FCC Definitions
Class A digital device. A digital device
that is marketed for use in a commercial,
industrial or business environment,
exclusive of a device which is marketed for
use by the general public or is intended to
be used in the home.
Class B digital device. A digital device
that is marketed for use in a residential
environment notwithstanding use in
commercial, business and industrial
environments. Examples of such devices
include, but are not limited to, personal
computers, calculators, and similar
electronic devices that are marketed for use
by the general public.
NOTE: The responsible party may also
qualify a device intended to be marketed
in a commercial, business or industrial
environment as a Class B device, and in
fact is encouraged to do so, provided the
device complies with the technical
specifications for a Class B digital
device. In the event that a particular type
of device has been found to repeatedly
cause harmful interference to radio
communications, the Commission may
classify such a digital device as a Class B
digital device, regardless of its intended
use.
For a Class A digital device or peripheral,
the instructions furnished the user shall
include the following or similar statement,
placed in a prominent location in the text of
the manual:
This equipment has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for a Class A
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference when the equipment
is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential
area is likely to cause harmful interference in
which case the user will be required to correct
the interference at his own expense.
For a Class B digital device or peripheral, the
instructions furnished the user shall include the
following or similar statement, placed in a
prominent location in the text of the manual:
This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined
by turning the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference
by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced
radio/TV technician for help.
The provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this
