The Wireless Telecommunications Bureau is seeking comment on a request by ClearRF to make an “equivalent protection” showing pursuant to Section 20.21(e)(10) of the Commission’s rules. In the Signal Booster Report and Order, the Commission stated that any Consumer Signal Booster manufacturer that could not meet the specified technical parameters could still satisfy the Network Protection Standard in Section 20.21(e) if the manufacturer could demonstrate that the booster provided equivalent protections. ClearRF states that its wideband, direct connect consumer signal booster, ClearRF Model Number WRE2710, does not meet Sections 20.21(e)(8)(i)(B) and 20.21(e)(8)(i)(C)(2)(iii) of the Commission’s rules, but nonetheless provides equivalent protections. Comments are due March 20, 2014, and reply comments are due March 27, 2014.
