- The following notification were announced by NBTC on 28th April 2023.
- Criteria of authorization to use frequency between 5.925-6.425GHz
- Technical standard NBTC TS 1039-2566 for Telecommunication Equipment using frequency of 5.925-6.425GHz.
- The RF test report (FCC Part 15.407) will be required for WiFi 6, whereas ETSI EN will not be applicable.
- Some of the limits are:
- Maximum EIRP output power for Indoor – 250mW and 24dBm.
- Maximum EIRP output power for Indoor and Outdoor – 25mW and 14 dBm.
- The battery-power source will not be provided with output power over 25 mW but not greater than 250mW.
- Channel bandwidth
- EMR or SAR report – device used in for indoor and outdoor having max. power of 25mW will be excluded from EMF or SAR test report.
- Electrical safety standards are –
- IEC 60950-1
- IEC 62368-1
- TIS 62368-1
- The device will require a new type of approval certificate and a new model number if the manufacturer wishes to use 6GHz WiFi on a device that previously had 4G and 5G certified under class A and class B.
