Compliance Approval Regulations on Controlled Telecommunications Radio-Frequency Devices Article 13

Compliance approval applications of CTRFD or radio-frequency modules (parts) with different brand name, model number, technical specifications or radio-frequency function shall be submitted separately.Where there is any change to the brand name, model number, technical specifications or radio-frequency function of approved CTRFD or radio-frequency modules (parts), the Applicant shall re-apply for compliance approval.Where CTRFD after the change is certified through type approval, the Applicant may apply for type approval of series product(s) in any of the following circumstances:1. The change was made to the antenna, appearance, auxiliary non-radio-frequency functions, power supply methods or the brand name or model name of other products.2. The transmission power, frequency range or the number of channels was reduced through software updates or amendment without changing the hardware specifications, brand name or model number.Where radio-frequency modules (parts) after the change are certified through type approval, the Applicant may apply for type approval of series product(s) in any of the following circumstances:1. Addition to platform that is applicable to radio-frequency modules (parts).2. Change to radio-frequency modules (parts) without changing the radio-frequency function.3. The transmission power, frequency range or number of channels was reduced through software updates or amendment without changing the hardware specifications, brand name or model number.Concerning type approval applications of series products as described in Paragraph 3 and 4, the Applicant shall submit a written statement specifying the difference between the product and certified product model, to the original certification body.Where the change is made only to the appearance of approved CTRFD, the Applicant shall not be required to re-apply for the compliance approval upon receipt of the agreement of original certification body.Regarding CTRFD and radio-frequency modules (parts) certified through type approval, the Applicant may use the original approval label issued with the CTRFD type approval certificate if the change was made to the transmission power, frequency range or number of channels through software update or amendment without changing the hardware specifications, brand name or model number.Where modification is made to approval rules of CTRFD related technical standards, CTRFD or radio-frequency modules (parts) that already received approval certificates shall adhere to the following rules:1. Where the modified technical specifications have specified the implementation period, the Applicant shall re-apply for compliance approval according to the specified period.2. Where the modification does not specify the implementation period, the Applicant shall re-apply for compliance approval within two years after the modification takes place.
中文原文 電信管制射頻器材審驗辦法第13條
不同廠牌、型號、技術規格或射頻性能之電信管制射頻器材或射頻模組(組件),應分別申請審驗。
經取得審驗證明之電信管制射頻器材或射頻模組(組件),如變更其廠牌、型號、技術規格或射頻性能時,除本辦法另有規定外,應重新申請審驗。
變更經型式認證取得審驗證明之電信管制射頻器材,符合下列情形之一者,得申請系列產品型式認證:
一、僅變更天線、外觀、附屬非射頻功能、電源供應方式或廠牌、型號。
二、不變硬體規格、廠牌及型號,僅以韌體或軟體變更減少發射功率、頻率範圍或頻道數。
變更經型式認證取得審驗證明之射頻模組(組件),符合下列情形之一者,得申請系列產品型式認證:
一、射頻模組(組件)增列適用平臺。
二、射頻模組(組件)不變動原射頻性能之調整。
三、不變硬體規格、廠牌及型號,僅以韌體或軟體變更減少發射功率、頻率範圍或頻道數。
依第三項及第四項申請系列產品型式認證者,應以書面敘明該產品與原審驗合格型號產品間之差異性,向原驗證機關(構)申請。
取得審驗證明之電信管制射頻器材僅變更外觀,經原驗證機關(構)同意者,得不申請重新審驗。
電信管制射頻器材、射頻模組(組件),依型式認證取得審驗證明者,不變硬體規格、廠牌及型號,僅以韌體或軟體改變發射功率、頻率範圍或頻道數,驗證機關(構)核發電信管制射頻器材型式認證證明時,得使用原審驗合格標籤。
經取得審驗證明之電信管制射頻器材或射頻模組(組件),於電信管制射頻器材相關技術規範修訂審驗相關章節時,應依下列規定辦理:
一、修訂後之技術規範明定實施期限者,依實施期限,申請重新審驗。
二、修訂後之技術規範未明定實施期限者,應於技術規範修訂後二年內,申請重新審驗。
