  • Grantee codes that begin with a number (2-9) are five characters in length. The second through fifth characters may be numbers or alphabetic characters.

• The product Code is the second portion of the FCC ID that begins after the grantee code. The product code may include hyphens and/or dashes (-). The product code is assigned by the Grantee.
