Frequently asked questions
What products can fall under the Radio Equipment Directive?
Products that intentionally emit or receive radio waves for communication or radiodetermination can fall within Directive 2014/53/EU, depending on the exact design and intended use.
Does RED include safety and electromagnetic compatibility requirements?
Yes. The essential requirements include protection of health and safety and an adequate level of electromagnetic compatibility, as well as efficient use of radio spectrum.
