Directives and Compliances
This section provides information concerning Imagine Communications compliance with EU
Directive 2002/95/EC and EU Directive 2002/96/EC.
Restriction on Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive
2002/95/EC
Hazardous Substances (RoHS)—sets limits on the use of certain substances found in electrical
and electronic equipment. The intent of this legislation is to reduce the amount of hazardous
chemicals that may leach out of landfill sites or otherwise contaminate the environment
during end-of-life recycling. The Directive, which took effect on July 1, 2006, refers to the
following hazardous substances:

Lead (Pb)

Mercury (Hg)

Cadmium (Cd)

Hexavalent Chromium (Cr-V1)

Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBB)

Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE)
In accordance with this EU Directive, all Imagine Communications products sold in the
European Union will be fully RoHS-compliant and “lead-free.” (See the Imagine
Communications Premier website for more information on dates and deadlines for
compliance.) Spare parts supplied for the repair and upgrade of equipment sold before July 1,
2006 are exempt from the legislation. Imagine Communications equipment that complies
with the EU directive will be marked with a RoHS-compliant symbol, as shown in
Figure 1 .
