All that matters is under what set of Part 15 rules a manufacturer certified under.

You can’t get the higher power U-NII 1 without certifying under the new NPRM issued last May 2014 which have the more restrictive U-NII 3 OOBE limits, otherwise you’re restricted to prior lower U-NII 1 PTMP power levels.

In the new NPRM which opened up the higher power 53 dBm EIRP limits for U-NII 1, there are specific OOBE limits to that band to protect both sides of the U-NII 1 band including Globalstar (5.096-5.25 GHz) , so it’s pretty impossible to get certified at 53 dBm EIRP and there’s a 30-degree elevation limit on PTP operation to protect their satellite transmissions in the sky as they overlap with U-NII 1 band.

As of beginning of June, everyone will have to certify under that new rule and pass the new DFS requirements to operate in U-NII 2.

By example, Mimosa passed the new regulations on our Backhaul products including the latest stringent DFS tests, therefore got access to higher power in U-NII 1, but were forced to back off power in our certification a bit in U-NII 1 and U-NII 3 (different levels for each band) from max theoretical due to OOBE impacts.

The U-NII 1 is a topic we’re working to address with the FCC via WISPA/Cambium/Jab/Mimosa et al in unison with the U-NII 3 OOBE changes we’re working together to fix. Very close to done with a new unified proposal that we can finally take back to the FCC.

The theoretical max is 53dBm EIRP, but nothing is actually certified for that high of power because of OOBE, so how high of power you can actually use is very dependent on the specific radio you're using.

It is available on PTP650... I think it requires a free key to unlock.

    Closer to 5.8 than 5.1, but there were a bunch of other changes
    relating to OOBE.

    I must've been under a rock when this was discussed because I knew
    absolutely nothing about it.

    So 5.1GHz is legal for outdoor use in the US? If so, what are the
    power
    requirements (ie: is it more aligned with 5.4GHz or 5.7GHz?)
    Also, is it
    available for use on deployed PTP650 products?

    Thanks!
