Although not defined as such, telecommunication centres (Major and Minor) are
described  in section 5 of ETSI TR 101 651 (free download from www.etsi.org). 
 They generally relate to the ‘public telcoms network’
 
A ‘point-of-sale terminal system with a rooftop antenna’ would certainly
not be a ‘telecommunication centre’ in this context

Subject: EN 301 489-1 emissions question
 
I need help from our esteemed CE mark experts!
 
EMC radio equipment standard EN 301 489-1 calls out EN 55022 Class B
limits in general, and Class A limits for "...equipment intended for use
in telecommunication centres only,..."  What is considered a
"telecommunication centre?"  Unfortunately I can not find any definition
for this term in the standard, or in any other standards I have
consulted.  
 
Is a point-of-sale terminal system with a rooftop antenna considered a
"telecommunication centre?"  My understanding is that EN 55022 Class B
limits apply to residential environments, and Class A applies to
commercial and industrial environments.  I would hope in our situation
that Class A will suffice.  If not I am up the proverbial creek without
a paddle...
 
Thanks in advance,
 
David.
