RF Certification when not using BLE

[HSh]

Hello Experts,

We need to get an RF certificate for our product with nRF52840 (it's actually nRF52840 USB dongle).

In our case, the BLE stack is initialized in the central mode but the scan has not been started. Note that this is not a BLE product in this scenario. 

We need to get the certificate that shows BLE is NOT transmitting at all. 

I was wondering if we can pass such test in the aforementioned scenario (BLE stack initialized, no scan, no advertise).

Thanks

If you do not start scanning or advertising then you should pass a certification test where they monitor if the nRF52840 is transmitting or not.

Thank you Bjorn. Are you aware of any Nordic's documents explaining RF characteristic?

I am afraid that we do not have any documents other than whats stated in the nRF52840 Product Specification in the RADIO section and the Reference layout/schematic. 

What are you looking for specifically? Radiation patterns?

Best regards
