Interpretation of FCC certification test items for 2.4GHZ wireless products
If 2.4GHZ wireless products want to be sold in the North American market, they need to apply for FCC ID. Common products include: wireless mouse, wireless keyboard, etc. Due to factors such as product classification and application technology, the certification tests for different products are also different. They are not the same, today we mainly come to understand the content of FCC certification certification requirements and test standard analysis for this kind of product.
FCC certification standards:
FCC PART 15.207 Conducted limits
FCC PART 15.209 Radiated emission limits
FCC PART 15.215 Additional provisions to the general radiated emission limitations
FCC PART 15.247 Operation within the bands 902–928 MHz, 2400–2483.5 MHz, and 5725–5850 MHz
FCC PART 15.249 Operation within the bands 902–928 MHz, 2400–2483.5 MHz,5725–5875 MHZ, and 24.0–24.25 GHz
FCC certification test requirements:In the FCC PART 15 specification, there are regulations stating the test requirements for products with operating frequencies in the frequency range of 2.4-2.4835Ghz; the main reference standards are 15.247 and 15.249 (the two are in parallel, and 15.249 can be used for devices with low power) , see the table below:

Magnet reminder
Of course, there are some other parameters such as antenna gain, antenna technical requirements, maximum power, antenna type, etc. that also need to be known during FCC certification. There are various types of 2.4G wireless products currently sold in the North American market, but the FCC test specifications they follow are unified, so the FCC certification of 2.4GHZ wireless products can be carried out according to the requirements in the above table. For specific details, please consult GCDCs.
