Considerations When Selling Your Transmitter in the United States

When considering the sale of wireless technologies and electronic products that can interfere with other products in the US and other markets, there are a few key factors that need to be adhered to by the manufacturer according to the FCC.

They include:

  1. Does the manufacturer have its own wireless module, or is it using a wireless module from another manufacturer?
  2. What are the FCC requirements of the transmitter or transmitter module(s) used?
  3. Is the device used on or near the head or body?
  4. Is the product part of a product family?
  5. Does the owner of the product want an FCC Certification in its own legal name versus the name of the manufacturer of the wireless module?
    1. Will the wireless module manufacturer allow its device to receive an FCC Grant in another company’s name?
    2. Will the wireless module manufacturer allow its device to be set in the appropriate test mode for FCC Testing?
