Overview
SIST EN 301 357-2:2001 is a harmonized European standard developed by the Slovenski inštitut za standardizacijo (SIST) and ETSI, focused on electromagnetic compatibility and radio spectrum management. It addresses analogue cordless wideband audio devices using integral antennas, specifically operating within the CEPT recommended 863 MHz to 865 MHz frequency range. This standard aligns the published EN 301 357 with the requirements of the R&TTE Directive, ensuring that radio equipment efficiently utilizes the allocated radio spectrum while minimizing harmful interference.
The standard applies to a wide range of analogue audio devices, including cordless headphones, in-ear monitors, loudspeakers, and other similar equipment. It forms part of a modular structure to cover all radio and telecommunications terminal equipment under the R&TTE Directive, streamlining the process of conformity assessment within Europe.
Key Topics
- Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): The standard sets essential EMC requirements ensuring audio devices do not emit or suffer from unwanted electromagnetic interference that could affect other equipment or communications.
- Spectrum Usage: Defines the operational frequency band (863 MHz to 865 MHz) and associated technical parameters for analogue audio devices, supporting efficient spectrum use and frequency reusability.
- Technical Specifications: Outlines transmitter and receiver performance requirements such as frequency error, carrier power, channel bandwidth, spurious emissions, and transmitter shutoff functionalities.
- Conformity Assessment: Specifies test methods and compliance procedures for manufacturers, referencing EN 301 357-1 for detailed measurement techniques and performance limits.
- Alignment with Directive: Implements the requirements of Article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive (1999/5/EC), facilitating mutual recognition of equipment conformity across Europe.
Applications
SIST EN 301 357-2:2001 is crucial for manufacturers, suppliers, and integrators of analogue audio and wideband equipment who intend to market their products in European Economic Area (EEA) member states. Typical applications include:
- Cordless Headphones and Loudspeakers: Utilized in wireless audio distribution systems for consumer electronics and commercial AV setups.
- In-Ear Monitor Systems: Widely employed in live music performances and broadcasting environments for wireless audio monitoring.
- In-Vehicle and Personal Cordless Systems: Supporting wireless audio transmission in automotive and portable personal entertainment devices.
- Professional Audio Equipment: Deployed in conference settings, public address systems, and other events requiring reliable wideband analogue audio transmission.
By ensuring compliance with SIST EN 301 357-2:2001, organizations demonstrate adherence to legal requirements for radio equipment and electromagnetic compatibility, minimizing the risk of market barriers or product recalls.
Related Standards
SIST EN 301 357-2:2001 is part of a broader framework of European and international standards relating to radio equipment and EMC. Relevant related standards include:
- EN 301 357-1: Covers technical characteristics and test methods for analogue cordless wideband audio devices in the same frequency range.
- R&TTE Directive (1999/5/EC): The core European legislation governing radio equipment and telecommunications terminal equipment.
- EMC Directive (89/336/EEC): Addresses general electromagnetic compatibility requirements across a wide range of electronic products.
- LV Directive (73/23/EEC): Specifies safety requirements for electrical equipment used within certain voltage limits.
- ETSI TR 028: Provides guidance on measuring uncertainties for mobile radio equipment characteristics.
For manufacturers and compliance professionals, understanding and applying these standards is essential to assure product quality, legal conformity, and successful market access in Europe.
