Garmin Confidentiality Request for FCC and ISED Application

Confidentiality Letter

This document is a confidentiality request submitted by Garmin International to the FCC and ISED. Garmin is seeking to protect certain parts of its application from public disclosure, citing the need to safeguard its competitive advantage and prevent financial hardship. The request pertains to the application for the device with FCC ID IPH-A4724 and IC 1792A-A4724.

Garmin requests permanent confidentiality for exhibits such as block diagrams, schematics, operational descriptions, parts lists, tune-up procedures, test setup photos, user manuals, external photos, and internal photos. Additionally, Garmin requests short-term confidentiality for a period of 180 days from the grant date for exhibits selected as short term confidential. This is to prevent premature release of sensitive information prior to marketing or release of the product.

The request emphasizes the substantial effort Garmin has invested in developing the product and the potential negative impact of making sensitive information easily accessible to competitors. The document is signed by Brodie Halbfoster, Compliance Engineer at Garmin International Inc.
