Un-Licenced Operation :
In many countries, it is quite legal to operate systems without the need for operating licences. These
countries include the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Korea, South Africa, Scandinavia, and the
majority of Europe. However, operation in these countries is normally subject to the equipment first being
approved to a defined standard, such as the UK MPT1329 or the European ETS 300 -220-1, both of which
are now encompassed under the R&TTE Directive that came into force on the 8
th
of April 2000.
Other countries also permit un-licenced operation but with restrictions on power and duty cycle that make it
almost impossible for satisfactory modem operation. One example is the United States, where unlicensed
transmissions is permitted under FCC-part 15, but only over very short distances or in short sporadic
bursts.
Licensed Operation :
In many countries or where security of service dictates, licenced spectrum may have to purchased for your
Modem operation.
In the United Kingdom and Europe.
In each case, it must be stressed that the issuing of a licence is at the sole discretion of the licencing
authority and Radio-Tech has no automatic right of appeal against a decision made. Normally,
preference is given to public utilities and business user licence applications. Rarely are private applications
entertained.
IMPORTANT:
Before using your RTcom™ Radio Modem, please ensure that you have purchased the correct
version and selected the correct frequency of operation. We have versions with many international
approvals ranging from the FCC-Part 90 through to Australia Standards and our European versions
carry the CE mark and comply with the “essential requirements” of the R&TTE Directive. If in doubt,
please ask your local Radio-Tech Limited agent.
