1.5 IEEE 802.11 frequency assignments
This Indigo device is shipped with FCC-compliant firmware. In order to ensure regulatory-compliant channel
usage in a particular country, special geographic-specific firmware is available for customer production assemblies
which restricts channel usage. Examples include ETSI-compliant firmware, Japan -compliant firmware etc. Since
the end user does not have the ability to alter this firmware, regulatory compliance is ensured.
