RE: Harmonized Standard
Kirk, In Europe the harmonized standards for GSM/GPRS are contained in the Official Journal of the European Communities dated 9.3.2002 ref 2002/C 62/03. I recommend you strongly to get your product approved by the Global Certification Forum which has requirements far more above the RTTE directive.

Metro Ethernet and Approval
Hi there , By looking at the http://www.metroethernet.org www.metroethernet.org I have been reading some recent information about “Ethernet” technology as metropolitan Ethernet. In the following article : http://www.vnunet.com/News/1139377 http://www.vnunet.com/News/1139377 “The completion of Metro Ethernet service specifications in August this year may accelerate the take-up of the technology by telecoms carriers, leading to a wider range of cheaper, faster, more reliable wide area network (Wan) services becoming available to corporates. “ Can somebody give me some light about the future work for approval ? Can we think reasonably that the new technology “Metro Ethernet” will require approval as it could extend a LAN to a WAN ? Thanks to share your thoughts Pierre-Marie Andre Senior Approval Engineer
Dark Fiber and Regulation
Hi there, Could somebody bring some light (!) on the so called “Dark Fiber” offering. Here is one definition I found : Dark fiber is optical fiber infrastructure (cabling and repeaters) that is currently in place but is not being used. Optical fiber conveys information in the form of light pulses so the dark means no light pulses are being sent Dark fiber service is service provided by local exchange carriers (LECs) for the maintenance of optical fiber transmission capacity between customer locations in which the light for the fiber is provided by the customer rather than the LEC. My question : The LAN product I am looking for regulation is conform to IEEE 802.3z,so the interface have been defined. Is there any standards or technical specifications for the “Dark Fiber” infrastructure ? Should I ask to each Dark Fiber Provider to get this info ? Best regards Pierre-Marie Andre Senior Approval Engineer
RE2: Dark Fiber and Regulation
Marko, Thanks for your comments. My understanding is that a “Dark Fiber” has an other meaning : a service offered by a Telco or a service provider to extend the usage of your fiber LAN for example to increase the distance from one mile to 100 or more. In this case the fiber adapter, in my case it is a Gigabit Ethernet, will be connected to a leased line belonging to a Telco or a Service provider. So I would think as far as compliance some countries could require a Telecom approval on top of the EMC/Safety. Right ?

For example on a particular link, 5 DWDM channels may be in-use while 35 are dark.

Many telcom interfaces are SELV from a safety perspective and clearly fall under the RTTE Directive. For example; V.11/V.24/V.35/X.21 when connected to WAN services via a CSU/DSU and ISDN Basic Rate S/T. Also, I believe Peter's original post stated intrabuilding and did not state it was CO equipment. In any case there are expectations and I believe you are going to spend more time trying to justify why you did not declare to the RTTE than if you just do it. Again because of expectations I would have a TBR12/13 test report to back up the declaration even if it's no longer mandatory. NOTE: meeting the over voltage requirements of these standards has nothing to do with the classification of the port from a safety standpoint since the surges are applied to the AC mains (not even applicable ifDC powered) Dave Clement Motorola Inc.

RE: Regulatory General Discussion : ouput of Compliance group
Doug, thanks you for your inputs. The good argument is really in the FULL implication of the Compliance group in the design process right ? with full power to sign off the design changes best regards to all compliance engineers Pierre-Marie Andre Senior Approval Engineer -Original Message- From: Doug McKean [mailto:dmck...@auspex.com] Sent: samedi 15 décembre 2001 01:26 To: EMC-PSTC Discussion Group Subject: Re: Regulatory General Discussion : ouput of Compliance group Andre, Pierre-Marie wrote: So has anybody some thoughts or argument on the measurement or evaluation of an Compliance Group ? Well, I'd hate to let the dirty little secret out of the bag for those of us who would fall under such and evaluation. Important in such an evaluation would be that the company has allowed the compliance engineer to have significant input to the design/mfring processes. I've been in companies where evaluations from the compliance engineer amounted to nothing more than a suggestion. Very frustrating. Other places had the compliance engineer greatly involved as a signatory in product release and with ECR/ECOs. Start with an ideal world where the compliance engineer has complete planning, budgeting, signatory/approval powers with the complete product cycle from prototype-to-product release-to product obsolescence. Consider that as the complete model. Then, as the person has less and less involvement/approval power in those areas, they are thus less responsible for them and thus, they are not to be evaluated in those areas. You'll probably find the typical compliance engineer ends up in reality scheduling tests w/no approval powers, has input to ECR/ECOs but no signatory powers, inputs into product design by way of memos, sometimes are the last to know about significant design changes, and might answer to someone who knows little about compliance engineering. IMO, evaluation would be difficult. Regards, Doug McKean --- This message is from the IEEE EMC Society Product Safety Technical Committee emc-pstc discussion list.

Regulatory General Discussion : ouput of Compliance group
Hi there, A few days ago there was some very interesting discussions about the Compliance groups among companies. A lot of ideas came out very clearly like do a company needs a centralized regulatory group,how to fund it,how to explain our regulatory tasks (quite complex !),how to structure it. Some extracts of the previous discussions : RE: Quality Assurance and product approvals Unless the role of the Compliance group is very narrow and involves only support of one function (which I doubt), I feel that an independent Compliance group is essential. It should be functionally independent to any other group and reporting to the MD, or, reporting to the QA Director/Manager. This will mean you can realistically argue for adequate resouces to do a professional job for all those groups requiring your services. You will have somebody independent at the right level in the organisation supporting the Compliance group - essential when $$$ are involved. Let's face it, no RD Manager is going to approve headcount for a 2nd Compliance Engineer whose primary function is to do audits of the production facility to ensure critical components are controlled as they should, and, to support Sales/Marketing to achieve product approvals worldwide. (To bring this back to procedures/process) There also needs to be a 'document' which highlights: 1. What services the Compliance group offer; 2. The inputs (from other groups) required, and the outputs to be expected from each service; 3. Turnaround time (this will never be 100% accurate) With a document such as this published it raises awareness among each of the functions that the Compliance group do have organisation-wide responsibilites and are not at the beck and call of just one group. It forces them to plan for compliance also. It gives the Compliance group more credibility and visibility I still have some question about the output of such a group.Since we are only producing a so called Type Approval it appears for some people that we are measured with the number of Type Approval granted. But this measurement is un realistics since some approval require 6 months effort whereas others require only a few days ! In others words the measurement must include the difficulty and complexity of the approval. So has anybody some thoughts or argument on the measurement or evaluation of an Compliance Group ? many thanks for your help Pierre-Marie Andre Senior Approval Engineer ---BeginMessage--- I think the point raised by Gary re: where the Compliance group fits into the organisation structure is more important than procedures/process, although I disagree with him about where that should be. Let me explain. Having a good working relationship with Engineering is indeed critical, however from my experience I believe it essential for the Compliance group to be organisationally independent of Engineering. If not, then there are always conflicts of interest when allocating the (usually limited) Compliance resources between: Engineering - there are 4 design reviews this week and preparation required for a safety pre-compliance test next week; Operations - the agency auditor is visiting next week and there is some prep needed; Sales/Marketing - the Russian approval is expiring in 2 weeks and you need to re-apply, prepare doc pack, etc. How do you prioritise without getting slack from at least one functional head ?? Obviously if the Compliance group is actually a group and not just 1 or 2 persons, then with a good understanding of the roles amongst the group members the above does not really pose a problem. However I do NOT believe this is the case, particularly in the current climate of lay-offs, with us Compliance folk are becoming less essential. Unless the role of the Compliance group is very narrow and involves only support of one function (which I doubt), I feel that an independent Compliance group is essential. It should be functionally independent to any other group and reporting to the MD, or, reporting to the QA Director/Manager. This will mean you can realistically argue for adequate resouces to do a professional job for all those groups requiring your services.
