All,

As Ghery reported before (lost in the recent threads, but copied below), the
closely related issue cf definition creepage is being addressed by CISPR SC G
and is already is CDV stage but not yet FDIS.  If it isn't already too late,
this might be the best or only opportunity we'll get for bring the issue up for
discussion in a CISPR committee within the next couple of years.

This would be the opportunity to bring together in some way (?) the designers of
Ethernet and the CISPR committee, so whatever the outcome we can agree the issue
was examined with due engineering dilligence.

Regards,
Eric Lifsey

Subject:  RE: Conducted Emissions on Telecom Ports



This sort of question has already come up in CISPR SC G (the owner of CISPR
22).  There is a CDV (Committee Draft for Vote) being prepared that, if
adopted as a Final Draft International Standard (FDIS), will put a halt to
the definition creep that has been happening with this issue.  The text
doesn't get rid of LANs as a telecom port, but it does prevent
administrations from calling things like RS-232 (yes, Australia has tried to
justify this as a telecom port), USB, 1393, etc telecom ports.  Nothing
happens fast in the IEC, so don't hold your breath waiting for this change
to happen, but we are working on it.  When the CDV comes out there will be a
voting period on it and if it passes, it will then be re-issued as an FDIS
for final vote.  I wouldn't expect any final action for at least a year or
more.
