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

Caution: Electronic modules can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). To prevent this, take the following precautions:
• Wear an anti-static-discharge wrist strap while handling modules.
• Place modules in anti-static packing material when transporting or storing them.

Warn ing: To prevent electrical shock, never install equipment in a wet location or during a lightning storm. When installing or modifying telephone lines, disconnect lines at the network interface before working with uninsulated lines or terminals. Disconnect all power feeds before working with uninsulated lines or terminals.
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 transceiver or connector.

1 DESCRIPTION

Software Defined Radio (SDR), refers to wireless communication in which the transmitter modulation is generated and receiver demodulation recovered by software operating on a computer. To select the desired modulation and demodulation type, configuration programs must be run by microcomputers controlling the transmitter and receiver.
The most significant asset of SDR is versatility. Wireless systems employ protocols that vary from one service to another. Even in the same type of service, for example wireless fax, the

protocol often differs from country to country. A single SDR set with an all-inclusive software repertoire can be used in any mode, anywhere in the world. Changing the service type, the mode, and/or the modulation protocol involves simply selecting and launching the requisite computer program. A SDR PCIx Host Card is shown in Figure 1.

Software Defined Radio (SDR) allows a single device to adapt to different communications environments and systems by selecting the most appropriate protocol and frequency needed for a link. One device may work with a wireless local area network protocol in the city, and then be reconfigured to work with terrestrial and satellite protocols to deliver broadband applications to rural and remote areas.
SDR works much like desktop computing, where a single hardware platform carries out many functions based on the software applications loaded. SDR uses software to perform radio-signal processing functions instead of using resistors, capacitors, feedback loops, or application­specific integrated circuits.

The SDR PCIx host card is installed in a server and cabled to the LRCS remote (radio head) units and the GPS receiver. Power is provided by the server with configuration and software management through the server communications interface. Communications with the network is through the server and associated hardware and software.

1.1 Operating Conditions

The host card is designed to operate in any server that operates in this temperature range (+32°F to +122°F (0°C to +50°C).

2 SDR CARD INSTALLATION

2.1 Power Down the Server

Warn ing: To reduce the risk of personal injury, electric shock, or damage to the equipment, remove the power cord to remove power from the server. The front panel Power On switch may not completely shut off system power. Portions of the power supply and some internal circuitry may remain active until AC power is removed.
ADCP-75-198 • Issue 1 • October 2005
1. Back up the server data.
2. Shut down the operating system as directed by the operating system documentation.
3. If the server is installed in a rack, locate the server.
4. Some servers may have a standby mode, if your server has a standby mode, press the Power On/Standby button to place the server in standby mode. When the server activates standby power mode, the system power LED should indicate the change to standby mode.
5. Disconnect the power cords. Server is now without power.

2.2 Extend Server from the Rack

Loosen the thumbscrews that secure the server faceplate to the front of the rack. Extend the server on the rack rails until the server rail-release latches engage.
Warn ing: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, be sure that the rack is adequately stabilized before extending a component from the rack. Warn ing: To reduce the risk of personal injury, be careful when pressing the server rail-release latches and sliding server into the rack. The sliding rails could pinch your fingers.
