ETSI ETSI EN 305 550-1 V1.2.1 (2014-10) 7 1 Scope The present document applies to the following Short Range Device major equipment types: • Generic Short Range Devices, including alarms, telecommand, telemetry, data transmission in general, etc. These radio equipment types are capable of operating in frequency bands within the 40 GHz to 246 GHz range as specified in table 1: • either with a Radio Frequency (RF) output connection and dedicated antenna or with an integral antenna; • for all types of modulation. Table 1 shows a list of the frequency bands as designated in the CEPT/ERC Recommendation 70-03 [i.1] as known at the date of publication of the present document. NOTE 1: Table 1 represents the most widely implemented position within the CEPT countries [i.1], but it should not be assumed that all designated bands are available in all countries. It is also foreseen that these frequencies may be implemented in European Commission Decision 2006/771/EC [i.2], European Commission Decision 2013/752/EU [i.12] and CEPT/ERC Recommendation 74-01 [i.4] in the future. Table 1: Short Range Devices within the 40 GHz to 246 GHz frequency range Frequency Bands (Transmit and Receive) Applications Notes 57 GHz to 64 GHz Non-specific SRD
61,0 GHz to 61,5 GHz Non-specific SRD
122 GHz to 123 GHz Non-specific SRD
244 GHz to 246 GHz Non-specific SRD
NOTE 2: In addition, it should be noted that other frequency bands may be available for short range devices in a country within the frequency range 40 GHz to 246 GHz covered by the present document. See the CEPT/ERC Recommendation 70-03 [i.1] or as implemented through National Radio Interfaces (NRI) and additional NRI as relevant. NOTE 3: On non-harmonized parameters, national administrations may impose certain conditions such as the type of modulation, frequency, channel/frequency separations, maximum transmitter radiated power, duty cycle, and the inclusion of an automatic transmitter shut-off facility, as a condition for the issue of an individual or general licence, or as a condition for the issuing of Individual Rights for use of spectrum or General Authorization, or as a condition for use "under licence exemption" as it is in most cases for Short Range Devices. The present document covers fixed stations, mobile stations and portable stations. 2 References References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number) or non-specific. For specific references, only the cited version applies. For non-specific references, the latest version of the reference document (including any amendments) applies. Referenced documents which are not found to be publicly available in the expected location might be found at http://docbox.etsi.org/Reference.

1 Scope
The present document applies to the following Short Range Device major equipment types:
• Generic Short Range Devices, including alarms, telecommand, telemetry, data transmission in general, etc.
These radio equipment types are capable of operating in frequency bands within the 40 GHz to 246 GHz range as
specified in table 1:
• either with a Radio Frequency (RF) output connection and dedicated antenna or with an integral antenna;
• for all types of modulation.
Table 1 shows a list of the frequency bands as designated in the CEPT/ERC Recommendation 70-03 [i.1] as known at
the date of publication of the present document.
NOTE 1: Table 1 represents the most widely implemented position within the CEPT countries [i.1], but it should
not be assumed that all designated bands are available in all countries. It is also foreseen that these
frequencies may be implemented in European Commission Decision 2006/771/EC [i.2], European
Commission Decision 2013/752/EU [i.12] and CEPT/ERC Recommendation 74-01 [i.4] in the future.
Table 1: Short Range Devices within the 40 GHz to 246 GHz frequency range
Frequency Bands Applications Notes
(Transmit and Receive)
57 GHz to 64 GHz Non-specific SRD
61,0 GHz to 61,5 GHz Non-specific SRD
122 GHz to 123 GHz Non-specific SRD
244 GHz to 246 GHz Non-specific SRD

NOTE 2: In addition, it should be noted that other frequency bands may be available for short range devices in a
country within the frequency range 40 GHz to 246 GHz covered by the present document. See the
CEPT/ERC Recommendation 70-03 [i.1] or as implemented through National Radio Interfaces (NRI) and
additional NRI as relevant.
NOTE 3: On non-harmonized parameters, national administrations may impose certain conditions such as the type
of modulation, frequency, channel/frequency separations, maximum transmitter radiated power, duty
cycle, and the inclusion of an automatic transmitter shut-off facility, as a condition for the issue of an
individual or general licence, or as a condition for the issuing of Individual Rights for use of spectrum or
General Authorization, or as a condition for use "under licence exemption" as it is in most cases for Short
Range Devices.
The present document covers fixed stations, mobile stations and portable stations.

1 Scope
The present document applies to the following Short Range Device major equipment types:
• Generic Short Range Devices, including alarms, telecommand, telemetry, data transmission in general, etc.
These radio equipment types are capable of operating in frequency bands within the 40 GHz to 246 GHz range as
specified in table 1:
• either with a Radio Frequency (RF) output connection and dedicated antenna or with an integral antenna;
• for all types of modulation.
Table 1 shows a list of the frequency bands as designated in the CEPT/ERC Recommendation 70-03 [i.1] as known at
the date of publication of the present document.
NOTE 1: Table 1 represents the most widely implemented position within the CEPT countries [i.1], but it should
not be assumed that all designated bands are available in all countries. It is also foreseen that these
frequencies may be implemented in [i.2], [i.12] and [i.4] in the future.
Table 1: Short Range Devices within the 40 GHz to 246 GHz frequency range
Frequency Bands Applications Notes
(Transmit and Receive)
57 GHz to 64 GHz Non-specific SRD
61,0 GHz to 61,5 GHz Non-specific SRD
122 GHz to 123 GHz Non-specific SRD
244 GHz to 246 GHz Non-specific SRD

NOTE 2: In addition, it should be noted that other frequency bands may be available for short range devices in a
country within the frequency range 40 GHz to 246 GHz covered by the present document. See the
CEPT/ERC Recommendation 70-03 [i.1] or as implemented through National Radio Interfaces (NRI) and
additional NRI as relevant.
NOTE 3: On non-harmonized parameters, national administrations may impose certain conditions such as the type
of modulation, frequency, channel/frequency separations, maximum transmitter radiated power, duty
cycle, and the inclusion of an automatic transmitter shut-off facility, as a condition for the issue of an
individual or general licence, or as a condition for the issuing of Individual Rights for use of spectrum or
General Authorization, or as a condition for use "under licence exemption" as it is in most cases for Short
Range Devices.
The present document covers fixed stations, mobile stations and portable stations.
