FCC (US) and CE (EU) certification are important indicators of anti-cheat device quality and regulatory compliance. Certified devices have been tested to meet electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards, ensuring they do not interfere with other electronic equipment and are safe to operate in commercial environments.
FCC certification (for the US market) verifies that the device’s RF emissions are within legal limits and that it does not cause harmful interference to other devices. CE certification (for the EU and UK markets) covers both EMC and safety requirements. A certified device has been tested by an accredited laboratory and meets all applicable standards.
Uncertified devices — which are common at the $30-80 price point — have not been tested for EMC compliance. They may emit RF noise that interferes with nearby machines, WiFi networks, or other equipment. In venues with dense machine layouts, an uncertified device can cause more problems than it solves by interfering with the machines it is supposed to protect.
The Gen2, V5, K8, and AI Trojan Terminator devices are all CE-certified. FCC certification documentation is available upon request for US buyers.
If your arcade is showing signs of evaluating anti-cheat device certification, send me a message with your machine model and a photo of your setup. I will do a quick remote check for free.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is certification legally required for anti-cheat devices?
A: In most jurisdictions, electronic equipment sold commercially must meet EMC standards. Certification is the proof of compliance.
Q: Can I buy an uncertified device and still use it legally?
A: Using an uncertified device in a commercial setting may violate local regulations. Check with your local authority for specific requirements.
Q: How do I verify a device’s certification?
A: Ask the seller for the certification document number. You can verify CE and FCC numbers through official databases online.
Q: Does certification affect device performance?
A: Certification does not guarantee performance, but it indicates that the device has been tested to meet minimum quality and safety standards.
