The RTTE is replaced, in part by the RED (Radio Equipment Directive – 2014/53/EU) which covers the ‘use of spectrum’ topic and no longer calls for the alert symbol.
From RED … “Article 50 Repeal Directive 1999/5/EC is repealed with effect from 13 June 2016. References to the repealed Directive shall be construed as references to this Directive and shall be read in accordance with the correlation table in Annex VIII. Article 51 Entry into force This Directive shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union. [i.e. early June, 2014]” I think the above means the RED is in transition and you may chose to follow it vs. the RTTED. Thus an alert symbol might not be required.

Hi all, I know the 2.4 GHz band for WiFi no longer requires the Alert sign as the last restriction on use fell out in 2012, but I have a question on the 5GHz bands: Specifically, if there is an EU-wide restriction on use (indoor use with power limits based on sub-band), is the Alert symbol still required? If it is not, what is the rationale for excluding it? Note that I have been operating under the assumption that the Alert sign is required, but I haven't had to make the decision on whether or not to apply the Alert sign since 2011 when the 2.4GHz band still required it, so I want to check & be sure.
