Please note that RoHS is not a requirement in Europe for telecom equipment! So if you have a SMT factory that still uses solder with Pb, you can avoid those issues.
You mean it's a requirement only for consumer electronics? Didn't know that.
Please read the EU directive. It's not as simple as consumer/professional equipment, but generally anything installed in a telcommunications network, or even a 19" rackmount server in a data center are not required to be lead-free.
