HKCA 1081 Certification Services for WLAN Devices

With FCC’s introduction of the 6GHz frequency band in 2020, significantly more airwaves are open that routers can use to broadcast Wi-Fi signals.

Service Scope

Currently, 70 countries have approved or have 6 GHz regulations under their consideration.

In April 2022, the new HKCA 1081 Issue 1 (For Wi-Fi 6E) was released, which stipulates that for both RF and Safety tests (EN 303 687 and EN/IEC 62368-1) are requested to demonstrate compliance to this new specification.

Authorized as a Local Certification Body (LCB) under Hong Kong Telecommunication equipment Evaluation and Certification (HKTEC) Scheme by the Office of the Communications Authority (OFCA) under ISO/IEC 17065, SGS Hong Kong Ltd has been accredited to carry out the certification of equipment covered by HKCA 1081 (Issue 1) under the LCB Scheme as specified in the information note OFCA I 426 (Issue 5).
