viii UltraWAVE BTS Installation and Commissioning Guide, Release 6.5A

Welcome!

Welcome to the UltraWAVE BTS Installation and Commissioning Guide. This guide is written to provide
the user with installation guidelines and procedures which will be required to set-up and initially
configure the BTS.

Assumptions, Purpose, and Audience

This document is intended for an interWAVE trained field service engineer (FSE) or operator who
performs local installation and commissioning at a customer sit e. The FSE or operator should be
equipped with the necessary tools for installation and commissioning, and a basic understanding of the
GSM cellular network. The FSE or Operator should also be familiar with the use of Craft PC and
procedures conducted using the Craft PC.

interWAVE assumes that pre-installation project planning has occurred, and is documented via a site
survey report. This site survey should include items such as the location of antennas, chassis, power
connections and other interface accesses and temperature control equipment.

Preface

Microwave Radio Radiation Warning

Although interWAVE prod ucts do not u se microwave ra dio antennas , the equi pment is o ften mounted in
the vicinity of microwave radio antennas. Under normal operating conditions, microwave radio
equipment complies with the limits for human exposure to radio frequency (RF) fields adopted by the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC). All interWAVE Communications, Inc. microwave radio
equipment is designed so that under normal working conditions, microwave radiation directly from the
radio is negligible when compared w it h the permissible limit of continuo us daily exposure
recommended in the United States by ANSI/IEEE C95 .1-1991 (R1997), Safety Levels with Respect to
Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.

Microwave signal levels that give rise to hazardous radiation levels can exist within transmitter power
amplifiers, associated RF multi plex ers, and antenna systems.

Never look into the open end of a waveguide or any other open RF
connection as eyes are particularly vulnerable to radiation. Do not
disconnect RF coaxial conn ecto r s, op en mi cro w ave un its, or break down
any microwave screening while the radio equipment is operating.

1-4 Internal Cabling Overview

Cabling inside the BTS cabinet i s routed to connectors accessible on the outside of the cabinet
assembly. The internal cabling connects the E1 or T1 card to the external interface cable plate interface.
Antenna connections are also routed interna lly to provide an N-type connector on the top of the
cabinet.

The internal cabling of the BTS depends on the configur ation ordered by th e c ustomer. It is completed
by the manufacturer. Due to its complexity, it is not recommended for you to move or disconnect
internal cabling. Schematics of the int er nal RF cabling are provided in Appendix 1.

Extreme care should be used when working around SMA cables, as
misalignment or loosening of the cable with the connectors can
damage both parts and degrade the cable's performance.

Proceed to Chapter Two to install your BTS.

2-3 Configuring the E1 or T1 Trunk Card

This section describes how to configure E1 or T1 trunk cards.
These procedures designed for E1 or T1 cards that are shipped pre-configured in a system. To

configure E1 or T1 card s that a re ship ped as confi gured or unconfigured replacements, see Ap pendix 1.
Your system is shipped from the manufacturer configured with the correct cards for your site-specific

application. These can be 100 Ohm T1, 75 Ohm E1, or 120 Ohm E1. All cards are shipped with th e
appropriate connectors.

Cable runs of greater than 600 meters (1968 feet) are not supported
directly from the card. If you are attempting a longer cable run between
interWAVE chassis please contact Customer Service to determine if you
need a repeater for your application.

Table 2-5 list s the cards and the procedures that apply to each card type.

Table 2-5 Trunk Cards and Procedures

Label Description Operation

75 Ohm 75 Ohm E1 board

120 Ohm 120 Ohm E1 Board No configuration is required

100 Ohm 100 Ohm T1 Board

Set the ground to the Transmit or Receive side
using the jumpers. See Section 2-3.1

Configure the DIP switch based on cable length
to the DSX-1 demarcation point. See
Section 2-3.2.

NOTE: No configuration is required unless

connecting to a DSX1 demarcation point greater
than 133 ft.

2-3.1 Configure Ground Jumpers on 75 Ohm E1 Cards

Two types of dual port 75-Ohm E1 cards exist. They are differentiated only by their connector types—
either BNC or RJ-45 — on the front pa nel of the card.

1 Open the front cabinet door and locate the 75 Ohm E1 card in the baseband subrack

assembly.

2 Identify your E1 card and proceed to the appropriate subsection. For RJ-45 cards, continue

with the procedure below. For BNC cards, proceed to “BNC Connector Cards” on page 22.
