ISL36356A-APDK
IEEE802.11 International Agreement and
Frequency Assignments
The IEEE802 LAN committee has forged an international
agreement providing for wireless data communication
standards for the frequency range of 2.4GHz to 2.4835GHz,
as allocated by the FCC in the USA, and in the 2.400GHz to
2.497GHz frequency range, as specified by the regulatory
authority in Japan. These standards are designed to focus
the industry to develop highly integrated, low cost,
interoperable WLAN equipment, of which the ISL36356A-
APDK is a prime example.
In the U.S., there are 11 channels specified by the FCC in
the 2.412GHz to 2.462GHz range. In Japan, channel 14 at
2.484GHz is authorized under ARIB STD-33 and channels
1–13 are authorized under ARIB STD-T66. The ETSl
(European) regulatory body conforms to the USA (FCC)
channel assignments with the exception that channels 12
and 13 are also allowed. Some countries in Europe, notably
France have unique channel restrictions.
Although information contained in Table 3 is deemed to be
accurate, local regulatory authorities should be consulted
before using such equipment.
The available channels of operation in the 2.4GHz to
2.4835GHz and 2.471GHz to 2.497GHz ranges are as follows:

NOTE: channel 14 operation in Japan requires Japan filter to be
enabled in order to comply with ARIB STD-33.
The ISL36356A-APDK is shipped with FCC-compliant
firmware. In order to ensure regulatory-compliant channel
usage in a particular country, special geographic-specific
firmware is available for customer production assemblies
which restricts channel usage. Examples include ETSI-
compliant firmware, etc. For Japan, a Japan filter is
implemented to comply with ARIB STD-33. Since the end
user does not have the ability to alter this firmware,
regulatory compliance is ensured.
