Using pre-qualified antennas

I am considering using the nRF51822 for an upcoming project for a client. It is a simple BLE peripheral, so I would use the S110 SoftDevice for the stack. I am looking at the 4 different antennas listed under "3rd Party Matching Baluns" for the nRF51. Are all 4 of these antenna considered "pre-qualified"? If I use one of these, do I still need to get my end-product qualified for FCC and Bluetooth Compliance? Are there certain product design decisions that can be made now to simplify any needed compliance testing for the product later? Thanks...

Yes you would still need to apply for certifications. They apply to the whole integrated application. The only way to bypass this is using a pre-qualified modules.

A pre-qualified module is probably what you need, at least in regards to simplicity and development time. You can find information about and a list of pre-qualified modules on our website.
