Publication Date:

In comments filed in response to the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) Sixth Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (FNPRM) on the future allocation and use of the 4.9 GHz band, the Enterprise Wireless Alliance (EWA) argued that allowing private enterprise users primary access to a significant portion of the allocation will benefit both those users and public safety entities. EWA urged the FCC to broaden the eligibility criteria for this spectrum, but not open it for commercial use, and to adopt rules consistent with the efficient management of this allocation.
