e) Additional mitigation techniques can include first, not orienting the antennas in the main beam of the weather
radar, and second, ensuring that the antenna is not positioned in line-of-sight of the FAA TDWR.
f) Verify that the antennas used are approved for use with Cisco WLAN systems. Installers or operators using
nonapproved antennas or making any unauthorized changes may be subject to enforcement action.
WISPA Database
In conjunction with industry, the Wireless Internet Service Providers Association (WISPA) has created a database for
installers and operators for registration of these outdoor systems including Mesh installations. This database,
accessible from the WISPA website http://www.spectrumbridge.com/udrs/home.aspx, should be used by the installer
or operator to determine if they are within 35 km of the TDWR, as well as to register the system if operating within this
range of the TDWR.
This will help the FCC and FAA address interference issues in the future. Cisco strongly urges our customers to
register their outdoor systems in this database:
