4.2 Install the Repeater
Instructions in the left column are fast track instructions and can be used by experienced users. Other users are recommended to read the complete text in this installation guide
4.2.1 Unpack the Repeater
Inspect the shipped material before unpacking the equipment, document any visual damage and report according to routines.
A delivery of a repeater from Avitec contains:
! Checklist with delivered items ! Repeater ! Wall mounting kit or rack mounting kit (defined in order) ! 4 bolts for attaching repeater to mounting kit ! Cable cover ! Keys to repeater and cable cover ! CD containing Product Description and User’s Manual ! Any other specifically ordered item
4.2.2 Mount the Repeater
Mount the repeater on a wall, on a pole or in a rack
Ensure proper ventilation
Mount the repeater in an accessible location and in a location that fulfils the environmental requirements.
The repeater can be mounted on the wall, on a pole or in a 19 inch rack. The Repeater is delivered with a wall mounting kit or a rack mounting kit.
The repeater needs to be mounted tightly to eliminate vibrations
Wall mounting kit Rack mounting kit
Mount the repeater so that heat can be dispersed from it. The repeater wall mounting
kit ensures an optimum airflow between the wall and the repeater itself. Do not block this air channel as it will cause the MTBF of the repeater to drop dramatically, or even in the worst case cause the repeater to fail completely.
If possible use a wall in the shadow to minimize the overall sun loading. If sufficient shielding cannot be obtained, an additional sun shield should be mounted.

4.2.4 Ensure Good EMV Protection (Lightning)
Caution
If insufficient Electro magnetic Protection is provided,
or if EMV measures are not taken, warranties issued by Avitec are not valid.
Connect the lightning protection
The lightning hazard to electric and electronic equipment consists in the interferences of direct lightning current infections and high surge voltages induced by the electromagnetic field of nearby lightning channels or down conductors. Amplitudes from cloud-to-earth lightning amounts to several 10kA and may last longer than 2 ms. The damage caused depends on the energy involved and on the sensitivity of the electronics systems.
Ensure that lightning protection measures are taken to create a reliable repeater site. Protect all coaxial cables and power cables from the transients caused by lightning. Fit all cables with suitable lightning protection devices.
For detailed information please refer to IEC 61024-1 and 61312-1 for international standards for protection of information systems against LEMP, Lightning Electromagnetic Pulse, including radio transmitters. They define proper planning, installation and inspection of effective lightni ng protection systems.
The top of the mast must be higher than the antennas and be properly grounded
Antennas
The grounding path must have reliable continuity and be correctly dimensioned
Primary Protective Devices
Equipotential Grounding Bars

Secondary Protective Devices
Protective Device
The Avitec repeaters comply with the EN standard ETS 301 498-8 which stipulates demands on lightning/surge protection for typical infrastructure telecom equipment installations.
Several lightning protection devices should be used in series with declining threshold voltages to help attenuate the pulse component which makes it through the first layer of protection.
The primary protective device is part of the site installation and is not supplied by Avitec. Coaxial lightning protection is normally one of these three types: Gas
230V AC/48V DC
capsule, High-pass and Bandpass.

Cleaning Optical Connectors
Optical reflections from a discontinuity such as a poor connector interface appear on an RF spectrum analyzer trace as stable variations in the noise floor amplitude that are periodic with RF frequency. If the reflection is bad enough, it could impact the system performance. By far, the most common cause for a large discrete reflection is a dirty optical connector. A bit of dust or oil from a finger can easily interfere with, or block this light. Fortunately, it is very easy to clean the connector.

Requirements on 48 V power supply
The 48V power supply must comply with SELV requirements, as defined in EN60950, which implies double isolation. The output power needs to be 48VDC +25%/-15%.
For a 2 channel repeater the maximum input current is 8A, for a 4-channel repeater 16A.
In 4-channel repeaters there are two power supplies – one in each part of the box. Each power supply has its own power switch. Both need to be switched on.
Backup Battery
There is a back-up battery installed in connection with the power supply. If there is a power failure the battery will supply enough power for the Control Module in the repeater to send information about the power failure.
The backup battery can be switched on an off separately. The switch is placed adjacent to the mains power switch on the power supply.
In 4-channel repeaters there is a backup battery only in connection to the main power supply unit.
At delivery the back-up battery is connected. It can be replaced by lifting the battery pack out of the crate and disconnecting the cable.

External Alarm
Four external alarm sources can be connected to the repeater. These alarms operate on a voltage between 12 and 24VDC. The presence or absence of this voltage will trigger the alarm depending on how the alarm polarity has been configured via software.
The alarms can be configured active-low or active-high, so that the alarm is given either in the presence or absence of applied power. Active high means that an applied voltage of between 12 and 24 V will cause the external alarm indicator to turn red. Active low means that when there is no voltage the alarm indicator will turn red.
The repeater can supply +15 VDC to an external alarm source through pin 9 and 10. The maximum allowed load is 50mA.
The repeater contains a relay (pin 11 and 12) that can be connected to an external device to indicate an alarm. The relay can be configured to trigger on any number of internal and external alarms. The maximum current that can be supplied is 50mA.
For configuration of external alarms see section 4.4.4 Alarm Configuration.

Configure the uplink of Chain 1 and 2
Apply the same Power Level and Attenuation in downlink Chain 2 as in downlink Chain 1.
The presence of the BCCH in Chain 1 will ensure stable power levels whereas downlink and uplink power levels in Chain 2 will be dependant on the amount of traffic. This will make Chain 2 appear unstable.
In a 4-channel repeater also configure the downlink of Chain 3 and Chain 4.
Note! All channels that are not to be used should always be switched off (set Power

2dB) In a 4-channel repeater also set the uplink for Chain 3 and Chain 4 Since the BTS is more sensitive than a mobile unit there may be less signal gain from
the mobile unit in to the BTS (UL) than in the opposite direction. The uplink attenuation can be adjusted more accurately later on, once the drive test signal measurements have been completed.

Apply the same Power Level and Attenuation in downlink Chain 2 as in downlink Chain 1.
The presence of the BCCH in Chain 1 will ensure stable power levels whereas downlink and uplink power levels in Chain 2 will be dependant on the amount of traffic. This will make Chain 2 appear unstable.
Note! All channels that are not to be used should always be switched off. (Set Power
Level to “OFF”.)
Set the Power Level for the uplink to -10/-13/-15 dBm depending on the site design,
for instance the number of sectors in the BTS and the level of noise allowed. Set the Attenuation 2dB higher than in the downlink. In this example the attenuation
in the uplink is set to 16dB (14dB + 2dB= 16dB) Since the BTS is more sensitive than a mobile unit there may be less signal gain
from the mobile unit in to the BTS (UL) than in the opposite direction. The uplink attenuation can be adjusted more accurately later on once the drive test signal measurements have been completed.
The configuration of the Remote Unit is almost identical to the configuration of the Donor Unit apart from the gain and output power settings.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND USER'S MANUAL
Lower the attenuation level step by step until the desired output power level is reached. In this example +33 dBm. Zero attenuation is the same as maximum gain.
The input signal contains the MCCH and will have a stable value.
Configure the uplink
In the uplink direction the attenuation needs to be set based on a measurement of a
known signal which is transmitted through the repeater and the Hub as well as the fibre. There are two ways of performing this measurement.
Alternative 1 Use a signal generator to insert a signal of approximately -65dBm to -75dBm into
the repeater’s server antenna port. Measure the signal level on the BTS or on the coupler and adjust the attenuation so that the total gain in the uplink is close to 0dB. (At 0dB gain the signal level at the coupler should be -35dBm and on the BTS ­65dBm in this example.)
Alternative 2 Use a signal generator to insert a signal of approximately -65dBm to -75dBm into
the repeater’s server antenna port. Log into the Hub and monitor the uplink via the RMC. This measurement is not as accurate as alternative 1.

Note! If there are problems to reach 0dB gain in the whole chain extra attenuators
might need to be added to the system.
Note! If several repeaters are connected to the same Hub the total gain in each chain
should be slightly lower than 0dB not to insert too much noise into the BTS.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND USER'S MANUAL
5 Maintenance
5.1 General
The system normally operates without any operator intervention or maintenance. In the unlikely event of a unit failure, the field replaceable components (antenna unit, cables, etc.) should be checked and replaced if faulty and the system restored. A failed unit can be removed and replaced with a spare while the rest of the system (other repeaters) is operating. However, the power supply of the failed repeater should be isolated from AC mains and DC power before any module is replaced.
Should the system malfunction, the condition of the antenna systems as well as the continuity of the cabling should be checked before replacing any of the repeater modules.
Caution
Please be aware that the equipment may, during certain conditions become very warm and can cause minor
injuries if handled without any protection, such as gloves.
5.2 Preventive Maintenance
The Avitec repeaters do not require any preventative maintenance apart from changing the backup battery once every three years.
Caution
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to local laws and instructions.
