Hi
Aidan.
I
would guess that most ITU's are full of electronic equipment that should have
increased immunity to electrical noise due to the close proximity to other
equipment with which they must work.
It
is not necessarily certain that all AT equipment comes under the MDD, it
depends on whether the manufacturers declare it so.
I
wonder if all AT manufacturers have made an EMC declaration according to the
latest version of 60601-1-2.
This
would then give you some idea of the emissions characteristics of the device
in question. You could then make a judgement as to the likely occurrence of
interference.
Do
you have a particular device in mind?
Geoff.
