North AmericaForm 601 FCC
FCC Form 601 - FCC Application for Wireless Telecommunications Bureau Radio Service Authorization is the current vehicle for applying, modifying, renewing or amending Fixed Microwave licenses—for both point-to-point and point-to-multipoint systems.
The relevant portion of Form 601 to Aviat Networks customers is Schedule I - Technical Data Schedule for the Fixed Microwave and Microwave Broadcast Auxiliary Services (Parts 101 and 74).
For the most part, Schedule I requires input of the same technical parameters as its predecessors. The technical data is entered on Supplements 1 – 3 on Schedule I.
FCC ET docket 97-94
Effective April 1998 with FCC ET Docket 97-94, certain classifications of non-broadcast transmitters such as Part 101 point-to-point microwave were no longer registered with the FCC. Part 101 microwave products fall under the "Verification" procedure. Consequently, FCC IDs do not apply to Part 101 products.
Schedule 1
The technical data input form supplements begin on page 19, with pages 19–22 containing customer-supplied non-technical data:
- Administrative information
- Frequency coordinator information
- Broadcast auxiliary information (Part 74 only)
- Control point
- Location data—usually provided by frequency coordinator
- Path data
- Transmit location
- Transmit antenna
- Final receiver

The technical data relevant to Aviat Networks products is entered on the last page (Page 23 of the PDF form) of Schedule I in Supplement 4.
This data is provided in the form titled Frequency Data and is made up of the following product-specific technical parameters:
- Transmit location name
- Path number
- Action—add, modify or delete
Product-specific items:
- Lower or center frequency (MHz)
- Upper frequency (Part 74 only)
- Frequency tolerance (percentage)
- EIRP (dBm)
- Emission designator
- Baseband digital rate (kbps)
- Digital modulation type
- Transmitter manufacturer (Aviat Networks)
- Transmitter model
- Automatic transmitter power control (Yes/No)
The EIRP must be provided from the link calculations provided by the frequency coordinator or system design engineer.
