Project Description

WPC (Wireless Planning & Coordination)
WPC (Wireless Planning & Coordination) certification is a mandatory certification in India for products that use wireless technology. Here are some key points that further explain what WPC certification entails:

WPC Certification Process: To obtain WPC certification, manufacturers must submit their products to WPC for testing and evaluation. The products are tested to ensure that they meet the required technical standards, such as frequency range, power output, and modulation scheme.

Types of Products Covered: WPC certification covers a wide range of products, including wireless devices such as Bluetooth devices, Wi-Fi routers, and other devices that use wireless technology.

Frequency Bands: WPC certification is required for products that use certain frequency bands, including the 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz frequency bands used by Wi-Fi devices.

Consequences of Non-Compliance: WPC certification is mandatory for products that use wireless technology, and non-compliance can lead to penalties and legal action. Products that do not comply with WPC technical standards can also cause interference with other wireless devices, which can lead to safety hazards and loss of service.

Certification Bodies: WPC certification can be obtained from various certification bodies authorized by the Indian government, such as TEC (Telecommunication Engineering Centre).

Validity: WPC certification is valid for a certain period, after which it must be renewed to ensure that the product continues to meet the required technical standards.

International Recognition: WPC certification is recognized internationally and is a requirement for products that use wireless technology in many countries.
