I am going around with an ODM making a HDMI cable for us. Standard cable just has our brand logo molded in the connector shell. Cable is to be used with Category 4 (ITE) Equipment and is sold separately.
The question is CE Marked or not CE Marked. I say it must be CE Marked and they say not required. I have been through the directives and FAQ more than a few times and it seems black and white to me. They say they talked to three different compliance labs, at least one of which is familiar to a lot of us on the west coast, and all say not required. They say their compliance engineers all went to the required training and they all say not required. Am I the only one that thinks these HDMI cables need to be CE Marked? Or am I missing something? Like maybe not required today but required to be marked at some future date like 2019 maybe? Last, assuming I am not on some good psychedelics and CE Marking is required on or for HDMI cables, can I get away with putting the CE Mark on the single unit package, like a label on the poly bag it is sealed in? I thank everybody that helps answer the question and keeps me from consuming more of those pink pills. Happy New Year to all.
