  1. Alcatel RoHS Compliance program ESD-NIBU

  2. Restriction on use of Hazardous Susbstances: a glance WHAT • European Directive on Restriction on the use of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) restricts the use of lead, mercury, cadmium, Chromium Hexavalent, PBB and PBDE (Brominated flame retardants) from Electrical and Electronic Equipment • Geographical scope: equipment put on the EU market • Alcatel product scope: all equipment except satellites, railway signalling systems, cables not part of equipment, components. WHEN • Products put on the market after July 1st 2006 must be compliant to the substance restriction use across Europe. HOW • For each product line, a project is in place to ensure compliance to RoHS. • All individual projects are coordinated through a corporate structure.

  3. RoHS directive – Main principles RoHS Technical Requirements “a maximum concentration value of 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials for lead, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) and of 0.01% weight in homogeneous materials for cadmium shall be tolerated. “ Exemptions • Lead-free solder • Authorised usages of the 6 substances subject to the RoHS restrictions are defined via exemptions in the Annex to the RoHs Directive • Telecom infrastructure equipment benefit from an exemption to the lead ban in solders • Repair parts • Repair parts for equipment put on the EU market before July 2006 are not in the scope of the RoHS requirements (Article 2-3) • System capacity expansion • The directive does not apply to parts for use in equipment put on the market before 1/07/2006 with the purpose of extending its life by updating its functionalities and upgrading its capacity (Commission FAQ)

  4. Alcatel Objectives and Strategy Objective : Have a RoHS compliant Alcatel product portfolio by July 2006 at the latest through a safe and soft transition Overall approach • Conversion / migration of all current products in Alcatel portfolio, to RoHS compliant products using the lead-free exemption where appropriate. • New products developments aims at: • not using the lead free exemption • or at least use components compatible with lead free solder processes to allow for a future process change if and when appropriate depending on • Components availability • Reliability data coming from industry assessment and internal pilot projects

  5. Alcatel Achievements • Corporate Procurement & Sourcing has collected RoHS related information from component manufacturers • 250K references at stake ! • Telecom and IT equipment (OEM) : RoHS roadmaps checked and reviewed as appropriate with suppliers • RoHS information traceability is ensured through the whole supply chain process from supply to design, manufacturing and delivery • A RoHS project is in place for each Product Line if it will be migrated • Lead-Free (LF) pilot projects are ongoing to prepare for a transition to lead free processes if and when appropriate.

  6. What does this mean for our NIBU product lines? • A number of product lines have been migrated or initially designed with ROHS in mind • The legacy product lines that cannot be migrated are announced “end of sales” and put on the spare parts portion of the price list • Non-Rohs compliant products are still available: • For spare parts • For system capacity expansions • They are listed on the official price list in the spare parts section

  7. ROHS compliant Product Families • OmniSwitch 9XXX (9600,9700,9800) • OmniSwitch 7XXX (7700, 7800) • OmniSwitch 6602 • OmniSwitch 6800 • OmniSwitch 6850 • OmniStack LS 6200 • OmniAccess WLAN • Resell of FORTINET • Resell of IPD products,… • Fiber Optic Transceivers • Software references, ROHS compliant by nature (OmniVista, Funk, etc…)

  8. Major Product line End Of Sales by July 06 • OmniSwitch 6600 (Note: OmniSwitch 6602 is not End of Sales) • Former Copper version OS6600-24/48 • Fiber version OmniSwitch 6600-U24 • POE version OmniSwitch 6600-P24 • OmniSwitch 8800 • OmniSwitch/Router, OmniSwitch ATM • OmniAccess 600 (due to termination of OEM agreement) • OmniStack 61xx • OmniStack 63xx • OmniAccess 512 • OmniAccess 4024

  9. Reverse Logistics • Non ROHS parts will be repaired or replaced with Non ROHS parts • ROHS compliant part will always be repaired or replaced with ROHS compliant material • A Non ROHS part could get replaced with a ROHS compliant assembly if no equivalent repair stock is available

  10. Documentation of ROHS compliance • A Document called “ECO Declaration” will be available for each ROHS compliant product line family • These documents will be available on our website by July 1st

  12. RoHS Operational Management in Alcatel • May 2004: Corporate RoHS project officially launched, under Chief Technology Officer (CTO) leadership • RoHS Core project team involves all Alcatel Product Groups, supported by HQ central teams: Industrial & Logistics, Procurement & Sourcing, Legal, Public Affairs, Communication and CTO • Each Product Line is in charge and accountable of its own RoHS compliance project • RoHS status is being reviewed periodically by the Product Line Management

  13. RoHS supply chain management • Supply Chain: compliance must be managed throughout the whole supply chain, from material/components level up to finished goods / equipment to be delivered to our customers • Collect, check, analyze, classify, enrich, suppliers information • Adapt / update processes and supporting IS tools • Enter suppliers RoHS related information in Data-bases, and ensure information continuity up to MRP and After-Sales Services for traceability purposes (including CEM) HOW ? • Top level management involvement and support • Cross functional & world-wide Alcatel team (dedicated resources) • Early start (2003), before project official launch (2004) • World-wide conversion programs • Tight control of incoming materials and processes in factories

  14. RoHS Technical Management • Technical: Materials /components replacement must be assessed in terms of quality-functionality / reliability, and costs (materials, re-design labor) • Search for technical alternatives in particular to lead based soldering process, and Cr VI coatings for mechanical parts • Assessment and qualification of new materials / components / OEM equipment • Risk mitigation schemes (tin whisker issue) HOW ? • World-wide experts network set up specifically for RoHS related issues • Strong involvement in standardization bodies (CEI, iNEMI,…)
