BUYER QUESTION
What FCC covers
The FCC states that radio-frequency devices must use the appropriate equipment-authorization procedure before US marketing or importation.
US MARKET GUIDE
Does FCC Authorization Equal Fire-Safety Certification?
For wireless alarm products, radio compliance and fire-product safety evaluation are separate purchasing questions.
BUYER QUESTION
What FCC does not prove
An FCC identifier or authorization does not by itself show that an alarm product meets a fire-safety product standard, building code or listing requirement.
BUYER QUESTION
What buyers should check
Review the radio module or end-product authorization, frequency and label alongside any separate safety listing, installation requirement and authority-having-jurisdiction expectations.
BUYER QUESTION
Model identity matters
Confirm whether an authorization covers the complete finished product or only a radio module, and whether the marketed model and hardware configuration match.
