Clearly-marked consumer products are likely exempt.
Some Hikvision security cameras.But when it comes to Hytera, Hikvision, and Dahua security cameras, they may just need to brand their products more carefully to escape a ban. Technically, the FCC is only denying authorization to equipment designed “for the purpose of public safety, security of government facilities, physical security surveillance of critical infrastructure, and other national security purposes.
“For these three companies, we will require them to document what safeguards they will put in place on marketing or sale for these purposes,” reads part of a statement from FCC chair Jessica Rosenworcel. “[W]e are putting in place a freeze on all of their telecommunications and video surveillance equipment authorization applications until that work is done.”
So if they agree to market the cams to consumers, or small businesses, they can probably be imported and sold just fine. Also, it’s not like the FCC is revoking authorizations for existing products., which basically just says that the FCC won’t review any authorization applications submitted by any company on that Covered List. That means it’ll be a big deal when any new companies arrive on the list, too.
