road vehicles to 30 mW<\/span> or 1.76 + 10 log10<\/sub>B<\/span>, dBm, whichever is less stringent;<\/li>\n
  10. section 6.2.2.3: allow equipment, other than outdoor fixed devices, operating in the band 5250-5350 MHz<\/span> having e.i.r.p. greater than 200 mW<\/span> to either comply with the e.i.r.p. elevation mask or to include a firmware feature to reduce their e.i.r.p. permanently should it be requested by the Department;<\/li>\n
  11. section 6.2.3.2: allow equipment operating in the band 5650-5725 MHz<\/span> with bandwidth overlapping the band 5725-5850 MHz<\/span> to meet the emission limit of \u221227\u00a0dBm\/MHz e.i.r.p.<\/span> at 5850 MHz<\/span>;<\/li>\n
  12. section 6.2.4.2: modify the unwanted emission limits for LE-LAN<\/span> devices and DTSs operating in the band 5725-5850 MHz<\/span>;<\/li>\n
  13. section 6.2.4.2: add a transition date for certification of LE-LAN<\/span> devices and DTSs operating in the band 5725-5850 MHz<\/span> to have unwanted emissions comply with either provisions in section 5.5<\/span> or section 6.2.4.2<\/span>;<\/li>\n
  14. section 6.2.4(b): add a transition date for manufacture, importation, distribute, lease, offer for sales, or sales of LE-LAN<\/span> devices and DTSs operating in the band 5725-5850 MHz<\/span> which do not comply with provisions in section 6.2.4(b)<\/span>; and<\/li>\n
  15. Annex A: delete the word “pre-installation” to clarify that the verification of e.i.r.p. compliance at different elevations for devices operating in the band 5250-5350\u00a0MHz<\/span> needs to be done at the time of certification (before installation); the verification of compliance must be submitted with the test report for equipment requiring certification.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
