station will not be afforded protection from interference caused by these fixed-satellite service devices.

            Note 5 In accordance with the requirements of international footnote reference150 in Part 4 of the Australian Radiofrequency Spectrum Plan 2017, an ITS station will not be afforded protection from interference that may be caused by industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) applications in the ISM band 5725 MHz to 5875 MHz.

            Note 6 The operation of a device with an external antenna, other than an antenna supplied with the device, may result in a breach of the conditions of this instrument.

    Part 3 Additional Conditions

      7 Applicable instruments

       (1) A person must not operate an ITS station under this instrument unless the ITS station complies with any equipment rules that apply to the ITS station.

            Note 1: The upper and lower limits of the permitted operating frequency band mentioned in subparagraph 6(1)(a)(i) apply to an ITS station, irrespective of any frequency limits specified in any applicable instrument for the transmitter.

            Note 2: If a device is labelled with the RCM under the Radiocommunications (Compliance Labelling – Devices) Notice 2014, or under the applicable equipment rules, it is a representation by the supplier that the device, as supplied, complies with any standard or equipment rule that applies to the device at the time the device is supplied.

            Note 3: Equipment rules may be amended over time, or may incorporate amendments to other instruments. A person who wishes to operate a transmitter should check the ACMA's equipment rules and other instruments to determine which version applies to the transmitter.

       (2) A person must not operate a transmitter, or a group of transmitters, under this Class Licence in a place accessible by the public if the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the transmitter or group of transmitters exceeds the general public exposure limits specified in the ARPANSA Standard.

            Note 1 A 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.  Subsection 7(3) has the effect that the exposure limits specified in the ARPANSA Standard must also be met by a transmitter (whether on its own or included in a group of transmitters) to which, after it is supplied, a person attaches an external antenna, located in an area accessible to the public.

            Note 2 A transmitter with a dedicated antenna (as defined in ETSI Standard EN 302 571) is equivalent to a transmitter with an integral antenna for the purposes of the ARPANSA Standard.
