 (g) the transmitter is only used or operated in Australia at the location, and during the period, specified in the notifiable instrument that declares the event to be a significant event.

Note 1: A radiocommunications transmitter may be operated under this instrument in parts of the radiofrequency spectrum used by other radiocommunications devices. A radiocommunications receiver tuned to the transmitter will not be afforded protection from interference caused by other radiocommunications devices. A radiocommunications transmitter operated under this instrument is generally not expected to suffer interference; however, an individual transmitter may experience interference arising from the particular circumstances of the transmitter’s operation.

Note 2: In accordance with the requirements of footnote AUS 32 and footnote 150 to the Table of Frequency Band Allocations in the spectrum plan, a low interference potential device will not be afforded protection from interference that may be caused by industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) applications in the ISM frequency bands 13.553 MHz to 13.567 MHz, 26.957 MHz to 27.283 MHz, 40.66 MHz to 40.70 MHz, 918 MHz to 926 MHz, 2 400 MHz to 2 500 MHz, 5 725 MHz to 5 875 MHz and 24 000 MHz to 24 250 MHz.

Note 3: Some radiocommunications transmitters operated under this instrument must meet additional physical or technical requirements outside the scope of this instrument. The use, marketing and supply of such devices in Australia may be dependent on the approval of the appropriate regulatory body, such as the Therapeutic Goods Administration or State and Territory government authorities.

Note 4: The operation of a radiocommunications transmitter with an external antenna, other than an antenna supplied with the transmitter, may result in a breach of the conditions of this instrument. An external antenna is a removable antenna that is not an integral antenna. An integral antenna is an antenna that is permanently fixed to a transmitter, or which is intended for direct attachment to a fixed connector on the transmitter, without the use of an external cable.

Note 5: A radiocommunications transmitter, or group of transmitters, capable of operating simultaneously on more than one permitted frequency must comply with the standard prescribed by Schedule 4 to the Radiocommunications Equipment (General) Rules 2021, or by a later instrument that replaces those rules and prescribes a standard, for the total power that is emitted. Those rules are available, free of charge, from the Federal Register of Legislation at www.legislation.gov.au.

Note 6: Information about electromagnetic energy regulatory arrangements is available, free of charge, from the ACMA website at www.acma.gov.au.

9  Operation – compliance with ARPANSA Standard

  A person must not operate a radiocommunications transmitter, or a group of radiocommunications transmitters, if the electromagnetic energy emitted by the transmitter, or group of transmitters, exceeds the general public exposure limits specified in the ARPANSA Standard in a place accessible by the public.

Note 1: A radiocommunications transmitter with an integral antenna must not be supplied unless it complies with the standard prescribed by Schedule 4 to the Radiocommunications Equipment (General) Rules 2021, which adopts the exposure limits specified in the ARPANSA Standard. Under section 9 of this instrument, the ARPANSA Standard exposure limits must also be met by a radiocommunications transmitter, whether on its own or included in a group of transmitters, to which, after it is supplied, a person attaches an external antenna (that is, an antenna other than an integral antenna), located in an area accessible to the public. An integral antenna is an antenna that is permanently fixed to a device, or which is intended for direct attachment to a fixed connector on the device, without the use of an external cable.

Note 2: A radiocommunications transmitter with a dedicated antenna (as defined by applicable instruments produced by ETSI) is equivalent to a transmitter with an integral antenna for the purpose of the ARPANSA Standard.

Note 3: The standards AS/NZS IEC 60825.14 Safety of laser products, Part 14: A user’s guide and AS/NZS IEC 60825.1 Safety of laser products, Part 1:Equipment classification and requirements set out the requirements that are necessary to protect persons from radiation from a laser device, the use of which may be authorised by this instrument. These standards may be obtained, for a fee, from a Standard Australia distributor listed on the Standards Australia website at www.standards.org.au. They are also available to be viewed, on prior request, at an ACMA office, subject to licensing conditions.

Note 4: Where a radiocommunications transmitter, or group of transmitters, is capable of operating simultaneously on more than one permitted frequency in places accessible by the public, the general public exposure limits specified in the ARPANSA Standard apply to the total power emitted.
