6 LINEAR POWER AMPLIFIER
The Linear Power Amplifier (LPA), shown in Figure 2-9, works is conjunction with the STM to
amplify the forward path RF output signal. The STM is interfaced with the LPA through the Dsub connectors and wiring harness located at the rear of the RU cabinet/mounting shelf. The RF
signal is passed to the LPA for amplification and then passed back to the STM for filtering and
output via the STM’s ANTENNA port. The STM also supplies DC power to the LPA through
the same interface.
6.1 Primary Components
The LPA consists of several electronic circuit board assemblies and one fan that are mounted
within a powder-paint coated sheet metal enclosure. The metal enclosure provides a mounting
point for the electronic components and controls RF emissions. Except for the fan unit, the
electronic components are not user replaceable. The LPA is designed for use within the RU
outdoor cabinet or indoor mounting shelf. Except for the STM interface connector, all controls,
indicators, and switches are mounted on the LPA front panel for easy access. A carrying handle
is provided on the front of the LPA to facilitate installation and transport.

7 INTERFACE PANELS (ACCESSORY)
The interface panels are accessory items that are used when multiple BTS’s and multiple HU’s
require connection or when RF attenuation is needed between the BTS and HU. Two types of
panels are available: the Conditioning Panel and the Duplexing Panel. The Conditioning Panel,
shown in Figure 2-11, provides attenuation of the forward path signal to the level required for
input to the HU. The Conditioning Panel also provides forward and reverse path combining and
splitting (as needed) to enable multi-BTS to single HU, multi-BTS to multi-HU, or single BTS
to multi-HU configurations.
18644-A
Figure 2-11. Conditioning Panel
The Duplexing Panel, shown in Figure 2-12, is used in conjunction with the Conditioning Panel
when the BTS provides a duplexed forward and reverse path RF connection. The Duplexing
Panel separates the duplexed forward and reverse path signals. This allows the BTS to be
connected to the HU which has separate forward and reverse path RF ports. For complete
information about the Conditioning Panel and Duplexing Panel, refer to the Digivance RF
Transport Solution 800 and 1900 MHz Interface Panels User Manual (ADCP-75-144).

10 DIGIVANCE ELEMENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The Digivance Element Management System (DEMS) is a network management tool that
provides control and monitoring functions for the Digivance system. The DEMS is used to
provision and configure new systems for operation, set system operating parameters, get system
alarm and status messages, and upgrade the system software. The DEMS supports both local
control by an on-site service technician and remote control by a Network Operations Center
(NOC).
10.1 Primary Components
The DEMS, shown in Figure 2-17, consists of a PC-type desk-top computer (not provided) that
is loaded with the DEMS software. The DEMS software is stored on a CD-ROM that is shipped
with the HU. The DEMS software must be installed on the DEMS computer along with the Java
2 Version 1.3.1 Runtime Environment software which is also provided. Installation consists of
inserting the CD-ROM into the computer’s CD-ROM drive and then running the software install
programs. This places the Java 2 Runtime Environment and DEMS software files in assigned

10.2 Service Interface Connection
The service interface connection between the DEMS computer and the HU or RU requires that
the DEMS computer be equipped with a DB-9 connector that is configured to provide an RS232 DCE interface. A straight-through RS-232 interface cable (accessory item) equipped with a
male DB-9 connector on one end and a PC-compatible connector on the other end is required to
link the DEMS computer to the HU. When multiple HUs are networked together, the DEMS
computer may be connected to the service connector on any one of the networked HUs.
10.3 NOC Interface Connection
The NOC interface connection between the DEMS computer and the NOC requires that the
DEMS computer be equipped with a connector that is configured to provide an RS-232 ASCII
interface. The link between the DEMS computer and the NOC would generally be supported by
a data network. Cables and equipment (not provided) to support the RS-232 interface
connection between the DEMS computer and the data network or dial-up modem are required.
10.4 DEMS Software User Interface
The DEMS software provides two user interfaces: the Graphical User Interface (GUI) and the
Network Operation Center-Network Element Manager (NOC/NEM) interface. Both interfaces
provide essentially the same functionality except only the GUI can upgrade the Digivance
system with new system software. In addition, only the NOC/NEM interface can record and
playback alarm data.
The GUI is presented at the DEMS computer or on a laptop computer. The GUI is used for local
control and monitoring operations. The GUI consists of a series of displays and screens, such as
the one shown in Figure 2-18, that provide the user with alarm and status information and that
allow the user to set various operating parameters.
