Sorry, I forgot to mention that the receiver is also subject to the appropriate ETSI spectrum managment standard. Parameters may include adjacent channel selectivity, blocking and spurious emissions. For example, there are three standards for Short Range Devices: EN300220, EN300330 and EN 300440. There are a large number of other standards that apply to other types of receivers.
Good luck!

Receivers are subject to the the requirements of RTTE Directive (see the note in clause 3.1 of EN55022). Your product may also be subject to the appropriate ETSI EMC standard per clause 3.1 of EN55022. If so, the standards would be EN301489-1 plus the particular part that applies to your product. However, if the particular part does not exist, you would use ETS300683. These standards are available for free download at the ETSI web site. Note that these standards also reference EN 61000-4-5, but you have to follow the levels and acceptance criteria specified in the ETSI standard. Richard Woods Sensormatic Electronics Tyco International -----Original Message----- From: Spencer, David H [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, January 16, 2002 9:36 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Surge Applications Using the following references: IEC 61000-4-5:1995 and EN55024:1998. I have to test a piece of ITE equipment which has an receive antenna (the antenna is connected to the EUT using 50 ohm coaxial cable). Is the EUT's antenna cable subject to surge test per table 2 of EN55024? Note 2 specifies only cables which connect to outdoor cables. This cable does that. Table 2's title is "Immunity, signal ports and telecommunications ports" I feel that an antenna fits under this category. If so (moving on from EN55024) How do I perform the test? Figures 13 and 14 in IEC61000-4-5 illustrates the test set up for shielded lines. However, there really only seems to be one EUT. I suspect I could consider the antenna as EUT 2 and the actual unit as EUT 1. In that case the testing is relatively straight forward. If this all sounds correct, then this is just a sanity check. If I'm incorrect or missed something...could you point me in the right direction.
