    • Intentional radiators – FCC Part 15, Subpart C
    • U-NII without DFS intentional radiators – FCC Part 15, Subpart E
    • U-NII with DFS intentional radiators – FCC Part 15, Subpart E
    • UWB intentional radiators – FCC Part 15, Subpart F

    Applus+ Laboratories is broadening its testing, certification and global-market-access portfolio for electrical and electronic devices that incorporate connectivity technology. This is a growing market due to the high technological demand of of IoT devices, which enables the connecting of all sorts of equipment with a view to enhanced functionality, process improvements through access to data, and even the development of new business models.
     
    This FCC recognition follows last year’s accreditation to test against the essential requirements of the European Radio Equipment Directive (2014/53/EU) and enables Applus+ laboratories to carry out conformity testing on radio equipment intended for both markets.
