2.1 About this manual

This manual describes installation and maintenance of OneBASE™ Pico Node B.
The manual is intended for on-site installation and maintenance personnel.

2.2 CE conformance

Hereby, CommScope, declares that this OneBASE™ Pico Node B is in
compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of
Directive 1999/5/EC.

2.3 FCC

2.3.1 Part 15 – Class B digital device or peripheral

This equipment has been tested and found to comply to with the limits for Class B
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does, cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the equipment of and on, the user is encouraged to
try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: -Reorient
or relocate the receiving antenna. –Increase the separation between the equipment
and receiver. –Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver in connected. –Consult the dealer or an experienced
radio/TV technician for help.

2.4 Safety and warnings

The safety information provided in this manual is a supplement to local
regulations and is only valid for the OneBASE™ Node B. Any other equipment
supplied by CommScope or any local supplier may have its own safety
instructions. Study all instructions carefully before starting work.

CAUTION

Make sure that local regulations on safety and

installation methods are known and followed.

Note: Failure to follow the requirements, instructions or local regulations may void

the product warranty and may expose the equipment owner or the service
provider to legal and financial liabilities.

CommScope and its resellers or distributors are not liable for injury, damage or
violation of regulations associated with the installation of the equipment in
breach with instructions or local regulations.

2.4.2 High voltage

Improper mains power installation may cause fire or electrical shock.

Only a qualified and authorized electrician is permitted to install or

modify the mains installation.

2.4.3 Electromagnetic radiation

The OneBASE™ internal antenna transmits radio energy during normal operation.
The output power is less than 250 mW and the energy level even at close distance

is well below the recommended exposure limits for the general public.

WARNING

The safety distance to fulfill the occupational exposure limits (OEL) is 0.2 m. This
means that it is recommended to not stand or work closer than 0.2 m from the
front of the internal antenna for extended periods of time.

2.4.4 Equipment alterations

Note: The casing of the OneBASE™ Node B unit may on no occasion be opened. In

case the sealing has been broken CommScope voids the product warranty and
assumes no responsibility of the safety.

Note: The OneBASE™ Node B may not be covered, painted, or altered in any way.

Ensure sufficient airflow for ventilation.

3 Product overview

3.1 General

OneBASE™ Pico Node B is a complete pico cell radio base station intended to
enhance coverage and increase capacity in 3G (UMTS) systems. The OneBASE™
Pico Node B connects to the UTRAN system using the Iub interface.

If the UTRAN operation and maintenance system (OMC) has integrated support
for OneBASE™ Node B, then this can be used for centralized operation and
maintenance.

Local configuration is handled with the Local Management Tool – LMT. The
LMT runs on a standard portable PC and is connected directly to an OneBASE™
Node B unit through an Ethernet interface.

For remote control it is possible to use an LMT via the same IP network as would
be used for used centralized operation and maintenance.

An NTP (Network Time Protocol) Server is required in order to get the correct
time in the Node B. Each Node B has an NTP client which fetches the correct
time from the NTP Server.

3.2 Mechanical design

OneBASE™ is designed for indoor use in both office environments and public
areas like malls, airports, arenas, garages, etc. The compact size and light weight
makes it easy to place. The power consumption is low and since it uses self­convection cooling it is completely noise free.

A complete OneBASE™ Pico Node B consists of:

• Node B unit

• Support unit, including AC/DC converter

• Internal antenna (optional)

• Cover

• Mains cable

The Node B unit contains all electronics and interface connectors. Integrated with
the Node B unit is an optional internal antenna. External antennas may be used
instead of the internal antenna, which then is omitted.

The support unit must always be used for mounting the OneBASE™ Node B unit
to a wall. Optionally, mounting equipment for mounting in a ceiling or on a pole
is available. The support unit includes an AC/DC converter and a mains cable
with the mains end open or fitted with a protective earth plug.

The purpose of the cover is to give OneBASE™ esthetical exterior with or
without the optional internal antenna fitted. The color of the standard cover is light
gray.

Installation overview
OneBASE™ is easy to install and maintain. The supplied support unit is typically

screwed onto a wall and the Node B unit is hanged onto the support unit. The
Node B unit is connected to a standard mains outlet and one or two transmission
interface outlets.

Optional equipment may be ordered for mounting to the ceiling or on a pole.

Ethernet adapter directly to the OneBASE™ Node B unit. Initial configuration
may be done before taking the OneBASE™ Node B unit to the installation site, or
on site in connection with the hardware installation.

Periodic on site maintenance is normally not required.
