Canadian Terminal Equipment Certification

Terminal Equipment (TE) is subject to registration using a Declaration of Conformity process. All TE must be tested to CS-03 by an ISO 17025 accredited lab that has been recognized by Industry Canada as a Conformity Assessment Body (CAB) for CS-03.

These laboratories must be resident in Canada or in an economy with a Mutual Recognition Agreement/Arrangement with Canada.

CS-03 covers different types of telecommunication equipment, including the following:

  • Analogue Telephone Equipment
  • PBX’s
  • ISDN Equipment (BRI and PRI)
  • xDSL Equipment (ADSL, SHDSL etc)
  • T1 Equipment
  • Digital Subrate Equipment

Nemko’s laboratories in Canada and the USA are accredited for testing to CS-03. In addition to our testing services, Nemko also provides value added compliance services to assist you in the registration process.
