Description The Ocado BCM is part of the proprietary Rainbow Communications System (RCOM). RCOM is a point to multipoint short range, radio communications system which operates in the frequency band 5470MHz to 5725MHz. The overall system comprises both wired and wireless communications. The wireless part comprised two units, the Base Station (BS) and the Bot Control Module (BCM) which form the two radio parts of the point to multipoint system. One BS can be connected to many BCMs at any one time. The wired parts comprise of 1) An Ethernet LAN that connects the controlling system to the Base Station; when multiple Base Stations are used this is done via a Base Station Controller (BSC) and 2) the connection from the BCM to a PC on the device being controlled, again over Ethernet. Type of request: Original certification Applicable rule parts: 15.407 Yours sincerely Mark Bailey Wireless Test & Certification Engineer
