PD CLC/TR 50083 is a series on cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services. Cable networks are networking hardware used to connect one network device to other network devices or to connect two or more computers to share printers, scanners etc. PD CLC/TR 50083-2-1 describes EMC measurements using specific measuring apparatus or alternative methods of measurement (e.g., spectrum analyser) and applies to the radiation characteristics 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:
and covers the following frequency ranges:
Note: The standardization of any user terminals (i.e. tuners, receivers, decoders, multimedia terminals etc.) as well as of any coaxial, balanced and optical cables and accessories thereof is excluded.
PD CLC/TR 50083-2-1 on cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services are useful for:
There are several technologies used for network connections. PD CLC/TR 50083-2-1 deals with cable networks including equipment and associated methods of measurement for headend reception, processing and distribution of television and sound signals and for processing, interfacing, and transmitting all kinds of data signals for interactive services using all applicable transmission media. These signals are typically transmitted in networks by frequency-multiplexing techniques. PD CLC/TR 50083-2-1 includes for instance regional and local broadband cable networks, extended satellite and terrestrial television distribution systems and individual satellite, terrestrial television receiving systems, and all kinds of equipment, systems and installations used in such cable networks, distribution and receiving systems.
The extent of PD CLC/TR 50083-2-1 is from the antennas and/or special signal source inputs to the headend or other interface points to the network up to the terminal input of the customer premises equipment. PD CLC/TR 50083-2-1 will consider coexistence with users of the RF spectrum in wired and wireless transmission systems. Using PD CLC/TR 50083-2-1 you can describe EMC measurements using specific measuring apparatus or alternative methods of measurement (e.g., spectrum analyser) and applies to the radiation characteristics of EM active equipment (active and passive equipment).
