Ranger U-NII-5 (6GHz) support by region
Ranger Micro and Mk II radios are calibrated and tested to support operation in the U-NII-5
(5.925–6.425GHz) frequencies. Although the product and its internal radios support these additional
frequencies vs. previous Ranger products, regulatory restrictions mean that U-NII-5 operation is allowed
only in the regions where it has been cleared for use. As different regions approve U-NII-5 for unlicensed
operation, Teradek will release firmware updates to enable the additional frequencies. Note that we
sometimes refer to U-NII-5 frequencies as “6GHz” to make it simpler to understand.
Ranger Mk I (5GHz only) vs. Ranger Mk II and Micro operation (5GHz and 6GHz).
Background
Ranger operates on licensed and unlicensed frequencies within certain U-NII (Unlicensed National
Information Infrastructure) frequency bands. Ranger Mk I works in U-NII-1, U-NII-2A, U-NII-2B, U-NII-2C,
U-NII-3, and U-NII-4 bands. A majority of these frequencies are more commonly used in commercial wi-fi
equipment. Ranger Micro and Mk II supports all of these, but adds support for U-NII-5 as a separate
frequency range.
