Jeff, One possible contact is:
Benjamim Da Silva Medeiros c. Galvao EMC Manager Integration and Testing Laboratory Instituto Nacional De Pesquisas Espaciais [email protected] (e-mail) (55) 12 3945-6275 (phone) (55) 12 3941-1884 (fax) The Brazilian space agency EMC lab doesn't test very many space craft each year, so they also perform EMC and telecom testing for industry. They are located in Sao Jose dos Campos, about an hour drive outside Sao Paulo. We (members of the IEEE EMC Society Board of Directors) got a tour of their facility last November when we were in Sao Paulo for a meeting. The EMC capabilities are an older 10 meter chamber, a shielded room plus the usual stuff for the other tests. They have a brand new 10 meter chamber under construction that looks like it will be world class in all respects when finished. Multi-purpose, complete with dynamometer for testing automobiles. Send Benjamim a message asking about their test services. And, if you get a chance to accompany the EUT and witness the tests, go! The hospitality in Brazil is fantastic. Just leave plenty of time for getting your visa. At least you can drive up to SF to visit the consulate and handle the details. While you're down there, try a caipirinha. http://www.maria-brazil.org/caipirinha.htm for more information. Any time I smell limes I'm transported back to Brazil in a flash! Ghery S. Pettit Intel Corporation From: Collins, Jeffrey [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, April 17, 2003 1:30 AM To: 'EMC-PSTC' Subject: RE: Brazil Telecom Homologations Group, Are you aware of any changes in Brazil telecom requirements effective in August of 2003, that will require: "Conducted Emissions on the Telecom ports" ? I'm currently using Res. 237 Nov 2002 for Cat-3 Equipment. ( EMC emissions and Conducted emissions on the Pwr Line) Also, can anyone recommend a company / consultant that specializes in Latin American & South American telecom approvals? Brazil requires in-country testing for telecom products.
