1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Scope and Purpose of Document
This handbook is for use solely with the equipment identified by the Aerial Facilities Limited (AFL) Part
Number shown on the front cover. It is not to be used with any other equipment unless specifically
authorised by AFL. This is a controlled release document and, as such, becomes a part of Aerial
Facilities’ Total Quality Management System. Alterations and modification may therefore only be
performed by AFL.
AFL recommends that the installer of this equipment familiarise themselves with the safety and
installation procedures contained within this document before installation commences.
The purpose of this handbook is to provide the user/maintainer with sufficient information to service
and repair the equipment to the level agreed. Maintenance and adjustments to any deeper level must
be performed by AFL, normally at the company’s repair facility in Chesham, England.
This handbook has been prepared in accordance with BS 4884, and AFL’s Quality procedures, which
maintain the company’s registration to BS EN ISO 9001:2000 and to the R&TTE Directive of the
European Parliament. Copies of the relevant certificates and the company Quality Manual can be
supplied on application to the Quality Manager.
This document fulfils the relevant requirements of Article 6 of the R&TTE Directive.
1.2. Limitation of Liability Notice
This manual is written for the use of technically competent operators/service persons. No liability is
accepted by AFL for use or misuse of this manual, the information contained therein, or the
consequences of any actions resulting from the use of the said information, including, but not limited
to, descriptive, procedural, typographical, arithmetical, or listing errors.
Furthermore, AFL does not warrant the absolute accuracy of the information contained within this
manual, or its completeness, fitness for purpose, or scope.
AFL has a policy of continuous product development and enhancement, and as such, reserves the
right to amend, alter, update and generally change the contents, appearance and pertinence of this
document without notice.
All AFL products carry a twelve month warranty from date of shipment. The warranty is expressly on a
return to base repair or exchange basis and the warranty cover does not extend to on-site repair or
complete unit exchange.

2. SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
2.1. Earthing of Equipment
Equipment supplied from the mains must be connected to grounded outlets and earthed
in conformity with appropriate local, national and international electricity supply and
safety regulations.
2.2. Electric Shock Hazard
The risk of electrical shocks due to faulty mains driven power supplies whilst
potentially ever present in any electrical equipment, would be minimised by adherence
to good installation practice and thorough testing at the following stages:
a) Original assembly.
b) Commissioning.
c) Regular intervals, thereafter.
All test equipment must be in good working order prior to its use. High current power supplies can be
dangerous because of the possibility of substantial arcing. Always switch off during disconnection and
reconnection.
2.3. RF Radiation Hazard
RF radiation, (especially at UHF frequencies) arising from transmitter outputs
connected to AFL’s equipment, must be considered a safety hazard.
This condition might only occur in the event of cable disconnection, or because a
‘spare’ output has been left un-terminated. Either of these conditions would impair the
system’s efficiency. No investigation should be carried out until all
removed. This would always be a wise precaution, despite the severe mismatch between the
impedance of an N type connector at 50, and that of free space at 377, which would severely
mitigate against the efficient radiation of RF power. Radio frequency burns could also be a hazard, if
any RF power carrying components were to be carelessly touched!
Antenna positions should be chosen to comply with requirements (both local & statutory) regarding
exposure of personnel to RF radiation. When connected to an antenna, the unit is capable of
producing RF field strengths, which may exceed guideline safe values especially if used with
antennas having appreciable gain. In this regard the use of directional antennas with backscreens
and a strict site rule that personnel must remain behind the screen while the RF power is on, is
strongly recommended.
Where the equipment is used near power lines or in association with temporary masts not having
lightning protection, the use of a safety earth connected to the case-earthing bolt is strongly advised.
2.4. Lifting and other Health and Safety Recommendations
Certain items of AFL equipment are heavy and care should be taken when lifting them
by hand. Ensure that a suitable number of personnel, appropriate lifting apparatus
and appropriate personal protective equipment is used especially when installing Cell
Enhancers above ground e.g. on a mast or pole.
RF power sources have been

2.5. Chemical Hazard
Beryllium Oxide, also known as Beryllium Monoxide, or Thermalox™, is sometimes
used in devices within equipment produced by Aerial Facilities Ltd. Beryllium oxide
dust can be toxic if inhaled, leading to chronic respiratory problems. It is harmless if
ingested or by contact.
Products that contain beryllium are dummy loads (load terminations) and some power amplifiers.
These products can be identified by a yellow and black “skull and crossbones” danger symbol (shown
above). They are marked as hazardous in line with international regulations, but pose no threat under
normal circumstances. Only if a component containing beryllium oxide has suffered catastrophic
failure, or exploded, will there be any danger of the formation of dust. Any dust that has been created
will be contained within the equipment module as long as the module remains sealed. For this reason,
any module carrying the yellow and black danger sign should not be opened. If the equipment is
suspected of failure, or is at the end of its life-cycle, it must be returned to Aerial Facilities Ltd for
disposal.
To return such equipment, please contact the Quality Department, who will give you a Returned
Materials Authorisation (RMA) number. Please quote this number on the packing documents, and on
all correspondence relating to the shipment.
PolyTetraFluoroEthylene, (P.T.F.E.) and P.T.F.E. Composite Materials
Many modules/components in AFL equipment contain P.T.F.E. as part of the RF insulation barrier.
This material should never be heated to the point where smoke or fumes are evolved. Any person
feeling drowsy after coming into contact with P.T.F.E. especially dust or fumes should seek medical
attention.
2.6. Laser Safety
General good working practices adapted from
EN60825-2: 2004/ EC 60825-2:2004
Do not stare with unprotected eyes or with any unapproved optical device at the fibre
ends or connector faces or point them at other people, Use only approved filtered or attenuating
viewing aids.
Any single or multiple fibre end or ends found not to be terminated (for example, matched, spliced)
shall be individually or collectively covered when not being worked on. They shall not be readily
visible and sharp ends shall not be exposed.
When using test cords, the optical power source shall be the last connected and the first
disconnected; use only approved methods for cleaning and preparing optical fibres and optical
connectors.
Always keep optical connectors covered to avoid physical damage and do not allow any dirt/foreign
material ingress on the optical connector bulkheads.
The optical fibre jumper cable maximum bend radius is 3cm; any smaller radii may result in optical
cable breakage or excessive transmission losses.
Caution: The FO units are NOT
weather proof.

4.2.1.1. Four Way Splitter/Combiner (05-003302)
The Splitter/Combiner used is a device for accurately matching two or more RF signals to single or
multiple ports, whilst maintaining an accurate 50Ω load to all inputs/outputs and ensuring that the
VSWR and insertion losses are kept to a minimum. Any unused ports should be terminated with an
appropriate 50 load.

4.2.1.2. Switched Attenuator 0.25Watt, 0 - 30dB (10-000701)
In many practical applications for Cell Enhancers etc., the gain in each path is found to be excessive.
Therefore, provision is made within the unit for the setting of attenuation in each path, to reduce the
gain.
Switched Attenuator 10-000701 provides attenuation from 0 to 30dB in 2 dB steps The attenuation is
simply set using the four miniature toggle switches on the top of each unit. Each switch is clearly
marked with the attenuation it provides, and the total attenuation in line is the sum of the values
switched in. They are designed to maintain an accurate 50 impedance over their operating
frequency at both input and output.

4.2.1.3. Dummy Load (80-007401)
When a combiner system is used to split or combine RF signals, in many cases it is most cost
effective to use a standard stock item 4, 6 or 8 port device where, in fact, only a 3 or 6 port device is
needed. In this case the Four Way Splitters (05-003302) each have two of their ports terminated with
Dummy Load (80-007401) in order to preserve the correct impedance of the devices over the
specified frequency range. This also has the advantage of allowing future expansion capability should
extra channels or other functions become necessary.

4.2.4.1. Single Mode Optical Splitter/Coupler (98-100001)
Single Mode Optical Splitter/Couplers are used whenever it is necessary to split or combine outputs
from optical transmitters or inputs to receivers. Operators should be aware that a small insertion loss
(typically 3-4dB) is common with these type of couplers.
Single Mode Optical Splitter/Coupler (98-100001) It is an O.E.M unit featuring almost negligible
insertion loss to the F/O signal. Extreme caution should be exercised when handling these devices.
Special attention should be shown to the connectors; repair of a broken Splitter/Coupler is not
possible; replacement is the only option.
In the two Fibre Optic Splitters (55-165507) in 800MHz KCRS Master Site (80-330651), Single Mode
Optical Splitter/Coupler (98-100001) is used to split the optical signal from the FO TX modules in F/O
Link Subsystem (98-700001) into two equal paths.

5.4.1.3. Bandpass Filter (02-007206)
The bandpass filters are multi-section designs with a bandwidth dependent upon the passband
frequencies, (both tuned to customer requirements). The response shape is basically Chebyshev with
a passband design ripple of 0.1dB. The filters are of slot coupled, folded combline design, and are
carefully aligned during manufacture in order to optimise the insertion loss, VSWR and
intermodulation characteristics of the unit. The tuned elements are silver-plated to reduce surface
ohmic losses and maintain a good VSWR figure and 50 load at the input and output ports.
Being passive devices, the bandpass filters should have an extremely long operational life and require
no maintenance. Should a filter be suspect, it is usually most time efficient to replace the module
rather than attempt repair or re-tuning.
No adjustments should be attempted without full network sweep analysis facilities to monitor both
insertion loss and VSWR simultaneously.

system, one linear, and one logarithmic. The AGC with logarithmic detector (17-001117) is fitted in the
uplink path and the AGC with linear detector (17-001109) is fitted in the downlink path
The AFL Automatic Gain Control system consists of two units, a detector/amplifier and an attenuator.
The detector/amplifier unit is inserted in the RF path on the output of the power amplifier, and the
attenuator is situated in the RF path between the 1st and 2nd stages of amplification.
17-001117 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the uplink and 17-001109 and 17-001201 are paired
for use in the downlink
The attenuator comprises a 50 P.I.N diode, voltage-variable attenuator with a range of 3 to 30dB.
The attenuation is controlled by a DC voltage which is derived from the associated detector controller
board.
Normally the attenuator is at minimum attenuation. The detector/amplifier unit monitors the RF level
being delivered by the power amplifier, and when a certain threshold is reached it begins to increase
the value of the attenuator to limit the RF output to the (factory set) threshold. Therefore overloading
of the power amplifier is avoided.
The factory set threshold is 1dB below the Enhancer 1dB compression point. Some adjustment of this
AGC threshold level is possible, a 10dB range is mostly achieved. It is not recommended under any
circumstances to adjust the AGC threshold to a level greater than the 1dB compression point as
system degradation will occur.

The detector comprises of a 50 transmission line with a resistive tap which samples a small portion
of the mainline power. The sampled signal is amplified and fed to a conventional half wave diode
rectifier, the output of which is a DC voltage proportional to the RF input signal.
This DC voltage is passed via an inverting DC amplifier with integrating characteristics, to the output,
which drives the attenuation control line of the corresponding AGC attenuator. This unit is fitted at
some earlier point in the RF circuit.
For small signals, below AGC onset, the output control line will be close to 12V and the AGC
attenuator will have minimum attenuation. As the signal level increases the control line voltage will
fall, increasing the attenuator value and keeping the system output level at a constant value.

that the main DC rail within the equipment can be sourced from either a mains driven PSU, or
externally through an XLR connector or from dual mains driven PSUs . They are very heavy-duty
diodes and they prevent any reverse current from flowing back to their source or the alternative
supply rail. Combining diodes such as these will also be used if the equipment is to be powered from

5.4.2.3. Bandpass Filter (02-007206)
The bandpass filters are multi-section designs with a bandwidth dependent upon the passband
frequencies, (both tuned to customer requirements). The response shape is basically Chebyshev with
a passband design ripple of 0.1dB. The filters are of slot coupled, folded combline design, and are
carefully aligned during manufacture in order to optimise the insertion loss, VSWR and
intermodulation characteristics of the unit. The tuned elements are silver-plated to reduce surface
ohmic losses and maintain a good VSWR figure and 50 load at the input and output ports.
Being passive devices, the bandpass filters should have an extremely long operational life and require
no maintenance. Should a filter be suspect, it is usually most time efficient to replace the module
rather than attempt repair or re-tuning.
No adjustments should be attempted without full network sweep analysis facilities to monitor both
insertion loss and VSWR simultaneously.

5.4.6.1. Single Mode Optical Splitter/Coupler (98-100001)
Single Mode Optical Splitter/Couplers are used whenever it is necessary to split or combine outputs
from optical transmitters or inputs to receivers. Operators should be aware that a small insertion loss
(typically 3-4dB) is common with these type of couplers.
Single Mode Optical Splitter/Coupler (98-100001) It is an O.E.M unit featuring almost negligible
insertion loss to the F/O signal. Extreme caution should be exercised when handling these devices.
Special attention should be shown to the connectors; repair of a broken Splitter/Coupler is not
possible; replacement is the only option.
In the Fibre Optic Splitter (55-165507) in 700MHZ KCM Master Site / Pioneer Sq. (80-330652), Single
Mode Optical Splitter/Coupler (98-100001) is used to split the optical signal from the FO TX module in

5.4.7.1. 2 Way Power Splitter/ Combiner 70/30 (05-009905)
The power Splitter/Combiner is a device for accurately matching two or more RF signals to single or
multiple ports, whilst maintaining an accurate 50Ω load to all inputs/outputs and ensuring that the
VSWR, return and insertion losses are kept to a minimum. Any unused ports will be terminated with
an appropriate 50Ω load. Power devices such as these, typically give 10dB better output isolation
than low power equivalents – (important for splitters that feed antenna systems).

6.3.1.3. Bandpass Filter (02-007206)
The bandpass filters are multi-section designs with a bandwidth dependent upon the passband
frequencies, (both tuned to customer requirements). The response shape is basically Chebyshev with
a passband design ripple of 0.1dB. The filters are of slot coupled, folded combline design, and are
carefully aligned during manufacture in order to optimise the insertion loss, VSWR and
intermodulation characteristics of the unit. The tuned elements are silver-plated to reduce surface
ohmic losses and maintain a good VSWR figure and 50 load at the input and output ports.
Being passive devices, the bandpass filters should have an extremely long operational life and require
no maintenance. Should a filter be suspect, it is usually most time efficient to replace the module
rather than attempt repair or re-tuning.
No adjustments should be attempted without full network sweep analysis facilities to monitor both
insertion loss and VSWR simultaneously.

6.3.1.5. Switched Attenuator 0.25Watt, 0 - 30dB (10-000701)
In many practical applications for Cell Enhancers etc., the gain in each path is found to be excessive.
Therefore, provision is made within the unit for the setting of attenuation in each path, to reduce the
gain.
Switched Attenuator 10-000701 provides attenuation from 0 to 30dB in 2 dB steps The attenuation is
simply set using the four miniature toggle switches on the top of each unit. Each switch is clearly
marked with the attenuation it provides, and the total attenuation in line is the sum of the values
switched in. They are designed to maintain an accurate 50 impedance over their operating
frequency at both input and output.

17-001201 AGC Attenuator Assembly
The sub components 17-001109, 17-001117 & 17-001201 are parts of the Automatic Gain Control
(AGC) system used in 800MHz FO HUB AMP (55-165501); 17-001117 and 17-001201 are paired for
use in the uplink and 17-001109 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the downlink
800MHz FO HUB AMP (55-165501) is fitted with two differing types of Automatic Gain Control (AGC)
system, one linear, and one logarithmic. The AGC with logarithmic detector (17-001117) is fitted in the
uplink path and the AGC with linear detector (17-001109) is fitted in the downlink path
The AFL Automatic Gain Control system consists of two units, a detector/amplifier and an attenuator.
The detector/amplifier unit is inserted in the RF path on the output of the power amplifier, and the
attenuator is situated in the RF path between the 1st and 2nd stages of amplification.
17-001117 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the uplink and 17-001109 and 17-001201 are paired
for use in the downlink
The attenuator comprises a 50 P.I.N diode, voltage-variable attenuator with a range of 3 to 30dB.
The attenuation is controlled by a DC voltage which is derived from the associated detector controller
board.
Normally the attenuator is at minimum attenuation. The detector/amplifier unit monitors the RF level
being delivered by the power amplifier, and when a certain threshold is reached it begins to increase
the value of the attenuator to limit the RF output to the (factory set) threshold. Therefore overloading
of the power amplifier is avoided.
The factory set threshold is 1dB below the Enhancer 1dB compression point. Some adjustment of this
AGC threshold level is possible, a 10dB range is mostly achieved. It is not recommended under any
circumstances to adjust the AGC threshold to a level greater than the 1dB compression point as
system degradation will occur.
The detector comprises of a 50 transmission line with a resistive tap which samples a small portion
of the mainline power. The sampled signal is amplified and fed to a conventional half wave diode
rectifier, the output of which is a DC voltage proportional to the RF input signal.
This DC voltage is passed via an inverting DC amplifier with integrating characteristics, to the output,
which drives the attenuation control line of the corresponding AGC attenuator. This unit is fitted at
some earlier point in the RF circuit.
For small signals, below AGC onset, the output control line will be close to 12V and the AGC
attenuator will have minimum attenuation. As the signal level increases the control line voltage will
fall, increasing the attenuator value and keeping the system output level at a constant value.

6.3.1.13. Dual Diode Assembly (94-100004)
The purpose of these dual diode assemblies is to allow two DC voltage sources to be combined, so
that the main DC rail within the equipment can be sourced from either a mains driven PSU, or
externally through an XLR connector or from dual mains driven PSUs. They are very heavy-duty
diodes and they prevent any reverse current from flowing back to their source or the alternative
supply rail. Combining diodes such as these will also be used if the equipment is to be powered from

7.4.1.3. Bandpass Filter (02-007206)
The bandpass filters are multi-section designs with a bandwidth dependent upon the passband
frequencies, (both tuned to customer requirements). The response shape is basically Chebyshev with
a passband design ripple of 0.1dB. The filters are of slot coupled, folded combline design, and are
carefully aligned during manufacture in order to optimise the insertion loss, VSWR and
intermodulation characteristics of the unit. The tuned elements are silver-plated to reduce surface
ohmic losses and maintain a good VSWR figure and 50 load at the input and output ports.
Being passive devices, the bandpass filters should have an extremely long operational life and require
no maintenance. Should a filter be suspect, it is usually most time efficient to replace the module
rather than attempt repair or re-tuning.
No adjustments should be attempted without full network sweep analysis facilities to monitor both
insertion loss and VSWR simultaneously.

7.4.1.5. Switched Attenuator 0.25Watt, 0 - 30dB (10-000701)
In many practical applications for Cell Enhancers etc., the gain in each path is found to be excessive.
Therefore, provision is made within the unit for the setting of attenuation in each path, to reduce the
gain.
Switched Attenuator 10-000701 provides attenuation from 0 to 30dB in 2 dB steps The attenuation is
simply set using the four miniature toggle switches on the top of each unit. Each switch is clearly
marked with the attenuation it provides, and the total attenuation in line is the sum of the values
switched in. They are designed to maintain an accurate 50 impedance over their operating
frequency at both input and output.

in the unit to ensure excellent linearity over a very wide dynamic range. The three active devices are
very moderately rated to provide a long trouble-free working life.
Its housing is an aluminium case (Iridite NCP finish) with SMA connectors for the RF input/output and
a D-Type connector for the power supply and the Current Fault Alarm Function.
There are no adjustments on this amplifier, and in the unlikely event of failure then the entire amplifier
should be replaced.

7.4.1.10. Automatic Gain Control
17-001109 AGC Detector Assembly (Logarithmic)
17-001117 AGC Detector Assembly
17-001201 AGC Attenuator Assembly
The sub components 17-001109, 17-001117 & 17-001201 are parts of the Automatic Gain Control
(AGC) system used in 800MHz FO HUB AMP (55-165501); 17-001117 and 17-001201 are paired for
use in the uplink and 17-001109 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the downlink
800MHz FO HUB AMP (55-165501) is fitted with two differing types of Automatic Gain Control (AGC)
system, one linear, and one logarithmic. The AGC with logarithmic detector (17-001117) is fitted in the
uplink path and the AGC with linear detector (17-001109) is fitted in the downlink path
The AFL Automatic Gain Control system consists of two units, a detector/amplifier and an attenuator.
The detector/amplifier unit is inserted in the RF path on the output of the power amplifier, and the
attenuator is situated in the RF path between the 1st and 2nd stages of amplification.
17-001117 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the uplink and 17-001109 and 17-001201 are paired
for use in the downlink
The attenuator comprises a 50 P.I.N diode, voltage-variable attenuator with a range of 3 to 30dB.
The attenuation is controlled by a DC voltage which is derived from the associated detector controller
board.
Normally the attenuator is at minimum attenuation. The detector/amplifier unit monitors the RF level
being delivered by the power amplifier, and when a certain threshold is reached it begins to increase
the value of the attenuator to limit the RF output to the (factory set) threshold. Therefore overloading
of the power amplifier is avoided.
The factory set threshold is 1dB below the Enhancer 1dB compression point. Some adjustment of this
AGC threshold level is possible, a 10dB range is mostly achieved. It is not recommended under any
circumstances to adjust the AGC threshold to a level greater than the 1dB compression point as
system degradation will occur.
The detector comprises of a 50 transmission line with a resistive tap which samples a small portion
of the mainline power. The sampled signal is amplified and fed to a conventional half wave diode
rectifier, the output of which is a DC voltage proportional to the RF input signal.
This DC voltage is passed via an inverting DC amplifier with integrating characteristics, to the output,
which drives the attenuation control line of the corresponding AGC attenuator. This unit is fitted at
some earlier point in the RF circuit.
For small signals, below AGC onset, the output control line will be close to 12V and the AGC
attenuator will have minimum attenuation. As the signal level increases the control line voltage will
fall, increasing the attenuator value and keeping the system output level at a constant value.

7.4.1.11. 12V (Dual) Relay Board (20-001601)
The General Purpose Relay Board allows the inversion of signals and the isolation of circuits. It is
equipped with two dual pole change-over relays with completely isolated wiring, accessed via screw
terminals. Both relays are provided with polarity protection diodes and diodes for suppressing the
transients caused by "flywheel effect" which can destroy switching transistors or induce spikes on
neighbouring circuits. It’s common use is to amalgamate all the alarm signals into one, volts-free relay
contact pair for the main alarm system.

7.4.1.14. Dual Diode Assembly (94-100004)
The purpose of these dual diode assemblies is to allow two DC voltage sources to be combined, so
that the main DC rail within the equipment can be sourced from either a mains driven PSU, or
externally through an XLR connector or from dual mains driven PSUs. They are very heavy-duty
diodes and they prevent any reverse current from flowing back to their source or the alternative
supply rail. Combining diodes such as these will also be used if the equipment is to be powered from
external back-up batteries.

No routine maintenance of the PSU is required. If a fault is suspected, then the output voltage from
the power supply may be measured on its output terminals. This is typically set to 12.2V. The
adjustment potentiometer will be found close to the DC output terminals.
All the PSUs used in AFL Cell Enhancers are capable of operation from either 110 or 220V nominal
AC supplies. The line voltage is sensed automatically, so no adjustment or link setting is needed by
the operator.
