New
–B Domain for Cisco Aironet Access Points for
U.S. (FCC)
PB737028
To comply with FCC rules order 14-30, Cisco will introduce new
–B domain access point products for use in the
United States (U.S.). The
–B domain access points will be used only in the U.S. Previously, the –A domain access
points were used for the U.S. and other countries (such as Canada). While the
–A domain access points will
continue to be sold to other countries currently using the
–A domain, they cannot be shipped to the U.S. effective
June 2, 2016, per the FCC order. Therefore, starting May 1, 2016, Cisco will restrict the ordering of
–A and –UX
domain access points for sale into the U.S. to ensure that all sales orders received by this date are shipped prior to
the June 2, 2016, FCC deadline. Customers are encouraged to migrate to ordering
–B domain access points
starting May 1, 2016.
Please note that there is no requirement to stop using
–A domain access points in the U.S. after the FCC deadline.
They can continue to operate and can even coexist with the new
–B domain access points in the same network.
New Features
The
–B domain access points comply with the FCC order 14-30 rules. A summary of the changes introduced in the
–B domain access points is provided below.
●
U-NII 1 band (5150 to 5250 MHz) is now allowed for outdoor use.
●
In the U-NII 1 band (5150 to 5250 MHz), the allowed TX power level is increased to 1W (for indoor, outdoor,
point to point), with extreme restrictions on effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) above a 30-degree
horizon when used outdoors.
●
The Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR) bands (channels 120, 124, and 128) are reopened with new
test requirements for dynamic frequency selection (DFS) protection.
●
The access points meet new power spectral density and above- and below-band edge emissions
requirements for the U-NII3 (5.725 to 5.85 GHz) band.
Upgrade Paths
New software will be made available to support the
–B domain access points. Cisco will provide –B domain support
on numerous software releases to facilitate customer deployments of
–B domain access points. To download
Ordering Information
The SKUs for ordering
–B domain access points will be similar to those for the –A domain access points, except
that they will now reflect
–B instead of –A. Table 1 shows the SKUs previously used to order –A domain access
points for the U.S. and the new corresponding
–B domain SKUs that should now be used for U.S. deployments
starting on May 1, 2016.
