Overview

This document lists the regulatory domain rule changes for Cisco Wave 2 and 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) access points in Cisco Wireless Release 8.10.130.0 and Cisco IOS XE Amsterdam Release 17.3.1.

 

The following sections describe the regulatory domain changes made for specific countries.

Russia (-R)

For Outdoor APs

The UNII-1 band is added with channels 36, 40, 44, and 48. These channels have the same limitations as for the UNII-2 and UNII-3 bands. The current -R domain at 5 GHz starts from the UNII-2 band.

For Indoor APs

■      Channel 165 is added at 5 GHz with the same limitations as for the UNII-3 band.

■      Output power is updated in 5 GHz. Up to 23 dBm of Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) and 20 dBm of conducted total power that are currently allowed at, are available for -R 5-GHz channels for indoor Wi-Fi short-range devices (SRDs). Transmit Power Control (TPC) enablement and up to 10 mW per MHz for spectral power density EIRP.

Note: This is applicable for all Cisco AP models. This update has already been applied to Cisco Aironet 1560 Series APs.

■      5-GHz carrier set for (-R) Russian Federation (RU):

—     Outdoor supported channels: 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 132, 136, 140, 144, 149, 153, 157, 161, 165, 169, and 173

—     Indoor supported channels: 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 132, 136, 140, 144, 149, 153, 157, 161, and 165

India (-D)

For Outdoor APs

Frequency bands 5150 to 5350 MHz, 5470 to 5725 MHz and 5725 to 5875 MHz are allowed in outdoor APs. Previously, only 5825 to 5875 MHz was allowed in the 5-GHz band.

For Indoor APs

■      Frequency band 5470 to 5725 MHz is allowed in India.

■      There is also a change in power spectral density and output power limits.

■      5-GHz carrier set for (-D):

—     Outdoor supported channels: 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 100, 104, 108, 112, 116, 120, 124, 128, 132, 136, 140, 144, 149, 153, 157, 161, 165, 169, and 173

—     Indoor supported channels: 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 100, 104, 108, 112, 116, 120, 124, 128, 132, 136, 140, 144, 149, 153, 157, 161, 165, 169, and 173

Indonesia (-F)
