Canada
Industry Canada (IC), formerly the Department of Communications,
requires certification for all radio transceivers as either type-approved
or technically accepted.
If you do not make any physical or electrical changes to the Boomer II
OEM modem and you add an antenna externally to your host/terminal,
you are not required to make a formal application to Industry Canada,
because Boomer II OEM modems continue to be covered under the
original Radio Equipment Certificate of Type Approval.
Most of the tests required for FCC applications can be used for
Industry Canada applications. IC requires additional tests, which
distinguishes their certification process as unique.
The Radio Standards Procedure RSP-100 describes the procedure for
obtaining certification of radio equipment and labelling requirements.
These documents are available upon request from Industry Canada in
Ottawa or from their website at
http://spectrum.ic.gc.ca/~cert/certprocedures_radio_e.html .
Labelling
Industry Canada requires OEM products to be labelled as follows:
IC: XXXX-BM2800D
Or,
IC: XXXX-BM2800D
Where XXXX represents the number supplied to the OEM by Industry
Canada.
Air Interface Protocols
Data exchange protocols transport data between the host/terminal and
the network. Within the radio portion of the network, between the
device and the base station, specialized RF protocols (RD-LAP or
MDC4800) carry the data. These radio protocols are typically
transparent to wireless applications.
The modem communicates over radio frequency channels using the
RD-LAP 9.6, RD-LAP 19.2, or MDC 4800 protocols and an internal
800, or 900MHz radio to operate over 12.5 or 25kHz RF channels. The
network-specific configuration is constant for all like devices on the
network and includes the channel list and the system ID.
The modem has dual protocol capability on DataTAC 4000 systems in
the United States and Canada. The modem’s RF protocol is based on
the attributes specified by the configured channel list, and dynamic
channel information from the network.
On DataTAC 5000 systems, only the RD-LAP protocol is supported.
The modem performs auto-roaming (that is, auto-scanning, channel
selection, and registration on a new channel). Battery-save operation
(Power Save protocol) is supported within most DataTAC networks.
