RE: Homologations: Hong Kong / China Central Office Telecom Equip ment
Contact Hong Kong Telecom's CPE Evaluation group. They have the 'specification checklist' required for you to get approval. You fill out the checklist with all supporting documentation (any test reports that you have i.e. that you used to get approval in the UK for instance) and submit. After they review the checklist, HKT may/may not ask for a sample. (That's the way it was when I did telecom equipment 2 years ago) Unfortunately I do not have the contact name/number handy.

RE: Homologations: Hong Kong / China Central Office Telecom Equip ment
Hello Jeff, I've attached some info that I received from UL a few weeks ago.. It addresses both, safety EMC issues for China. Give it a read and discuss any further with Sam at UL. Check out this tradeport webpage. It gives some info relating to China's MII telecom licensing system. http://www.tradeport.org/ts/countries/china/mrr/mark0207.html Tradeports' Starting page for Country specific info can be found at: http://www.tradeport.org/ts/countries/ Also, attached (below) is a hypertext copy of Detailed Rules and Procedures for the Implementation of the Safety License System of Import Commodities published by the State Administration of Import and Export Commodity Inspection of the People's Republic of China. (..Whew, what a mouthful!).. It gives an overview of every step in the process from submitting the application, type testing to factory follow-up procedures. It's a good guideline. http://www.ccibkor.com/ccib/j_ccibing.htm I hope some of this helps you..

RE: Homologations: Hong Kong / China Central Office Telecom Equip ment
George did a good job explaining, but I am currently going through the CCIB process myself. The thing I have found most inconvenient is that they now require the EMC testing be done in country. They will use your current reports only for reference. I know that some labs are trying to bring testing outside of the PRC but with little success.

Here are some things I think I know regarding generic ITE. I am unaware of any safety/EMC certification requirements in Hong Kong. Note that Hong Kong is now officially part of the People's Republic of China, but operates a bit apart from mainland PRC. The IEC listed CB reviewing body for the PRC is the CCEE, which has the authority to issue the Great Wall mark based on compliance to GB4943-1995 (IEC 60950 in Chinese). However, the CCEE mark is primarily required for electrical equipment made in China for sale in China, i.e. an internal safety mark.. All imported ITE must obtain the CCIB certification and mark to GB4943-1995 and GB9254-1998 (EMC, CISPR 22). A CB Test Report is accepted and preferred, but China labs perform the EMC tests for CCIB. A key requirement is an initial factory inspection by SAIQ/CCIB personnel. Depending on the location of your factory, this can be a schedule problem as they cannot afford the time to fly to the U.S. for a single inspection. Our factory was one of seven being inspected in 1998. There are some other peripheral requirements for consumer ITE, e.g. user manual in simplified Chinese. The PRC does not wish to be westernized, and prefers that packaging, documentation, etc. be in Chinese. I hope this helps.
