Spokane WA - Today OpenEye announced its
product listing with Underwriter Laboratories (UL/ cUL). UL is an
independent, not-for-profit product-safety testing and certification
organization with more than 100 years of field experience. “This is yet
another example our commitment to our product’s overall quality and its
operational safety,” said James Durning, Certification Manager for OpenEye.
Mr. Durning also indicated OpenEye would be pursuing the necessary safety
and emissions certifications for the European Union in 2003.
At this time, OpenEye ’s product line is also FCC Class B certified.
Established in 1975, products sold under part 15 include,
“Equipment that does not deliberately generate RF energy, as well as at
low-power radio transmitters that do not require individual licensing. Part
15 affects a larger variety of electronic devices than does any other FCC
regulation, imposing RF emissions limits on TV sets and radios, personal
computers and peripherals, remote controls for home alarms and auto
accessories, paging receivers, commercial networking systems, cable TV
boxes, and electronic toys”. [1]
Originally created by the Communications Act of 1934, the FCC regulates
interstate and international communications by radio, television, wire,
satellite and cable. Its jurisdiction covers the 50 states, as well as the
District of Columbia, and U.S. possessions.[2].
