EUROPEAN NETWORK COMP A TIBILITY DECLARATION

This product is designed to interwork with the Public Switched Telecommunication Networks in UK, Ireland, Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark , Finland, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Belgium, France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Iceland, Greece, Italy, Norway and Austria.

The equipment may have interworking difficulties in PSTN networks in other countries. Please contact your equipment supplier if it is desired to use the equipment on another network.

Electrical Safety

Before installing this equipment you must ensure that the power drawn by this card, together with the host and any auxiliary cards drawing power from the host, is within the rating of the host power supply.

The equipment must be installed such that with the exception of the connections to the host, clearance and creepage distances shown in the table below are maintained between the card and any other assemblies that use or generate a voltage shown in the table.

The larger distance shown in brackets applies where the local environment within the host is subject to conductive pollution or dry non-conductive pollution which could become conductive due to condensation. Failure to maintain these minimum distances

Clearance Creepage (mm)

2.0 2.4 (3.8) Up to 50 Vrms or Vdc

2.6 3.0 (4.8) Up to125 Vrms or Vd c

4.0 5.0 (8.0) Up to 250 Vrms or Vdc

4.0 6.4 (10.0) Up to 300 Vrms or Vdc

would invalidate the approval. ‘The analogue telecommunications interface is intended to be connected to telecommunication network

voltage (TNV) circuits which may carry dangerous voltages. The telephone cord must remain disconnected from the telecommunications system until the card has been installed within a host which provides the necessary protection of the operator.

If it is subsequently desired to open the host equipment for any reason, the telephone cord must be disconnected prior to effecting access to any internal parts which may carry telecommunication network voltages.’

Safety level of the various connectors:

• Telephone Line Connector = TNV3

• PCI connector = SELV These indications are classified as per safety

standards EN60950/A4:

• TNV3: Telecommunications Network Voltage

• SELV: Safety Extra Low Voltage

Voltage used or Generated by Host

or Other Cards

Except for the edge connector which plugs into the host’s expansion slot, clearance distance (Xmm) and creepage distance (Ymm) as given in the above table, must be maintained between the communication card and any other assemblies which use or generate a hazardous voltage.
