M/313 - Telecom Networks
EMC for telecom networks
Mandate M/313 requires European Standardisation Organizations to develop standards addressing electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) for telecommunications networks. This mandate aims to ensure that telecom networks operate without causing or experiencing electromagnetic interference, thereby maintaining network reliability and performance. The standards developed under this mandate support the interoperability and safety of telecom infrastructure across the European Union. It provides a framework for harmonized technical specifications that mitigate EMC issues in telecom network equipment and installations, facilitating regulatory compliance and fostering a stable and efficient communications environment.
Purpose
This mandate focuses on establishing electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards specifically for telecommunications networks. The goal is to ensure that telecom equipment and networks operate effectively without causing or suffering from electromagnetic interference, thereby supporting reliable communication services across the European Union.
Standardisation request
The European Commission requests the development of harmonised standards that address EMC requirements for telecom network equipment and infrastructure. These standards should define testing methods, emission limits, and immunity criteria tailored to the unique characteristics of telecommunications systems.
Expected deliverables
- Harmonised EMC standards covering telecom network devices and related infrastructure.
- Guidelines for compliance assessment procedures.
- Technical specifications for both emission control and immunity to electromagnetic disturbances in telecom networks.
Context
Telecommunications networks form the backbone of modern communication across the EU, supporting a wide range of services from voice calls to internet connectivity. Ensuring electromagnetic compatibility within these networks is critical to maintaining service quality and interoperability of equipment from different manufacturers. This mandate supports the EU’s broader regulatory framework aimed at harmonising technical requirements to facilitate a single market for telecom products and services.
The standardisation work covers electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements for telecommunications networks, focusing on ensuring that telecom equipment and networks operate without electromagnetic interference that could affect performance and safety. This includes network infrastructure and related devices within the telecommunications sector.

Frequently Asked Questions
A European Standardization Mandate is a formal request from the European Commission to the European Standardization Organizations (CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI) to develop European standards (ENs) in support of EU legislation and policies. Mandates are issued under Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 and help ensure that products and services meet the essential requirements set out in EU directives and regulations.
M/313 is a European Standardization Mandate titled "EMC for telecom networks". EMC for telecom networks There are 0 standards developed under this mandate.
Standards developed in response to a mandate and cited in the Official Journal of the European Union become "harmonized standards". Products manufactured in compliance with harmonized standards benefit from a presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the corresponding EU directive or regulation, facilitating CE marking and market access across the European Economic Area.
