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 the Second Report and Order
and Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, the Commission extended 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 was
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. The rules adopted in this proceeding added information
collection requirements to this collection and also were intended to
implement Section 629 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47
U.S.C. 549.
