Amund has opened my eyes to the literal meaning of R&TTE equipment by
pointing me to the equipment list.  I thought I had a good idea of what is
covered but now I am not sure.

Item 4 under terminal equipment states
Wired data equipment (X.21, X.25, Ethernet, token ring, token bus, TCP/IP,
frame relay) 
This appears to me that any device with an Ethernet port, no matter what its
function, must comply with the R&TTE Directive. Just to cite one of many
examples, since almost all PC's have Ethernet ports does this now mean that
they are no longer ITE but are now R&TTE ?

What says the rest of the group??
