Note: Keep all packing material until you have completed the inspection

Warnings and Admonishments

There may be situations, particularly for workplace environments near high-powered RF sources, where recommended limits for safe exposure of human beings to RF energy could be exceeded. In such cases, restrictive measures or actions may be necessary to ensure the safe use of RF energy.

The equipment has been designed and constructed to prevent, as far as reasonably, practicable danger. Any work activity on or near equipment involving installation, operation or maintenance must be, as far as reasonably, free from danger.

Where there is a risk of damage to electrical systems involving adverse weather, extreme temperatures, wet, corrosive or dirty conditions, flammable or explosive atmospheres, the system must be suitably installed to prevent danger.

Equipment provided for the purpose of protecting individuals from electrical risk must be suitable for the purpose and properly maintained and used. This covers a range of activities including lifting, lowering, pushing, pulling, carrying, moving, holding or restraining an object, animal or person from the equipment. It also covers activities that require the use of force or effort, such as pulling a lever, or operating power tools.

Where some of the above mentioned activities are required, the equipment must be handled with care to avoid being damaged. Observe standard precautions for handling ESD-sensitive devices. Assume that all solid-state electronic devices are

ESD-sensitive. Ensure the use of a grounded wrist strap or equivalent while working with ESD-sensitive devices. Transport, store, and handle ESD-sensitive devices in static-safe environments.

• Fiber optic ports of the ONE™ system emit invisible laser radiation at the 1310/1550 nm wavelength window.

• External optical power is less than 10 mW, Internal optical power is less than 500 mW.

• To avoid eye injury never look directly into the optical ports, patchcords or optical cables. Do not stare into beam or view

directly with optical instruments. Always assume that optical outputs are on.

• Only technicians familiar with fiber optic safety practices and procedures should perform optical fiber connections and

disconnections of ONE™ devices and the associated cables.

• ONE™ has been tested and certified as a Class 1 Laser product to IEC/EN 60825-1 (2007). It also meets the requirements

for a Hazard Level 1 laser product to IEC/EN 60825-2: 2004 to the same degree.

• ONE™ complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 except for deviations pursuant to Laser Notice NO. 50 (2007).

Care of Fiber Optic Connectors

• Do not remove the protective covers on the fiber optic connectors until a connection is ready to be made. Do not leave

connectors uncovered when not connected.

1.1 About Corning ONE™

The Corning Optical Network Evolution Platform (ONE) by Corning provides a flexible in-building RF and network digital coverage solution based on a fiber optic transpor t bac kbone.

The fiber-optics infrastructure is easily deployable via a wide range of pre-terminated composite cables and advanced end-to-end equipment. Easy to design, Plug and Play™ connectors, significantly reduce installation cost and deployment time.

The Corning ONE solution is an ideal fit for large, high-rise or campus-style deployments. It generates significant CAPEX savings and OPEX savings through the use of user configurable service distribution groups and an infrastructure that is simple to deploy and efficient in usage.

Dynamic service distribution group management allows precise service distribution control to meet changing density needs, and provides further savings by enabling sharing of equipment at various levels for service providers.

Radio source agnostic, remote units can be used as network extenders. Ethernet capability with dedicated fiber link for Wi-Fi offload brings a higher level of granularity and support for devices and applications with very high speed requirements.

Corning ONE fiber-optics infrastructure allows various combinations of SISO and MIMO services to be routed from the headend to specified remote locations on each floor, according to user defined configurations (via the Web Management GUI). This allows optimizing service coverage and provides equipment savings. While the fiber-optics infrastructure is common, the services can be routed via service provider shared or dedicated equipment. By default, the system is configured to support a single service group: all services are transferred to all remote locations. This default configuration can be easily modified according to site requirements.

The following figure illustrates service distribution from the head-end to various locations on each remote floor. Each color represents a specific service, where different combinations of services are distributed at various locations on the same floor according to coverage requirements.

1.3.6 System Architecture and Topologies

The Corning ONE™ solution fiber-optic infrastructure is used to transmit both RF and digital services:

• RF services – Broadband RF distribution over fiber-optics infrastructure transfers converged wireless services from the headend towards Remote Access Units (RAU) deployed at the remote end locations according to user defined configuration.

• Digital services – fiber-optics infrastructure transfers digital services from the corporate LAN to Gigabyte Ethernet Modules (GEM) and then 3

party equipment deployed on each floor.

Table 1-18. Acronyms in System Architecture

1.3.6.1 RF Path

At the headend, RF signals from the RF signal sources (e.g. BTS/BDA) are conditioned by service specific (conditioner) modules in the HEU (Headend Unit) and organized into (up to three) user configurable sectors. The conditioned RF signals are converted to optic signals by the (wideband) OIU (Optic Interface Unit) and specific sectors are routed towards selected remote locations according to user defined configurations.

The optic fibers at the OIU are routed to the ICU (Integrated Centralized Unit) at the remote end. From the ICU the optic fibers are distributed along with DC to the Remote Access Units (RAU).

For small/medium size deployments an IHU (Integrated Headend Unit) can be installed at the headend. The IHU is a compact headend unit that interfaces up to eight RF sources, conditions the signals and performs the RF to optic conversion of the signals which are then routed towards the remote site.

Note: A fully occupied OIU (12 OIMs) supports up to 36 RAUs; Each IHU can support up to eight OIMs (with four RIMs)

supporting up to 24 RAUs.

Introduction CMA-331-AEN Page 24

Draft

1.3.6.2 Digital Path

The Digital services from the corporate LAN (received via Ethernet Switch) are converted to optic signals by the CEU (Centralized Ethernet Unit) and routed over optic fibers towards the GEM units. The optical traffic is then converted to 1GbE by the GEM (Gigabit Ethernet Modules) modules and distributed to two third party equipment such as Access Points, Ethernet switch, etc.

Note: GEMs can be connected to the CEU either directly, or via an ICU (described in section 1.3.6.1 ). In that case, the ICU can

also provide DC to the GEMs.

1.5 User Controlled Service Group Distribution

ONE™ fiber-optics infrastructure allows various combinations of SISO and MIMO services to be routed from the headend to specified remote locations on each floor, according to user defined configurations. This allows optimizing service coverage and provides equipment savings. While the fiber-optics infrastructure is common, the services can be routed via service provider shared or dedicated equipment. By default, the system is configured to support a single service group: all services are transferred to all remote locations. This default configuration can be easily modified according to site requirements.

Figure 1-7. Illustration of Service Group Distribution

Introduction CMA-331-AEN Page 28

Draft

1.5.1 MIMO Configurations

MIMO topologies provide more density by using two independent RF paths for the same service, where the independent paths are implemented by dedicated modules along the path.

MIMO configuration is implemented by routing the two RF bands over dedicated RF paths at both the entry point (in the Headend Unit) and at the exit point (at the Remote Unit). Note that the Optical Interface Unit is wideband and the services are combined in a single OIM for routing to the same Remote End Unit. At the Remote End Unit, the services are distributed by two dedicated modules.

Note: MIMO configuration can also be implemented by two separate Remote End Units.

Figure 1-8. Example of MIMO Configuration

1.5.2 Single Service Group Example

In this example, all four services (A,B,C,D) are routed to all (up to 72) remote locations. In the illustrated topology, a single HEU conditions the services and feeds them to two OIU systems for conversion to optic signals. Each OIU supports up to 36 RAU (Remote Access Units).

Figure 1-9. Single Service Group Configuration

Introduction CMA-331-AEN Page 29

Draft

1.5.3 Dual Service Group Example

In this example, two service groups are defined: A,B,C and C,D. Note that a service can be allocated to any of the service groups at the same time. For example, service C is allocated to both service groups. Both service groups are routed to the OIU for optic conversion. Each OIU module (OIM) can be configured to support either one or (if they do not have a common band) to both service groups and the corresponding services are routed from the OIM to its hosted RAU units.

NOTE: In the example below, band C is common to both Service groups #1 and #2; therefore, an OIM cannot be assigned both

service groups (i.e. ABC + CD).

Figure 1-10. Example of Dual Service Group Configuration

1.5.4 Tri Service Group Example

In this example, three service groups are defined: ABC, AB, CD. Note that a service can be allocated to any of the service groups at the same time. For example, services C and B are allocated to two of the service groups. The services are routed to the OIU for optic conversion. Each Optical Interface Module (OIM) can be configured to be included in either one, two or three service groups in any combination and the corresponding services are routed from the OIM to its hosted RAU units.

Note: An OIM cannot support two service groups that hav e a common band (e.g. ABC and BC, or ABC and CD).

Figure 1-11. Example of Three Service Group Configuration

Introduction CMA-331-AEN Page 30

Draft

1.5.5 Tri Service Group Example with Two HEUs

This tri-service group example supports two HEUs. In this topology, the services routed via the two HEUs can be grouped in any combination between the two, providing up to three service groups. These groups of services are all routed towards a common OIU. Each OIU module (OIM) can be configured to support any (legal) combination of service groups and the corresponding services are routed from the OIM to its hosted RAU units.

Note: Multiple service groups allocated to the same OIM cannot share any identical frequency bands.

4 Installation Guidelines

The following installation assumes that site survey and installation planning (including power requirements) have been completed. This includes planning the distribution of antennas to provide the required coverage, as well as planning the layout of the devices and cables in the telecom closet or shaft.

4.1 Infrastructure Preparation

The following installation rules are based on the assumption that the site survey and installation planning (including po wer requirements) have been completed.

4.2 Installation Requirements

The infrastructure preparation consists of two main phases:

Floor Planning: Planning the distribution of the Remote Access Units (RAUs) on each floor to provide the required coverage.

Telecom Closet Planning: Planning the layout of the devices and cables in the telecom closet or shaft. This includes all

cabling and other voice service and digital coverage distribution systems that are relevant to the specific installation.

4.3 Safety Guidelines

Before installing the equipment review the following safety information:

• Follow all local safety regulations when installing the equipment.

• Only qualified personnel are authorized to install and maintain the Repeater.

• Ground specified equipment with the provided grounding bolt

• Do not use the grounding bolt to connect external devices.

• Follow Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) precautions.

• Use low loss cables to connect the antennas

4.4 Rack Installation Guidelines

These guidelines are relevant to the system components which are installed in 19-inch communication racks: RF Path components: HEU, OIU and ICU; Digital Coverage components: CEU

• Verify that the rack height can support all the units to be installed, where you may also want to consider future installations. Figure 4-1 shows an example of a rack configuration for the RF path components at the headend which facilitates and simplifies the cabling connections.

• The configuration is for a single operator. If the site is serviced by more than one operator, each operator often installs their equipment in a separate rack. Refer to section 5.1.1.2 for 4x4 HEU-OIU rack installation configurations (maximum configuration including four HEU and four OIU units).

Figure 4-1. Example of Communication Rack Installation

4.4.1 Rack Safety Instructions

The following guidelines are relevant to the rack installed units. Review the following guidelines to help ensure your safety and protect the equipment from damage during the installation.

• Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install or replace this equipment.

• Verify that ambient temperature of the environment does not exceed 50°C (122° F)

• To maintain a low center of gravity, ensure that heavier equipment is installed near the bottom of the rack and load the rack

from the bottom to the top.

• Ensure that adequate airflow and ventilation within the rack and around the installed components so that the safety of the equipment is not compromised. It is recommended to allow for at least about 2 cm of airspace between devices in the rack.

• Verify that the equipment is grounded as required – especially the supply connections.

4.5 Power Requirements

This section summarizes the power requirements of all Corning ONE™ RF and digital coverage devices.

4.5.1 Power Safety Instructions

SAFETY WARNINGS! When installing or selecting the power supplies:

• Use only the power cables (AC and DC) and any other relevant accessories provided with the unit to connect the power supply to the ONE™ units.

• Be sure to disconnect all power sources before servicing.

• Calculate the required power according to the requirements of the specific installation and then determine the configuration

of the power supplies. The required DC cables will then be determined by the selected PS configuration.

• Use only UL approved power supplies

• Install external over-current protective devices for the system according to the requirements described in section 1.3.3 -

Power .

• For GE U-S units – 3 to Fire” requirement (clause 4.7) of the IEC/EN/UL60950-1 standard.

4.5.2 Types of Power Supplies

4.6 RF Coaxial Cable Guidelines

4.6.1 General Cable Installation Procedures

Note: The installer should be familiar with the ANSI/TIA/EIS-568 Cabli ng Sta ndard gui del in es . Observe the general cable installation procedures that meet with the building codes in your area. The building code requires

that all cabling be installed above ceiling level (where applicable). The length of cable from the risers to each antenna must be concealed above the ceiling.

The cable must be properly supported and maintained straight using velcro cable ties, cable trays and clamps or hangers every 10 feet (where practical above ceiling level). Where this is not practical, the following should be observed:

• The minimum bending radius of the supplied ½” coax cable should be 7”.

• Cable that is kinked or has a bending radius smaller than 7” must be replaced.

• Cable runs that span less than two floors should be secured to suitably located mechanical structures.

• The cables should be supported only from the building structure.

• All cables shall be weather-resistant type

• Cable length - determined by the system installation plan. When calculating the cable length, take into account excess cable

slack so as not to limit the insertion paths.

4.6.2 RF Rule s

• Use coax RG-223, 50 ohm, male-to-male N-type to QMA for RF connections from the RIMs to the BTS/RBS and to the RAUs.

• When using the Corning system in an environment in which other indoor coverage systems are installed, it is recommended (where possible) that the antennas are placed at least two meters apart

• When bending coax cables, verify that the bending radius does not exceed the coax specifications.

• Use a VSWR meter (i.e. Site Master or equivalent) for checking coax cables, including the antennas. (<2). The VSWR must

be measured prior to terminating the RAUs at the remote locations
