What the notification says

This Technical Code was developed for the purpose of certifying communications equipment under the Communications and Multimedia (Technical Standards) Regulations 2000 [P.U.(A) 124/2000]. This Technical Code specifies the technical requirements for SRDs operating in the frequency bands defined in the relevant Standard Radio System Plans and the latest Class Assignments issued by the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC). The SRDs may be fixed, mobile or portable stations fitted with an antenna connector or an integral antenna. This revision updates the frequency bands, maximum RF output power, and transmitter and receiver spurious emission limits for new generation SRDs, taking into account industry requirements and the latest MCMC Class Assignments. It also removes marking, interoperability, Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and electrical safety requirements from this Technical Code, as those baseline requirements are now addressed separately in MCMC MTSFB TC T022, Communications Equipment - Baseline Requirements.
