Sonos and the FCC

So, this isn't really an "Advanced Setup", but there are many who enjoy keeping up on Sonos and whatever their newest products are by going through the FCC database, and we tend to be "advanced" users. As a result, I thought I'd post this list of FCC IDs registered to Sonos. I will do what I can to keep this list current over time.

Notably missing from this list are the Connect:Amp (ZP120), Connect (ZP90), and first generation Play:5. The RM000, RM001, and RM002 wireless cards were certified to be modular RF components, so they could be used in multiple devices without those devices needing separate FCC IDs. I assume this is why specific FCC IDs were not created for these three Sonos devices.

I don't know why there are two Play:1 models with different FCC IDs, though some sites elsewhere on the internet have identified one as being for China.

Grantee Code: SBV - Sonos Inc.

FCCID - Product name/model

RM038 - S38/One SL (per FCC Product Markings image)
RM027 - S27/Roam
RM026 - S26/Sub v2

RM019 - S19/Arc
RM017 - S17/Move

RM015 - S16/Amp
RM014 - S14/Beam
RM013 - S15/Connect (updated wireless card from Mini PCI to Mini PCIe, unknown if other changes)
RM012 - S13/Sonos One

RM010 - S100/Play:5 Gen2
RM009 - Play:1
RM008 - Boost
RM007 - Play:1
RM006 - Playbar
RM005 - Sub
RM004 - Play:3
RM002 - Wireless Mini-PCI Card (WMP-N06; considered to be Sonos original equipment)
RM001 - Wireless Mini-PCI Card (RM001; Alpha Networks WMP-N06)

    The S13 *is* the Sonos One, that is how it is named in its device xml file. S15 is the not-yet-released Connect (due in March).

    Yeah, they're doing a refresh of the Connect, likely to move away from the old modular wireless card (internal pictures from the FCC show a Mini PCIe card now inside). Refreshing the Connect gives them the flexibility to use the same Mini PCIe card in the Connect that is used in the other speakers, instead of the old Mini PCI card. Though it's still only certified for 2.4 GHz, so even if they are using the same wireless card as the speakers, they're not using the 5 GHz radio in it.

    Shame no 5ghz. That dashes all hopes of it being a super Connect (able to pair multiple speakers into 5.1)

    Table Lamp: https://fccid.io/FHO-E1776

    In addition, the detail of the table lamp filings suggest that the electronics are those of a Play:1, and that Sonos's internal product code is S20:

    Thanks for the info! I've updated the first post to include "Non-Sonos products with Sonos technology" in them. I did that since those kinds of items will fall under other companies' FCC "Grantee ID" codes, rather than under Sonos'.
