Yes it was KDB number 981555. But, as mentioned the specific question was for detachable power cables. That being said I have personally witnessed many products with detachable cables with loose ferrites in the box for the customer to install especially on recent televisions.

If so, what is the number? That is where the FCC makes rulings on a near day to day bases. And those reasons are very similar to the ones given for the EU requirement. ________________________________ From: "Bell, Chad" <chad_b...@bose.com<mailto:chad_b...@bose.com>> To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG<mailto:EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG> Sent: Friday, October 4, 2013 8:49 AM Subject: Re: [PSES] Ferrite on LAN Cable Gary, Here is the response from the FCC on the same question except we asked about adding a ferrite on the power cable. “The power cord with ferrite snaps and clamps for conducted emission compliance has got to be supplied as one unit. That is to say, the ferrite snaps and clamps must be incorporated into the power cord such that the purchaser of the electronic device does not have to put the ferrite snap or clamp onto the power cord when he or she is assembling the device for operation. The reason is that the FCC's historically knows that the buyer or purchaser of the electronic device will not put the ferrite snap or clamp onto the power cord and as a result the manufacturer must incorporate it into the power cord.” Sincerely, Chad Bell From: Myers, Gary [mailto:gary.my...@xerox.com] Sent: Friday, October 04, 2013 8:11 AM To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG<mailto:EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG> Subject: [PSES] Ferrite on LAN Cable EMC Experts, If an ITE product requires a ferrite on an external LAN cable in order to comply with FCC Part 15 and EU EMC Directive requirements, is it legally required that the manufacturer include the LAN cable fitted with the ferrite with the ITE product, or can the manufacturer simply provide the ferrite along with detailed installation instructions for the end user to add the ferrite to his own LAN cable?
