scope:

The present document, together with EN 301 489-1 [1], covers the assessment of wireless microphones and similar RF audio link equipment, intended for the transmission of music and speech, and associated ancillary equipment, in respect of ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC).

Technical specifications related to the antenna port and emissions from the enclosure port of wireless microphones and similar RF audio link equipment are not included in the present document. Such technical specifications are found in the relevant product standards for the effective use of the radio spectrum.

The present document specifies the applicable EMC tests, the test methods, the limits and the performance criteria for wireless microphones, similar RF audio link equipment, wideband cordless audio devices and associated ancillary equipment.

Examples of equipment types covered by the present document are given in annex A.

Other types of transmitters or receivers, which are intended for combined use, with either wireless radio microphones, RF audio link equipment or wideband cordless audio devices shall be tested to their appropriate EMC standard.

In case of differences (for instance concerning special conditions, definitions, abbreviations) between the present document and EN 301 489-1 [1], the provisions of the present document take precedence.

The environmental classification and the emission and immunity requirements used in the present document are as stated in EN 301 489-1 [1], except for any special conditions included in the present document.
