Breakout Panel Revision 2 Preface MN/UB530.IOM
In accordance with the Telecommunications Terminal Equipment Directive 91/263/EEC, this equipment should not be directly connected to the Public Telecommunications Network.

EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility)

In accordance with European Directive 89/336/EEC, the breakout panel has been shown, by independent testing, to comply with the following standards:
Emissions: EN 55022 Class B - Limits and methods of measurement of radio
interference characteristics of Information Technology Equipment.
(Also tested to FCC Part 15 Class B)
Immunity: EN 50082 Part 1 - Generic immunity standard, Part 1: Domestic,
commercial and light industrial environment.
Additionally, the breakout panel has been shown to comply with the following standards:
EN 61000-3-2 Harmonic Currents Emission EN 61000-3-3 Voltage Fluctuations and Flicker EN 61000-4-2 ESD Immunity EN 61000-4-4 EFT Burst Immunity EN 61000-4-5 Surge Immunity EN 61000-4-6 RF Conducted Immunity EN 61000-4-8 Power frequency Magnetic Field Immunity EN 61000-4-9 Pulse Magnetic Field Immunity EN 61000-4-11 Voltage Dips, Interruptions, and Variations Immunity EN 61000-4-13 Immunity to Harmonics
In order that the breakout panel continues to comply with these standards, observe the following instructions:
IMPORTANT
Connections to the transmit and receive IF ports (Type N or Type F connectors) should be made using a good quality coaxial cable - for example 50 or 75 Ω.
All 'D' type connectors attached to the rear panel must have back-shells that provide continuous metallic shielding. Cable with a continuous outer shield (either foil or braid, or both) must be used, and the shield must be bonded to the backshell.
The equipment must be operated with its cover on at all times. If it becomes necessary to remove the cover, the user should ensure that the cover is correctly re-fitted before normal operation commences.
