RoHS Compliance
This unit satisfies (with exemptions) the requirements specified in the European Union Directive on the
Restriction of Hazardous Substances, Directive 2002/95/EC (EU RoHS).
EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility)
In accordance with European Directive 2004/108/EEC, the MDX420 has been shown, by
independent testing, to comply with the following standards:
Emissions: EN 55022 Class B - Limits and methods of measurement of radio interference
characteristics of Information Technology Equipment.
(Also tested to FCC Part 15 Class B.)
Immunity: EN 55024 – Information Technology Equipment: Immunity Characteristics,
Limits, and Methods of Measurement.
Additionally, the MDX420 has been shown to comply with the following standards:
EN 61000-3-2 – Harmonic Currents Emission;
EN 61000-3-3 – voltage Fluctuations and Flicker.
 Connections to the transmit and receive IF ports should be made using a good quality
coaxial cable. For example, RG58 or RG59 for BNC IF connectors and LMR200,
LMR240 or equivalent for the L-band SMA IF ports.
 All 'D' type connectors attached to the rear panel must have back-shells that provide
continuous metallic shielding. Cable with a continuous outer shield (either foil or braid, or
both) must be used, and the shield must be bonded to the back-shell.
 The equipment must be operated with its cover on at all times. If it becomes necessary to
remove the cover, the user should ensure that the cover is correctly re-fitted before
normal operation commences.
