Two months ago, we reported on an unannounced Suunto heart rate monitor—model SHRM2—after spotting it in regulatory filings with Malaysia’s SIRIM and the UAE’s TDRA database.
Now, the upcoming heart rate monitor has officially cleared another major hurdle: the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC).
What the FCC Listing Reveals
The filing, registered under FCC ID RYPSHRM2 and granted on July 23, 2026, confirms that Suunto Oy is preparing this new chest strap or sensor pod for international distribution.
While full internal and external photos are currently locked under short-term confidentiality (standard practice until product announcement), the regulatory documents reveal a few key details:
-
Model Identifier: SHRM2
-
Device Description: Heart Rate Monitor
-
Connectivity: 2.4 GHz digital transmission system (2402–2480 MHz), which points to standard Bluetooth Low Energy and ANT+ protocol support for pairing with Suunto sports watches, bike computers, and third-party apps.
-
Confidentiality Date: The short-term confidentiality request is set through January 19, 2027, hinting that an official announcement could happen anytime in the coming months.
Connecting the Dots
Suunto’s current flagship heart rate chest strap, the Suunto Smart Sensor, has been around for several years without a major hardware overhaul.
Seeing the SHRM2 progress from Asian and Middle Eastern certifications (SIRIM, TDRA) to North American regulatory clearance (FCC) confirms this isn’t just a regional test—it is a full-scale global rollout in the making.
We will keep tracking database updates and share official specs, pricing, and features as soon as Suunto officially lifts the curtain.
