Australia - What is shaping the connectivity, spectrum access, and product compliance landscape?
In this Horizon Scanning feature, we explore the rationale behind Australia’s current RF policy landscape and examine the future trajectory.
Our analysis looks at the country’s broader national policy objectives alongside ACMA’s short‑ and long‑term priorities -spotlighting key technologies shaping the regulatory agenda, including 5G, 6G, Wi‑Fi 6E/7, and Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Direct-to-Device (D2D) services.
Review our report where we break down:
Regulatory trajectory and reform drivers - expected policy direction, the forces shaping change, and how these may influence market access, spectrum use, and equipment compliance.
Support for emerging technologies - consultations and policy adjustments designed to enable next‑generation connectivity and align with government objectives and goals.
Policy adjacencies affecting RF & electrical products - cross‑cutting themes that may impact product design, approvals, and long‑term compliance strategies.
2026 and beyond - what organisations can expect in regulatory shifts and the next wave of RF technology adoption.
