(UNII-1), with 4 Channels upto 40mW and 5.25 to 5.35 (UNII-2), with 4
channels upto 200mW.

> 2) What is the allowed 5Ghz frequency range for outdoors?

5.47 to 5.8 (UNII-3), 11 channels upto 1W. Cisco will have a outdoor
bridge available Q1 2003.

There is also UNI-4 from memory, I think it's 200 mW in the range of
about 5.8 to 6 Ghz (roughly).

> 3) What is around the 802.11a frequency range?

As above for question 1.

> 4) What is the ACA regulation showing this? (Act & section number or
> URL would help)

Current devices fall under the Low Interference Potential Devices Class
Licence.

Feel free to credit me as a representative of the Australian Wireless
Association.

I doubt it, there are solid reasons why it is not usable outdoors, based
around the fact that the lower 5Ghz range is used for C-Band Satellite
uplink frequencies.
