THE Communications Regulatory Authority of Namibia (Cran) has seized 89 non-type approved telecommunications equipment found at the business premises.

 

In a statement this week, corporate communication practitioner Hilya Mhani said Cran conducted investigations on various telecommunications matters to ensure compliance and to determine any network interference.
“The findings highlighted network interference due to the use of non-type approved telecommunications equipment. Preliminary investigations found that the sale of non-type approved telecommunications equipment such as network boosters and decoders are on the increase in the Namibian market,” she said.
Mhani said the operation was done in Windhoek and all the confiscated equipment will be stored at Cran premises until the owners produce type-approval certificates for the devices.
Cran inspectors responsible for equipment certification led the search and seizure operations, accompanied by the Namibian Police to maintain law and order and to ensure the safety of all people and business property during the operation. “Cran informs all importers, vendors, patent owners and equipment manufacturers of telecommunication equipment that it is their responsibility to obtain a type-approval certificate before their goods enter the borders of the Republic of Namibia,” she said.

 

 

 The International Telecommunications Union (ITU) defines ‘Type Approval’ as the technical evaluation of equipment against prescribed specifications with the objective of determining its conformance to these specifications. Type Approval regulations are applicable to all persons who use, sell, offer for sale or connect telecommunications equipment to an electronic telecommunications network within the Republic of Namibia. 

The Communications Regulatory Authority of Namibia (CRAN) in terms of section 80 of the Communications Act (No. 8 of 2009) OUR COMPANY CAN HELP ALL RETAILERS AND IMPORTERS OF ELECTRONIC AND COMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENTS GET CRAN CERTIFICATION OR EXEMPTION CERTIFICATES.
