  "text": "Description of goods\nClassification CN code\nReasons\n(1)\n(2)\n(3)\n1.\nA product known as a graphics or digitzing tablet consisting a flat plastic housing containing electronic and electrical components such as processors, printed circuit board and interfacing circuitry. The uppermost surface, whose active area is approximately 28 cm by 28 cm, is fitted with a menu overlay. The tablet comes with a stylus and is linked via cable direct to the central processing unit of an automatic data-processing machine.\n8471 92 80\nClassification is determined by the provisions of General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the combined nomenclature, by Note 5 (B) to Chapter 84 and by the wording of CN codes 8471, 8471 92 and 8471 92 80.\n2.\nA colour with high-resolution 35,5 cm cathode-ray tube with a shadow mask, dot pitch of 0,31 mm for pixels of the same colour, mains adpater and circuit assemblies for processing RGB video and synchronous input signals (video bandwidth 0 MHz) and driving the picture tube of text and graphics reproduction as part of EDP and other information processing systems. The monitor is not capable of reproducing a colour image from a composite video signal.\n8471 92 80\nClassification is determined by the provisions of General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the combined nomenclature, by Note 5 (B) to Chapter 84 and by the wording of CN codes 8471, 8471 92 and 8471 92 80.\n3.\nA battery-driven modem contained in a housing measuring 10,2 x 6,1 x 2,5 cm in dimension fitted with four LEDs which indicate call status, speed, carrier frequency and battery depletion. The modem also has a data connector, telephone connections, acoustic-coupler connection and standarized miniature telephone jack. The modem is used for asynchronous data transmission between automatic data processing equipment via telephone lines in full duplex and acoustic-coupler mode at a speed of 300 or 1 200 bits per second.\n8517 40 00\nClassification is determined by the provisions of General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the combined nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 8517 and 8517 40 00 (see also the Explanatory Notes to the Harmonized System, heading 85.17, part III).\n4.\nA multi-media interactive system in a single housing (43,8 x 31,75 x 9,4 cm) capable of reproducing on a monitor, loudspeakers or headphones, audio, graphics, text and video data recorded on compact disc (CD).\nAn infra red remote control for the unit's special audio and video functions forms part of the system.\nThrough the addition of other accessories (e.g. disk drive, keyboard and mouse), it may be used as a personal computer. The housing comprises the following components:\na printed circuit board, including a digital processing unit (CPU, 1 MB RAM and Si2 KB ROM), a graphics component, a video component, a sound component with own CD audio unit, and\na CD — ROM (for data, sound and picture reproduction from 5'' compact discs only).\nThe system is capable of providing approximately 70 minutes of highfidelity music and high to low resolution graphics. The video reproduction capability of still-image pictures of a maximum length of approximately five minutes.\n8521 90 00\nClassification is determined by the provisions of General Rules 1, 3 (c) and 6 for the interpretation of the combined nomenclature, Note 5 to Chapter 84 to the combined nomenclature as well as the texts of CN codes 8521 and 8521 90 00.\n5.\nA CD interactive system in a single housing for the reproduction of digitally recorded pictures and sound for television by means of a laser optical reading system. It is supplied with a mouse and infra red remote control unit.\nIt contains a control unit that processes signals from the playing unit, from the remote control or from the mouse unit, to the television dispaly and loudspeaker unit, enabling interaction with picture and sound.\n8521 90 00\nClassification is determined by the provisions of General Rules 1, 3 (c) and 6 for the interpretation of the combined nomenclature, Note 5 to Chapter 84 to the combined nomenclature as well as the texts of CN codes 8521 and 8521 90 00.\n6.\nThe components of ‘radio conferencing apparatus’ not presented together for retail sale in a single package consisting of:\n(a)\na transmitter microphone comprising a highly sensitive transmitting device for radio communication with a built-in microphone, and aerial; and\n8525 10 90\nClassification is determined by the provisions of General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the combined nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 8525, 852510, 8525 10 90, 8527, 8527 90 and 8527 90 99.\n(b)\none or more receivers comprising receiving devices for radio communication with frequency module and socket for connection to a hearing aid, whether or not incorporating a directional microphone.\n8527 90 99\nClassification under heading 9021 is precluded because the goods are not considered to be designed exclusively as a hearing aid or an accessory for a hearing aid within the meaning of the heading.\n7.\nA colour video monitor capable of reproducing a colour image from a composite video signal, with a 33 cm cathode-ray tube, mains adapter, loudspeaker signal inputs (video, audio) and circuit assemblies for processing the video/audio and synchronous input signals and driving the picture tube (dot pitch 0,64 mm) and the loudspeaker. The monitor is designed for the reproduction of still or animated images and shades following cable connection to computers, video recorders, video disk players or other picture sources.\n8528 10 31\nClassification is determined by the provisions of General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the combined nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 8528, 8528 10 and 8528 10 31.",
