What is the FCC?

The FCC, or Federal Communications Commission, is a United States Government Agency charged with regulating interstate and international communications by radio, television, wire, satellite, and cable. FCC rules prohibit electronic equipment used in the United States from emitting any Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) that endangers the functioning of a radio navigation service or other safety services or seriously degrades, obstructs, or repeatedly interrupts a radio communications service. The FCC has established maximum emission levels for unintentional radiators based on whether they are intended for commercial or household use. Products intended for household use are required to meet Class B limits, while products intended for commercial use are required to meet Class A limits. Representative samples of Geist products are tested by an FCC Registered Lab to the Class A limits. All Geist products are compliant with FCC regulations.
