European e/E marking of ESA
European update on aftermarket Automotive Components: Electronic Sub Assemblies (ESA) that not affect the vehicle safety functionality, do not require (any longer) Annex IIIC Type Approval from a Technical Service. Amendment 2009/19/EC (2009/03/11) to directive 72/245/EEC (including previous Amendment 2004/104/EC and 2005/83/EC ), has abolished this requirement. Therefore 72/245/EC (e-mark) and ECE-R10 Rev. 3 (E-mark) now have the same approach for ESA. ECE-R10 Rev. 3 still requires to issue a manufacturer's DoC, whereas 72/245/EC requires compliancy with the EMC or R&TTE directive. For quality and commercial reasons, the e/E marking route can still be followed. (Unofficial consolidated version of 72/245/EC including amendments and corrections up to 2006/96/EC).

Wireless Microphones in Europe

logo
Wireless analog (and some digital) microphones in Europe can be marketed using the RF standards EN301357-1 & -2 or EN300422-1 & -2 i.c.w. EMC standard EN301489-1 & -9 and Safety standard EN60065/EN60950-1. Frequency bands opening opportunities are 29.7-47MHz (see ERC 70-03 annex 10a: 10mW), 174-216MHz (10d: 50mW), 470-862 (10e: 50mW), 863-865MHz (10c: 10mW), 1785-1800MHz (10f/g: 20 or 50mW). At present, the 863-865MHz band is generally available throughout the EU. Other frequencies however cannot be used, certainly not in all countries, due to the ongoing process of reassigning the TV bands. All bands require a personal end-user use-license, except 10a/c/g. 10a is also a band for Military use.
In addition to the standards mentioned, we refer to ETSI Technical Specification TS 102 192-1 &-2 for more generic background information of microphones in the 25MHz-3GHz range. For more specific information on professional microphones (PWMS) we advise to read ETSI Technical Report TR 102 546 V1.1.1.
We remark that for digital wireless microphones in the 1785-1800MHz band, the older ETSI standards EN 301 840-1 &-2 exists but these appear not to be used in favor of EN 300 422-1 &-2.
For more information and determination of the correct approach for your microphone, contact Teleconformity.

The current harmonised Standards (HS) are: EN50360 (Mobile phones, for head only, refering to EN50361 for SAR measurements), EN50371 (generic standard for LPD less than 20mW), EN50357 (RFID), EN50364 (EAS/RFID devices), EN50385 (Fixed equipment and Base stations), EN50401 (Telco networks), EN62311 (current generic standard) and EN62479 (following up EN50371).

Non harmonised Standards are EN50383 (Base stations), EN50392 (generic standard), EN62209-1 for SAR when EUT held to ear (replacement for EN50361), EN62209-2 for SAR when EUT held to body.
