Cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services -- Part 2: Electromagnetic compatibility for equipment

Standards of EN 50083 and EN 60728 series deal with cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services including equipment, systems and installations - for headend-reception, processing and distribution of television and sound signals and their associated data signals and - for processing, interfacing and transmitting all kinds of signals for interactive services using all applicable transmission media. All kinds of networks like - CATV-networks - MATV-networks and SMATV-networks - individual receiving networks and all kinds of equipment, systems and installations installed in such networks, are within this scope. The extent of these standardisation work is from the antennas, special signal source inputs to the headend or other interface points to the network up to the system outlet or the terminal input, where no system outlet exists. The standardisation of any user terminals (i.e. tuners, receivers, decoders, multimedia terminals etc.) as well as of any coaxial and optical cables and accessories therefor is excluded.

1 Scope
1.1 General
Standards of EN 50083 and EN 60728 series deal with cable networks for television signals, sound
signals and interactive services including equipment, systems and installations
− for headend-reception, processing and distribution of television and sound signals and their
associated data signals and
− for processing, interfacing and transmitting all kinds of signals for interactive services
using all applicable transmission media.
All kinds of networks like
− CATV-networks
− MATV-networks and SMATV-networks
− individual receiving networks
and all kinds of equipment, systems and installations installed in such networks, are within this scope.
The extent of this standardisation work is from the antennas, special signal source inputs to the headend
or other interface points to the network up to the terminal input.
The standardisation of any user terminals (i.e. tuners, receivers, decoders, multimedia terminals etc.) as
well as of any coaxial and optical cables and accessories thereof is excluded.
1.2 Specific scope of this part 2
This standard
• applies to the radiation characteristics and immunity to electromagnetic disturbance of EM-active
equipment (active and passive equipment) for the reception, processing and distribution of television,
sound and interactive multimedia signals as dealt with in the following parts of EN 50083 or EN 60728
series:
- EN 60728-3 "Active wideband equipment for coaxial cable networks"
- EN 50083-4 "Passive wideband equipment for coaxial cable networks"
- EN 50083-5 "Headend equipment"
- EN 60728-6 "Optical equipment"
• covers the following frequency ranges:
Disturbance voltage injected into the mains 9 kHz to 30 MHz
Radiation from active equipment  5 MHz to 25 GHz
Immunity of active equipment 150 kHz to 25 GHz
1)
Screening effectiveness of passive equipment 5 MHz to  3 GHz (25 GHz)
• specifies requirements for maximum allowed radiation, minimum immunity and minimum screening
effectiveness;
• describes test methods for conformance testing.
Due to the fact that cable networks, the former cabled distribution systems for television and sound
signals, are more and more used for interactive services, these networks may incorporate also equipment
which carry besides the cable network equipment ports also one or more telecom signal port(s). This
equipment shall be named as "multimedia network equipment".

1)
For "Screening effectiveness of passive equipment" no requirements apply at present for the frequency range 3 GHz to 25 GHz.
Methods of measurement and limits are investigated for inclusion in a future amendment or revised edition.

The EMC behaviour of cable network equipment, telecommunication network equipment and multimedia
network equipment may be described by the following port structure (Table 1):
Table 1 - Port structure of different network equipment
Port name Cable network Telecommunication Multimedia network
equipment network equipment equipment
Enclosure X X X
Earth X X X
AC/DC Power Supply X X X
Control (e.g. alarm) X X X
Antenna input port X X
RF network port X X
Telecom signal port X X

Table 1 shows that cable network equipment and telecommunication network equipment have four
common ports and one respectively two individual port each. Multimedia network equipment carry besides
the common ports an antenna input port and/or a RF network port as well as a telecom signal port.
The electromagnetic compatibility requirements for "telecommunication network equipment only" are
standardised in EN 300 386 (mainly) and in EN 301 489-4, those for "cable network equipment only" are
given in this EN 50083-2.
Equipment for multimedia networks of the above mentioned type has to work under the same EMC
conditions as equipment which is falling under the cable network and the telecommunication network
EMC-standards. Due to the fact, that this equipment has to work in close proximity, e.g. in the same
operating room, the EMC environmental conditions for all three types of equipment are the same.
This means that multimedia network equipment has to fulfil the EMC requirements of one of the above
mentioned standards and in addition the EMC requirements, laid down in the other EMC standard, for the
additional port, by which it is connected to the other network.
By this procedure it is ensured that multimedia network equipment fulfils the EMC conditions of one of
the above mentioned networks and will neither disturb the respective other system nor will be disturbed
by the respective other system via the connecting port.
Coaxial cables for cable networks do not fall under the scope of this standard. Reference is made to the
European Standard series EN 50117 "Coaxial cables used in cabled distribution networks".
This standard also covers active indoor antennas for which the requirements and the applicable methods
of measurement are limited to the radiation and the electrostatic discharge phenomena.
Standardisation in the field of "Electromagnetic compatibility" for any broadcast terminals (e.g. tuners,
receivers, decoders, etc.) is covered by the European Standards EN 55013 and EN 55020 and for
multimedia terminals by EN 55022 and EN 55024.
Requirements for the electromagnetic compatibility of receiver leads are laid down in EN 60966-2-4,
EN 60966-2-5 and EN 60966-2-6.
