Figure 4: RRU system diagram As shown in the above figures, the DL signals from the BTS are coupled directly and converted into optical signals after amplification in the MOU. Then, the optical signals are transmitted to the RRU via optical fiber. The Optical TX/RX Module of RRU converts the DL optical signals into RF signals. After amplification, the signals are transmitted at the MT port to the service antenna. On the UL, the signals transmitted by the mobile are converted into optical signals, and then via the UL optical fiber. The signals are transmitted to MOU, which then converts the optical signals back to RF signals. After amplification, the signals are transmitted back to the BTS.

INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR RA-1900 Communication over optical fiber allows the RRU to be managed with the same fiber connection to the MOU. This is achieved by using the integrated Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) modem.

Consequently, serious damage to the retina of the eye is possible. NEVER LOOK INTO THE END OF A FIBER WHICH MAY HAVE A LASER COUPLED TO IT.
Radio Frequency Energies There may be situations, particularly for workplace environments near high-powered RF sources, where recommended limits for safe exposure of human beings to RF energy could be exceeded. In such cases, restrictive measures or actions may be necessary to ensure the safe use of RF energy.
High Voltage The equipment has been designed and constructed to prevent, as far as reasonably, practicable danger. Any work activity on or near equipment involving installation, operation or maintenance must be, as far as reasonably, free from danger. Where there is a risk of damage to electrical systems involving adverse weather, extreme temperatures, wet, corrosive or dirty conditions, flammable or explosive atmospheres, the system must be suitably installed to prevent danger.
Protective Earthing Equipment provided for the purpose of protecting individuals from electrical risk must be suitable for the purpose and properly maintained and used.
Handling Precautions This covers a range of activities including lifting, lowering, pushing, pulling, carrying, moving, holding or restraining an object, animal or person. It also covers activities that require the use of force or effort, such as pulling a lever, or operating power tools.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Observe standard precautions for handling ESD-sensitive devices. Assume that all solid-state electronic devices are ESD-sensitive. Ensure the use of a grounded wrist strap or equivalent while working with ESD-sensitive devices. Transport, store, and handle ESD-sensitive devices in static-safe environments.

Site Considerations The MOU can be located indoors to facilitate coupling of BTS signals and power supply connections. The recommended input range of BTS signal is -10~0 dBm. Hence, an appropriate coupler must be used according to input power of the repeater. The RRU is designed to be waterproof, rainproof, and with snow protection. Temporary protection should be taken when the equipment enclosure is opened for installation or maintenance in an outdoor environment. The equipment must not be opened for installation or maintenance in bad weather (e.g. gale, storm rainfall, extreme temperatures and high humidity) The site considerations for RRUs are listed below: The distance between the service antenna of RRU and coverage area should satisfy line of sight requirements for maximum coverage area. The maximum fiber length is 20km, with a maximum optical path loss of 10B. For outdoor coverage applications, UL diversity option is recommended. The system delay of the optical system must be taken into consideration when there are neighboring BTS sites overlapping in coverage.
Installation Location Mounting surface shall be capable of supporting the weight of the equipment. In order to avoid electromagnetic interference, a proper mounting location must be selected to minimize interference from electromagnetic sources such as large electrical equipment. Environmental Humidity has an adverse effect on the reliability of the equipment. It is recommended to install the equipment in locations having stable temperature and unrestricted air-flow. The installation location for the product should be well ventilated. The equipment has been designed to operate at the temperature range and humidity level as stated in the product specifications in the datasheet. Direct sun light exposure to the equipment should be avoided. Provide additional shelter if necessary. Powering The power supply unit (PSU) provides power to all modules within the equipment. Depending on the product variant, it is recommended that the PSU operates on a dedicated circuit breaker or fused circuit. Grounding Requirement Verify that the equipment has been well grounded. This includes antennas and all cables connected to the system. Ensure lightning protection for the antennas is properly grounded. Cable Routing Depending on equipment configuration, a variety of types of cables are required. Where applicable, ensure cables are properly routed and secured so that they are not damaged. Manual Handling During transportation and installation, take necessary handling precautions to avoid potential physical injury to the installation personnel and the equipment.

Working space available for installation and maintenance for each mounting arrangement. Ensure unrestricted airflow. Ensure earthing point is within reach of the ground wire. Ensure a power source is within reach of the power cord and the power source has sufficient capacity. Where appropriate, ensure unused RF connectors are terminated. Where appropriate, ensure unused optical filber connectors are protected. Do not locate the equipment near large transformers or motors that may cause electromagnetic interference. Reduce signal loss in feeder cable by minimizing the length and number of RF connections. Ensure the equipment will be operated within the stated environment (refer to datasheet). Where needed, couple BTS RF signal with a coupler to prevent damaging the equipment. Where appropriate, confirm available of suitably terminated grade of RF and optical fiber. (optical fiber 20km from MOU to RRU) Observe handling of all cables to prevent damage.

EQUIPMENT CONNECTION
Page 42
INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR RA-1900 To ensure safe operation of the product, a ground (earth) connection is required. For single phase AC power source, the product must be grounded by connecting the earth wire of the power cord to the ground terminal of the AC supply. For operating this product with DC power system (such as rectifiers), the product should not be connected to power systems that switch open the return lead because the return lead could function as the ground (earth) connection for the equipment. Protective Ground Connection The enclosure must be grounded securely by connecting a copper wire (CSA 16mm2) to the grounding terminal on the equipment/rack, and the other end to a protective ground (i.e., building earth point). An internationally acceptable colour code of the ground connection wire is green/yellow. Such a ground connection implements the Protective Ground Connection, and must be connected to the equipment at the designated ground point, and preferable using crimp connectors. In general, do not connect the supply before establishing an adequate ground (earth) connection. 1. MOU Grounding Connection
Connect the grounding terminal located on the back panel of MOU to a protective ground (i.e., building earth point). 2. RRU Grounding Connection

INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR RA-1900 Occasional operation tasks are required to handle the alarms. These are given in the following table: Alarm condition Power Down / Power Fault alarm handling UL/ DL PA alarms handling DL Output Power Low alarm handling DL Input Power Overload alarm handling Diagnosis Check AC power cable and verify AC mains supply is normal. During Power Fault alarm, DC power supply has no output. Check if DC output power is overloaded or short-circuited. The PSU could be faulty. Check power and signal connections of respective modules. If the power and signal wire connections are OK, then the respective modules may be faulty. Replace the faulty modules and return it to the factory for repair. Eliminate alarm by correct setting of DL Output Power Low threshold. If the setting is OK but alarm persists, the DL output power might be lower than the threshold. Adjust ATT to increase the DL output power. Eliminate alarm by correct setting of DL Input Power Overload Threshold. If the setting is OK but alarm persists, the DL input power might be higher than the threshold. Increase the ATT to reduce the input power or replace the BTS coupler with another one that has stronger coupling power and check the cable connection of the DT port to the BTS. Eliminate alarm by correct setting of temperature threshold, including normal and severe. If alarm can not be cleared, apply climatic protection to the equipment. Check MT antenna system and measure the downlink VSWR. It is recommended to set the VSWR alarm threshold 0.1~0.2 higher than the actual value. Table 27: Alarms diagnosis
