Revision of the Ordinance on telecommunications installations (OIT) and of the Ordinance of the Swiss Federal Office of Communications on telecommunications installations (OOIT); (12 page(s), in French), (12 page(s), in German), (12 page(s), in Italian)

The Ordinance on telecommunications installations (OIT) and the Ordinance of the Swiss Federal Office of Communications on telecommunications installations (OOIT) specify the basic technical requirements with regard to telecommunications installations.

The revision of the OIT and OOIT harmonises Swiss law with Directive (EU) 2022/2380. It introduces a common receptacle and charging technology for a broad range of categories of radio equipment. It also concerns the introduction of information requirements for manufacturers regarding the charging characteristics of the device, and mandates manufacturers to, at least, offer an unbundled version of their electronic devices (meaning to sell the equipment unbundled without the External Power Supply or propose both options bundled and unbundled). Furthermore, this revision clarifies the rules for making available on the market of radio equipment intended to be used exclusively by authorities for state security.
