Regulatory domains
Walabot models have been manufactured in accordance with the regulatory domains in which they are to be operated. Currently FCC (for operation in the US) models and CE (for operation in EU and other countries using CE certification) models are available. If in doubt, consult your local experts before ordering.
The FCC model is restricted in its operation to the 3.1-10.6 GHz range of frequencies.
The CE model is restricted to 6-8.5 GHz band and to stricter out-of-band emissions.
Operating Walabot in conjunction with other wireless devices
In some cases your projects may contain both Walabot module and an additional wireless device for communications in proximity to each other. It is best to configure the devices such that their frequencies of operation do not overlap. For example, if the FCC model of Walabot is used in conjunction with a WiFi module, it is the safest to configure WiFi to operate in the 2.4 GHz band, rather than in the 5 GHz band. If you configure Walabot to use 3.3-4.8 GHz subband or the 6.3-8.3 GHz subband (as in CE models), both 2.4 and 5 GHz bands of WiFi are safe to use. Bluetooth, Zigbee and cellular bands are all below 3 GHz and should pose no mutual interference challenges. We recommend trying to locate the modules far away from each other.
