In 2003, the European Union issued Directive 2002/95/EC regarding the Restriction of the use of
certain Hazardous Substances (RoHS) in electrical and electronic equipment.
The RoHS directive requires producers of electrical and electronic equipment to reduce to
acceptable levels the presence of six environmentally sensitive substances: lead, mercury,
cadmium, hexavalent chromium, and the presence of polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and
polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) flame retardants, in certain electrical and electronic
products sold in the European Union (EU) beginning July 1, 2006.
VersaLogic Corporation is committed to supporting customers with high-quality products and
services meeting the European Union’s RoHS directive.

Adapter cables for the EPM-4 are available in RoHS compliant and RoHS noncompliant versions.
Compliance or noncompliance is indicated by the part number prefix. “CBR” indicates RoHS
compliance. “CBL” indicates RoHS noncompliance. For applications that require RoHS
compliance, use only the RoHS compliant (“CBR” version) cables. Availability of RoHS
noncompliant cables may be limited.
