Dear Cheng-Wee Lai For EU you will need an E marking, since 1/10 2002 the CE marking is not longer enough for this kind of equipment. This approval process is not very good implemented in EU. You are free to choose any national authority within EU but they don't accept the same test houses. If we go off line I can help you further.
See directive 71/245/EEC and 95/54/EEC. In 95/54/EEC annex I 2.1.10 you can find a definition that includes electrical connections and cables, which you equipment is substituting. Also you will need to comply to the R&TTE directive 99/5/EC.

Dear Cheng-Wee Lai
For EU you will need an E marking, since 1/10 2002 the CE marking is not longer
enough for this kind of equipment. This approval process is not very good
implemented in EU. You are free to choose any national authority within EU but
they don't accept the same test houses. If we go off line I can help you
further.
See directive 71/245/EEC and 95/54/EEC.
In 95/54/EEC annex I 2.1.10 you can find a definition that includes electrical
connections and cables, which you equipment is substituting. Also you will need
to comply to the R&TTE directive 99/5/EC.
