Product Certification Service Organization

1. Introduction to Certification

India's WPC (Wireless Planning & Coordination Wing) is an institution that regulates wireless regulations in India. All wireless products need to be approved by WPC before entering the market. There are two types of frequency bands in India: free and unopened. For the free and open frequency bands, such equipment only needs to apply for an ETA (Equipment Type Approval) certificate; while other frequency bands that are not free and open need to apply for a license. Both ETA and license holders need to be locally registered companies. Based on CE R & TTE or FCC ID (India local standard), 2G/3G/4G requires mobile operators to apply.

3. Certification category

The wireless certification of wireless products in India can be divided into two modes: ETA (Equipment Type of Approval) certification and license license. The basis for the judgment comes from the working frequency band used by the applied equipment.
1. ETA (Equipment Type of Approval) certification: free and open frequency bands such as 13.56MHz, 433MHz, 2.4GHz, 5.725-5.825GHz, etc.;
For ETA certification, the product does not need to be sent to India for local testing, India recognizes European standards, and the product has an R&TTE report to submit an application for approval to WPC, and WPC signs the certificate through the audit report.

2.License license: non-free and open frequency bands, such as GSM, WCDMA mobile phones;
For the license, it needs to meet the standard requirements of India.
