Overview
This HTS code covers reception apparatus for television that are not designed to incorporate a video display or screen, and specifically those that are black and white or otherwise monochrome. This classification applies to devices that receive television broadcast signals and are intended for outputting audio or video to an external display device, but do not possess an integrated screen themselves. The monochrome nature is the defining characteristic of this subcategory.
In contrast to its sibling category, 8528.71.40.00, which covers color reception apparatus, this classification is strictly for monochrome devices. Both fall under the broader heading of television reception apparatus not designed to incorporate a screen, but the distinction lies solely in the display capability of the received signal, whether color or monochrome. This focus on the absence of an integrated screen and the monochrome output is crucial for accurate classification.
As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. Therefore, it is important to ensure that the apparatus meets all the criteria of the parent headings and specifically outputs a monochrome signal to an external display. Examples of goods that would fall under this code include certain types of video receivers or tuners that are exclusively designed to process and output a black and white television signal to an external monitor or projector.
