Equipment used in commercial settings is considered Class "A". Class "B"
digital devices are those intended for use in the home. FCC limits for RF
radiation differ depending on the application of the digital device. The
test distances for RF radiation are approximately three times closer for
Class "B" than Class "A".

Used to be two ratings for computers -- one was a low radiation type
Can't find it on Google

People have already mentioned the class A and class B ratings, which I
think you are referring to. I have no idea if it's still in place, or
people are working from memory.

My memory says the stuff rated for business was less stringent, and if
that's a proper memory, I always thought it was because at home one is
surrounded by consumer devices like radios and tv sets, and the likelihood
of interference to those devices is high, hence higher standards.
