Overview

SIST EN 301 357-2 V1.4.1:2009 is a harmonized standard that specifies the minimum performance requirements and measurement methods for cordless audio devices operating within the radio frequency range of 25 MHz to 2 000 MHz. Developed by the Slovenski inštitut za standardizacijo (SIST), this standard aligns with the essential requirements of Article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive (Directive 1999/5/EC), targeting electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and efficient use of the radio spectrum to prevent harmful interference.

Cordless audio equipment covered by the standard includes consumer and professional devices, such as:

• Cordless headphones and loudspeakers
• Radio microphones (863-865 MHz)
• In-ear monitoring equipment
• In-vehicle and personal cordless devices
• Broadband multi-channel audio systems
• Low power devices in the 87.5 MHz to 108 MHz broadcasting band (Band II LPD)
• Other equipment operating within relevant frequency bands under CEPT/ERC/REC 70-03 or national regulations

Key Topics

1. Electromagnetic Compatibility and Radio Spectrum Use

• Ensures devices are constructed to operate within allocated frequency bands and orbital resources
• Mandates avoidance of harmful interference with other radio services

2. Performance Requirements

• Specifies minimum performance criteria for transmitter and receiver modules
• Focuses on parameters such as effective radiated power, occupied bandwidth, frequency error, spurious emissions, and transmitter shutoff time

3. Measurement and Test Methods

• Establishes standardized procedures to assess compliance with technical requirements
• Details measurement uncertainties and environmental conditions for testing
• Differentiates requirements and test methods for specific device classes (e.g., Band II LPD, radio microphones)

4. Scope and Applicability

• Applicable to a broad spectrum of consumer and professional cordless audio devices intended for use with integral antennas
• Recognizes that frequency allocations and regulatory requirements may vary between countries

Applications

The practical value of SIST EN 301 357-2 V1.4.1:2009 lies in ensuring that cordless audio products meet stringent EMC and radio spectrum usage criteria, promoting device compatibility and reducing the risk of radio interference across a variety of environments:

• Consumer Electronics: Enables safe deployment of wireless headphones, loudspeakers, and radio microphones with assured spectrum efficiency and interference mitigation.
• Professional Audio: Supports reliable operation in live event production, broadcast, and stage settings, including in-ear monitoring and multichannel audio systems, especially in dedicated frequency bands such as 863-865 MHz.
• Automotive and Personal Devices: Ensures cordless audio systems in vehicles and portable personal devices meet regulatory compliance, facilitating cross-border use in the European market.
• Broadcast and Low Power Devices: Sets clear performance and emission benchmarks for LPDs in the FM broadcasting band, crucial for public and commercial radio-related applications.

Related Standards

SIST EN 301 357-2 V1.4.1:2009 references and closely aligns with several related standards and documents:

• SIST EN 301 357-1: Technical characteristics and test methods for cordless audio devices
• ETSI TR 100 028: Addresses uncertainties in the measurement of mobile radio equipment characteristics
• CEPT/ERC/REC 70-03: European recommendations for the use of short-range devices (SRD)
• Directive 1999/5/EC (R&TTE Directive): Establishes overall requirements for radio and telecommunications terminal equipment
• Additional National and European Standards: Specific frequency allocations and compliance conditions as dictated by national or CEPT guidelines

By adhering to SIST EN 301 357-2 V1.4.1:2009, manufacturers and integrators ensure that cordless audio equipment is compliant, interoperable, and market-ready across the European Economic Area, meeting both regulatory expectations and user needs in terms of performance and electromagnetic compatibility.

Intellectual Property Rights
IPRs essential or potentially essential to the present document may have been declared to ETSI. The information
pertaining to these essential IPRs, if any, is publicly available for ETSI members and non-members, and can be found
in ETSI SR 000 314: "Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs); Essential, or potentially Essential, IPRs notified to ETSI in
respect of ETSI standards", which is available from the ETSI Secretariat. Latest updates are available on the ETSI Web
server (http://webapp.etsi.org/IPR/home.asp).
Pursuant to the ETSI IPR Policy, no investigation, including IPR searches, has been carried out by ETSI. No guarantee

server) which are, or may be, or may become, essential to the present document.
Foreword
This Harmonized European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee
Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM).
The present document has been produced by ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission issued
under Council Directive 98/34/EC (as amended) [i.2] laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the
field of technical standards and regulations.
The present document is intended to become a Harmonized Standard, the reference of which will be published in the
Official Journal of the European Communities referencing the Directive 1999/5/EC 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 ("the R&TTE Directive") [i.1].
Technical specifications relevant to Directive 1999/5/EC [i.1] are given in annex A.
The present document is part 2 of a multi-part deliverable covering cordless audio devices in the range 25 MHz to
2 000 MHz, as identified below:
Part 1: "Technical characteristics and test methods";
Part 2: "Harmonized EN covering essential requirements of article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive".

National transposition dates
Date of adoption of this EN: 10 November 2008
Date of latest announcement of this EN (doa): 28 February 2009
Date of latest publication of new National Standard
or endorsement of this EN (dop/e): 31 August 2009
Date of withdrawal of any conflicting National Standard (dow): 31 August 2010

Introduction
The present document is part of a set of standards developed by ETSI and is designed to fit in a modular structure to
cover all radio and telecommunications terminal equipment within the scope of the R&TTE Directive [i.1]. The
modular structure is shown in EG 201 399 [i.3].

1 Scope
The present document is intended to specify the minimum performance and the methods of measurement of cordless
audio equipment in the range 25 MHz to 2 000 MHz, including:
• cordless headphones;
• cordless loudspeakers;
• consumer radio microphones in the range 863 MHz to 865 MHz;
• in-ear monitoring equipment using either 300 kHz bandwidth analogue modulation or 300 kHz, 600 kHz,
1 200 kHz digital FDMA modulation in the range 863 MHz to 865 MHz;
• in-vehicle cordless;
• personal cordless;
• broadband multi channel audio systems;
• Band II LPD. (low power devices) in the 87,5 MHz to 108 MHz range (Broadcasting Band II) using up to
200 kHz bandwidth and analogue modulation.
• and other devices and frequency bands defined within CEPT/ERC/REC 70-03 [i.4] or European or National
regulation.
The frequency bands for this equipment may differ from country to country as specified in their national regulations.
All equipment is intended to be used with integral antennas.
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.1] (R&TTE Directive), article 3.2,
which states that "…. radio equipment shall be so constructed that it effectively uses the spectrum allocated to
terrestrial/space radio communications and orbital resources so as to avoid harmful interference".
In addition to the present document, other ENs that specify technical requirements in respect of essential requirements
under other parts of Article 3 of the R&TTE Directive may apply to equipment within the scope of the present
document.
NOTE 1: A list of such ENs is included on the web site http://www.newapproach.org.
NOTE 2: The term cordless is also used to describe infra red and other non-RF "wireless" links, but in the context
of the present document it is restricted to RF operating systems only.
2 References
References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number) or
non-specific.
• For a specific reference, subsequent revisions do not apply.
• Non-specific reference may be made only to a complete document or a part thereof and only in the following
cases:
- if it is accepted that it will be possible to use all future changes of the referenced document for the
purposes of the referring document;
- for informative references.
