Hello Robert,
In reply to your message of 2 October, where you asked:
We have received a request for us to obtain type approval on our
1000Base-LX LAN card for connection to the public network. Is this
necessary? I didn't think so. If so can anyone provide details on
the testing
Roger,
Thanks for the contact. I will do just that and post the response
from Mr. Bogers. Anyone want to bet a beer on this one?? ;-)
Thx,
Joe

Joe,
Perhaps Peter (who works for a test lab and not a manufacturer) could infer
that, because the interface on the product he is evaluating was designed to
be an SELV Circuit, it is not intended to connect to a network that extends
beyond a building and further that the RTTED does not apply.
Joe et al,
It seems a little overambitious to declare it under RTTE as Network
Equipment did not even require type approval under the old TTE Directive. If
you need a comment right from the source I suggest you contact Mark Bogers
(mark.bog...@cec.eu.int), he is the contact point for RTTE issues.
Greetings!

Dave,
My position was based on my particular interface (in this case also E1)
and, based on my interpretation, concluded that it does not fall under the
scope of the RTTE Directive. Based on your examples below, I can see that
apparently there are PSTN interfaces that can be classified as
Joe,
Maybe I have missed something here but how does the TNV-X vs SELV from a safety
perspective define if the product falls under the RTTE Directive?
Many telcom interfaces are SELV from a safety perspective and clearly fall
under the RTTE Directive. For example; V.11/V.24/V.35/X.21 when

As Dave Clement explained, your product falls under the RTTE directive.
Your Declaration of Conformity to the RTTE directive, is not saying we

Office, where the confusion seems to be). To declare compliance to RTTE,

Dave,
Please reference the subject title of this thread. My position is that
by declaring compliance to the RTTE Directive, we would then be stating
that we have designed to and/or are capable of connecting to the PSTN. This
would contradict our IEC 60950 SELV classification and would
Hi Robert,
I'm glad to see you're still in the game. I think the issue here is
that terminal equipment is that which connects directly or indirectly to
the PSTN. This type of product does neither as it installed in the Central
Office and is NOT in free circulation on the market in the EU
