Group, Interesting discussion on FCC Verification of OEM ITE equipment. I have another twist that includes radio and the EU.
Company A has a 2.4GHz radio device that they have self declared to the RTTE Directive in accordance with Annex V of the directive. Company B, with no internationally recognized quality system in place and has not been assessed by a Notified Body, wishes to OEM the radio device and to assume the existing approvals. In effect appear to the world as the manufacturer. In the USA that can be done via a Grantee change with the FCC. With that, company B assumes the FCC approval that company A has obtained and now enjoys it's own FCC identity. This allows company B to file permissive change applications with no involvement by Company A. This also used to be the case in the EU before the RTTE Directive. However, is it still possible between company A, that used Annex V to declare compliance, and company B who wishes to assume that approval even if company B does not have the quality system in place that is required by Annex V, which the approval is declared to? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sam Wismer RF Approvals Engineer LXE, Inc.
