Foreword
The text of document 100/1244/FDIS, future edition 2 of IEC 60728-5, prepared by technical area 5,
Cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services, of IEC TC 100, Audio,
video and multimedia systems and equipment, was submitted to the IEC-CENELEC parallel vote and
was approved by CENELEC as EN 60728-5 on 2008-04-01.
This European Standard supersedes EN 50083-5:2001.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
(dop) 2009-01-01
national standard or by endorsement
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
(dow) 2011-04-01
with the EN have to be withdrawn
For this European Standard the informative Annex D of IEC 60728-5:2007 shall be disregarded and
has been replaced by the normative Annex ZB, Special national conditions.
Annexes ZA and ZB have been added by CENELEC.
__________
Endorsement notice
The text of the International Standard IEC 60728-5:2007 was approved by CENELEC as a European
Standard without any modification.
In the official version, for Bibliography, the following notes have to be added for the standards indicated:
IEC 60169-8 NOTE  IEC 60169-8:1986 is superseded by IEC 61169-8:2007, which is harmonized as
EN 61169-8:2007 (not modified).
