Duplexer and Low Noise Amplifier

The RF Module provides the Remote Unit with an internal Duplexer that is optimized to provide the desired RF band-pass filtering and in-band equipment isolation between FWD and REV paths. The Duplexer provides the filtering necessary to the transmit and receive paths to and from the connected antenna.

The Duplexer for the Single- and Dual-Bay RF Modules and the Legacy Dual-Bay 40W RF Modules contains up to two REV path Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA for PRI and/or SEC reverse paths).

The Duplexer for an HDM RF Module does not have a Low Noise Amplifier.

Duplexers are not field serviceable.

Digital Processing Module

The Digital Processing Module (DPM) is found only in the HDM RF Modules. The DPM provides the primary processing and logic functions for the HDM RF Module. It also provides the primary power interface for the HDM RF Module, and conversion of the native 28

The DPM has a Transmit (Tx) Board and a Receive (Rx) Board:

• Tx Board—provides band specific filtering for the intended Transmit path.

• Rx Board—provides band specific filtering for the intended Receive path.

Vdc voltage to lower voltages as necessary for functionality.

Cables

Always provided at each RF Module shelf are five cables:

• two High-Speed Data Cables, which in this document are referred to as LVDS (Low-Voltage Differential Signaling) cables

• two RF Cables (TX0/RX0) and (TX1/RX1)

• one Power (PWR) Cable.

The RF Module cables that are pre-installed in the PRU connect to the corresponding connectors on the RF Module. The RF Module cables correlate to the antenna connectors on the bottom of the Remote Unit chassis.

UNDERSTANDING RF CABLE RULES

• When installing a Diversity, MIMO or Dual-Band RF Module, both RF cables labeled MOD N TX0/RX0 and

MOD N TX1/RX1 shall be connected to the N-Style connections of the RF Module. Note that older labeling schemes used “PRI” and “DIV”. To match old labeling schemes to current labeling:

INSTALL THE RF MODULE(S)

The following sections guide you through the installation of an RF Module into a Rem ote Unit chassis. The process to install the four different types of RF Modules is basically the same; however, differences are noted and should be followed.

NOTE: In the following steps, the RF cables and connectors are referred to as MOD N TX0/RX0 and as MOD N

TX1/RX1 where N equals A, B, C, or D.

NOTE: When installing RF Modules, populate the RF Modules from highest frequency band to lowest within the

Remote Unit chassis. Likewise for power output, populate from the bottom bay to the top; higher output to lower output. That is, for a deployment with 2100 40W, 1900 40W, 850 20W and 700 20W MIMO, install the RF Modules as follows:

• 2100 40W RF Module in Bay A

• 1900 40W RF Module in Bay B

• 850 20W RF Module in Bay C

• 700 20W MIMO RF Module in Bay D.

Safety Precautions

CAUTION! This is restricted access equipment and only qualified service personnel should service and operate this

equipment using appropriate tools.

CAUTION! 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.

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 Prism Remote Unit may be hot. Use caution during servicing.

CAUTION! Service personnel must confirm that the perimeter gasket and door-to-door gaskets are in place when

closing the Remote Unit doors after servicing.

CAUTION! 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 an 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.

Guard against Damage from Electro-Static Discharge

CAUTION! Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To prevent ESD damage, always wear

an ESD wrist strap when working with a Prism Remote Unit or when handling any of its components—including the RF Modules. Connect the ground wire on the ESD wrist strap to an earth ground source before touching the Prism Remote Unit or any of its components. Wear the wrist strap the entire time that you work with the Prism Remote Unit and its components.

CAUTION! Place Prism RF Modules in anti-static packing material when transporting or storing them.

Unpack and Inspect the RF Module

1 Inspect the exterior of the shipping container(s) for evidence of rough handling that may have damaged the

components in the container.

2 Unpack each container while carefully checking the contents for damage and verify with the packing slip.

3 If damage is found or parts are missing, file a claim with the commercial carrier and notify TE Customer

Service (see

4 Save all shipping containers for use if the equipment requires shipment at a future date.

CAUTION! Handle the RF Module with care during installation. Be especially careful to not damage the

“Contacting TE Connectivity” on page 51). Save the damaged cartons for inspection by the carrier.

thermal-interface material (TIM), which is attached to the LPA, DARTs, and/or Motherboard with TX/RX boards. If the TIM is damaged, the LPA can overheat. Before installing the RF Module, check to see if the heatsink material is gouged or cracked. If the TIM is damaged, do not install the RF Module and contact TE Connectivity for assistance (see “Contacting TE Connectivity” on page 51 for contact information).

CAUTION! If the thermal-interface material is damaged, the installation and use of the RF Module may void the

warranty of the RF Module.

CAUTION! Service personnel must confirm that the perimeter gasket and door-to-door gaskets are in place when

closing the Remote Unit doors after servicing.

CAUTION! If the PRU door was allowed to snap closed, RF output from an HDM RF Module may be disabled for up

to three minutes. Any alarms generated immediately following the opening/closing of the PRU Doors, such as Door Open, RF Power Low, System VSWR Fault, and LPA VSWR Fault, automatically clear once the RF has recovered. If alarms do not clear after three minutes, please contact TE for technical support; see “Contacting TE Connectivity” on page 51.

Provision the Prism Remote Unit
