- RSS-192, issue 4, Flexible Use Broadband Equipment Operating in the Band 3450-3650 MHz, dated May 2020, has been replaced by RSS-192, issue 5, Flexible Use Broadband Equipment Operating in the Band 3450-3900 MHz.
- The major changes are as follows:
- To enable flexible application, the upper frequency range was expanded from 3650 to 3900 MHz, and the standard’s title was modified as a result.
- The transmitted output power was modified or the fixed subscriber equipment other than indoor base station and subscriber equipment.
- For equipment operating beyond 3900MHz, additional requirements for out-of-frequency band were added.
- The necessity to classify base station equipment as type 1 or type 2 has been abolished, hence the test report requirements have also been eliminated.
- Updated to match the structure of the latest RSS.
- Editorial edits and clarifications have been made when necessary.
- In the frequency range 3450-3900 MHz, this RSS is applicable to base station, point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, and subscriber equipment.
- This release will be effective as of the day it appears on the website of Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED).
- However, there will be a six-month transition period after the publishing date. Applications for certification under either RSS-192, issue 5 or issue 4, will be accepted during this transitional time.
