Preface

1 Preface

This Reference Manual is valid for the Ericsson GSM system BSS R8 except for the description of GSM 800, which is valid from BSS R9.

For the RBS 2000 library structure, see Figure 1 on page 16.

1.1 Objectives

This manual is a detailed overview of the Ericsson RBS 2000 Macro system based on 12–TRX cabinets for GSM 800, GSM 900, GSM 1800 and GSM 1900. The manual describes RBS 2106 and RBS 2206, and comprises the following:

•

Preface (chapter 1)

• RBS 2000 General information (chapters 2 – 3):

System Speciﬁcations and Requirements.

•

RBS 2000 Hardware descriptions (chapters 4 – 5): System overviews and hardware conﬁgurations.

•

Unit descriptions (chapters 6 – 14)

• Function Speciﬁcations (chapters 15 – 51):

Provide detailed information about the RBS from a functional point of view. The Function Speciﬁcations are customer-adapted and give a deeper understanding of the behaviour of the RBS.

•

BTS Parameter Limitations (chapter 52): State conﬁgurable BTS parameters for RBS 2000. BTS

parameters with limitations compared with the parameter ranges in the Abis O&M IWD are stated in this chapter.

•

Glossary (chapter 53)

1.2 Target Groups

Customers and Ericsson personnel involved in RBS activities.

1.3 RBS 2000 Library Overview

In addition to this the product fulﬁlls the environmental requirements. The RBS is so designed and constructed that, under all conditions of

normal use and under a likely fault condition, it protects against personal injury from electrical shock and other hazards.

The RBS is protected against serious ﬁre originating in the equipment as well as mechanical hazards in the equipment, as well as mechanical hazards in the meaning of the applicable standard.

For the US the following standards are applicable:

•

UL 1950 "Safety of Information Technology Equipment Including Electrical Business Equipment".

For Canada the following standards are applicable:

•

CAN/CSA-C22.2 No 1-M94 Audio, Video and Similar Electronic Equipment.

3 Environmental Capabilities

3.1 Scope

This chapter covers the environmental requirements for the indoor and outdoor temperature non-controlled operation conditions. Subjects covered are: Climatic, Biological, Chemically active substances, Mechanically active substances and Mechanical conditions.

3.2 Terminology

Deﬁnition of concepts:

Normal operation conditions

Environmental conditions where all units shall be able to function as speciﬁed.

Safe function

Environmental stress above the limits for normal operation where all units shall continue to function during the stress, but performance or capacity may be reduced.

Reduction of performance or capacity shall be documented as typical value.

When the environmental stress has dropped to normal operation conditions, function as speciﬁed shall automatically be achieved.

Safe function refers to an operation period of not more than 72 consecutive hours, and a total of not more than 15 days in one year.

Non-destruction

Environmental stress above the limits for safe function during which no function is guaranteed and performance may degrade in an unspeciﬁed manner.

When the environmental stress has dropped to normal operation conditions, no manual intervention (on site) is needed to restore full performance of the RBS.

Non-destruction refers to an operation period of not more than 96 consecutive hours, and a total of not more than 5.5 days in a 3 years period.

GSM concepts

The GSM concepts for Normal operation and Extreme operation conditions as deﬁned in GSM 11.20-12.3.2 are both equal to the Normal condition as deﬁned and used in this document. This means, all RF parameters are guaranteed within the Normal condition range as deﬁned in this document.

3.4.1 General Conditions

The severity of the requirements is in conformity with: IEC 721-3-2 classes 2K4/2B2/2C2/2S2/2M2. and ETS 300 019-1-2 Class 2.3 "PUBLIC transportation".

These requirements are valid for equipped cabinets (excluding batteries). The values in these conditions are valid for a maximum transport time of 3 months. The time is measured from the packages are leaving the shipping store, and includes storing in connection with the transport.

Note: These requirements restrict ﬂight transportation to aircrafts

with pressure cabins. As modern aircrafts have pressure cabins, these limitations are expected to be only formal.

Note: The severity levels are chosen with equipped cabinets in

mind. Therefore transport of equipment outside the cabinets can result in extremes. These extremes shall be handled by its own packing.

3.4.2 Climatic conditions

During transportation the equipment could be exposed to extremes in temperature and humidity. The equipment shall be packaged. The equipment shall be operational after being subjected to the ambient temperature and humidity stated hereafter.

The severity of these requirements are in conformity with: IEC 721-3-2 class 2K4. and ETS 300 019-1-2 Class 2.3.

This clause refers to the environment which an RBS for indoor use shall endure.

Note: The different operating temperature levels according to Safe

function and Non destruction, refer to situations where the RBS is supposed to have been operating in "normal condition" mode for a certain time. Then the surrounding temperature in the compartment increases (decreases) according to this ﬁgures. Accordingly, this means that the surrounding temperature is allowed to change within the limits while the RBS still operates and has its own loss of energy.
