As known, hardware developing impossible without soldering iron. With UmTRXv2 I found that was used very infusible solder paste. As I understand it is due to compliance to Pb-free.
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.
The exact rules are a bit more complicated than this, but yes, there is a lot of exemptions from RoHS.
Good to know, thanks!
