I have a question for this august body concerning RF device regulations in Brazil. All my queries to the Brazilian authorities have gone unanswered for weeks now and I am harassed daily by our marketing group who are anxious to sell in Brazil.
The company has a new product that contains a 1.8Ghz GSM data link - used with equipment we produce. The unit operates as a "Mobile Cellular Device" as far as Cell Phone Providers are concerned. The user simply establishes a GSM cell phone account with a local cellular provider. The RF unit is an OEM module that has both US/Canada and EU-RTTE RF device certifications. The product meets Class B emissions. The unit is battery powered. Max power output is <1watt. QUESTIONS: 1. Are the current certifications adequate, or are additional certifications specific to Brazil required for the RF module. ??? 2. Are operating licenses required for this type of device (it works just like a cell phone) ??? 3. Are special government forms required for importation & operations of this product ??? Thank you very much for any assistance anyone can provide. Best Regards, Michael Taylor PE, NCE Ch. EMC Compliance Engineer Hach - Environmental Water Quality Division, Danaher Corp. Colorado, USA
