pmp-0047 (December 2012)
A European Commission decision, implemented by Member States on 31 October 2005, makes the frequency band
5470-5725 MHz available in all EU Member States for wireless access systems. Under this decision, the
designation of Canopy 5.4GHz products become “Class 1 devices” and these do not require notification under
article 6, section 4 of the R&TTE Directive. Consequently, these 5.4GHz products are only marked with the
symbol and may be used in any member state.
UK Notification
The 5.8 GHz connectorized product has been notified for operation in the UK, and when operated in accordance
with instructions for use it is compliant with UK Interface Requirement IR2007. For UK use, installations must
conform to the requirements of IR2007 in terms of EIRP spectral density against elevation profile above the local
horizon in order to protect Fixed Satellite Services. The frequency range 5795-5815 MHz is assigned to Road
Transport & Traffic Telematics (RTTT) in the U.K. and shall not be used by FWA systems in order to protect
RTTT devices. UK licensing specifies that radiolocation services shall be protected by a Dynamic Frequency
Selection (DFS) mechanism to prevent co-channel operation in the presence of radar signals.
Brazil Notification
For compliant operation in the 5.4 GHz band, the Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power from the integrated antenna
or connectorized anteanna shall not exceed 27 dBm (0.5 W).
The operator is responsible for enabling the DFS feature on any Canopy 5.4 GHz radio by setting the Region Code
to “Brazil”, including after the module is reset to factory defaults.
Important Note: This equipment operates as a secondary application, so it has no rights against harmful
interference, even if generated by similar equipment, and cannot cause harmful interference on systems operating as
primary applications.
Luxembourg Notification
5.4GHz products can only be used for mobile services.
Czech Republic Notification
5.4 GHz products can be operated in accordance with the Czech General License No. GL-30/R/2000.
Italy Notification
In Italy, there is a regulation which requires a general authorization of any 5.4 GHz radio link which is used outside
the operator’s own premises. It is the responsibility of the installer or operator to have the link authorized. Details
