On 19 March 2025, the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) launched a public consultation to reformulate the Low Interference Potential Equipment (LIPD) category licence, which will expire on 1 October 2025. Typical LIPD devices include garage door openers, Bluetooth devices, wireless microphones, and wireless LAN devices. The proposed revisions include updating the standard references, adding wireless multi-channel audio systems/5925-6425MHz frequency hopping communication systems, and correcting spurious disturbance limits below 5925MHz.
