Hi, I'm looking at the Verizon NEBS requirements, which along with GR-63 and GR-1089 call out the design guidelines in GR-78. Does GR-78 compliance have to be assessed independently for Verizon compliance, or is manufacturer's declaration on the NEBS checklist sufficient (section 2.8.1 would suggest otherwise, but design guidelines are not as readily measurable as say, environmental or EMC criteria)?
Also, has anyone out there put together a fire resistance database in accordance with GR-63 4.3.2.1 before? Was it necessary for Verizon compliance? Or is shelf/frame-level flame testing and needle-flame component testing sufficient, provided the split-frame infra-red video requirements for Verizon are met? Thanks in advance, Dave Wilson Manager, Quality & Compliance Alidian Networks, Inc.
