France: Restricted wireless frequency bands
Some areas of France have a restricted frequency band. The worst case
maximum authorized power indoors is:
•
10 mW for the entire 2.4 GHz band (2400 MHz - 2483.5 MHz)
•
100 mW for frequencies between 2446.5 MHz and 2483.5 MHz
Note: Channels 10 through 13 inclusive operate in the band
2446.6 MHz to 2483.5 MHz.
There are few possibilities for outdoor use: On private property or on the
private property of public persons, use is subject to a preliminary authorization
procedure by the Ministry of Defense, with maximum authorized power of 100
mW in the 2446.5 - 2483.5 MHz band. Use outdoors on public property is not
permitted.
In the departments listed below, for the entire 2.4 GHz band:
•
Maximum authorized power indoors is 100 mW
•
Maximum authorized power outdoors is 10 mW
Departments in which the use of the 2400 - 2483.5 MHz band is permitted with
an EIRP of less than 100 mW indoors and less than 10 mW outdoors:
This requirement is likely to change over time, allowing you to use your wireless
LAN card in more areas within France.
