Introduction
This EMC standard specifies limits and methods of measurement for disturbance emissions
emanating from wire-line telecommunication networks. These limits and methods of
measurement address disturbance emissions occurring in and along wire-line
telecommunication networks under normal operation conditions.
1 Scope and Object
This EMC standard specifies limits and methods of measurement for disturbance emissions
emanating from wire-line telecommunication networks as defined in Clause 3, including their
in-house extensions, installed and operated as intended.
This standard covers the frequency range 9 kHz to 400 GHz. To date, it specifies limits and
methods of measurement for conducted and radiated disturbances from telecommunication
networks in the frequency range 150 kHz to 1 GHz. The assessment of a network needs to be
performed only in the frequency ranges where limits are defined.
The limits set in this standard do not apply to wanted emissions from radio transmitters.
The emission requirements have been selected so as to ensure that disturbances generated
by a network, or parts thereof, operating normally do not exceed a level that could prevent
other apparatus from operating as intended. Fault conditions of the network are not taken into
account. Not all disturbance phenomena have been included for testing purposes in this
standard but only those considered as relevant for the network covered by this standard.
These test requirements represent essential electromagnetic compatibility emission
requirements.
NOTE  In special cases, situations will arise where the levels specified in this standard will not offer adequate
protection; for example where a sensitive receiver is used in close proximity to a network. In these instances,
special mitigation measures may have to be employed.

3.1 Definitions
For the purpose of this standard the following definitions apply.
disturbance field strength
field strength produced at a given location by an electromagnetic disturbance, measured
under specified conditions
[(IEC – IEV 161-04-02]
electromagnetic disturbance
any electromagnetic phenomenon that may degrade the performance of a device, equipment
or system, or adversely affect living or inert matter
[IEC – IEV 161-01-05]
emission
The phenomenon by which electromagnetic energy emanates from a source
[IEC – IEV 161-01-08]
radio (frequency) disturbance
electromagnetic disturbance having components within the radio frequency range
[IEC – IEV 161-01-13]
measurement distance
the measurement distance is taken as a straight line rectangular from the telecommunication
cable tract (or its projection to the floor level), from the boundary of the premises, office, or
flat, or from the exterior wall of the building hosting the network concerned, to the measuring
antenna reference point. This reference point can be:
- the centre of the coil of a loop antenna used for measurements of the magnetic
component of electromagnetic fields; or
- the balun, in case of a broadband dipole, or the reference point of a logarithmic-
periodical or horn antenna referred to for calibration purposes.
wire-line telecommunication network
a combination of equipment and passive devices (network cables, connectors) interconnected
together (see Figure 1) to constitute the wire-line part of an electronic communications
network

4 Assessment procedure for telecommunication networks
The whole or part of the telecommunication network is deemed to be compliant to the present
standard:
• If all equipment directly connected to the network or part thereof meets the emission
requirements defined in the applicable EMC product standard (see Annex A) taking
the properties of the network cable type into account;
or
• If the network meets the requirements specified in 4.1.

4.1 Network requirements
4.1.1 Applicability
Emission measurements shall either be performed on real operating networks installed in the
field or on a representative reference network. The assessment can be made either on a
complete network or over a given part of it.
Measurements are not required within equipment enclosures, in telecommunication centres or
in industrial areas.
4.1.2 Limits below 30 MHz
The telecommunication network shall meet the limits specified in Table 1 according to the
measurement method specified in 5.2 and using the measurement procedure defined in
Clause 7.

The telecommunication network shall meet the radiated limits specified in Table 2 according
to the measurement method specified in 5.3. The normalisation to the reference measurement
distance shall be as defined in 6.1.2. The measurement procedure defined in Clause 7 shall

5 Disturbance emission measurement methods
5.1 General arrangements
In order to get the highest readings of disturbances it shall be ensured that the part of the
telecommunication network being assessed operates at maximum wanted signal levels typical
for this site and in the mode that results in maximum RF disturbance field strength levels
consistent with normal operation. If the system is interactive, measurements shall also be
performed in the presence of both the upstream and downstream signals.
5.2 Conducted measurements below 30 MHz
For conducted disturbance emission measurements in the frequency range 150 kHz to
30 MHz, a suitable current probe in accordance with EN 55016-1 Subclause 5.2.1 is required.
A suitable current probe shall be clamped at the cable at a mechanically accessible point.
