ADMONISHMENTS

Important safety admonishments are used throughout this manual to warn of possible hazards to persons or equipment. An admonishment identifies a possible hazard and then explains what may happen if the hazard is not avoided. The admonishments — in the form of Dangers, Warnings, and Cautions — must be followed at all times.

These warnings are flagged by use of the triangular alert icon (seen below), and are listed in descending order of severity of injury or damage and likelihood of occurrence.

Danger: Danger is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will cause severe personal injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.

Warn ing: Warning is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that can cause severe personal injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.

Caution: Caution is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will or can cause minor personal injury or property damage if the hazard is not avoided.

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Warn ing: Wet conditions increase the potential for receiving an electrical shock when installing or using electrically-powered equipment. To prevent electrical shock, never install or use electrical equipment in a wet location or during a lightning storm.

Danger: This equipment uses a Class 1 Laser according to FDA/CDRH rules. Laser radiation can seriously damage the retina of the eye. Do not look into the ends of any optical fiber. Do not look directly into the optical transceiver of any digital unit or exposure to laser radiation may result. An optical power meter should be used to verify active fibers. A protective cap or hood MUST be immediately placed over any radiating transceiver or optical fiber connector to avoid the potential of dangerous amounts of radiation exposure. This practice also prevents dirt particles from entering the adapter or connector.

Caution: This system is a RF Transmitter and continuously emits RF energy. Maintain 3 foot (91.4 cm) minimum clearance from the antenna while the system is operating. Wherever possible, shut down the RAN before servicing the antenna.

Caution: Always allow sufficient fiber length to permit routing of patch cords and pigtails without severe bends. Fiber optic patch cords or pigtails may be permanently damaged if bent or curved to a radius of less than 2 inches (5.1 cm).

Caution: Exterior surfaces of the RAN may be hot. Use caution during servicing.

SAFE WORKING DISTANCES

The Digivance NXD antenna, which is mounted on top of a pole, radiates radio frequency energy.

For the occupational worker, safe working distance from the antenna depends on the workers location with respect to the antenna and the number of wireless service providers being serviced by that antenna.

Emission limits are from OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01, Table 1 A.

STANDARDS CERTIFICATION

1 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

This section describes the Digivance Neutral Host (NXD) Radio Access Node (RAN).

1.1 General Description

The RAN, shown in Figure 1, is the remote component in the Digivance NXD Multi-Band Distributed Antenna System. The RAN is a pole-mounted or pad-mounted, weather-resistent cabinet, housing electronic modules that operate on an internal cPCI backplane. Included are a central processing unit, a system interface, an optical interface, optical to RF data converters, RF multicouplers, and DC power supplies. The RAN also houses rectifiers, backup batteries, power amplifiers, and optical wave division multiplexers. Optical and RF functions are both required because the RAN exchanges data with the system Hub using an optical link and exchanges data with wireless users using RF signals. Each RAN provides the system with an RF antenna and can accommodate up to four bands ( RANs installed at the same location can accommodate up to eight bands using a common antenna.

1.2 System Function

The NXD Distributed Antenna System (DAS), in which the RAN is the remote component, is a multi-frequency, multi-protocol RF access network providing microcellular Cellular and PCS coverage via a distributed RF access system. In a typical configuration, such as shown in

Figure 2, multiple RANs are connected to a central Hub where multiple Base Transceiver

Station (BTS) interfaces are located. Signals received at the Hub are distributed to the RANs in digital form by way of a fiber optical link. Within the RANs, the signals are converted from digital to RF format to be transmitted from the RAN antennas. Signals also travel in a reverse direction, from the RANs to the Hub, with a reverse data conversion.

Physically, the DAS consists primarily of electronic modules located in the Hub and RANs. At the Hub, these modules are mounted in an equipment rack typically housed in a common telecommunications structure with the base station electronics for Wireless Service Providers (WSPs), either in the same room or nearby. These modules include high power attenuators, base station modules, a power distribution unit, an Ethernet hub, a Hub reference module, an RF chassis, and one or more digital chassis. The RAN electronic modules, mounted in the RAN cabinet, perform the remote system functions of optical to RF data conversion and RF access. These modules are described in subsequent topics within this product description. Digivance Element Management System (EMS) software, running on a computer located at the Hub, provides a graphical user interface to monitor system performance.

1.6 RAN Cabinet

The RAN cabinet is a NEMA-3R enclosure designed to protect its electronic components from weather and human tampering. The cabinet is weather-tight but contact with salt-air mist should be avoided as it may decrease the mean time between failure of some components. The cabinet has ventilation openings to allow entry of cool air and escape of hot air. The cabinet provides

Page 8

Page 21

ADCP-75-210 • Issue 1 • March 2007

termination points for the coaxial antenna cable, fiber optic cable, ground cable, and AC cable. The cabinet has inbuilt AC power surge protection and limited storage for fiber optic cables.

1.6.1 Mounting

The RAN cabinet may be mounted on a wood pole or on a concrete pad. Mounting bracket kits (available from ADC) are required for each type of installation.

1.6.2 Fiber Optic Cable Entry

A nylon connector is provided on the rear of the RAN cabinet for routing a fiber optic cable into the cabinet. The cord connector provides cable strain relief and a watertight seal at the fiber optic cable entry point. As the connector nut is tightened, a soft neoprene bushing compresses to tightly grip the cable without applying excessive force to the fibers. The connector accommodates cables of a diameter in the range .38 to .50 inches (.97 to 1.27 cm).

Note: If the installer has a larger cable, the manufacturer (Hubbell Inc.) makes bushings

that fit this connector in the following size ranges: .500-.625, .625-.750, .750-.875, .875-

1.00, 1.00-1.125 inches.

In a typical installation, the connectorized end of a multi-fiber OSP cable is routed into the cabinet through the cord connector and the individual fibers are connected to the optical transceiver on the Synchronous Interface Card (SIF). Excess slack is stored inside the cabinet. The stub end of the cable is routed to an external splice enclosure (not provided) for splicing to the outside plant fiber optic cable.

1.6.3 Antenna Cable Connections

Five N-type plugs are provided on the rear of the RAN cabinet for connecting the antenna coaxial cables. On the inside of the cabinet, coaxial jumper cables (included with the cabinet) are used for connecting to the antenna port on the appropriate multiplexer.

1.6.4 AC Power Wiring Entry and Grounding

The NXD RAN uses 240 VAC power. A one inch (2.54 cm), 90 degree rigid elbow conduit fitting is provided on the rear of the cabinet. The conduit should be routed to an external junction box (not provided). It is suggested that an external AC outlet (not provided) be installed near the cabinet to power test equipment and power tools. The AC source should supply 50/60 Hz, single-phase power through a circuit breaker rated at 20 Amps.

1.6.5 Ventilation

Ventilation openings are provided in the front door of the RAN cabinet to permit entry of air for cooling. A filter removes dirt particles so that only clean air enters the cabinet. The heated air exits the cabinet through the rear side. The four PAAs are each equipped with three cooling fans that pull air through the module and exhaust it to the rear of the cabinet. A fan assembly at the top of the RAN chassis forces the air out the rear side of the cabinet.

1.7 RAN Chassis and Electronic Modules

The RAN chassis, shown in Figure 6, is a standard Compact PCI (cPCI) shelf capable of housing 21 industry standard cPCI circuit cards (called “electronic modules” in this manual). The backplane supports the basic cPCI functions and it has been extended to allow the routing

of DIF cooling fans within the Fan Access Panel on the top of the chassis. Tab le 3 identifies the electronic modules using the callout reference numbers from Figure 6.

Figure 7 is a schematic showing the data flow in the RAN chassis, as represented by the PCS-A

band. As shown, data flows in two directions, from the Hub through the RAN to the antenna, and from the antenna through the RAN back to the Hub. In each direction, data conversion occurs, with optical data “upconverted” to RF data in the up direction in the schematic, and RF data “downconverted” to optical data in the down direction. In an up direction, the RUC module converts Digitized Intermediate Frequency (DIF) data into PCS, Cellular, and SMR frequency RF bands. The RF signals are amplified and then transmitted from the RF antenna. In the down direction, the RDC module converts PCS, Cellular, and SMR frequency bands into DIF data. The overall series of events is managed by the CPU using an Ethernet connection to the chassis backplane.

1.9 Power Amplifier Assembly

The Power Amplifier Assembly (PAA) is an electronic device that amplifies RF signals in the forward path just before they are transmitted to the RAN antenna. Up to four PAAs may be mounted in the RAN, each providing one band. Each PAA consists of a Power Amplifier (PA), a control board called the PA Interface Controller (PIC), and a cooling system. The PA is multichannel. Different units are used for PCS, Cellular, and SMR 800 bands.

The PIC interfaces to the discrete signals of the PA. The PIC also provides DC power to the PA by converting from -48 VDC to +12 VDC or +28 VDC depending upon which PA is being used. Each PA has its own PIC. The PIC is managed is managed by the CPU over an I2C connection through its corresponding RUC. The cooling system consists of a heat sink and three fans that provide cooling for the PA by blowing external air across the heat sink. The fans are softwarecontrolled. The PIC module monitors the tachometer outputs of the fan.

Figure 20 shows the PA assembly connection points and indicators. Tabl e 14 describes the items

called out in the figure.

1.10 Multiplexer System

The NXD RAN multiplexer system consists of four units that interface to the antenna, PAs, and multicouplers:

• Quadplexer Primary (PCS Bands A, B, F), interfaces to PCS primary antenna;

• Quadplexer Diversity (PCS Bands D, E, C), interfaces to PCS diversity antenna;

• Triplexer Primary, either of two types:

– Type one (Cellular Band B, SMR800 Band), interfaces to 800 MHz primary antenna;

– Type two (SMR800 Band, SMR900 Band), interfaces to 800 MHz primary antenna;

• Diplexer Diversity (Cellular Band A), interfaces to 800 MHz diversity antenna.

For a schematic of the PCS multiplexers, see Figure 21. For a schematic of the Cellular/SMR multiplexers, see Figure 22 (showing Cellular B, SMR800 triplexer) or Figure 23 (showing SMR800, SMR900 triplexer).

1.13 Antenna

ADC provides a pole-mount antenna kit for use when the RAN is mounted on a wooden utility pole. The kit must be separately ordered from the RAN. Pole mounting is the most common type of RAN installation.

The antenna offered interfaces with the PCS and Cellular/SMR bands and supports two branch diversity receive paths. Also included in the kit is the GPS antenna used by the RAN.

The RAN may also be mounted outdoors on a concrete pad. This type of installation may use a conventional directional antenna in either a sector or quasi-omni antenna configuration, depending on the coverage objective and design. Proper antenna selection and the mounting installation are the responsibility of the design engineer.

Antenna installation is covered in separate publications, available for downloading from the ADC web site, www.adc.com. Refer to RELATED PUBLICATIONS on Page vii.

• Extended Batteries: provide backup protection for up to two hours. These are four 12V,

85-100 AH internal batteries connected in series for a -48V system. The four batteries together with associated wiring and hardware weigh 325 pounds (147.7 kg).

• Glitch Batteries: provide backup protection for up to five minutes. These are small,

motorcycle type batteries connected in a series configuration.

ADCP-75-210 • Issue 1 • March 2007

2 STANDARD INSTALLATION PROCEDURES

This section provides the standard procedures for a typical installation. The RAN may be installed either on a wooden pole or on a concrete pad.

This section is organized as follows:

• Sections 2-1 through 2-4 provide information that is relevant before installing the cabinet. These subsections contain an installation overview, unpacking instructions, a list of required material and tools, and site preparation guidelines.

• Section 2-5 tells how to install a cabinet on a wooden utility pole. Included are instructions for installing the pole mount bracket and then installing the cabinet on the bracket. Also included are instructions for installing the rain shields.

• Section 2-6 tells how to install the RAN on a concrete pad. Included are instructions for pouring the concrete pad, mounting the RAN on the pad, and installing the pedestal enclosure.

• Section 2-7 contains other standard procedures typically done at every installation. These procedures describe how to install the solar shield, grounding wire, RF cables, fiber optic cable, AC power, and backup batteries.

Note: Section 3 contains instructions for installing a second RAN at the same location. Section 4 provides information on non-standard installation procedures such as installing an electronic module.

Installation of the RAN cabinet may proceed separately from the installation of the corresponding Hub equipment. When the installation of the RAN is completed, refer to the Digivance NXD Multi-Band Distributed Antenna System Operation Manual (ADCP-75-209) for system turn-up and test procedures.

The procedures in this section assume that the required Outside Plant (OSP) fiber optic cable has already been routed between the Hub and the RAN, that the required antenna has been installed, and that a coaxial cable terminated with an N-type connector has been routed to the RAN from the antenna.

Danger: Wet conditions increase the potential for receiving an electrical shock when installing or using electrically-powered equipment. To prevent electrical shock, never install or use electrical equipment in a wet location or during a lightning storm.

Caution: Always allow sufficient fiber length to permit routing of patch cords and pigtails without severe bends. Some fiber optic patch cords or pigtails may be permanently damaged if bent or curved to a radius of less than 2 inches (50 mm).

2.1 Installation Overview

A standard (typical) installation of the RAN consists of the following steps:

Warn ing: Electronic components can be damaged by static electrical discharge. To prevent ESD damage, always wear an ESD wrist strap when handling electronic components.

Page 30

Page 43

ADCP-75-210 • Issue 1 • March 2007

Note: To insure that all optical connectors and optical ports remain dust-free during installation, leave all dust caps and dust protectors in place until directed to remove them for installation.

1. Checking out and preparing the installation site.

2. Unpacking and inspecting the shipped items.

3. Installing a pole mount frame or pedestal mount.

4. Installing the RAN cabinet on the pole or pad.

The following optional accessories may also be shipped with the RAN:

• Back-up batteries

• Non-standard SFP optical transceiver

Use the following procedure to unpack and inspect the RAN components:

1. Open the shipping cartons and carefully unpack each component from the protective packing material.

2. Check each component for broken or missing parts. If there are damages, contact ADC for an RMA (Return Material Authorization) and to reorder if replacement is required. For contact information, refer to Section 6 on Page 72.

2.3 Required Materials and Tools

• Conduit cutter

• Conduit bender

2.4 Site Preparation

This section describes site preparation for installation and is presented only as a guideline for a typical RAN installation.

2.4.1 Space Requirements

When an installation site for the RAN is selected, either on a utility pole or concrete pad, care must be exercised to ensure that the site provides adequate space and clearance to accommodate the current installation and any future upgrades. Tab le 17 gives RAN dimensions.

Page 32

Page 45

ADCP-75-210 • Issue 1 • March 2007

Table 17. RAN Dimensions

CONFIGURATION WIDTH HEIGHT DEPTH

RAN 31.35 in. (76.7 cm) 36.5 in. (92.7 cm) 27.5 in. (69.9 cm)

Dual RAN 31.25 in. (76.7 cm) 73 in. (185.4 cm) 27.5 in. (69.9 cm)

2.4.2 Power Requirements

Power must be available at the RAN site. The RAN requires 240 VAC, single phase, 20 Amps service. Included with the power meter must be surge protection and circuit breakers.

The RAN can have up to three 1500 watt rectifiers. For the minimum specified voltage (176 VAC), each can draw up to 10 amps. The RAN will draw up to 1800 watts normally, but when batteries are re-charging that amount will increase the current draw into a RAN to up to 16 Amps. Therefore, one 20 Amps service is required per four band RAN.

In a pole mount installation, the power meter is typically installed on the pole below the unit in separate boxes. In a concrete pad installation, an external junction box is typically placed near the RAN providing AC power, surge protection, and circuit breakers.

2.4.3 Antenna Requirement

ADC offers a pole-mount antenna kit (accessory) for use when the RAN is mounted on a wooden utility pole. Either a 2 in. (5.08 cm) O.D. model or a 9 in. (22.86 cm) O.D. model can be ordered. Pole mounting is the most common installation. The antenna interfaces with the PCS and Cellular/SMR bands and supports two branch diversity receive paths. Also included in the kit is the GPS antenna used by the RAN. Installation instructions for the pole mount antenna are included with the kit.

When the RAN is mounted on a concrete pad, a conventional directional antenna may be used (customer supplied). The antenna may be set to operate in either a sector or quasi-omni configuration, depending on the coverage objective and design. Proper antenna selection and the mounting installation are the responsibility of the design engineer.

2.4.4 RF Cable Requirements

RF cables are required at the installation site to provide the physical link between the RAN and the antenna. In a pole-mount installation, U-duct of an appropriate size is also required to cover the RF cables on the pole. The U-duct provides only physical protection. It should not be considered to provide electrical isolation from conductors on the pole. Adequate clearance must be obtained for the routing of these cables past the existing services as defined in the previous topic. In a concrete pad installation, RF cables from the antenna are routed and protected per the installation plan provided by the design engineer.

Page 33

Page 46

ADCP-75-210 • Issue 1 • March 2007

2.4.5 Fiber Requirements

Optical fibers are required at the site to provide the physical link between the RAN and the Hub. In a typical installation, the identified fibers are broken out of a multi-fiber sheath and routed to a splice box where they are spliced to pigtails connecting the main sheath to the RAN. The actual fiber bundle location on the utility pole may vary per the agreed to attachment point. Refer to Figure 25. The nylon cable connector on the rear of the RAN accommodates cables of a diameter in the range .38 to .50 inches (.97 to 1.27 cm). For larger size cables, refer to

Section 1.6.2 on Page 9.

2.5 Installing a RAN Cabinet on a Wooden Utility Pole

Figure 25 shows the main components and their spatial placement in a typical NXD RAN pole

mount installation.

2.5.1 Site Requirements Unique to Pole Mounting Locations

If power lines are present at the top of the pole, spacing requirements applicable to the RF cabling and any other hardware installed in the electric space must be considered. Per the National Electrical Safety Code, vertical clearance at supports for primary-supply conductors above other facilities is required to be 16 in. (40.64 cm) above neutrals and 40 in. (101.6 cm) above communications (60 in. [152.4 cm] if above 8700V).

For supply conductors at voltages up to 8700 between conductors, the minimum horizontal clearance provided by the NESC ANSI C2 is 12 in. (30.5 cm). For higher voltages, it is required that .4 in. (10.2 mm) be added for every 1000V above 8700. Tabl e 18 lists the required clearances for some common high voltages.

2.5.2 Pole Loading Analysis

A pole loading analysis should be performed before the RAN is mounted on the pole to verify that the pole can support the weight of the RAN in various conditions. The analysis should take into account the pole top antenna, the RAN and batteries, and the possibility of an expansion RAN with batteries. Tab le 1 9 lists the weights of various NXD components and configurations.

Page 35

Page 48

ADCP-75-210 • Issue 1 • March 2007

Three load types should be considered: static weight loading, ice loading, and wind loading. These types should be considered on the pole, wires, and any equipment installed on the pole. A qualified engineer should perform the pole loading analysis, taking into account both vertical and horizontal forces. The specified horizontal load is applied 2 ft. (60.1 cm) from the top and the assumption is that the pole acts as a cantilever with maximum stresses applied at the ground level. Table 20 provides acceptable loads by pole class.

The strength of the wood pole is defined in Standard Handbook for Electrical Engineers, 13th Edition, McGraw Hill, Chapter 18, Section 135, “Strength of Wood Poles,” Pages 18-57. The wood pole strength calculation is defined in Standard Handbook for Electrical Engineers, 13th Edition, McGraw Hill, Chapter 18, Section 136, Reference NEC.

2.5.3 Installing the Cabinet Mounting Bracket

The Digivance NXD Wood Pole Mounting Bracket, shown in Figure 26, is an accessory item that is used to attach the Digivance NXD cabinet to a power distribution pole or related object. The bracket is attached to the pole using galvanized steel square head bolts that are attached through holes drilled through the wooden pole. An example of an installed NXD wood pole mounting bracket is shown in Figure 26.

Use the following procedure to install the RAN wood pole mounting bracket:

1. Determine the mounting height of the RAN and mark the pole at the desired location of the base of the RAN.

Note: Install the RAN pole mount bracket on the side of the utility pole assigned by the utility company or required by local zoning.

2.7.3 Installing RF Cabling

RF cabling on the RAN connects the RF antenna to the RF input on the back of the RAN. There are five Type N receptacles on the antenna and five Type N receptacles on the back of the RAN, identified in Table 21 on page 47.

There are two main steps in installing RF cables: weatherproofing the cables, and routing and securing the cables.

Page 45

Page 58

ADCP-75-210 • Issue 1 • March 2007

2.7.3.1 Weatherproofing RF Cables

RF cables should be weatherproofed before being installed. The following materials are required (customer supplied):

Note: Read and understand the manufacturer’s instructions prior to using these products.

• 3M 8426-9M cold shrink

• 3M Skothkote Electrical Coating 14853

Use the following procedure to weatherproof the RF cables:

1. Prior to connecting the RF cables to either the RAN or antenna, place one 3M 8426-9M cold shrink kit over the cable end, then connect the cable end to its intended termination point. Follow the manufacturer’s directions, which are included with each kit.

2. After the cold shrink has been applied, coat the entire length of the cold shrink material with the 3M Scotchkote Electrical Coating, number 14853.

2.7.3.2 Routing and Securing RF Cables

For cable installation, the following materials are required (customer supplied):

• 10 Type N male plugs (CommScope PN: 540ANM or equivalent)

• Coax cable (CommScope PN: FXL540OPE or equivalent)

• Electrician’s tape

• Water seal

Use the following procedure to route and secure the RF cabling:

1. Measure from the antenna base connectors to the RAN connectors to determine the coax cable length including service loops and drip loops. Refer to Figure 25 on Page 35.

2. Install the Type N plugs on each end of each of the RF cables.

Note: Right angle connectors may not be needed if there is enough space or if the coax cable is flexible enough to create a proper bend radius in the cable. Reference the coax cable manufacturer specifications for allowable bend radii.

Note: A cable sweep test is highly recommended. When testing the RF and GPS coaxial cables, use a matched load. The VSWR should be 1:1:1. The return loss should be 26.444 dB or better.

3. Attach each end of the cables to the appropriate connectors on the antenna base and the RAN. Refer to Figure 33 and Ta bl e 21 .

4. Tighten each connector to 20 ft.-lbs.

5. After each connector is tightened, cover the entire connection with electrician’s tape, then wrap the connection in water seal and finally cover the water seal with wraps of electrician’s tape.

2.7.4 Installing Pre-Connectorized Indoor/Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable

Fiber optic cable installation consists of routing a pre-connectorized outdoor-rated fiber optic cable from an external splice enclosure to the NXD RAN cabinet, routing the cable into the cabinet, and then breaking out the individual fibers for connection. The NXD RAN has a fiber interface on the front of the Synchronous Interface (SIF) Module in the RAN chassis. The fiber enters the cabinet on the rear side.

Page 47

Page 60

ADCP-75-210 • Issue 1 • March 2007

All fiber optic cable connections require single-mode Dual-LC type connectors.

Figure 34 shows the basic configuration of the optical path between the Hub SIF and the RAN

SIF. For optical specifications, refer to Table 2 on page 6.

21353-A

Figure 34. Optical Path Between Hub SIF and RAN SIF

For fiber cable ingress, the RAN is equipped with a nylon fiber optic connector located on the rear side of the cabinet. The connector accommodates cables of a diameter in the range .38 to .50 inches (.97 to 1.27 cm).

Note: If the installer has a larger cable, the manufacturer (Hubbell Inc.) makes bushings

that fit this connector in the following size ranges: .500-.625, .625-.750, .750-.875, .875-

1.00, 1.00-1.125 inches.

Use the following procedure to install the fiber optic cable:

Note: The routing of an Outside Plant (OSP) fiber optic cable from the Hub to a splice enclosure in the vicinity of the RAN cabinet and the splicing of selected OSP cable fibers to the fibers in the outdoor-rated cable is the responsibility of the installer.

Warn ing: This equipment uses a Class 1 Laser according to FDA/CDRH rules. Laser radiation can seriously damage the retina of the eye. Do not look into the ends of any optical fiber. Do not look directly into the optical transmitter of any unit or exposure to laser radiation may result. An optical power meter should be used to verify active fibers. A protective cap or hood MUST be immediately placed over any radiating transmitter or optical fiber connector to avoid the potential of dangerous amounts of radiation exposure. This practice also prevents dirt particles from entering the connector.

1. Route the connectorized end of the fiber optic cable from the splice enclosure (not provided) to the rear side of the cabinet. Estimated length of cable is 30 feet (9 meters) although this is dependent upon distance from the splice enclosure.

Page 48

Page 61

ADCP-75-210 • Issue 1 • March 2007

Note: The fiber should not have armored jacketing which may be a source for ElectroMagnetic Interference (EMI).

2. Install the compression nut and an appropriate sized split ring and bushing over the cable end. Note that the beveled side of the split ring should face toward the compression nut.

3. Insert the end of the cable into the fiber entry opening on the bottom of the cabinet and pull the cable into the cabinet.

4. Connect fiber to the LC receptor located on the SIF electronic module. For location, refer to Figure 11 on Page 16.

5. Pull back any excess fiber from within the NXD cabinet.

6. Tighten the compression nut on the fiber entry connector body to secure the cable.

7. Seal all connections.

2.7.5 Installing AC Power

Note: Power interfacing for the RAN must be performed by a licensed electrician.

Prime power for the RAN is 240 VAC, 20 Amps, single phase. A separate service disconnect and lightning arrestor for each RAN must be installed with proper grounding. An electric meter is optional depending on local agreements.

A non-connectorized #14 AWG 3-wire power cable is provided with the RAN cabinet for the AC power connections. The power cable is connected to a wiring harness within the cabinet and is approximately 20 feet (6 meters) long. The stub end of the cable must be routed out of the cabinet through conduit to an external junction box (not provided). At the junction box, the power cable must be connected to the AC power system wiring. The RAN electrical input fitting is located on the right rear of the cabinet, labeled “AC.”

The AC power cable provides three wire leads for Line, Neutral, and Ground connections. All AC wires must be run within conduit. The interface at the RAN is a 1 in. (2.54 cm) 90 degree receptor elbow.

For installation of AC power, the following materials are required (customer provided):

• Electrical conduit

• Conduit fittings

• Connector sealant material

The following tools are required to perform this procedure:

• Wire cutters

• Wire strippers

• Conduit cutter

• Conduit bender

Page 49

Page 62

ADCP-75-210 • Issue 1 • March 2007

Note: All electrical work must comply with local codes and requirements. A locally licensed electrical contractor is best qualified to perform this work. For operation at less than 20 Amps, consult with ADC Technical Service.

Danger: Use extreme caution when working with high voltage AC power. Ensure all power is disconnected before working on power circuits.

Use the following procedure to install the AC power wiring:

1. Install outdoor conduit between the the AC power junction box and the AC power fitting (rigid 90 degree receptor elbow) on the back of the cabinet.

2. Use a UL approved outdoor conduit connector (not provided) to connect the conduit to the AC power junction box.

Note: A reducer fitting must be provided to accommodate any size change to the conduit.

3. Route the AC power cable through the conduit to the AC junction box.

4. Install the required AC power supply wires between the AC junction box and the AC circuit breaker box (by the junction box not within the RAN).

5. Strip off the insulation from the AC power cable wire leads and from the AC supply wires and connect the AC power cable wires to the AC supplier cable.

6. Connect the AC power to the AC wiring harness.

7. At the AC circuit breaker box, connect the AC power supply load wire(s) to a 20 Amp circuit breaker.

8. Place the circuit breaker in the ON position and then test the connectorized AC power cable within the cabinet for proper voltage levels and correct polarity.

9. Place the circuit breaker in the OFF position when testing is complete.

2.7.6 Installing Backup Batteries (Extended or Glitch)

Backup batteries for the RAN may be either two-hours-extended or five minutes glitch. The batteries will need to be installed and under charge before they will be able to provide full service. Battery storage life is one year in an environmentally controlled area. Batteries should be checked prior to installation. Each battery should measure 12.6 V or greater across terminals. Any battery that measures less should not be used. Refer to the battery manufacturer’s manual for specific information including charging recommendations, tests, and maintenance.

5 MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES

This section provides procedures for completing various maintenance tasks at the RAN. Refer to the procedures in this section as necessary when scheduled maintenance is required. For fault and troubleshooting procedures, refer to the system operation and maintenance manual, ADCP75-209.

5.1 cPCI Fan Replacement Procedure

The RAN chassis is equipped with a cooling fan that exhausts heated air from the chassis assembly. Cool air enters the cPCI chassis through vent openings on the front door of the cabinet. The recommended replacement interval is 60 months.

Use the following procedure to remove and replace the cPCI cooling fan.

1. Loosen the two thumbscrews that secure the fan access panel front door.

2. Open the hinged door (it swings down) to access the fan compartment.

3. Slide out the fan being replaced, note how it is connected, and then disconnect the fan.

4. Connect the new fan like the previous fan and slide it into the fan compartment.

5. Verify that the fan is running properly.

6. Close the fan panel door and secure it with the thumbscrews.

5.2 Cleaning or Replacing an Air Inlet Filter

The RAN cabinet air filter cleans the intake air before it enters the cabinets. The filter should be cleaned approximately once per year and more often in extremely dirty environments. If the cabinet temperature gradually rises over a long period of time and there are no fan failures, it is possible that the filter is dirty and requires cleaning. Use the following procedure to clean the cabinet air filter:

1. Open the RAN enclosure door and remove the inlet air filter tray door as shown in

Figure 49.

2. Pull the filter and away from its mounting slot at the bottom of the cabinet.

3. Gently tap the filter against your hand to dislodge the dirt. If necessary, use compressed air or a vacuum cleaner to remove the dirt.

4. Carefully inspect the filter for holes or tears and replace if it is damaged.

5. Orient the filter with the airflow arrows pointed inside the RAN.

6. Close and secure the inlet air filter tray.
