Introduction
Generality and historical background
Digital Fixed Radio Systems (DFRS), used in European countries, had been historically specified in a relatively large
number of specific European Norms produced by ETSI.
Those previous documents, already superseded by first version of this EN 302 217 series, contained both essential
requirements, cross-referenced in superseded harmonized EN 301 751 (see bibliography), and other requirements that,
even if not considered essential under the Directive 1999/5/EC [1] of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9
March 1999 on radio equipment and telecommunications terminal equipment and the mutual recognition of their
conformity (hereafter mentioned as the R&TTE Directive) [1], may be applicable.
Standards for point-to-point systems, including antennas, cover a very large range of traffic capacities, channel
separations, modulation formats and applications over a very wide range of frequency bands that are summarized in
table 1.
Table 1: Digital Fixed Radio Systems (DFRS) parameters
Parameter Range
Frequency bands from 1 GHz to 86 GHz
Traffic capacities from 9,6 kbit/s to 622 Mbit/s and to Gigabit/s and above in the highest bands
Channel separations from 25 kHz to 112 MHz and to Gigahertz and above in the highest bands
Modulation formats from 2 to 512 states (amplitude and/or phase and/or frequency modulated
states)
Typical applications POINT-TO-POINT (P-P) CONNECTIONS:
rural and urban low/medium/high capacity links for mobile infrastructure,
transport/trunk (long haul), FWA/BFWA backhaul, access, governmental
(non-military) links, private fixed networks, SAP/SAB P to P audio and video
links
STAND ALONE ANTENNAS:
for all of the above applications when integral antennas are not employed

The regulatory framework for placing radio systems on the market, established by the R&TTE Directive [1] also
requires the availability of Harmonized ENs covering the essential requirements under Article 3.2 of the R&TTE
Directive [1]. This was achieved in the first instance by the harmonized EN 301 751 (see bibliography), which had
cross-referenced to the relevant clauses of the ENs in table 2, dealing with those essential requirements. However, as a
long-term solution, the EN 302 217 series, including stand-alone harmonized ENs containing all necessary information
and avoiding as much as is practical cross-references, better suits regulatory and market requirements.
EN 302 217 series (see bibliography) meets this demand by providing a rational subdivision of requirements into
general, system dependent "not essential" and "essential" requirements from the perspective of the R&TTE
Directive [1].
Part 1 includes system-independent common characteristics; these requirements are not essential under Article 3.2 of
the R&TTE Directive [1].
EN 302 217-2-2, EN 302 217-3 and EN 302 217-4-2 (see bibliography) relevant to essential requirements under
Article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [1] replicate and rationalized, within the scope and applicability of the R&TTE
Directive [1], the requirements set out in the superseded harmonized EN 301 751 (see bibliography). Additional system
has been added for new available FS bands and for completing market available options.
EN 302 217 series introduced, for systems (equipment and antennas) previously covered by EN 301 751 (see
bibliography), only technically equivalent or less stringent requirements (see note). Care has been taken so that such
variations will not affect any frequency planning assumption for already deployed networks. Therefore, from a strictly
technical point of view, it is expected that equipment already conforming to EN 301 751 (see bibliography), would not
need a new test report for re-assessment of essential requirements according to EN 302 217 series. Legal implications
with respect to declaration of conformity and equipment labelling are outside the scope of the present document.

NOTE: The only exception is with respect to class 5A equipment for system D.7 (see annex D of
EN 302 217-2-2) and for systems E.1, E.2 and E.3 (see annex E of EN 302 217-2-2) for which a previous
design objective had here been transformed into a more stringent RSL versus BER. In this case a
supplementary test report might be required (e.g. in case the technical construction file, made for
declaration of conformity to EN 301 751 (see bibliography), does not give evidence of enough margin to
fulfil the requirements of the present document).
In the present document, the equipment subject of the former standards is grouped into families of either similar
frequency bands or applications. Five families are identified for frequency bands where frequency co-ordination is
applied, corresponding, in both EN 302 217-2-1 and EN 302 217-2-2 (see bibliography), to annexes referenced from A
to E and one family associated with applications of packet data and combination of other signals mapped into
proprietary transport modules, detailed in annex F.
• A frequency bands from 1,4 GHz to 2,7 GHz;
• B frequency bands from 3 GHz to 11 GHz (channel separation up to around 30 MHz);
• C frequency bands from 3 GHz to 11 GHz (channel separation 40 MHz);
• D frequency bands 13 GHz, 15 GHz and 18 GHz;
• E frequency bands from 23 GHz to 55 GHz;
• F transmission of Packet Data and combination of other signals.
In the same way EN 302 217-3 (see bibliography) three families are identified for frequency bands where
conventional frequency co-ordination is not applied, corresponding to annexes referenced from UA to UC.
• UA frequency band from 57 GHz to 59 GHz;
• UB frequency band from 64 GHz to 66 GHz;
• UC frequency bands from 71 GHz to 76 GHz and 81 GHz to 86 GHz.
Cross references to previously relevant ENs and TSs
The EN 302 217 series replaced and superseded, after a suitable transition period, the standards that are listed in table 2.
Table 2 provides also an overview of the correspondence between equipment considered in those ENs and part/annexes
in the present document.
Requirements in the previous ENs have been rationalized and redistributed in the present document according to a logic
subdivision dictated by the coming into force of the R&TTE Directive [1]:
• requirements considered essential under Article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [1] have been placed in the
relevant harmonized ENs EN 302 217-2-2, EN 302 217-3 and EN 302 217-4-2 (see bibliography);
• other requirements that, even if not considered essential under the R&TTE Directive [1], may be applicable,
on a voluntary basis, as a common basis for maintaining performance and operability of DFRS in typical
deployment, have been placed in the relevant ENs, EN 302 217-1, EN 302 217-2-1 and EN 302 217-4-1 (see
bibliography).

User's guide
With reference to the former standards listed in table 2, the EN 302 217 series provides the same set of characteristics
and requirements, with the same values. However, this information is presented differently, spread across six parts
corresponding to three categories.
The first category (the present document) corresponds to characteristics which are either common to the whole family
of equipment or are provided in a comprehensive list, i.e. performance and availability, environmental profiles, power
supply, system block diagram, TMN interface, mechanical characteristics and baseband interfaces and parameters. The
symbols and abbreviations, which apply to the EN 302 217 series, are listed in the present document. The present
document defines those requirements and characteristics set out in the other parts of this EN 302 217 series.
The second category (EN 302 217-2-1 and EN 302 217-4-1 in the bibliography) corresponds to characteristics and
requirements, which are not relevant to Article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [1]. Nevertheless, compliance to all or some
of these requirements is mandatory in order to claim compliance with the relevant part of the EN 302 217 series.
Requirements are either "main requirements" or "complementary requirements". Even though compliance to these parts
is not mandatory for the R&TTE Directive [1] conformity, compliance may be claimed to all or some requirements of
these parts.
EN 302 217-2-1 and EN 302 217-4-1 (see bibliography) provide a description of the main and complementary
requirements, for equipment operating in co-ordinated frequency bands and for antennas.
Main requirements are requirements that are also related to the "essential requirements" under Article 3.2 of the R&TTE
Directive [1] and are further detailed in EN 302 217-2-2 and EN 302 217-4-2 (see bibliography) of this EN 302 217
series; for equipment operating in co-ordinated frequency bands (EN 302 217-2-2) and for antennas (EN 302 217-4-2),
respectively.
Complementary requirements are requirements that are not related to essential requirements under Article 3.2 of the
R&TTE Directive [1]. Nevertheless they are considered, having been commonly agreed for proper system operation and
deployment when specific deployment conditions or compatibility requirements are present. Compliance to all or some
of these requirements is made on a voluntary basis.
The limiting values for main and complementary requirements that are not common to all of the equipment covered by
one part, but specific to one frequency range, one hierarchy (PDH or SDH), one capac
