The FCC says the changes will streamline the approval process and expedite the introduction of new devices to the market.</p><p>In a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking issued last month, the FCC proposed a number of changes to its existing equipment authorization program. The key proposed changes include:</p><p><strong>TCB Accreditation</strong> – Telecommunications certification bodies (TCBs) – like <a title="blocked::http://www.metlabs.com/" href="http://www.metlabs.com/" target="_blank">MET Labs</a> – will be accredited in accordance with the requirements of ISO/IEC 17011 and ISO/IEC 17065. These standards replace ISO/IEC Guides 58, 61 and 65.</p><p><strong>Testing Laboratories Accreditation</strong> – Laboratories that test equipment subject to certification or approval under any of its rules must be accredited to ISO/IEC 17025.</p><p><strong>TCB Authority</strong> – The FCC will no longer directly issue any grants of equipment authorization. Instead, TCBs will authorize and deny all products subject to certification.</p><p><strong>ost-Market Surveillance</strong> – For post-market surveillance, the FCC will specify the number and types of samples that a TCB must test.</p><p><strong>Assessing TCB Performance</strong> – NIST will assess TCB performance. The Commission also outlined a process to address TCB non-performance issues.</p><p><strong>Measurement Procedures</strong> – ANSI C63.10-2009 will be the procedure used to determine the compliance of intentional radiators, and ANSI C63.4-2009 will be the procedure for assessing unintentional radiators.</p><p>We understand these proposed changes are likely to go through without significant modification, but first there is a comment period to elicit feedback. Comments on the Commission’s proposed rule changes are due by late March <a title="blocked::http://apps.fcc.gov/ecfs//" href="http://apps.fcc.gov/ecfs//" target="_blank">here</a>.</p></div> |
