  • of unlicensed wireless devices. I. BACKGROUND In 1999, TNL received Commission certification to manufacture, sell and distribute a communications device under FCC ID: JUP-7112-900IP. In 2005, as part of a design upgrade of this device, Trimble changed the power circuitry of this device, which was determined at the time to be a Class I Permissive Change in accordance with Section 2.1043 of the Commission's Rules. In October 2006, during additional testing of this device Trimble discovered that the 2005 design change to the power circuitry had caused the RF conducted power to exceed the peak power limits by approximately 1.4 dB. As soon as Trimble discovered the increase in conducted RF power limits, it ceased production of these devices, corrected the

A certification is an equipment authorization issued by the Commission or one of its designated Telecommunications Certification Bodies, based on representations and test data submitted by the applicant. See 47 C.F.R. �� 2.907(a) and 2.960. 47 C.F.R. �� 2.932 and 2.1043. While arguably a Class II permissive change may have been acceptable in this circumstance, this fact does not affect the outcome of this case, as Commission approval of the Class II permissive change or a new authorization is required prior to marketing. 47 C.F.R. � 2.909(a).

To the extent feasible, what explicit performance objectives should we specify to facilitate monitoring the success of any potential course of action? Modified Equipment. Section 2.1043 of the Commission's rules delineates the types of modifications (or permissive changes) that manufacturers can make to previously certified equipment that do not require equipment recertification. In general, under these rules, manufacturers can permissively make changes that do not degrade radiofrequency characteristics and performance. As with all certified devices, these rules apply to EAS equipment generally. In addition, section 11.34(f)

Freewave further stated that it satisfied the requirements for shielded data and power supply connectors in the DGR-115H by incorporating them internally within the metal enclosure, which was a Class I permissive change under Section 2.1043(b)(1) of the Rules. Freewave asserted that because of this permissive change, no additional ferrite was needed by the customer. Moreover, Freewave asserted that it has always included the power supply with the DGR-115H.
