Statement on power increase for 5.8 GHz FWA | Ofcom

Ofcom has increased the power limits from 2W EIRP to 4W EIRP for Band C in the 5GHz band (5725 - 5850 MHz) in all geographic areas. This doubling of power allowance should significantly increase the distance between radios i.e. users and basestations, which is potentially very good for rural areas.

Ofcom also looked at also increasing power in the 2.4GHz band, but this was rejected.

Ofcom have made changes to IR2007 which covers the 5GHz band to reflect the changes.
