§2.910. Incorporation by reference. — Inbound Citations

(b) For equipment operating in the authorized radio services, measurements are required as specified in §§ 2.1046, 2.1047, 2.1049, 2.1051, 2.1053, 2.1055 and 2.1057. The measurement procedures in ANSI C63.26-2015 (incorporated by reference, see § 2.910) are acceptable for performing compliance measurements for equipment types covered by the measurement standard. See also § 2.947 for acceptable measurement procedures.

(b) Sections 2.906 through 2.1077 describe the procedure for a Supplier's Declaration of Conformity and the procedures to be followed in obtaining certification and the conditions attendant to such a grant.

(d) When the measurement method used requires the testing of radiated emissions on a validated test site, the site attenuation must comply with either: the requirements of ANSI C63.4a-2017 (incorporated by reference, see § 2.910) or the requirements of sections 5.4.4 through 5.5 of ANSI C63.4-2014 (incorporated by reference, see § 2.910).

(1) Measurement facilities used to make radiated emission measurements from 30 MHz to 1 GHz must comply with the site validation requirements in either ANSI C63.4a-2017 or ANSI C63.4-2014 (clause 5.4.4);

(2) Measurement facilities used to make radiated emission measurements from 1 GHz to 18 GHz must comply with the site validation requirement of ANSI C63.25.1-2018 (incorporated by reference, see § 2.910);

(3) Measurement facilities used to make radiated emission measurements from 18 GHz to 40 GHz must comply with the site validation requirement of ANSI C63.4-2014 (clause 5.5.1 a) 1)), such that the site validation criteria called out in CISPR 16-1-4:2010-04 (incorporated by reference, see § 2.910) is met.

(4) Test site revalidation must occur on an interval not to exceed three years.

(1) Successful completion of an ISO/IEC 17011 (incorporated by reference, see § 2.910) peer review, such as being a signatory to an accreditation agreement that is acceptable to the Commission.

(a) Prior to October 30, 2025, a prospective or accredited testing laboratory or telecommunication certification body must be capable of meeting the requirements and conditions of ISO/IEC 17025:2005(E) (incorporated by reference, see § 2.910) or ISO/IEC 17025:2017(E) (incorporated by reference, see § 2.910). On or after October 30, 2025, a prospective or accredited testing laboratory or telecommunication certification body must be capable of meeting the requirements and conditions of ISO/IEC 17025:2017(E) (incorporated by reference, see § 2.910).

(4) By means of accreditation specifying the group of equipment to be certified and the applicable regulations for product evaluation, meets all appropriate specifications in ISO/IEC 17065 (incorporated by reference, see § 2.910) for the scope of equipment the TCB would certify.

(1) The certification system must be based on type testing as identified in ISO/IEC 17065 (incorporated by reference, see § 2.910).
