This document represents a formal request for long-term confidentiality from VTech Telecommunications Ltd to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The request pertains to the application for certification of a VTech device, specifically identified by FCC ID EW780-3612-00. VTech seeks to protect sensitive information related to the device's technical design and functionality.
In accordance with Sections 0.457 and 0.459 of the Commission's Rules, VTech is requesting confidential treatment for specific materials submitted as part of the certification process. These materials include the device's block diagram, schematics, and operation description. VTech argues that the public disclosure of these materials would reveal proprietary and confidential information, potentially causing unjustified harm to the company's competitive position in the market. Releasing such information could provide competitors with an unfair advantage, undermining VTech's investments in research and development.
