FCC PROPOSES FORFEITURE AGAINST BEHRINGER USA, INC.
FOR MARKETING UNAUTHORIZED EQUIPMENT
Washington, D.C. -- The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) today proposed a
$1 million forfeiture against Behringer USA, Inc. for apparent violation of the FCC’s equipment
authorization rules.
The Commission concluded that Behringer apparently violated the FCC’s rules by
marketing in the United States at least 50 models of unauthorized digital audio devices. The
rules require that these devices be tested and verified compliant with FCC technical standards
prior to marketing them in the United States.
In proposing its forfeiture amount, the Commission considered that Behringer marketed
the unauthorized devices for more than five years overall and for almost a year after it was on
notice of the FCC's investigation, and that Behringer derived substantial financial [g=105]gain[/g] from the
sale of the unauthorized devices.
Action by the Commission, February 16, 2006, by Notice of Apparent Liability (FCC 06-13).
Chairman Martin, Commissioners Copps, Adelstein and Tate.
