Monopolies (esp. telecommunications)

This section provides insights into regulations in telecommunications, focusing particularly on monopolies and the use of non-compliant electronic devices such as jammers. Adhering to these guidelines is crucial for the legal operation of telecommunications equipment.

Telecommunications equipment, electrical appliances non-compliant

Telecommunications installations and electrical appliances that do not comply with Swiss regulations must not be sold or used. A list of these non-compliant devices is available to prevent their sale and use. Ensure you are informed about the regulations before purchasing devices from abroad.

Jammers

Jammers can fully block mobile communication, impairing even emergency services. Misleading advertising often suggests legal use, but even owning these devices is illegal. Technological advancements have made these devices smaller and affordable, significantly increasing their potential to disrupt mobile telephony bands and other communication systems.
