FCC ID number is the key to a wealth of information about the devices. ( LEARN HOW )
Sometimes it might be handy to have more detail on the inner workings of the device.
Wouldn't it be nice if you could get the full schematics, interior photos, and other technical detail before you even pick up a screwdriver?
Well you may be able to!
The US Federal Communications Commission (or FCC) regulates interstate and international communications by radio
and television, wire and cable, and satellite.
They have very specific guidelines for "equipment authorization" which requires vendors to go through a certification
process for any device that uses the radio spectrum and will be marketed or imported into the US.
One of the requirements is that these devices be labeled with a uniquely assigned "FCC Identifier, or commonly known as FCC ID".
Fortunate for us, this FCC ID number is the key to a wealth of information about the device that you probably didn't
even know existed (as it rarely shows up in any search engine results).
Start here...............
Find schematics, wiring diagrams, etc. for everyday electronic devices
If you already know the FCC ID number or code go directly to FCC ID Search
