E-Band Fixed Radio Relay Systems Under MTCTE Certification in India: Essential Requirements Guide
E-band Fixed Radio Relay Systems Under MTCTE Certification in India Essential Requirements Guide is the definitive guide for these systems. Under the MTCTE system, notified telecom equipment would require mandatory certification before its sale, import, and deployment in India, and this certification shall be done by the Telecommunication Engineering Centre (TEC) under the Department of Telecommunications (DoT). FRRS in the E-band is one of the telecom products that fall under the above framework and must satisfy the Essential Requirements (ERs).
As per the recent notification issued by TEC, the Essential Requirements (ERs) of E-band Fixed Radio Relay Systems (FRRS) shall be applicable from 1st August 2023 onwards. The notified Essential Requirements (ERs) shall remain in force till 1 January 2050, and the date of mandatory certification shall be 1 April 2050, which can be brought forward by DoT from time to time through subsequent notifications.
UMSPCS offers comprehensive support for MTCTE certification of E-band Fixed Radio Relay Systems, such as product applicability assessment, documentation support, coordination of testing with TEC-designated labs, application filing, and end-to-end compliance management.
What are the Kinds of E-band Fixed Radio Relay Systems?
E-band Fixed Radio Relay Systems are high-capacity wireless communication systems in the 71-76 GHz and 81-86 GHz frequency bands. They are mostly employed for point-to-point microwave links for telecom high-speed data transmission.
These systems are used extensively for 5G backhaul, mobile network infrastructure, enterprise connectivity, broadband networks and carrier-grade communication links, where fibre deployment is not viable or cost-effective.

Why is MTCTE Certification Needed for E-band Fixed Radio Relay Systems?
MTCTE certification is achieved when telecom gear meets the technical, safety, and performance standards that are prescribed by TEC before its release in the Indian market.
Certifications are used to help manufacturers and importers to:
- Legally sell and install telecom facilities in India.
- Show adherence to TEC Essential Requirements.
- Verify the network's functionality and compatibility.
- Reduce customs delays and regulatory risks.
- Create trust within the telecom operators and buyers.
Essential Requirements Covered Under MTCTE
The following items are typically assessed for E-band Fixed Radio Relay Systems (FRRS) in the notified Essential Requirements:
- Radio Frequency performance
- Electromagnetic Compatibility
- Electrical Safety
- Compliance with network and network protocols.
- Ability to operate and function.
- Working ability.
- Information about product interfaces and technical parameters
