In order to obtain market approval for a device with radio technologies in the USA, each manufacturer must obtain FCC certification for the respective device.
Approval in the USA is granted by a so-called Telecommunication Body (TCB), whereby the approval is considered permanent by the FCC and therefore does not expire. This means that a completely unchanged product does not have to be recertified.
For further information on this special certification please visit our dedicated info page FCC certification.
