Read the first 7 Regulatory Frameworks & Compliance flashcards as text

  1. What is the non-interference, non-protection basis that all Part 15 devices must operate under?

    Answer: Unlicensed devices must not cause harmful interference and must accept interference from other sources

    The fundamental Part 15 condition is that devices accept all interference received and may not cause harmful interference to licensed operations.

  2. Which 5 GHz UNII sub-band is shared with Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR) and requires the strictest DFS parameters?

    Answer: UNII-2C (5.47–5.725 GHz)

    UNII-2C overlaps with TDWR frequencies, requiring Wi-Fi devices to implement DFS with a 30-minute non-occupancy period after radar detection.

  3. What does the FCC Telecommunications Certification Body (TCB) program allow?

    Answer: Private accredited labs to grant FCC equipment certifications on behalf of the FCC

    TCBs are accredited third-party organizations that can issue FCC certifications (ID grants), reducing the FCC's own workload while maintaining technical standards.

  4. A company is planning outdoor 5 GHz Wi-Fi across a campus. Which band should they use to avoid mandatory DFS radar scanning overhead?

    Answer: UNII-3 (5.725–5.850 GHz)

    UNII-3 does not require DFS, making it the preferred outdoor 5 GHz band where a 60-second CAC delay is undesirable.

  5. What maximum EIRP does FCC Part 15.247 permit for point-to-point 2.4 GHz links using a directional antenna?

    Answer: 4 W (36 dBm)

    For point-to-point 2.4 GHz links, FCC Part 15.247 allows up to 4 W (36 dBm) EIRP when a directional antenna reduces co-channel interference.

  6. Which regulatory compliance marking is required for wireless devices sold in Japan?

    Answer: TELEC (Telecom Engineering Center) mark

    Japan requires the TELEC certification mark, issued after testing by the Telecom Engineering Center, for radio equipment sold in Japan.

  7. Under WPA3-Enterprise, what is the minimum PMF (Protected Management Frame) requirement?

    Answer: PMF is mandatory (required)

    WPA3-Enterprise mandates 802.11w (PMF) to protect management frames from eavesdropping and spoofing attacks.
