The notice establishes a comprehensive licensing framework covering ICT networks, ICT services, radio stations, transmitters, spectrum use, and miscellaneous ICT-related activities. It clarifies which networks and services require individual licences, class licences, or spectrum assignments, and outlines the applicable licence categories and fee structures.
Annex 2 is particularly relevant from a technical and compliance perspective, as it specifies the permitted frequency bands and operational parameters for Short-Range Devices, wireless data transfer technologies (including Wi-Fi and LPWAN), RFID, wireless audio applications, radar, and other RF-based applications. The framework aligns closely with FCC and ETSI standards and focuses on regulating the use and operation of radio equipment, rather than introducing a standalone local equipment homologation regime.
Overall, the notice strengthens regulatory clarity around licensing and spectrum use in the Cayman Islands while maintaining reliance on internationally recognized certification schemes for radio equipment.
