EVS-EN 302 217-1 V3.1.1:2017

The present document applies to Digital Fixed Radio Systems (DFRS) in point-to-point operation with integral and
external antennas in the frequency range of 1 GHz to 86 GHz corresponding to the appropriate frequency bands
1,4 GHz to 86 GHz as described in ETSI EN 302 217-2 [18], annex B to annex J.
The present document summarizes:
• all characteristics, principles and, of utmost importance, terms and definitions that are common to all
P-P equipment and antennas and its consultation is necessary when using all other parts of ETSI EN 302 217
series;
• all system-dependent requirements for Point-to-Point (P-P) equipment in applications deployed in bands where
frequency co-ordination is generally applied. These requirements are introduced in two different clauses
sub-sets:
- Main requirements are requirements that are also related to the "essential requirements" under
article 3.2 of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1] and further detailed in the Harmonised Standard ETSI
EN 302 217-2 [18].
- Complementary requirements are requirements that are not related to essential requirements under
article 3.2 of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1]. Nevertheless they have been commonly agreed for proper
system operation and deployment when specific deployment conditions or compatibility requirements are
present. Compliance to all or some of these requirements is left to manufacturer decision.
Technical background for most of the parameters and requirements referred to in this multi-part deliverable may be
found in ETSI TR 101 036-1 [i.16].
Health and safety requirements, relevant to article 3.1a of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1] are not considered in any part of
this ETSI EN 302 217 series. CENELEC is responsible for the relevant standards.
EMC conditions and requirements, relevant to article 3.1b of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1] and any other essential
requirement relevant to article 3.3 of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1] are not in the scope of any part of this ETSI
EN 302 217 series. EMC requirements may be found in ETSI EN 301 489-1 [i.11] and ETSI EN 301 489-4 [i.12].
