I am looking for the FCC position on requirements for IT equipment that is used as a “beta,” or demo,” or “proof of concept.” The hardware is an unintentional radiator that would be Class A when finalized and tested. The hardware is not production hardware. The equipment is not sold; it is on loan and is ultimately returned to the manufacturer.
I know that server manufacturers provide loaner preproduction hardware that has no FCC certification to OEMs for testing. Anyone point me to the rules? I can’t find any mention 47CFR Part 15.
