Dear List Members,

I haven't worked with land-line telecom hardware for many years. I have a device intended for use by handicapped persons that will enable a visual alarm if the land-line phone is ringing, so the device is listen-only. I've found what appears to be good and reliable guidance concerning TTE equipment at this link which indicates that TTE equipment need only comply with the EMCD and LVD:

http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/sectors/rtte/regulatory-framework/index_en.htm

However, I'm seeing DoCs and product specs for current TTE equipment that reference the ETSI 201 703 and "TBR" series of standards, and those standards are not listed under the R&TTED, EMCD, or LVD on the Europa Harmonized Standards pages.

Can someone shed some light on this confusing issue? Is TTE really not required to meet a line connection standard of some type as the Europa link above indicates?

Thanks very much,

Carl
