European Union CTR 21 Notices
On July 20, 1998, the Council of the European Union approved
Common Technical Regulation (CTR) 21. This new type of
regulation establishes an EU-wide standard for connection of
telecommunications equipment such as your IBM modem to
public switched telephone networks (PSTNs). Traditional country-
specific modem approval requirements are being replaced by
CTR 21, so that once a modem is CTR 21 approved, it can be
used in any EU country without further testing or approval. The
regulation became effective on July 21, 1998, with notification of
the EU member countries.
How Do I Know If My Modem Is Approved?
CTR 21 approval is indicated on your IBM modem by the CE
Mark logo on the back of the card. Country-specific approval
numbers are no longer required. The CE Mark logo indicates that
the IBM product has been tested and found to be compliant with
CTR 21, and therefore can be used in any of the countries of the
EU. The table on the back of this insert indicates possible
limitations on the use of a CTR 21-approved modem in a
particular EU country.
These regulations do not affect GlobalACCESS features of the
IBM modem, including use on networks of countries outside the
European Union.
Addendum to the CE Mark Declaration of
Conformity
"Directive 98/13/EC relating to telecommunications terminal
equipment and satellite earth station equipment, including the
mutual recognition of their conformity."
