Notice: Compliance with this harmonised standard shall not confer a presumption of conformity with the essential requirement set out in Article 3(2) of Directive 2014/53/EU if any of the following is applied:
— in the ninth paragraph of clause 6.2.5 of that standard, the sentence ‘For the emission measurements, a combination of bicones and log periodic dipole array antennas (commonly termed “log periodics”) could also be used to cover the entire 30 MHz to 1000 MHz band’;
— the tenth paragraph of clause 6.2.5 of that standard;
— the eleventh paragraph of clause 6.2.5 of that standard.
EN 302 208 V3.3.1
Radio Frequency Identification Equipment operating in the band 865 MHz to 868 MHz with power levels up to 2 W and in the band 915 MHz to 921 MHz with power levels up to 4 W; Harmonised Standard for access to radio spectrum
Notice: For the purposes of presumption of conformity with the essential requirement set out in Article 3(2) of Directive 2014/53/EU, in Table 2 of this harmonised standard, the limit ‘692 MHz’ is replaced by the following: ‘694 MHz’.
EN 302 609 V2.2.1
Short Range Devices (SRD); Radio equipment for Euroloop communication systems; Harmonised Standard for access to radio spectrum
Notice: For the purposes of presumption of conformity with the essential requirement set out in Article 3(2) of Directive 2014/53/EU:
— in the second row of Table 3 of this harmonised standard, the limit ‘29 090 MHz’ shall be read as ‘27 090 MHz’;
— in the third row of Table 3 of this harmonised standard, the limit ‘29 100 MHz’, shall be read as ‘27 100 MHz’.
EN 303 258 V1.1.1
Wireless Industrial Applications (WIA); Equipment operating in the 5 725 MHz to 5 875 MHz frequency range with power levels ranging up to 400 mW; Harmonised Standard for access to radio spectrum
Notice: Compliance with this harmonised standard shall not confer a presumption of conformity with the essential requirement set out in Article 3(2) of Directive 2014/53/EU, in case that the appropriate test methods are not carried out in order to demonstrate compliance with clauses 4.2.8.2, 4.2.9.3 and 4.2.10.3 of this harmonised standard.
