10214 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No.
44 / Wednesday, March 7, 2007 / Notices
On March 17, 2005 the FCC released
a Second Report and Order, In the
Matter of Implementation of Section 304
of the Telecommunications Act of 1996,
Commercial Availability of Navigation
Devices, CS Docket No. 97–80, FCC 05–
76. In this Second Report and Order, the
Commission extends by twelve months
the existing 2006 deadline in Section
76.1204(a)(1) prohibiting the
deployment of integrated navigation
devices by multichannel video
programming distributors in order to
promote the retail sale of non-integrated
navigation devices. This extension is
intended to afford cable operators
additional time to investigate and
develop a downloadable security
solution that will allow common
reliance by cable operators and
consumer electronics manufacturers on
an identical security function without
the additional costs of physical
separation inherent in the point-of-
deployment module, or CableCARD,
solution.
