ICASA has placed on hold all applications for the certification of Inductive Loop systems including RFID equipment in the band 119-135KHz.
ICASA is in discussions reviewing their band requirements specifically as the standard ISO/IEC 18047-2 is mentioned in the requirements and is considered not applicable.
ICASA has met as a type approval unit trying to interrogate the standard in question and its relevance for the conformity assessment process, ICASA has discovered/there is general feeling that the standard has been misplaced.
The type approval department has made submissions to Frequency Spectrum Resource Committee to relook at the rationale behind the standard in question. An amendment to the band requirements is imminent, once published ICASA will continue to certify Inductive Loop systems including RFID equipment in the band 119-135KHz.
