A-TICK Marks (Telecommunications Certification)
Manufacturers in Australia, importers, or their authorised agent who are responsible for supplying radiocommunications, specified electrical and electronic devices or telecommunications equipment or cabling must comply with the applicable labelling notice, and therefore must have the relevant compliance mark, together with supplier identification, placed on the product.
The compliance label indicates that the device complies with the applicable standard(s) and establishes a traceable link between the device and the manufacturer, importer or their agent responsible for compliance and for placing it on the Australian market.
It is also an indication to the user that the device can be connected to a telecommunications network operated by a carrier or carriage service provider.
The requirements for labelling for telecommunications devices are:
The mark | To be used exactly as shown in the: Telecommunications Labelling (Customer Equipment and Customer Cabling) Notice 2001 No variations are permitted. |
Location | The A-Tick compliance label must be applied to the external surface of the device, as close as possible to the product identification code. Where this is not possible, due to the size or physical nature of the device, the A-Tick compliance label must be applied to the external surface of the device's packaging and to the documentation that accompanies the device when it is supplied. If the A-Tick compliance label is placed on the external surface of the packaging, the label must be clearly visible and take up an area that is greater than one per cent (1%) of that external surface. |
Method of marking | A legible and durable label must be applied by any suitable means, including printing, painting, moulding, etching or engraving. |
Scale | The A-Tick compliance mark must be at least 3mm in height and the supplier identification characters must be legible and at least 1mm in height. |
Colour | The A-Tick compliance label may be reproduced in any colour, or marked in relief (moulding, engraving, etc) on the equipment. |
The requirements for labelling for customer cabling are:
The mark | To be used exactly as shown in the: Telecommunications Labelling (Customer Equipment and Customer Cabling) Notice 2001 No variations are permitted. |
Location | The A-Tick compliance label must be applied at least once on the cable sheath, as close as possible to the product identification code. If, because of the size or physical nature of the cable, this compliance labelling requirement cannot be met, then the A-Tick compliance label must be applied to the external surface of the packaging used for the cable (for example, the drum, spool or box). If the A-Tick compliance label is placed on the external surface of the packaging, the label must be clearly visible and take up an area that is greater than one per cent (1%) of that external surface. Customer cable must also be identified on the sheath, at regular intervals of not more than two (2) metres, with a company name, trade name or trademark, as well as with a part number, identification number, name or part name. |
Method of marking | A legible and durable label must be applied by any suitable means, including printing, painting, moulding, etching or engraving. |
Scale | Where applied to the cable sheath, the A-Tick compliance mark must be at least 3mm in height and the supplier identification characters must be legible and at least 1mm in height. |
Colour | The A-Tick compliance label may be reproduced in any colour, or marked in relief (moulding, engraving, etc) on the equipment. |
The A-Tick compliance mark may also be placed on promotional material associated with the device.
If a device covered by the Telecommunications Labelling Notice does not comply with the applicable standard(s) and it is not a 'permitted item', it is regarded as 'non-compliant'.
Non-compliant devices must be labelled with the non-compliance label. This label comprises:
