Dear Charles, Your Radio product has to meet the Japanese requirements laid down in the Japanese Ordonance. 802.11a Wireless tests according to Japanese radio regulation requirments "Ordonance 49.20 sub paragraph 3" 802.11b,g Wireless tests according to Japanese radio regulation requirments "Ordonance 49.20 sub paragraph 1" Covering channel 1~13 + 14.
As you already mentioned VCCI is voluntary but it is a Japanese custom to have it. As long as the level stays below 20mW no EM field exposure requirements have to be met. Please contact me of line in case you need more information about Japanese approvals. With Kind Regards, Henry Rutjes Telefication bv www.telefication.com From: Charles Blackham [mailto:charles.black...@sulisconsultants.com] Sent: dinsdag 27 september 2005 10:51 To: EMC-PSTC@listserv.ieee.org Subject: Japanese approvals requirements for fixed wireless equipment All Can anyone confirm/improve my understanding of what is required for a WiMax radio basestation and subscriber terminal? I understand the following are required: Radio - Telec Type Certification Safety - these products are not "Specific Electrical Appliances" nor "Electrical Appliances other than the Specific Electrical Appliances" as defined in Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Law ("DENAN") therefore no Japanese safety approval is required. The products will however be compliant with IEC60950. EMC - my client's major customer has not specifed VCCI approval - as its "voluntary" is it required by customs for example? EM field exposure - are there any Japanese requirements similar to EN 50385? regards Charlie - 2005 IEEE Symposium on Product Safety Engineering 3-4 October Schaumburg, IL http://www.ieee-pses.org/symposium This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
