Wireless Certification and Testing 

From Bluetooth® to Wireless USB to ZigBee to RFID and all the various 802.11 standards, including UltrawideBand (802.15) and WiMax (802.16) products, we've seen it all. We operate an FCC-certified Telecommunications Certification Body to expedite your formal grant of approval and get your product to market on schedule.

In addition, 51³Ô¹ÏÍøFremont currently provides Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) testing services to manufacturers of 802.11(a/n) devices and other wireless technologies that operate in the 5GHz range. Wireless services include radio requirements, DFS testing and certifications for North America via our in-house TCB. For the European Union, we can issue Notified Body Opinions specific to the R&TTE Directive and the Radio Equipment Directive, RED. Once you have the RED reports, let us help you complete the global approvals to market your new product worldwide.
