1.1 About MA 1000
The MA 1000 provides enterprise level indoor coverage for a wide range of wireless services
over a single broadband infrastructure.
The MA 1000 is a single operator, multi-band system based on combining a number of services,
voice and data, and distributing them to each remote location through a common antenna
infrastructure. These include Cellular, Paging, Public Safety and LTE SISO signals.
Cellular services are bi-directionally transferred between the capacity source (BTS/BDA) and the
remote locations using low loss fiber and broadband COAX.
WLAN services from WiFi Access Points (802.11 a/b/g/n) can be integrated with the MA 1000
system at the remote sites for transport over a single cabling infrastructure to the antenna.
1.1.1 Features
• A multi-service platform that accommodates the combination of cellular and enterprise
services (e.g. WLAN, WMTS Telemetry and 900MHz Building Automation), eliminating the
need for separate overlay networks
• Carrier Class QoS – advanced signal handling and management ensures optimal performance
for all services
• Local and remote end-to-end monitoring and control through an interface to 410, 430 or SC-
450 system controller
• Low power system requirements eliminates the need for a high power capacity source’s,
reducing operator expenses
• Comprehensive conditioning and monitoring of RF signals at the head-end through an
interface to the Radio Interface Unit (RIU)
• Reduce cost through the support of multimode fiber
• Software programmable parameters including output power, AGC (on/off and levels), and
system gain
• Real time component setting capabilities for optimal performance
1.2 System Architecture
The MA 1000 solution is based on the following main elements:
• Base Units (BUs) – The BUs perform RF to optic conversion on the BTS side.
• MA Remote Hub Units (RHUs) 1000 – The MA 1000 performs the RF to optic signal
conversion at the antenna side for up to two services corresponding to the RHU model. A
third service can be added by connecting an add-on remote hub unit to the MA1000 RHU.
• Add On – Service specific module that provides support for an additional service to an
existing RHU.
• 700 LTE SISO add-on – add-on specifically designed to support LTE SISO in the 700 MHz
lower A, B and C blocks and the upper C block. (The LTE add-on model varies depending on
whether or not it is used in conjunction with the 700/800 Public Safety RHU).

Introduction to MA 1000 System
MA 1000 Installation and Configuration Guide 2
• 860 WLAN Solution – The 860 and WCE is a wireless LAN module that provides secure
and centralized connections for 802.11a/b/g Access Points and distributes the wireless
services over the same coax and broadband infrastructure as the voice services.
All services are combined and distributed through the same antenna broadband infrastructure.
To provide optimum coverage at all times and monitoring and control of all system elements from
a central location MA provides the following devices:
• Radio Interface Units (RIUs) – The RIUs provide interfaces for up to three BTS/BDA
signals, and automatically adjusts the output signal in response to input signal level in
order to provide optimal coverage.
• 410, 430 and SC-450 controllers – The controllers enable remote monitoring of the
system elements from a
single location
via advanced intuitive GUI.

1.4 Management
The MobileAccess family of Element Management System (EMS) Controllers provide complete site
coverage and management of the MA 1000 system. They can be used to provision coverage that
can compensate for changing loads. They also provide real-time monitoring, control and
diagnostics capabilities for
MobileAccess
devices from a single location.
• 410 – enables management of the 1000/2000 system components through a local RS-232 or
dial-up connection. It is also used as a slave controller to a 410, 430 or SC-450 controller to
expand the management system on a site. Management access is provided through the MCT
GUI application.
• 430 – enables management of the 1000/2000 system components through a local RS-232 or
dial-up connection. Management access is provided through the MCT GUI application or via
the NMS Server Software Application which communicates via SNMP over a Ethernet TCP/IP
connection. The 430 may also be monitored via a 3rd party SNMP application for receipt of
SNMP traps.
• SC-450 - enables management of the 1000/2000 system devices through local or remote
Ethernet TCP/IP connection. Management access is provided through a local and remotely
accessible web-GUI interface. The SC-450 may also be monitored via a third party SNMP
application for receipt of SNMP traps.
• MCT – a Java based GUI application provided with both controllers. MCT is used with
the 410 and 430 after the installation procedure to adjust MobileAccess devices according
to the installation site characteristics in order to optimize coverage for the site.
The application is installed and run from a computer that is connected either locally or via
remote dial-up modem to the 410 or 430 at the site.
• MobileAccess Manager™ – a Java based GUI software application that provides
enhanced monitoring and control capabilities for all your
1000/2000
sites from a single
location. The MobileAccess Manager application is not supplied with the controller – it
is

This chapter describes the MA 1000 system basic elements: remote modules (1000 RHU and
Add-on) and the Base Units. Your system may include additional elements such as 410, 430 and
SC-450 controllers, RIUs and 860 WLAN solution units; these are described in the corresponding
User Guides.
2.1 Remote Modules
The Optical to RF conversion of each service at the individual building floors is performed by
remote units corresponding to the service types. These consist of 1000 RHUs and in addition,
may include Add-on modules and 860 WLAN solution modules.
The configurations depend on the requirements of the site and the supported services. The
following sections describe each of the system elements.
NOTE: The connections as they relate to the MA 1000 system are described in Chapter
4 -
System Installation.
2.1.1 MA 1000 RHUs
Each RHU supports two different services (one high-band and one low-band). All RHUs are add-
on ready, meaning that their optic interface and control functionality can support a third (high-
power) service through the connections of an Add-on module (see section 4.3.2.1).
Each 1000 RHU is connected to the corresponding BU (located in the communication room)
through a fiber optic connection. Remote monitoring is provided through the BU connections to
the 410, 430 and SC-450 controller ( 1.4).
The 1000 RHU services, add-on service and data services (provided by 860 WLAN system) at
each location are combined and then transmitted over a common infrastructure to strategically
placed antennas.

2.1.2 Add-on
The MobileAccess Add-on module is a high power module, supporting a single frequency band
(low or high). It is designed to be integrated with a host
1000 RHU
module. The 1000 RHU
module provides the following functionality for both units:
• Optical interface (to the BU) and conversion
• RF interface (to antennas) and conversion
• Control signals
In addition, WLAN services can also be combined with Add-on and 1000 RHU services. (However,
in this type of configuration the combined services interface to the coax infrastructure through
the 860 ports.)
NOTE: The units are integrated through simple external cable connections between
corresponding ports.

2.2 Base Units
The BUs (Base Units) perform RF to optical conversion of the signal on the BTS/BDA side. Each
can support up to two services (provided by the same operator). Two models of BUs are
available: four-port unit – supporting four RHUs, and eight-port unit supporting up to eight RHUs.
The RHU models correspond to the services supplied through the BUs.
The BU (and all the corresponding remote units) may be remotely monitored and managed via
the 410, 430 and SC-450.
The BUs are usually installed in the telecom room adjacent to the BTS/BDA signal source. RF
ports on the rear panel provide interface to the BTS side (through connection to RIU or passive
interface), while optic ports on the front panel provide interface to the RHUs (Remote Units). The
following sections describe the BU front and rear panels, including indicators and connectors.

3.1 Infrastructure Preparation
This following installation rules are based on the assumption that site survey and installation
planning (
including power requirements
) have been completed.
3.2 Installation Requirements
The infrastructure preparation consists of two main phases:
A. Floor Planning: Planning the distribution of the antennas on each floor to provide the
required coverage.
B. Telecom Closet Planning: Planning the layout of the devices and cables in the telecom
closet or shaft. This includes the 860, 802.11 Access Points, cabling and other voice service
distribution systems that are relevant to the specific installation.
3.3 Coaxial Cable Connections
3.3.1 General Cable Installation Procedures
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).
Each length of cable from the risers to each antenna must be concealed above ceiling.
The cable must be properly supported and maintained straight using tie-wraps, 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.

3.3.2 Fiber Optic Rules
• Either single mode or multimode fiber can be used with MobileAccess 1000M products,
while MobileAccess 1000 products can only be used with single mode fiber.
• Only Multimode fiber, 50/125 or 62.5/125um complying with ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B series,
EN50173-1 or ISO/IEC 11801 can be used. The fiber length can be up to 300 meters
assuming the following qualifications:
All fiber in a given length of fiber must be of the same core diameter.
All Bulkhead adapters must be Single mode SC/APC (Green) adapters.
All terminations cross connections or patches must be direct fusion splice or
MobileAccess specified patch cords listed below.

• Use only 8-degree SC/APC connectors (green color).
• Use only fusion splice for connecting two fibers.
• Use minimum splicing/connectors to achieve minimum losses on the fibers (<0.5dB).
• Use precaution while installing, bending, or connecting fiber optic cables.
• Use an optical power meter and OTDR for checking the fiber optic cables.
• Make sure the environment is clean while connecting/splicing fiber optic cables.
• All fiber optic connections should be cleaned prior to attaching to termination points
using a dry cleaning device (i.e. Cletop or equivalent).
• Fiber connector protective caps should be installed on all non-terminated fibers and
removed just before they are terminated.
• Verify the Fiber Optic connections using a suitable fiber optic test procedure.
• Pay special attention while connecting the SC/APC connectors - you must hear the “click”
when the connection is made.

Site Preparation
MA 1000 Installation and Configuration Guide 14
3.3.3 RF Rules
• Use coax ½”, 50ohm, male-to-male N-type, (6-7dB for 1Ghz, 11dB for 2Ghz) for
connecting to RHU and RHU ports.
• Use coax RG223, 50ohm, male-to-male N-type for RF connections from the BUs to the
BTS/RBS and to the RIU.
• When using the MobileAccess 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 wideband antennas supporting a range of 800Mhz to 2500Mhz
• 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 RHUs in the
remote communication rooms
• Terminate all unused RHU and RIU ports with a 50 ohm load
3.4 Power Consumption, Connections and Power
Supplies
3.4.1 Power Safety Instructions
SAFETY WARNINGS
• When installing or selecting the power supplies:
• 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
• AC and DC power supply cables – use only the power cords supplied with the units
• Install external over-current protective devices for the system according to the
requirements described in section 3.4.3.

3.4.3 Circuit Breakers
Install fuse protections for the system according to the following criteria:
• The following system elements require external fuse protection: RIUs, BUs, 410, 430
and SC-450 Controllers.
• Referring to Table 3-1, calculate the required fuse protection.
• Example: a set of three elements consisting of a BU, RIU and 410, 430 or SC-450
controller requires a 2A circuit breaker.
3.4.4 Types of Power Supplies
MobileAccess supplies various power supplies that can be installed in a rack or mounted on a
wall, depending on your configuration.
3.5 Installation Conventions
Some of the basic installation conventions are listed below for the 1000 system:
• Base Units – are usually concentrated in the same location, most often in the main
communication room.
• Remote Hub Units usually placed in the communication shaft or closet of a
corresponding floor so they can be easily located. Each RHU can typically cover a floor of
up to 30,000 sq ft.
• Fiber optic cable - bundled fibers are terminated into the Base Units in the main
communication room. The fibers are then routed to each coverage location where
individual fibers terminate into splice boxes. The splice box couples the installed fiber
into the remote units. Enough spare fibers should be installed to take into account future
expansion of the system.
For example, for three remote units, six fibers are required. However, to allow for future
upgrades, it is recommended to install additional optic fibers to be connected to additional
RHUs.
![](/img.php?id=1243170&img=bg18.png)
Site Preparation
MA 1000 Installation and Configuration Guide 16
The following figure illustrates fiber optic routing sufficient to cover 21 floors: each group of
strands can cover three floors as illustrated below, with two strands to spare. The first group
of strands coves floors 1, 2 and 3; the next group will cover floors 4, 5 and 6 through an
additional splice box.
Figure 12. Illustration of Fiber Optic Routing
• For remote power supply configuration - cable bundles are routed from the main
communication room and individual wire pairs are terminated into the power feed of
individual units.
By providing power from a single distribution point, maintenance can be reduced and UPS
backup can be easily provided. The maximum distance from the source to the termination
spot is 1000 feet using 18 gauge wires.
In many locations local codes do not require power to be run through conduit if 100 watts or
less is used. Please consult the regulations in your local jurisdiction prior to deploying remote
power. When power cables require distances greater than 1000 feet 14 or 16 gauge wire
may be used.
• On each floor - the antennas are connected to the RHUs using coax cables.

4.1 Overview
This chapter describes how the communication room and remote locations are installed. The
individual system elements are described in Chapter 2. In order to describe the installation
process clearly, it will be described as consisting of two logical parts:
A. Telecommunications room – installing the RIUs, BUs, 410, 430 and SC-450
controllers, and the required
passive equipment
in the telecommunication room
close to the RF signal source. This installation may differ between single and multi-
building topologies.
B. Remote locations – RHU and Add-on installations and connections. These are
usually
wall mounts.
The installations for two basic topologies are described in detail: for single building and for multi-
building. By understanding the two generic installations you will be able to address any variations
in system deployment.
4.2 Communication Room Installation
It is recommended to install the following MobileAccess system modules in a 19” rack in the
communication room
• RIU 3U
• BU 1U
• 410, 430 and SC-450 controller 1U
• Fiber Optic patch panel and splice tray
• Power supply/supplies

4.2.1 Rack Installation General Instructions
Verify that the rack height can support all the units to be installed, where you may also want to
consider future expansions.
Figure 13 shows the recommended physical location of the MobileAccess elements in the rack in
order to facilitate and simplify 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.
NOTE: Note that the 410, 430 SC-450 controller is at eye level to provide an easy view of the
LED indicators and LCD display and easy access to the local and remote monitoring connections.

4.2.2 Rack Installation Safety Instructions
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.
4.2.3 Single Building Rack Installation
This section provides an example of a single building main communication room installation
for a 24-floor building with Cellular and PCS coverage.
Since there are 24 floors, then 24 RHUs are required – one for each floor. In addition, the
following equipment will be installed in the main communication room:
• Three BUs – to support 24 RHUS
• One 430 controller for monitoring
• One RIU with Cellular and PCS BTSCs – to interface to the BTS/BDA

MA 1000 Installation and Configuration Guide 20
4.2.4 Multi-Building Rack Installation
The figure below provides an example of a multi-building solution which distributes two bands
from a main site over two remote sites up to 20Km away. The 330 units extend the RF signal
from the Main to the Remote buildings over a single strand of fiber. Uplink and downlink signal
are placed on the single fiber at 1310 and 1550 respectively.
The 330 system provides flexible solutions for various site requirements. The figure below
illustrates two types of installations:
• Remote Building 1 – installation in a remote location with several Base Units. For clarity,
the example shows two Base Units. However, the configuration applies to a maximum of four
(8-port) Base Units that are supported using a 330 Expansion Box.
The 330 Remote unit forwards the signals as follows:
• Service signals to the Base Units
• Control signals from Master Controller at the main site to the 410 Slave Controller at the
remote site. The Base Units are controlled through the 410 controller.
• Building 2 – special installations in a remote location with
a single
Base Unit. The 330
Remote unit forwards both the service and the control signals from the main building
directly
to the Base Units. Note that a
410 Controller is not required in this type of installation.
