The FCC Wireless Bureau said it’s extending the deadline for consumer signal boosters marketed, distributed and sold in the U.S. to meet new commission technical standards to April 30. The FCC had set the deadline at March 1, but has determined an extension was necessary because of “unforeseen delays” in developing equipment testing procedures for the boosters, it said Tuesday. The extension will also give the FCC “additional time to certify Consumer Signal Boosters under our new rules and will provide consumers with additional choices among compliant Consumer Signal Boosters."
