  • RED Compliancy

As of 1st August 2025, the Radio Equipment Directive includes EN 18031 cybersecurity requirements. Falling behind could block your products from the EU market and lead to fines and reputational damage.


​

Why RED matters now

The Radio Equipment Directive is about more than ticking boxes. It ensures your radio equipment is secure, safe, and reliable. The new EN 18031 cybersecurity requirements mean devices must protect against modern threats and keep user data secure. Non-compliance isn’t just paperwork. It is a real risk to market access, could lead to fines, and can damage your reputation with customers and partners. Acting now gives you confidence that your network is robust, future-ready, and competitive.

Which devices are affected?

RED applies to any equipment that emits or receives radio waves for communication or radiodetermination. Common devices include:

  • IoT/LoRaWAN

  • Access Points

  • Wi-Fi Routers

  • Cellular Routers

  • Microwave Link Platforms

Whether you use private, public, or hybrid 4G/5G networks, compliance is mandatory. Upgrading now keeps your equipment secure and future-proof.

Act Now or Risk Falling Behind

Non-compliance with RED isn’t minor. Equipment can be fined, seized at customs, or pulled from the market, and EU access could be cut off overnight. Upgrading today means you can:

  • Secure your network with EN 18031 cybersecurity & encryption.

  • Handle modern demands with hybrid 4G/5G-ready devices.

  • Simplify management with user-friendly interfaces.

  • Future-proof equipment before components become scarce.

  • Build trust and stay competitive in the market.
