Curious about the outcome. In fact, all the CoC referred above (for all models) require an update - explicitly listing the current as well as the status for earlier manufactured devices, including
"Directive 2011/65/EU (the RoHS Directive) OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 8 June 2011 on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment” superseding “Directive 2002/95/EC (the RoHS Directive) OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 27 January 2003. The Certificate of Compliance includes Directive 2015/863 published in 2015 by the EU (often referred as RoHS 3) and Directive 2017/2102/EU published by the EU November 17, 2015.
Based on the information provided by our supply lines, and our certain knowledge pertaining to our own processes, products supplied by Netgear are RoHS compliant for orders placed on or after the January 1, 2006. Products supplied on or after January 3, 2013 are also RoHS compliant according the Directive 2011/65/EU, Directive 2015/863 and Directive 2017/2102/EU from the moment the respected directive came into force.
The confirmation of compliance status by our supply lines is granted for products which do not contain any of the restricted substances referred to in Annex VI in the RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU & Directive 2015/863 with a higher than maximum concentration values tolerated by weight in homogeneous materials:
Lead 0,1%
Mercury 0,1%
Cadmium 0,01%
Hexavalent chromium 0,1%
Polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) 0,1%
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) 0,1%
Bis(2-Ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) 0,1%
Benzyl butyl phthalate (BBP) 0,1%
Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) 0,1%
Diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP) 0,1%
Netgear has taken all reasonable steps to verify the supply line information regarding the absence of the restricted substances.
Exceptions for lead (Pb) subject to 2011/65/EU Annex III:
6(a), 6(a)-I Lead as an alloying element in steel containing up to 0.35% lead by weight, and as a copper alloy 6(c.) (ie. Brass) containing up to 4% lead by weight. Netgear products are compliant."
The exceptions part needs an update for mid 2021.
can't be difficut 8-)
