CONATEL Resolution NR 003/26 amends the National Frequency Allocation Plan. Resolving clause SIXTH revises note HND40A to include 5925–7125 MHz among WAS/RLAN general-licence ranges, subject to CONATEL provisions. The resolution was adopted on 26 August and published in La Gaceta on 2 September 2026. Resolving clause FIFTEENTH makes it effective on publication. The decision also revises mobile and satellite allocations. General spectrum licensing must be distinguished from product homologation and compliance with applicable technical operating conditions.

Impact

Impact assessment: Medium.

Key reasons: The adopted spectrum extension may affect channel availability and product configuration for Honduran WAS/RLAN deployments. Access depends on technical provisions and applicable equipment compliance, so planners must not infer unrestricted power, modes or deployment conditions from the frequency list alone.

Who is affected?

Wi-Fi and WAS/RLAN manufacturers, Honduran importers and distributors, network integrators, RF planners, enterprise network owners and equipment-homologation teams.

Conclusion:

Map intended operating channels to HND40A and verify technical conditions and product-approval requirements with CONATEL. Compare the Honduran configuration with the certified technical evidence before changing firmware or deployment specifications. Record the original September commencement date in product compliance files.
