A Bluetooth module needs to have 2 factors certification.

1. BQB Qualification
BQB testing is including RF PHY & Profiles interoperability testing.
Module only applied BQB with BOTH 2 tests can comply with Module Policy.
SIG Declaration ID (also known as DID) is essential.

Raytac's MDBT40/MDBT40-P module past hardware RF PHY testing but also has past all Nordic profiles interoperability tests.
Applied Profiles included as

1. Proximity Profile; 2. Heart Rate Profile; 3. Health Thermometer Profile; 4. Blood Pressure Profile; 5. Running Speed & Cadence Profile; 6. HID Over GATT Profile; 7. Alert Notification Profile; 8. Glucose Profile; 9. Cycling Speed & Cadence 


As such, customers who is using Raytac's module to build up the products can follow the Module Policy  which means can just sublist all products under single DID's Product List without applying another.

Note: Raytac's SIG is applied under Subsidary's name as Ginstar Corporation.
QDID: 60912 / DID: D023258


2. Regional RF Safety Regulation
Many of Raytac's customers are curious why Raytac modules have so many no. on the shielding case.
Similar to BQB qualification, to have Antenna+Shielding case+ Qualification Report No. on shielding is essential condition to comply Module Policy for regional RF Safety Regulation.
Different from BQB, Regional RF Safety Regulation is law enforce issue in custom for every border.
Raytac' MDBT40/MDBT40-P has complied following safety regulation in different countries by Module Policy.
Excepting CE and RCM which are not conducting Module policy, Raytac modules can bring a easy way for all customers to save time and cost without further regulation testing again in finished products.
