Hi David, I believe 'Wired Network Ports' are cables like Ethernet etc, that are over 3m in length when used. There is also fibre-optic leads with metal shield and antenna ports.
My opinion is HDMI and RS-232 cables would fall outside that scope for Conducted Emissions testing for CISPR 32, as they are Signal and Control cables respectively. Rob. From: itl-emc user group [mailto:itl...@itl.co.il] Sent: 02 October 2017 06:39 To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: [PSES] CISPR 32 CAUTION - EXTERNAL EMAIL Hello CISPR 32 defines analogue/digital data port as signal/control port (3.1.30), antenna port (3.1.3), wired network port (3.1.32), broadcast receiver tuner port (3.1.8), or optical fibre port (3.1.25) with metallic shielding and/or metallic strain relief member(s). Definition 3.1.30 signal/control port: port intended for the interconnection of components of an EUT, or between an EUT and local AE and used in accordance with relevant functional specifications (for example for the maximum length of cable connected to it). Note 1 to entry: Examples include RS-232, Universal Serial Bus (USB), High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI), IEEE Standard 1394 ("Fire Wire"). Tables A.11, A.12, A.13 do not mention signal/control ports. Does this mean that HDMI cables or RS-232 cables are exempt from conducted emissions test?.
