Basic Rebanding Message

Interference has been a serious problem for 800 MHz Public Safety and Critical Infrastructure communications

FCC spent 2 1/2 years studying problem with 10’s of thousands of pages of comments

Report and Order was designed to reduce PS interference

If you are impacted, it is mandatory--you can’t get out of it

All costs are covered

Motorola is here to help you through the process and provide the absolute minimum disruption to your operation

Impacts to Subscribers and Infrastructure

4

Motorola’s System Categories System impact falls into 4 categories based upon channels used

A – Channels in first 120 only (806.0125/851.0125 – 808.9875/853.9875)

No NPSPAC 821-824 Channels at all

B – Channels in NPSPAC only (821.0125/866.0125 – 823.9875/868.9875)

No Channels in 806-809 General Category

C – Channels in NPSPAC and first 120 / Expansion

D – Channels in Interleaved spectrum (809.0125/854.0125 – 815.9875/860.9875)

No NPSPAC 821-824 Channels at allNo 806-809 General Category Channels

Note: Expansion Band PS will move, unless they opt to stay

5

Retune/Reprogram/Update/Replace Definitions

Retune: Updating the channel frequencies via the Customer Programming Software/Radio Service Software programming software

Reprogram: Updating operating software via software FLASH with new frequencies & band plan

Update: One or more boards must be replaced in the equipment to enable retuning or reprogramming

Replace: Cannot be updated to support new frequencies or band plans

6

Subscriber Impact -- Category AChannels in first 120 only

System with channels from 851.0125 / 806.0125 to 853.9875 / 808.9875

Relocates to channels from 854.0125 / 809.0125 to 861.9875 / 816.9875

Does not have any NPSPAC channels including Mutual Aid programmed in radio

Equipment impact Radio units can be retuned to new

frequencies Radios in red are class B IM

protection. Motorola recommends replacing those units for better interference protection after rebanding*

* Costs to replace radios that can be retuned or reprogrammed will be the responsibility of the licensee

821/866-824/869 MHz must be reflashed with new radio software to operate in 806/851-809/854 MHz

All radios must be retuned. The radios must be reprogrammed with a new RSS/CPS programming software to support new channels

Subscriber Impact -- Category CBoth NPSPAC & first 120 Channels

System with NPSPAC channels from 866.0125 / 821.0125 to 868.9875 / 823.9875 and channels from 851.0125 / 806.0125 to 853.9875 / 808.9875

May be a multi-step process

First Relocation from lower 120 (851.0125 / 806.0125 to 853.9875 / 808.9875) is retune only

Second Relocation to rechanneled 851.0125/806.0125 – 853.9875/806.9875 is Reprogram and/or Replace

All radios with NPSPAC channels must be re-flashed with new radio software to operate in new NPSPAC channels (806/851 - 809/854 MHz)

All radios must be retuned. Radios must be reprogrammed with a new RSS/CPS programming software to support new channels

Subscriber Impact -- Category DChannels in Interleaved spectrum

System with channels from 854.0125 / 809.0125 – 860.9875 / 815.9875 only

At this time, no impact;

However,Public Safety licensees in new Expansion band

channels 860.0125 / 815.0125 to 860.9875 / 815.9875 can relocate if desired to frequencies below 809-815 / 854-860 MHz.

Project only requires retuning for those who move out of Expansion Band

Infrastructure Summary

Impact on Non-NPSPAC Systems is Retune

Impact on NPSPAC Systems requires more effort: Reprogram or UpdateSMARTNET I & II need HW ReplacementsOther Systems need new SW

New band plan software incorporates both before and after plansSimplifies rebanding process significantly
