EN 50083-2:2006

1.1General 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. 1.2Specific 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"
