Prevent metal filings from falling into the cabinet. Improper drilling will deteriorate the electromagnetic shielding performance of the cabinet. After drilling, remove all the metal filings immediately.
3.5 Thunderstorm
Danger: High-voltage and AC operations and operations on steel towers and masts are strictly prohibited in thunderstorms.
Thunderstorms can generate powerful electromagnetic field in the atmosphere. Therefore, equipment should be grounded properly in order to prevent the equipment from being thunderstruck.
3.6 Electrostatic
Caution: Static electricity generated on human body may damage the electrostatic-sensitive parts on the circuit board, such as large-scale integrated circuit (IC).
In dry climate, the electrostatic charge carried by human body may be up to 30 kV, which will remain on the human body for a rather long period of time. The operators contact with the component and the electric discharge will cause damage to the component.
Before contacting any equipment, hand-held plug-in boards, circuit boards and IC chips, put on anti-static wrist belts with one end well grounded so as to prevent sensitive parts from being damaged by static electricity on the human body.
Before operators touch the board or module, they should discharge the electrostatic in their body. That is, before the operator touch a board or a module, he must wear anti-static wrist strap. The connecting line between wrist and grounding point should connect in series with a resistance greater than 1M: to protect people from being accidentally shocked. The resistance value greater than 1M: is rather low in terms of electrostatic voltage discharging. The anti-static wrist strap should be checked regularly. It is strictly prohibited using other cable to replace the cable of anti-static wrist strap.

Safety Precautions
Electrostatic-sensitive board or module should not be in contact with the object with electrostatic or the object that may easily generate electrostatic. Electrostatic-sensitive board or module can only contact the quality discharging material, such as the anti-static packing bag. The board in stock or in the course of transportation should be packaged with anti-static packing bag.
Before the measurement device is connected to boards or modules, it should firstly discharge its electrostatic; that is, the measurement device should be grounded in the first place.
The boards or modules should not be placed near strong DC magnetic field, say, near the cathode ray tube of the scope. The safety distance should be outside of 10 cm range at least.
The damage caused by electrostatic is accumulative in effect. If the damage is slight, the component will not malfunction. However, as the time of damage increases, the components may suddenly fail. The electrostatic discharging damage on the component is of two types: explicit damage and implicit damage. Implicit damage is not shown when the damage occurs, whereas the component may become vulnerable and easily get damaged under the condition of over-voltage and of high-temperature.
The correct way of wearing anti-static wrist strap is shown in Figure 1.

3.7 Label Stickers of Power Supply Cables
Attention: Before connecting the cables, check the correctness of label stickers and then make the connection.
Safety Precautions
3.8 Leakage Current
Warning: To avoid the occurrence of large leakage current, the equipment must be grounded before it is connected with power supply.
Before connecting the AC input power supply, the operation and maintenance personnel should first connect the protection-grounding terminal of the equipment housing with the earth. The purpose of doing this is to avoid the electric shock on human body result from leakage current, which is usually caused by the EMI wave filter earth capacitance of the equipment AC power supply input terminal or the Y capacitance of the primary power supply.
3.9 Environment with Flammable Air
Danger: The equipment should not be placed in the environment where flammable, explosive air or smog exists. No operation of any kind can be performed in this environment.

Do not handle them upside down or in slant position.
z z z z z
4.2 Short Circuit
Caution: Short-circuit will cause personal injury. Although the voltage of ordinary battery is not high, the powerful instantaneous current generated by short-circuit may release immense energy.
Prevent short-circuit of batteries caused by metal articles, such as short-circuit caused by improper use of tools. If permitted, first disconnect the batteries at work and then proceed with other operations.
4.3 Harmful Gases
Caution: Unsealed lead acid batteries should not be used, as the gas released from the batteries may cause fires or equipment corrosion. Batteries should be placed horizontally.
Batteries may give off inflammable gases in operation, so the place where the batteries are located should be well ventilated and fire prevention measures should be taken.
Safety Precautions
4.4 High Temperature
Caution: Excessively high temperature of batteries will cause deformation and damage of batteries and spillover of acid liquid.
When the temperature of battery is over 60C, check whether there is spillover of acid liquid. In case of acid liquid spillover, please handle the acid spillover in time.
4.5 Acid Liquid
Caution: In case of acid liquid spillover, make sure that such spillovers are absorbed and neutralized.
To move leaking batteries, mind the damages liable from the acid liquid. Once acid liquid is found to have spilt over, absorb and neutralize it with the following materials.
z z z z
Bicarbonate: NaHCO3 Barilla: Na2CO3 Soda: Na2CO310H2O Consult with battery manufacturers as regards materials used to absorb and neutralize acid liquid.
4.6 Battery Replacement
Warning: Operation and maintenance personnel should not replace the batteries of prescriptive model with that of different model; otherwise, the explosion danger of the batteries may incur.
To prevent battery leakage due to aging, periodical checking (at least once half a year) is needed.

Safety Precautions
Microwave and Magnetic Field
5.1 Introduction
The equipment antenna in service will generate electromagnetic radiation. Standing too close to the antenna is against the safety codes. The equipment can only be installed and maintained by trained professional personnel. The radiation design of the equipment should meet the IEEE C95.1-1991 recommendation. When working near the full-power transmitting antenna, one should read the following safety working requirement.
5.2 Definition of the Environment

The uppermost level limit of the environment that can be exposed to radio magnetic radiation is of two kinds: one is "controlled environment" and the other is "uncontrolled environment" with less radiation.
z
Controlled environment
"Controlled environment" refers to a certain location where the personnel who enter the area are aware of the potential threat of exposing themselves in the radio frequency radiation environment. The magnetic field level of the area is higher than that the level of "uncontrolled environment" but no greater than that of "controlled environment level" listed in the table.
z
Uncontrolled environment
"Uncontrolled environment" refers to a certain location where the personnel who enter the area are not aware of the potential threat of exposing oneself in the radio frequency radiation environment, and they cannot be in control of the environment where they are situated. This location may include living environment or working environment. The magnetic field level of the location cannot be greater than the uppermost level that can be exposed in the "uncontrolled environment".
5.3 Minimal Distance Formula

The following content introduces how to calculate the minimal safety distance. The formula is used for calculating the minimal safety distance apart from all types of antenna.
G-L
rmin =
N10 10 P 4 W
OUT
The respective element in the formula is explained in the following:
11
Safety Precautions
Rmin is the minimal safety distance, and its unit is meter. N is the number of frequency carriers. Pout is the output power of the frequency carrier, and its unit is W. L is the loss from transmitting party to the receiving party, and its unit is dBm. G is the antenna gain, and its unit is dBm. W is the greatest field power density permitted, and its unit is W/m2. In the uncontrolled environment, the greatest field power density permitted is f/150, in which f is the frequency, whose unit is MHz. Its tested value is the mean value measured when the testing time is over 30 minutes. In the controlled environment, the greatest filed power density permitted is f/30, and its tested value is the mean value measured when the testing time is over 6 minutes. Upon the above formula, the minimal safety distance on the axial line of the antenna field is shown in Table 2. Table 2 The typical minimal safety distance Frequency Frequency output power Loss from the transmitting party to the receiving party Antenna gain Number of the frequency carrier Power density/uncontrolled environment Power density/controlled environment Uncontrolled environment Controlled environment f (MHz) Pout (W) L (dBm) G (dBm) N W (W/m2) W (W/m2) rmin (m) rmin (m) 40 5.5 18 2 12 60 3.1 1.4 1800
5.4 Operation Codes
Warning: When operating on the high intensity radio frequency signal equipment, mind that the high-intensity microwave is detrimental to human health.
When installing and maintaining the antenna at local end on steel tower and mast on which multiple transmitter antennae are installed, proper coordination work should be made in advance and the transmitter of the antenna should be shut down.
12
Safety Precautions
Warning: The operation of installation and maintenance around the area where the antenna is in service should be kept away from the antenna for a distance far enough.
It is strictly prohibited to screw off the transmitter output feeder or antenna feeder cable plug while the transmitter is in operation. When it is required to screw off the feeder cable plug or to work in the nearby of the transmitting antenna, the concerned transmitter should be powered off.
Laser
Warning: The laser beam inside optical fibers may do harm to the eyes.
In the installation and maintenance of optical fibers, keep your eyes away from, or avoid direct look at, the optical fiber outlet.
High Temperature
Warning: It is unavoidable that the temperature of some equipment parts is rather high. Please do not touch the surface freely, or the scalding may occur.
When the equipment is running in the tropical environment, the temperature benchmark of the parts is 45C and the maximal range of temperature rise allowed is 30C in the normal working condition. When fault occurs, the maximal range of temperature rise allowed is 55C. So when the parts work at the high temperature of 45C in the normal working condition, their highest temperature should not exceed 75C, and when fault occurs, the highest temperature should not exceed 100C.
The temperature for radiator of the transmitter RF power amplifier and the power supply radiator, for instance, can reach above-mentioned high temperature.
13
Safety Precautions
Fan
Warning: To dismount the fan in running, never dip the finger or tool into the fan before the fan is powered off or stops running so as to avoid damaging the equipment or result in injury on human body.
z z
Inserting the finger into the fan while it is running will lead to injury. When replacing related parts, place the objects such as the parts, screw, and tool properly. Make sure that they would not fall into the fan in running, or it will damage the fan or related equipment.
When replacing the peripheral equipment of the fan, never dip the finger or board into the fan to avoid any possible injuries on the equipment or the hands.
Warning: Keep yourself away from the dangerous running parts.
Working at Heights

3.3.3 Bearing Capability

Equipment bearing depends on:
z z z z
Equipment weight Equipment base area Installation site Equipment room structure
Ask a construction engineer to verify the bearing capacity of the equipment room. If the capacity fails to satisfy the needs, you must have the construction strengthened.
3.3.4 Equipment Room Floor

An antistatic floor is a must for NodeB equipment room. The floor must meet the following needs:
z
The resistance of antistatic raised floor must comply with the requirements for such floors in computer equipment room. The floor is firm and tight, with a horizontal error no greater than 2 mm. If antistatic raised floor is not available, you can use a static-conductive floor (mass resistivity from 1.0107 to 1.01010 ) instead. Be sure to connect the floor to the grounding device through a current-limiting resistor and connecting cables. The resistance of the resistor shall be 1 M. Tests show that terrazzo ground (including cement ground) reaches the standard.
z z
Be sure to cover all the holes for cabling with lids. Make sure that the holes are accurate in position and size for future installation.
3.3.5 Equipment Room Windows and Doors

Doors and windows of the equipment room must meet the following needs:
z z z
The minimum size of doors is: 2 m (height) 1 m (width) Be sure to seal doors and windows with anti-dust rubber strips. For windows exposed to sunshine, apply reflecting paper on the windowpane or use colored glass. If the illumination inside the room permits, you may also block windows.
3-2
3.3.6 Equipment Room Roof and Walls

The roof and walls of the equipment room must meet the following needs
z
Make sure that the roof and walls are of enough endurance, heat insulation, and leakage-proof capabilities. Waterproof antenna mast and cabling holes on the roof. Make sure that the roof is strong enough to bear the facilities. You may paint walls with lusterless lacquer, but never with the paint that easily chalks.
3.3.7 Dust Density Requirements

Table 3-1 lists the dust density requirements in the equipment room. Table 3-1 Dust density requirements in equipment room Maximum diameter (m) Maximum density of dust (number of particles/m3) 1 .4107 3 7105 5 2.4105 10 1.3105
3.3.8 Shockproof Requirements

The intensity requirements of shock-proof design of the room shall be one degree above the local intensity requirement. Make sure that the equipment room meets the requirement. Strengthen it if necessary.
3.4 Power Supply

3.4.1 DC Power Supply
The -48V DC power supply for NodeB must meets the following requirements:
I. DC Power Supply
z
Voltage range: -40 V to 60 V DC
Rectifier: If AC input voltage ranges from 85% to 110% of the nominal voltage and the load current from 5% to 100% of the nominal current, the output voltage of the rectifier stays at a value in the range of -46.0 V to -56.4 V. The regulated voltage precision 1 %.
3-3

z
On/off overshoot magnitude: less than 5% over or below the rectified DC output voltage. Peak to peak noise voltage 200 mV Dynamic response: The restore time is shorter than 200 ms. The overshoot value is less than 5% over or below the rectified DC output voltage.
z z
II. DC Power Supply System

z
The capacity of DC power supply system is higher than the maximum dynamic load and static load by a specific value. Place the power supply equipment close to communications equipment to make the DC feeder line short. The voltage drop of the loop between the port on battery and the port on equipment shall be lower than 3.2 V. This design reduces power consumption and installation cost.
If the exchange has a large capacity or there are more than two switching systems, two or more independent power supply systems are required. For a large-capacity communication center, independent power supply systems can supply power for each floor or each equipment room. For common exchanges, concentrated power supply with a power room and battery compartment applies. The distributed power supply also applies. For small-capacity exchanges, the power supply system can be integrated into the equipment. Be cautious of corrosive gas given out by battery in the equipment room that may damage circuit boards in the equipment.
The distributed power supply with multiple power supply systems and power devices is advisable. The output voltage of the DC power supply systems stays within the output voltage range. The AC power supply system is reliable for reliable power supply and lower battery capacity requirement. For small-capacity exchanges that are hard to improve the reliability, you may enhance the battery capacity.
III. High Frequency On/off Rectifier

The capacity of the high frequency on/off rectifier shall meet the needs of communication load power and battery charging power. If the number of active rectifiers is less than 10, use one standby rectifier. If the number is over 10, use one standby rectifier for every 10 active ones.
IV. Battery
Install batteries in two or more groups. The total capacity depends on the time of independent power supply for load of each battery group. For most exchanges, the time of independent power supply for load of each battery group depends on permissible power off time and complies to the following rules:
3-4

z z z z
For first-rank mains supply, the battery need sustain 0.5 to 1 hour. For second-rank mains supply, the battery need sustain 1 to 2 hours. For third-rank mains supply, the battery need sustain 2 to 3 hours. For fourth-rank mains supply, the battery need sustain 8 to 10 hours if: -there is only one power line from one power supply, -the power is usually off for a whole day or a whole night, or -the power supply is not stable or up to the standards of third-rank mains supply.
For fourth-rank mains supply, the battery need sustain 20 to 24 hours if there is seasonal long-time power failure of if there is no mains supply. For unattended sites, the battery must sustain long enough for the following factors: -The technicians need time to prepare after being informed of a power fault. -The normal-speed drive to the site takes time. -It takes time to handle the fault. -The technicians do not go to unattended sites on mountain top or suburb by night. -For sites with time-delay oil generators, the released energy of the battery during the delay cannot exceed 20% of its capacity.
3.4.2 AC Power Supply

The AC power supply for NodeB must meet the following requirements:
z z
The electric network for NodeB is independent and good in quality. The AC power distribution capacity of the equipment room depends on the working current and fault current of the equipment. Each independent device must be equipped with independent facilities for AC power distribution protection. The threshold of the protection switch shall be higher than the downstream electric equipment.
Use voltage regulation devices in either case below: -The communications equipment is powered by mains supply directly. The power supply voltage is 5% higher or 10% lower than the nominal voltage or out of the permissible voltage range of the communications equipment. - The communications equipment is not directly powered by mains supply. The power supply voltage is 10% higher or 15% lower than the nominal voltage or out of the permissible AC input voltage range of DC power equipment. Apply UPS or DC-to-AC converters to power supply for no-break
communications.
3-5

z
To ensure critical communications load and power load in mains failure, the office site shall be equipped with a generator set as power supply for itself. The capability of the set is 1.5 to 2 times of the total capability of AC non-stop electric equipment.
Table 3-2 lists the requirements for AC voltage
Table 3-2 Requirements for AC voltage Input voltage range Power frequency Wave distortion 90% to 110% of nominal voltage 98% to 102% of nominal power frequency The total harmonic component shall be smaller than 10%.
3.5 Illumination
The requirements for equipment room illumination include:
z
Avoid direct sunshine on the equipment room to prevent circuit board and other elements from aging and deforming. Install gentle-light anti-explosion lamps in the battery compartment. For unattended NodeBs, use common illumination provided by the mains supply for the equipment room. For NodeBs with large capacity and much importance, prepare an emergency lighting system with DC power supply as standby illumination.
z z
3.6 Air Conditioning and Ventilation

3.6.1 Humidity and Temperature
Table 3-3 lists the requirements for humidity and temperature of the equipment room: Table 3-3 Working conditions of BTS3812 Item Normal operating conditions Safe operating conditions Temperature Relative humidity Temperature
Relative humidity
Range 0C to 45C 20% RH to 85% RH -5C to 50C

5% RH to 95% RH
3-6
Note: In normal operating conditions, measure the temperature and humidity of the point 2 meters above the floor and 0.4 meter in front of the equipment. Make sure that there are no fenders in front of or behind the rack during the process. Safe operating condition means the system operates for less than 48 hours continuously at a time and less than 720 hours in sum in a year.
3.6.2 Calculation of the Equipment Heat Productivity

The NodeB air conditioning depends on heat productivity of the equipment. The formula for heat productivity of the equipment is as follows: Q = 0.86 (V*A W) (Unit: kcal/hour) In this formula, Q: Heat productivity of NodeB equipment V: Voltage of the DC power supply (V) A: Average busy hour power consumption (A) W: Effective radiating power of the antenna end (W) 0.86: conversion coefficient of electrical energy per watt to heat energy
3.6.3 Air Conditioning Capacity

The actual air conditioning capacity depends on the equipment room volume and the heat productivity of NodeB equipment. For specific calculation, refer to related design specifications. For an ordinary NodeB, you can use two air conditioners alternately.
3.6.4 Anti-Interference Protection

I. interference Causes
Interference sources produce stray signals. The stray signals affect communications quality, generate cross talk and noise, and even affect the normal operation of NodeB. Interference sources include:
z z
Corona discharge of transmission line Electromagnetic interference caused by transformer

z z z z
Various kinds of switch apparatuses Waveform distortion in operating large equipment Radio-frequency interference Natural interference such as the terrestrial magnetic field and extraneous radiation
All the interference, in any form they might be, comes from:
z z z z z
Capacitance coupling Inductive coupling Electromagnetic wave radiation, Electric conduction of common impedance (including the grounding system) Electric conduction of various conducting wires (power cables, signal cables and output cables).
External interference enters the equipment through input signal cables, output cables, power cables, grounding system, and space electromagnetic wave.
II. Anti-Interference Measures

External noise over anti-interference tolerance of integrated circuit of equipment leads to misoperation of the equipment. The entire equipment cannot work normally in that situataion. It is not feasible to remove or shield all interference. However, you may take the following measures to suppress the interference:
z
The high frequency interference on electric networks comes from the coupling of primary coil to secondary coil of the power transformer through distributed capacitor. A low pass filter on led-in power cables and a proper power transformer can suppress the interference.
To suppress the interference generated by transient changes in electric network, you can lead in the power directly from the main transformer and add a filter capacitor to the line..
If NodeB equipment connects to a 50 Hz mains power network where the above interference sources exist, the voltage of the power network may sharply change or even generate over-voltage upon a lightning strike. The interference enters NodeB and causes calculation errors to internal processors of NodeB. Switch NodeB to mains supply only when some effective measures are taken against interference on electric network.
The key to removing the interference caused by the grounding system is to prevent various grounds (signal ground, power ground, protection ground and shielding ground) from forming loops, including the loop formed by large distributed capacitor. Otherwise, interference signals will affect the normal operation of the NodeB through the coupling of the common impedance of the grounding system.
Protect the equipment against the electromagnetic interference from surrounding environment and telecom lines.
3-8
In some communications buildings, there may be multiple high frequency transmitters. Their influence on NodeB equipment shall comply with the requirements of the related EMC standards. Besides, be sure to ground, shield, and wave-filter NodeBs properly. In high frequency electromagnetic field (external interference), a high longitudinal voltage may be inducted in the sheath and the core of the communication cable. Because of the asymmetry of the core, the longitudinal voltage may generate lateral noise voltage at the end of the core. The noise voltage causes interference. If the metal skin of the cable sheath is grounded, the sheath will produce shield function and the longitudinal voltage will drop greatly, thus suppressing the interference voltage. There are several other effective methods to suppress interference as follows:
z z
Reducing the voltage and current of interference sources Shortening wires or the interval of wires to reduce the area of the interference loop Placing insulated and interfered wires on the grounded surface Using special ground return line to eliminate common impedance Twisting the signal wire and the return line together to offset the partial external electromagnetic interference

5.3 Installing Cabling Racks

5.3.1 Modes of Installing Cabling Racks
There are three modes to install the cabling racks:
z
Suspenders can be mounted on the ceiling from which a cabling rack can be suspended (referred to as the suspension-mounting method for short). Support posts can be mounted on the floor to support a cabling rack (referred to as the floor-supporting method for short). A triangular support can be mounted on a wall to support a cabling rack running alongside.
The cabling rack is in form of cabling ladder. Wiring trough is optional. The cabling ladder and the wiring trough have the following specifications:
z z z
Use 200mm wide wiring trough for 200mm wide cabling ladder. Use 400mm wide wiring trough for 400mm wide cabling ladder. Use 400mm+200mm wide wiring troughs for 600mm wide cabling ladder.
It is recommended to use a 400mm-wide cabling ladder over the cabinet and not use a wiring trough to facilitate wiring and to heat dissipation of the system.

5.3.3 Assembling of Cabling Ladders

I. Assembling of the cabling ladders
Use a fastener to connect the cross stay with the channel-section steel. The spacing between two cross stays is 250 mm. Because the hole spacing of a channel-section steel is 50 mm, one cross stay should be installed every five trough holes.
Caution: When the assembled cabling ladder is used for the horizontal installation of the cabling rack in the equipment room, the bolt head of the cabling ladder should face downward to avoid protrusion from the cabling ladder and thus facilitate the installation of the wiring trough. Figure 5-4 shows the outline of the cabling ladder.
5-4
II. Jointing of the cabling ladders

Each ladder segment is 2.5 meter long. To make a cabling ladder several times that length, joint multiple segments end to end. The connecting part is the channelsection-connecting piece, as shown in Figure 5-6.
(1) (2)
(1) Channel-section steel
(2) Channel-section connecting piece
Figure 5-6 Jointing the cabling ladders Cut off the extra part of the cabling ladder, if its length is not an integer multiple of 2.5meter. Apply the touch-up painting with the brush at the cross-section for antirust purpose and for neat appearance.
5.3.4 Suspension-Mounting or Floor-supported Installation Method

When the cabling rack is installed other than against the wall, adopt the suspensionmounting or floor-supported installation method. The parts to be suspension mounted or floor supported consists of channel-section steel, angle supports, fasteners and expansion bolts. Prepare two segments of channel-section steel for connection of the cabling ladder with the ceiling (or the floor). The channel-section steel is 2.5 m long. According to the height difference between the cabling rack and the equipment room, cut the channelsection steel to a proper length. Apply the touch-up painting at the cross-section. When the length exceeds 2.5 m, connect the two segments of channel steel in the same method as that of the cabling ladder. The connecting role is also performed by the channel-section connecting pieces. Because the hole spacing of the channelsection steel on the cabling ladder is 50 mm, it is recommended that the distance between two suspenders or support posts be 1250 mm, that is, each segment of cabling ladder be borne by two suspenders or support posts. When performing installation in suspension-mounting or floor-supported method, mount the suspender or support post on the outer side to facilitate the installation of the wiring trough. Be sure to insulate the suspending or supporting parts from the

5.3.5 Triangular Support Installation Method

When the cabling rack is placed against the wall, adopt the triangular support installation method. The triangular support is in a welded structure and secured onto the wall by expansion bolts. There are mounting holes on the crossbeam of the support through which the cabling ladder can be installed. The triangular support has three specifications respectively for the 200mm, 400mm and 600mm wide cabling ladders. Secure the triangular support onto the wall by expansion bolts. Use the big flat washer 8 instead of the flat washers on the expansion bolts. Mount two pieces of insulating spacers between the vertical beam of the triangular support and the wall. Be sure to add an insulating washer between the nut and the vertical beam. Use one washer for each nut. Install a cabling ladder as follows: 1) 2) Directly place the ladder onto the crossbeam of a triangular support. Align the holes in the lower edges of the channel-section steel mounted on both sides of the ladder with the mounting holes in the crossbeam of the support and connect them using fasteners, as shown in Figure 5-8.
5-6
Caution: The distance between two triangle supports must be an integer multiple of 50 mm. It is recommended that the support spacing be 1250 mm. In this way, each segment of the cabling ladder can be supported by two triangular supports.

5.3.6 Jointing Cabling Racks

I. Jointing the cabling racks horizontally
When the cabling racks need to joint perpendicularly in a same level surface, there are two different installation modes.
z
For the cabling rack without wiring trough
When the jointed cabling racks consist of cabling ladders only, use angle connecting pieces and fasteners to joint the two cabling ladders. Make sure that the two cabling ladders are in the same level surface. Figure 5-9 shows such an installation mode.
(1)
(1).Angle support
Figure 5-9 Horizontal jointing of the cabling ladders

z
For the cabling rack with wiring trough
When the jointed cabling racks are equipped with a wiring trough, there is a height difference of a wiring trough between the two cabling racks. However, the height of the wiring trough for one of the cabling racks should be in the same level with the ladder of another, to ensure that the cable would encounter no trouble when running along the cabling rack. Use angle supports and fasteners here for the connection, as shown in Figure 5-10.

(1) Angle support
Figure 5-10 Horizontal jointing of the cabling racks equipped with a wiring trough
II. Jointing the cabling racks on different level surfaces

When the cabling ladder needs to go up or down, one small segment of cabling ladder can be made into a climbing ladder. Angle supports and fasteners are used for the connection. Figure 5-11 shows the perpendicular jointing of cabling ladders, wherein the left figure shows the front view of the jointing and the right one shows the side view. Pay attention to the mounting mode of the angle supports shown in the figure. Figure 5-12 shows the slant jointing of the ladders.

When the cabling ladder has to be jointed to the wall, adopt the installation method as shown in Figure 5-13. The connecting part is composed of angle supports, insulating spacers, insulating washers, fasteners and expansion bolts. Insulating spacers and insulating washers are added here to insulate the cabling rack from the wall. Be sure to use the big flat washer8 instead of the washer self-contained in the expansion bolt to enlarge the contact area of the washer and the insulating washer.

5.3.7 Connecting and Installing Wiring Troughs

Because the wiring trough is tapered, just insert the smaller end of the wiring trough to the bigger end of another wiring trough to finish the connection. The depth of the insertion is 250 mm. When the 200mm-wide or 400mm-wide wiring trough is used, directly place the wiring trough on the cabling ladder. Then, secure the wiring trough on the cabling ladder with the wiring trough fixing clip. For each segment of the wiring trough, use four such clips that are symmetrical at both sides. Figure 5-14 shows the connection and installation between wiring troughs.

Figure 5-14 Connecting and installing 200mm or 400mm wide wiring troughs When a wiring trough is necessary for the 600mm-wide cabling ladder, you can join a 200mm-wide trough with a 400mm-wide trough. Then, use connecting clips to join the two wiring troughs together. For each segment of wiring trough, use three connecting clips. At the same time, secure the wiring trough on the cabling ladder using four fixing clips, as shown in Figure 5-15.

5.3.8 Installing Accessories

I. Installing the cable-through racks
For the cabling rack with wiring trough and that without wiring trough, the installation of a cable-trough rack is different. Figure 5-16 shows the case when wiring trough is not adopted for the cabling rack. Here, the holes at the upper row are used for installing the cable-through rack. When wiring trough is adopted for the cabling rack, the holes at the lower row are used for the installation to ensure the upper plane of the cable-through rack stays about the same level with the uppermost plane of the cabling rack. It also facilitates cable routing. The cable-through rack is installed on the cabling ladder at the cabinet top. Its quantity and location depend on actual conditions of the installation site.

II. Installing end covers, baffle rings and protective cable sheathings
End covers are installed at the ends of the cabling ladder for a better appearance and against damage to the cables. Baffle rings are directly snapped in at both sides of the wiring trough. You can add the baffle rings to heighten the edge of the wiring trough to prevent the cables from running out of the wiring trough. Figure 5-14 shows their installation positions. Use four such rings for each segment of wiring trough evenly at both sides. Install protective cable sheathings at the bottom edge to avoid any possible damage to the cables. Any naked bottom edge of the wiring trough should be installed with protective cable sheathing. Figure 5-11 (the figure on the left) shows installation of end cover and protective cable sheathing.

7.5 Installation in Equipment Room with Antistatic Floor and Sufficient Bearing Capacity
Caution: On the equipment room floor made of precast slabs, never install multiple cabinets on the one slab, as shown in Figure 7-6.
7.5.1 Installation Mode

The installation on the antistatic floor varies with different antistatic floor types. The installation described here is the most commonly used method. For cabling on the floor, you can restore the floor only after laying all the cables. In other cases, you can restore the entire antistatic floor after installing the cabinet. To install the cabinet on the antistatic floor, the A600 series of supports are required. Each cabinet entails two such supports. The supports are installed beneath the floor. That is, the floor is between the cabinets and the supports. Bolts are put through the antistatic floor to fix the cabinets and the supports together.

8.3 Installation Principle for Boards

Follow the following principles when installing boards:
8-2

z
Install the boards in the upper subrack first and then the ones in the lower subrack. For boards in the same subrack, install the boards from the leftmost slot to the rightmost slot.
For the delivered cabinet, there are blank filler panels on the slots that not need to install the boards. It is recommended to install the boards into the slots without blank filler panels.
To install a board into a slot with a blank filler panels, remove the blank filler panel and then install the board. It is recommended to install a board right following the removal of its blank filler panel.
Insert the boards strictly according to the names on the board nameplates. Figure 8-1 shows the correspondence between board name and slot. Do not touch PCB and components except jumpers and DIP switches on the board.
8.4 Installation Preparation

Prepare as follows before installing boards: 1) Wear an antistatic wrist strap and make sure its grounding plug is plugged into the special jack inside the cabinet, as shown in Figure 8-2.
(1) Special jack inside the cabinet
(2) Grounding plug of antistatic wrist
(3) Antistatic wrist
Figure 8-2 Usage of antistatic wrist 2) 3) Clean up the subracks. Check whether there are any bent, missed or broken pins on the backplane. If there is any bent pin, replace or straighten it using a pair of nipper pliers when in emergence. If there is any missed pin, replace the backplane. 4) Check whether the sockets on the backplanes and the boards are deformed. If there is little deformation, adjust the socket using a pair of nipper pliers. As for serious deformation, replace the backplane or board. 5) Prepare the #2 Phillips screwdriver whose diameter is 6 mm. The screwdriver is used to tighten the M3 screws on board panels.
8-3
Note: If the specifications of the Phillips screwdrivers are not known, it is recommended to try the screwdrivers one by one on the screw by starting from the one with the largest diameter until the one matching the screw or slightly larger than the screw is found.
8.5 Installing Fan Box

Caution: Try to install the fan box in one action to prevent damages to the connector on the back of the fan box caused by repetitive plugging. Do not remove the fan box at will after it starts working normally.
Fan boxes are installed in the fan subrack. Install them as follow: 1) 2) Put the fan box into the corresponding slot. Push the fan box in along the rail slowly, as shown in Figure 8-3. Push harder because there will be larger resistance when the distance between the handle and the subrack reaches 6 mm. Finally, push the fan box in position.
Warning:
z
If you feel larger resistance in the above procedure, never pull back the fan box, and then forcibly push the fan box in position. If you feel much larger resistance when the distance between the handle and the subrack is longer than 6 mm, take out the fan box, and check that there is no object on the rail and that the rail is not distorted.
When pushing in the fan box, be careful of your hands.

(1) Auto-lock set
Figure 8-4 structure of the fan box
Note: The procedure of removing the fan box is the reverse of the installation procedure. For there is no power switch on fan box, the fan runs right after the cabinet powers on. So that, when removing the fan box, first pull it out a little bit (30 mm) to detach the fan from the socket, and then remove it after the fan stops running to protect your fingers.

8.6 Installing Boards in Baseband Subrack and RF Subrack

8.6.1 Installation Guide
The boards in baseband subrack include NDLP, NULP, NMPT, NDTI, NAOI and NMON. It is necessary to set the DIP switches on NDTI and NAOI before installing NDTI and NAOI. Besides, it is also necessary to set the sockets on E1 lightning protection boards on cabinet top. The boards in RF subrack include NIFP, NTRX and NDDL. It is necessary to set the jumpers on NRFB before installing those boards. Besides, it needs to connect the RF jumpers on the panel of NDDLs. For detail about the connection, refer to Chapter 9 Installing External Cables. The installation method and procedure of all the boards are the same. This section instructs the setting of DIP switches on NDTI and NAOI, the setting of sockets on E1 lightning protection board and the jumpers on NRFB, and then the installation procedure of boards.
8.6.2 Setting DIP Switches on NDTI

There are two modes of the interconnection of E1/T1 trunk cables between NodeB and RNC:
z z
Balanced interconnection Unbalanced interconnection
Both modes entail setting of the DIP switches on NDTI/NAOI and the sockets on E1 lightning protection board. Table 8-2 lists the relationship between the interconnection modes, the matched impedance and the grounding states. Table 8-2 Relationship between interconnection modes, matched impedance and grounding states Interconnection mode Balanced interconnection Unbalanced interconnection Matched impedance 120 , 100 75 Grounding state The Tx and Rx ports of the E1/T1 cables are not grounded. The Tx ports of the E1 cables are grounded, while the Rx ports are not.
There are nine DIP switches on NDTI. Table 8-3 lists their functions.

8.6.4 Setting Sockets on E1 Lightning Protection Board

It is necessary to set the E1 lightning protection board to realize the grounding states of the Rx and Tx ends of E1/T1 links. Figure 8-5 shows the two E1 lightning protection boards.
8-9
Figure 8-5 E1 lightning protection board on cabinet top J4 is used to set the grounding status of the Tx ends of E1/T1 links while J5 to set that of the Rx ends of E1/T1 links. J4 and J5 are both DB25 male sockets. For unbalanced interconnection, Tx is grounded and Rx is not grounded. So that, J4 connects with the plug, and J5 does not. For balanced interconnection, Tx and Rx are not grounded. So that, J4 and J5 both does not connect with the plugs.
8.6.5 Setting NRFB Jumpers

Before installing boards and modules into the RF subrack, set the jumpers in the front side (where boards are to be inserted) of the RF backplane. Figure 8-6 shows the jumpers.

Follow the specifications below when installing the PGND cables:
z
Connect the protection grounding cable, the work grounding cable and the DC grounding cable of NodeB to one grounding conductor. Make sure that the NodeB is less than 30m from customer grounding bar and the shorter the better. If it is over 30m, ask the customer to install a new grounding bar nearby.
Do not lead the grounding cable into the equipment room overhead. Bury the cables completely or lay them indoors. Make sure that the grounding cables from the cabinet to the lighting arrester are over 50mm2 in sectional area. Keep the external conductor of the coaxial cable and both ends of the shielding layer of the shielded cable in good electric contact with the external case of the equipment connected.
Keep the connection points at both ends of the grounding cable in good electric contact and anti-rust protection. Do not lay the leading wire of grounding cables in parallel to or together with signal lines to minimize the mutual interference. For the grounding conductor, apply a copper conductor to reduce the highfrequency impedance. The grounding cables must be as thick and short as possible.

9.6.2 Installing Trunk Cables at Cabinet Top

E1 trunk cables connect to the DB25 connector of E1 cable at the cabinet top (refer to Figure 9-1 for the top view). There are four DB25 connectors of E1 cable in total, numbered as E1/T1_0, E1/T1_1, E1/T1_2 and E1/T1_3. The DB25 connectors E1/T1_0 and E1/T1_1 are for the E1 cables from the first NDTI while E1/T1_2 and E1/T1_3 for those from another one. Install the E1 trunk cables as follows: 1) Plug the DB25 male connector of the E1 trunk cable to the DB25 female socket on the E1 lightning protection board.
9-15
2) 3)
Tighten the two screws on the connector. Label the E1 trunk cable. For details about the labeling specification, refer to Appendix C Engineering Labels for Cables.
Caution: Stick labels for trunk cables at the places 20 to 50mm from the ends of an E1 cable.
The installation of trunk cables at cabinet top completes.
9.6.3 Interconnection to Opposite Terminal

The principles of interconnecting the E1 trunk cables of BTS3812 and those of opposite equipments are as follows:
z z z
The TX of E1 of BTS3812 should connect to the RX of E1 of opposite terminal. The RX of E1 of BTS3812 should connect to the TX of E1 of opposite terminal. The connections between E1s of BTS3812 with E1s of opposite terminal depend on the specific data configuration. To connect a 75: coaxial cable with a 120: twisted pair cable, use an adapter or a patch cord to realize the conversion of the impedance and then the interconnection.
9.6.4 Laying Trunk Cables

I. Laying principle
Follow the principles below when laying the trunk cables:
z z
The outdoor overhead cabling is not allowed. If outdoor cabling is necessary, route the cables through a metal tube under the ground, and ground the metal tube at both ends. If outdoor cabling is necessary and underground cabling is possible, then route the cables through a soft metal tube for shield purpose, and ground the soft metal tube at both ends (for example, connect to the grounding bar in the equipment room). Or the cable should have metal sheathes which should be grounded at both ends (for example, connect to the grounding bar in the equipment room).
Ground free line pairs in the transmission cable. For example, the cores and screen layer of the E1 trunk cable that are not in use can be combined and
9-16
connected to a metal plate, which is further connected to the protection grounding bar in the equipment room.
z
The cabling route of transmission cables should not intercross with those of power cables, grounding cables and feeders. When routing the transmission cables in parallel with those of power cables, grounding cables or feeders, keep them at least 30 mm apart. Keep the cable layout neat. Use cable ties to bind the cables when needed. Keep the radius of any bent 20 times larger than the diameter of the very cable.
z z
II. Layout of Trunk Cables above Cabinet

E1 trunk cables are led out from the DB25 connector at the cabinet top to the cabling racks above the cabinet. They are routed along and bound to the cabling racks neatly and nicely, as shown in Figure 9-14.

9.7 Installing Fibers

9.7.1 Introduction to Fibers
When configured with NAOI or NIFP, fibers are adopted. Fibers are installed in the front of the NAOI and NIFP via LC connectors. The LC connector is shown in Figure 9-15.
9-17
Figure 9-15 LC connector Either single mode fibers or multimode fibers can be used. The former have yellow PVC coats and the latter have orange coats.
9.7.2 Installation Specification

Follow the specifications below when install fibers:
z
When unpacking fibers, site engineers should check the sorts, types and quantities of fibers according to the packing list inside the carton and classify the fibers according to their installation position to facilitate the subsequent installation.
Before installation, check whether there is any fold or impression on the fiber bodies or broken connectors. If so, do not use the fibers any more and replace the fibers.
Before installation, check whether the connectors of fibers are dirty. If so, clean the connectors using dust-free cloth or fiber clearing box. For details, refer to Appendix D Cleaning of Optical Fiber Connector.
Do not stretch or press the fibers. Keep them away from any sharp object to avoid any damage. Never look at the end face of a fiber without any protection to the eyes when the fiber has connected to the optical equipment to avoid eye hurt. Cover open fiber connectors with dustproof caps. Make sure that the bending radius of the optical fibers should be no shorter than 20 times of the fiber diameter to avoid any bending damage. Fill soft materials such as fireproof cottons in the optical fiber interface against damages.
z z

Install the fibers at cabinet side as follows: 1) 2) Select a fiber with right length and matching sort and type. Paste temporary labels to the fibers.
9-18
Note: The label content can either be the same as that on the official labels or be customized.
3)
Coat the fibers with PVC ripple pipes.
Note:
z z
Place the fibers on a slope and then coat the fibers with PVC ripple pipes. Do not nip the pipes optionally because exposed fibers may be damaged. If have to, wrap the cut with insulating tape against damages to the fibers.
4) 5)
Lay the fibers to the cabinet. For details about the laying requirements, refer to 9.7.4 Laying Fiber. Lead the fibers into the cabinet through the fiber interface (with Fibre as the silk screen) at the top of cabinet, and wire the fibers along the side wall to the wiring channel between the baseband subrack and the RF subrack. Then lead the fibers to the front of the NAOI or NIFP, as shown in Figure 9-16.

The installation of fibers at cabinet side completes.
9.7.4 Laying Fibers

Follow the principles below when lay the fibers:
z
Do not stretch or press the fibers, and keep them away from any sharp object to avoid any damage. When lay the fibers outside the cabinet, coat the fibers with PVC ripple pipes to protect the fibers. When lay the fibers outside the cabinet, coil the extra optical fibers onto the special equipment such as optical fiber coiler. Coil the fibers carefully without any fold or bend. Make sure that the bending radius of the optical fibers should be no shorter than 20 times of the fiber diameter to avoid any bending damage.

II. Procedure of Power-on Check of cabinet

The procedure is as follows: 1) 2) 3) 4) Make sure that the output voltage of the PDF is within the range of -40 V to -60 V. Keep the power switches OFF both on the PDU (NBBU and NRFU) and on the panels of all NLPAs. Power on the cabinet. Measure the output voltage of cabinet. Check whether the voltage is normal, and check whether the fans are in normal operation. If normal: the power-on checking of cabinet completes, go on with the power-on checking of board. If abnormal: go to next step. 5) 6) 7) Cut off the power supply to the cabinet by turning off the switch in PDF. Check the output voltage of the PDF, the installation and layout of the power cables to clear the faults. Go to step 1) to perform the checking again. If everything is normal, go on with the power-on check of boards.
11-5
11.4.2 Power-on Check of Boards
Caution:
z
For the power-on check of boards, install one board in a subrack and give the power-on check to this board. After confirming the board is normally powered on, you can install and check the rest boards. If all the boards are installed before the check, it is suggested to leave only one board installed in the subrack and pull the others off the backplane, that is, still in slot, but off the backplane.
The procedure is as follows. 1) 2) 3) Confirm there is only one board installed in a subrack and the others are off the backplane. Turn on the switch of the baseband subrack (NBBU) on the power switch box. Observe whether the indicator on the switch box is normal and whether all the indicators on the board are ON at first and then become OFF immediately. If the indicator on PDU is abnormal: the power supply to the subrack is abnormal, it is recommended to cut down the power supply, clear the faults and power on again following the above steps. If the indicator on PDU is normal and board indicators light up first and then go out: the power supply to the board is normal, but the board is not installed tightly. Turn to step 4). If the indicator on PDU is normal and board indicators are in other states: the power supply to the board is normal, but the board has been installed tightly. Go to step 7). 4) 5) Fasten the captive screws on the board or reinstall the board. After you install the board tightly, all the indicators light up in three seconds, and do not go out. When the board is normal, install the other boards in the baseband subrack.
Note: All the boards support hot plugging.
6)
Observe the status of the indicators on the other boards. Check that the boards have been installed tightly. The methods of checking and handling are the same as those in steps 3) and 4).
7)
Perform the power-on check on boards in the RF subrack in the same way when all the boards in the baseband subrack are normal.
11-6
Note: For the NDDLs in the RF subrack, if they are not tightly installed, all the indicators will light up at first and then go out except the indicator RUN.
8) 9)
Turn on the power switches on the panels of all NLPAs in sequence after all the boards in the baseband subrack and the RF subrack are powered on normally. Observe whether the NLPAs are powered on normally. If not normally: turn off the power switch on the NLPA and then reinstall it. When making sure the NLPA has been well installed, turn on the power switch on it. If normally: the power-on check of boards completes.
11.5 Checking Equipment Room Sanitation

Table 11-4 lists the check items for the equipment room sanitation. Table 11-4 Check items for equipment room sanitation Serial No. 1 2 3 Check item No packing boxes or boards are random placed in the equipment room. No cable ties or other sundries are on the floor or in the cabinets. There are no fingerprints or other smudge on the cabinet surfaces.

Appendix A
1)
Insert the core wires into the wire inlets of the terminal crimping tubing until they cannot be pushed any further. After this, the core wires protrude out 2 to 3 mm longer than the terminal, as shown in Figure A-4.
2)
Before crimping the wiring terminal, place the cable in the connection position so that the contact surface of the wiring terminal is parallel to the bus bar of the power supply. If they are not parallel, hold the end of the terminal using the pliers to adjust it.
3) 4)
During crimping, use the mold of the corresponding cross section. Figure A-5 shows the molds of the four types of power cables. To ensure the reliability of electrical connection, crimp the terminals in the way as shown in Figure A-6.

When the round communication cable and the flat telephone line are stripped, make sure that the end of the sheath should be neatly stripped and the cutting angle should be vertical to the cable. Do not damage the shielding layer around a shielded cable when stripping the cable sheath. After the stripping, fold the shielding layer back to the root of the cable sheath as shown in Figure B-3. The core wires should be cut neatly, especially for the round communication cable. Spread the core wires evenly apart and cut them neatly with the cutting tool, as shown in Figure B-4. The length of the truncated cable should comply with the requirements shown in Figure B-4, that is, either the round communication cable or the flat telephone core wire should be L in length.

B.2.3 Wire Insertion and Assembly

I. For 8-Core Flat Telephone Line
Insert the 8-core flat telephone line from the end of the RJ45 connector until the connector butts against the external protection layer of the cable. Each core wire should be inserted along the trough of the RJ45 connector to the end of the connector, so that the core wires and the RJ45 connector end are flush, as shown in Figure B-5.
B-2
II. For Round Communication Cables

Round communication cables should be inserted into the connector in the same way mentioned above. The core wire end should be flush so that it is easy to be put in position.
III. For Shielded Cables and Shielded Connector

Wires in a shielded cable should also be inserted into the connector in the same way, with the folded shielding layer contacting the built-in shielding piece at the tail of the RJ45 connector and butting against point A of the connector. See Figure B-5.

Caution:
z
During the crimping, place the RJ45 connector in the proper trough of the crimping pliers and crimp it as required. Make sure that the connector is fully crimped. After the crimping, the metal blade should be lower than the top surface of the RJ45 connector. When crimping a RJ45 connector onto a shielded cable, make sure that metal cutters in the connector are crimped in position and that the built-in shielding piece of the connector securely contacts the shielding layer of the cable.
B.2.5 Checking
I. Outer Appearance Inspection
Any cable with visible defects, such as breakage or crack on the connector shell or to the lock piece or cable out of position, is a reject.
II. Wire Order Check

Any cable whose wire crimping order does not satisfy the design requirements is a reject.
III. Continuity Check

The continuity ratio should be 100% and the wires should not be short-circuited. Otherwise, the cable is a reject.
B-4
Caution: As to the shielded cable assembled with the shielded RJ45 connectors, check the continuity between the shielding shell of the connector and the shielding layer of the cable. Any cable without such continuity is a reject.

C.2.3 Printing Labels

The contents can be printed or written on the labels. Printing is recommended for the sake of high efficiency and eye-pleasant layout.
I. Template for Printing

The Word-form template is available for label printout. You can download the template from http://tech-support.huawei.com/asp/comm/index.asp (path: //support/technical document/project management/installation and maintenance/document/others), or get the template from Huawei local office. When using the template, you can directly modify the contents on the template. Be sure to observe the following rules:
z z
The settings of centered characters, direction, and fonts should not be changed. When there are too many characters to be filled in, zoom out the characters, but make sure that the printouts are clear and legible.
II. Cells Merging on the Template

The procedure to merge the cells is as follows: 1) 2) 3) 4) Recover the table structure (if gridlines are displayed, you can start from Step 3) directly). Click [Edit/Select All]. Click [Format/Borders and Shading/Borders]. Select Box and click <OK>. Drag the mouse to select the cells to be merged and click [Table/Merge Cells].
C-3
If two merged cells are still not enough to accommodate the characters, use multiple lines.
III. Requirements on the Printer

To print the labels, a laser jet printer must be used, although there is no restriction on the model of the printer. Before printing the label, set up the page and try the printing on ordinary blank paper (both sides are blank): 1) 2) 3) Cover the blank paper onto the whole page of label paper, and check that the page setup conforms to the requirement. Make sure the printer properties, such as "paper size" and direction, have been set correctly. If the warning prompt as shown in Figure C-3 appears before printing, click <Ignore> to continue the printing.
Figure C-3 Warning prompt before printing If the printout confoms to the requiremnt, print it to label paper. If the printout does not conform, adjust the page setup and try the printing again, until the correct printout is produced. The method of adjusting the page setup is as follows: 4) 5) 6) 7) Click [File/Page Setup]. Select the Margins tab page. Select Left for Gutter Position. Set Header and Footer as 0, and adjust the values of Top, Bottom, Left, and Right. When the page setup is correct, save it for future use. This page setup is only necessary in the first time you use the template to print the labels.
IV. Requirements on Feeding the Printer

Different from the ordinary paper, the label paper is composed of two pages. No matter what model of printer you are using, feed in the labels one after another by hand. Never use the auto-feed mode to avoid jamming the labels. Different models of printers may have different feeding modes. Make sure to feed in the labels correctly.
V. Requirements on Printed Labels

Make sure the printed labels satisfy the following requirements:
C-4

z
All the printouts must be on the label, and nothing should be printed on the bottom page of the label. Contents in the cells should be aligned in the center. In a single-line printout, the dividing lines and the mark TO should not be covered by the printed characters. When the cells are merged and the printouts are made in multiple lines, avoid covering the mark TO when printing the texts by using the space bar to move the printing contents to the next line.
C.2.4 Writing Labels

Use the black oiliness markers delivered together with the device to write the labels. In special cases, black ball-pens are allowed, although not recommended. When writing with the ball-pen, take care not to leave the oil on the label, which may contaminate the label and blur the words..
Note: The delivered marker has two nibs. Be sure to use the smaller nib to write the labels.
For the sake of easy recognition and good looking, the font in handwriting should be close to the standard typeface as much as possible. Table C-1 shows the standard typeface. Table C-1 Standard typeface for handwriting 0 9 I R 1 A J S 2 B K T 3 C L U 4 D M V 5 E N W 6 F O X 7 G P Y 8 H Q Z

C.2.5 Affixing Labels

After printing or writing the label, remove the label from the bottom page and affix it to signal cables, or the identification plate of the power cable.
I. Affixing Label to Signal Cable

The steps to affix the label to the cable are shown in Figure C-5, Figure C-6 and Figure C-7. The finished labels should be on the right or top of the cables, according to different cabling methods. The left part of the figures shows the method to affix the label when the cable is laid vertically, while the right part of the figures shows the method to affix the label when the cable is laid horizontally. Affix the label 2 cm from the connector on the signal cable. In special cases, for example, to avoid cable bent or affecting other cables, you can affix the label at other positions. 1) Stick the label to a proper position on the cable. Fold the narrow part of the label according to the directions shown in Figure C-5.

II. Affixing Label to Power Cable

Remove the label from the bottom page, then affix it to the identification plate on the cable tie. The label should be stuck to the rectangular flute, and should be stuck to only one side of the identification plate. Make sure to affix the labels on the same side of the identification plates. The cable ties are bundled at 2 cm from the connectors, and other positions are allowed in special circumstances. Cable ties should be bundled on both ends of a cable. After the bundling, the finished identification plate should be on top of the cable in horizontal cabling, or on the right side of the cable in vertical cabling. Make sure the label is facing out, as shown in Figure C-8.

C.2.6 Information Carried on Labels

I. For Power Cables
Affix labels for power cables on one side of the identification plates. On the labels, there is information (the part after the mark TO:) about the location of the device at the other end of the cable, such as the location of the control cabinet, distribution box or power socket.
II. For Signal Cables

The two sides of the label affixed on the signal cable carry information about the location of the ports connected to both ends of the cable, as shown in Figure C-9. The information is given like this:
z z
Area 1 contains the location information of this end of the cable. Area 2 (with the mark "TO:") contains the location information of the other end of the cable. Area 3 has been folded up inside the label.
Area 1 Area 3

Area 2
Seen from the cabling end of the equipment, the text part of the label is on the right side of the cable. The side with TO: that is facing outside carries the location information of the opposite end; and the other side carries the location information of the local end. Therefore, the information in Area 1 at one end is the same as the information in Area 2 at the other end of the cable, and vice versa. In other words, the local information at one end is the opposite information at the other end.
C.2.7 Points for Attention

z z
When printing/writing and affixing labels, keep the labels clean. Because the label paper is made of moistureproof and waterproof material, ink-jet printers and ink pens are forbidden for printing and writing labels. Labels should be affixed with good order in alignment. Cable ties should bundle power cables in the same position, with identification plates on the same side. The positions of up, down, right or left are all based on the viewpoint of the one working on the label.

C.3 Engineering Labels for Optical Fibers

These labels are affixed to the optical fibers that connect the optical interfaces on the boards in a subrack, or on the device boxes. There are two types of labels for optical fibers: One is for the fiber that connects the optical interfaces on two devices. The other is for the fiber that connects the device and the Optical Distribution Frame (ODF).
C.3.1 Labels for the Fiber that Connects Two Devices

I. Meaning of the Label

C.4 Engineering Labels for Trunk Cables

There are two types of labels for trunk cables. One type applies to the trunk cable connecting two devices, such as the trunk board and built-in transmission unit, or two trunk boards. The other type applies to the trunk cable connecting the device and the Digital Distribution Frame (DDF). The trunk cables include 75/120 E1 cables, clock cables.

C.5 Engineering Labels for Power Cables

C.5.1 Labels for DC Power Cables
The labels apply to the DC cables that provide power for the cabinets, and the protection grounding cables, including the -48V, PGND, and BGND cables. The labels for DC power cables are on one side of the identification plates on cable ties.

Table C-6 shows the information carried on the labels for the DC power cables:
C-14
Table C-6 Information on labels affixed to the DC power cables Content MN(BC)--48V1 MN(BC)--48V2 MN(BC)-BGND MN(BC)-PGND MN (BC): BC is right under MN. On the loaded cabinet side, MN alone can identify the cabinet. On the power cabinet side, MN identifies the row and column number of the power distribution equipment like the control cabinet and distribution box, BC identifies the row and column number of the -48V connecter (if there is no row number or column number, or the connecter can be identified without them, BC can be omitted). BGND and PGND have no row and column number for identification. Meaning
The label only carries location information about the opposite equipment, the control cabinet or the distribution box, while information of the local end is not necessary. Table C-6 lists the information of two -48 V power supplies on the label. The information of other DC voltages (such as 24 V and 60 V) is similar.

Be sure to affix labels in a correction direction. That is, make sure that the identification plates with the labels face outwards when bundling the cables with cable ties. Make sure that the text on the labels in a cabinet are in the same direction, as shown in Figure C-14.

Figure C-14 Example of the labels on the DC power cable In Figure C-14, (1) indicates the label on the loaded cabinet side, which carries the information about the position of the cable on the power distribution box. (2) indicates the label on the distribution box side, which carries the information about the position of the cable on the loaded cabinet side. On the loaded cabinet side, the label marked with A01/B08--48V2 on the cable indicates that the cable is -48V2 DC supply, which is from the 8th connecter on the second row of -48V bus bar in the cabinet on Row A, and Column 1 in the equipment room.
C-15
On the distribution box side, the label marked with B03--48V2 indicates that the cable is -48V2 DC supply, which is from the loaded cabinet on Row B, Column 03 in the equipment room.
Note:
z
In the power distribution box (or the first power cabinet of a row in the transmission equipment room), every terminal block on the -48V connector bar has a numeric identification. For example, in the above label of A01/B08--48V2, 08 (or sometimes 8) is the numeric identification of the terminal block.
PGND and BGND are two copper bars, on which the terminal blocks are short-circuited, therefore which terminal is connected makes no difference. It is only necessary to give the row and column of the power distribution box, instead of giving the specific serial number of the terminal block on the copper bar. For example, if the label on the loaded cabinet side is A01-BGND, it means that the power cable is a BGND that connects BGND copper bar in the power distribution box on Row A, Column 01 in the equipment room. The information on the labels for PGND cables is similar.

Never allow any bending smaller than 90. Coil up extra fibers into a round or into an upside-down 8. Never wind them around each other. Never apply more than 1 kg axial tension. Never hang anything on only a fiber. Never apply any impulse force to the axis. Protect the optical fibers from crush. Never place any optical fiber in a circumstance higher than 85 C.
z z z
II. Laser Safety

Never look at the port of an optical fiber directly lest the laser might injure eyes.

Appendix D
D.5.4 Cleaning of Optical Fiber Interface on Optical Sub-board

I. Matter need attention
Keep the optical sub-board under antistatic protection when cleaning an optical fiber interface on the sub-board. There are many electrostatic sensitive devices on an optical sub-board. Take strict antistatic measures to protect the devices from electrostatic charges, such as wear a reliably grounded antistatic wrist strap and work on an antistatic floor and table.
II. Cleaning
The cleaning procedure is as follows: 1) 2) 3) Use a pair of special pliers to pull the optical fiber connector out of the optical sub-board. Clean it like a common optical fiber connector, as shown in Figure D-3 and Figure D-4. Restore the optical fiber connector in the optical sub-board.
