RED
Before wireless products can be legally sold in EU countries, they must be tested and approved according to the RED directive, and they must also have a CE-mark. Wireless remote control products must comply with the requirements of the RED directive RED 2014/53/EU.
More Introduction
1. Introduction to EU CE RED certification
Before wireless products can be legally sold in EU countries, they must be tested and approved according to the RED directive, and they must also have a CE-mark. Wireless remote control products must comply with the requirements of the RED directive RED 2014/53/EU.
a. RED is the abbreviation of Radio Equipment Directive, a directive for the compliance of wireless products.
b. The RED directive stipulates that wireless products need to meet the requirements of health, EMC, Radio, and LVD, of which LVD needs to meet regardless of the power supply method of the product.
c. Use the Radio non-coordinated standard to force the application for NB. Using the coordinated standard, you can choose whether to apply for NB, which depends on the specific needs of the customer.
The d.RED directive is also a declaration of conformity, which is the same as other directives.

3. CE RED certified products
1. Short-distance wireless remote control products (SRD) such as: remote control toy cars, remote control alarm systems, remote control doorbells, remote control switches, remote control mice, keyboards, etc.;
2. Professional radio remote control products (PMR) such as: professional wireless walkie-talkies, wireless microphones, etc.;
3. Wireless phone CTO, CT1;
4. ISDN (digital telephone products);
5. DECT (Enhanced Digital Cordless Telephone);
6. Mobile phone GSM, CDMA test;
7. Bluetooth products such as: Bluetooth headset;
8. Inductive data transmission equipment with operating frequency < 9 kHz;
9. Wireless broadcast receiver equipment.
4. CE RED certification test project
1. Electromagnetic compatibility test (EMC test);
2. Safety test LVD (in the new directive, this test is also required for RF products with battery input);
3. Conduct radio communication equipment test (RF test) according to European ETSI standard;
4. Notification of permitted spectrum in Europe;
5. CTR (TBR) test;
6. Electrical safety and health protection test (SAR assessment).
5. Information required for CE RED certification
1. Operational Description Line description (English);
2. Block Diagram block diagram (all crystal oscillators and crystal oscillator frequencies need to be drawn and consistent with the circuit diagram);
3. User Manual;
4. Schematics circuit diagram (must be consistent with the crystal oscillator frequency, number of crystal oscillators and crystal oscillator position in the block diagram)
5.Label label;
6. Technical parameters of wireless module (frequency range, number of channels, maximum transmit power, antenna gain, modulation method, etc.)
6. Prototype requirements for CE RED certification
1. One RF fixed frequency prototype, one common prototype
2. The fixed-frequency prototype is for multi-channel working products. If it is a single-channel prototype, please provide a continuous transmission prototype and a continuous reception prototype
7. CE RED certification process
After receiving the sample, prepare the report and issue the certificate. If you apply for NB, you need to sort out the information and report and submit it to NB institution. After approval, NB certificate will be issued.
