FCC Approves Waivers for UWB Door Lock Systems
The FCC Office of Engineering and Technology on Tuesday approved a waiver sought by Lumi United Technology for an ultra-wideband (UWB) door lock system that would operate in the 6-10 GHz frequency range (see 2504110043). “We find nothing in the record to indicate that Lumi’s devices would differ from other UWB devices such that they would pose an increased risk of causing harmful interference to authorized radio services,” OET said in docket 25-102.

OET also approved a similar waiver for Xthings Industry's UWB door lock system in the same spectrum range. “Based on this device’s operational and technical characteristics, it is unlikely that Xthings’ device will be capable of creating a large communication system that could impact authorized devices,” OET said in docket 25-103.
