a. In the draft Annexure B, the band 57-64 GHz was proposed for the Point-to-Point FS with the prescribed standard EN 302 217.

 

b. Submissions received

Radwin recommends the Authority to replace the point-to-point standard on the 57-64 GHz from EN 302 217 to EN 302 567 as per REC 70-03.

 

c. The Authority’s Response

The Authority notes the recommendation to change the standard for Point-to-Point applications in the band 57-64 GHz, however the Authority maintains that the applicable standard is EN 302 217 as the proposed standard EN 302 567 scope covers Multi-Gigabit Data Rate in the 60 GHz, not the point-to-point services.
