Eu Rohs; Eu Reach - Harmonic Spectrum MediaPort 7000 Component Replacement Manual

customers with safe and environmentally friendly products that are compliant with all relevant regulations,
customer specifications, and environmental legislation, including the directives described below.

EU RoHS

In July 2006, the European Union's (EU) Directive (2002/95/EC) on the Restriction of the use of certain
Hazardous Substances (RoHS) in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE) went into effect, and in July,
2011, the European Union's RoHS Recast Directive (2011/65/EU) also known as RoHS II entered into
force.
Harmonic understands the environmental risks associated with the substances covered by the RoHS
Directive and has committed to eliminating or reducing the use of these, as well as other environmentally
sensitive substances in our products. Harmonic also continues to comply with the requirements under
RoHS II.
For more information, please visit EU RoHS directive page at official EU website.

Restricted substance statement
Harmonic products contain less than the permitted limits for the six restricted substances except where
exemptions published in the RoHS2 Directive are applicable. This statement is based on vendor-supplied
analysis or material certifications, and/or lab test results of the component raw materials used in the
manufacture of Harmonic products.
Table B-2: Restricted substances
Restricted substance
Cadmium (Cd)
Lead (Pb)
Chromium (VI) (Cr (VI))
Mercury (Hg)
Polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs)
Polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE)

EU REACH

REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and restriction of Chemicals) (EC 1907/2006) is a
European Union's regulation on chemicals and their safe use which came into force in June, 2007.
Harmonic supports the basic aim of REACH in improving the protection of human health and environment
through the better and earlier identification of intrinsic properties of chemical substances. Harmonic
products are considered "articles" under REACH; therefore, we are required to provide recipients of our
products with information on Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC) present in concentration above
0.1% (w/w).
Substances in our products are not intended to be released under normal or reasonably foreseeable
conditions of use; therefore, the registration requirement in REACH Article 7(1) does not apply to our
products.
