Product Description
Introduction
This manual provides information and procedures for installation, operation, and maintenance of the
OS-1933-E0-003 Multi-Carrier Power Amplifier (MCPA) Outdoor Booster System.
Scope of Manual
This manual is intended for use by service technicians familiar with similar types of equipment. It contains
service information required for the equipment described and is current as of the printing date. Changes which
occur after the printing date may be incorporated by a complete manual revision or alternatively as additions.
General Description
The outdoor system (OS), shown in Figures 1-1 through 1-4, is a three-way system operating in a 60MHz
transmit frequency band from 1930 to 1990MHz with an instantaneous bandwidth of any 60MHz within the
operating transmit band and an uplink frequency range of 1850 to 1910 MHz.
The OS has a sturdy aluminum IP55 rated cabinet with front and rear locking hinged doors equipped with
intrusion alarms. The door latches are 1/4 turn and require a 10 mm hex socket wrench or nut driver to open
and close. The doors can be secured with a padlock with a 1/2 inch maximum shank diameter. The front and
rear doors contain removable, washable air filters.
Bolt inserts located on the cabinet side and bottom panels are for mounting the OS to a secure fixed location.
RF connections are located on the interface bulkhead plate at the bottom rear of the cabinet. External power,
communications, and alarm cables are routed through access holes located adjacent to the bulkhead. Cabinet
ground is also located next to the interface bulkhead.
The OS system provides three forms of alarm reporting; Form-C contact closure, ethernet (web page), and
wireless modem.
Major features of the OS cabinet include the following:
❑
❑
❑
❑
❑
Up to three MCPAs. (one per sector, up to 160W)
Three RF Conditioning Units (RFCU).
One Control Module
One power system containing up to four rectifier modules.
Two variable-speed fan assemblies, front and rear doors.
MCPA
The MCPA module, shown in Figure 1-5, is a 1900 MHz RF amplifier. The MCPAs operational features include
a front panel RF OFF/ON/RESET switch and a multicolored LED indicator to display system status. MCPA
faults are reported via the status alarm web page.
RF Conditioning Unit (RFCU)
The RF Conditioning Unit (RFCU) shown in Figure 1-6 combines up to four separate BTS feeds; two duplexed
and two simplexed. The RFCU combines, attenuates, and conditions the RF signals. If a critical system failure
occurs, the RFCU places the system into bypass mode. The RFCU has two Low Noise Amplifier Units with
adjustable gain, each located between the output and input duplexer on the RX path and the diversity RX path.
Performance of the RFCU is monitored and reported via the Ethernet web pages. Faults from the RFCU are
mapped to Form-C and optional wireless modem alarms.

Scope of Manual
Controller Module
The Controller Module shown in Fig. 1-7 provides control and monitoring of the OS operation through two
Ethernet ports, Form-C alarms, external alarm inputs and LED status indicators. Status and configuration
details are available through Ethernet web pages.
Power System
The power system shown in Figure 1-8, contains up to four +28.5 VDC plug-in 1300 watt rectifier modules.The
rectifier modules convert the system AC input power to supply +28.5 VDC to each MCPA and the Controller
Module. Performance of the power system is monitored and reported via the Ethernet web pages. Power
system faults are mapped to Form-C and optional wireless modem alarms
TMA Supply
The two Rx channels per sector provide DC power via Bias-Ts to external Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMA)
modules. Each channel is programmable via the Ethernet web pages. The Control Module monitors and
reports DC current. Loss of current or excessive current generates a fault and disables the channel. All fault
modes are continuously monitored for fault auto recovery. TMA power is provided independent of the bypass
status.
Fans
The system is cooled by two variable speed DC fans, located on the front and rear doors, providing air flow
through the booster cabinet. The fans draw ambient air through a filter mounted in the front panel vents and
send heated air out the filter mounted in the rear panel. The variable speed fans are dependant on the MCPA,
power system, Controller Module temperature sensors, and door intrusion status. Fan operation is disabled
when any door opens. Pulling out the door intrusion switch plunger emulates a door closure and activates the
fan operation. The variable speed fans maintain adequate cooling by operating at the slowest possible speed.
All temperature sensors are monitored by the Control Module and the hottest device controls the fan speed.
Fan speed increases or decreases by one step per one minute.
Ethernet Web Pages
The Ethernet web pages are accessible via the front panel Ethernet port on the Controller Module. Use a web
browser to view the following pages:
❑
❑

Status/Static - Displays current firmware and user controllable configurations.
Status/Dynamic - Displays the operator performance of the system in real time.
Status/Alarm - Displays the status of all the individual alarm parameters.
User - Displays Unique I.D. about this system and password entries.
System/Configuration - Displays and allows modification to system configurations.
System/Download - Firmware related interface.
Form-C Alarms
The Form-C method includes four alarm levels detailing alarm severity as follows:
❑
❑
❑
1-2
Minor - System requires maintenance.
Major - System operating but not at optimum performance.
Critical (one per sector, three total)- System disabled and bypass active due to a loss
of Tx or Rx.

External Alarms
The OS booster is capable of monitoring and reporting external Form-C alarms. Four channels are provided
and each channel is programmed via the Controller Module for NO or NC conditions. For example, NO will
fault when shorted to Common (C) and NC will fault when open to Common (C).The four channels are mapped
to Form-C alarm outputs configured as such via the Ethernet web pages.

• Review any government and local codes applicable to this installation.
• Read the instructions in Chapter 3 before operating the equipment.
Site Survey
Powerwave recommends that a site survey be performed prior to equipment ordering or installation to reduce
or eliminate installation and turn-on delays. Note power plant capacity, cooling, RF/AC cabling/breaker
requirements, clearances for proper cooling airflow and maintenance access. System dimensions and weights
are listed in Chapter 5, Table 5-2.
Unpacking and Inspection
Perform the steps in Table 2-1: to unpack and inspect the Outdoor System (OS).
Table 2-1: Unpacking and Inspection Instructions
Step
Action
Open the containers and carefully remove the cabinet, MCPAs, RFCUs and Rectifier Modules
Visually inspect the outdoor system for shipping damage. Check for evidence of water damage,
bent or warped chassis, loose screws or nuts, or extraneous packing material in connectors.
Inspect the equipment in the presence of the delivery person if possible
Retain all packing material that can be reused to return components to the factory
If the equipment is damaged, a claim should be filed with the carrier when the extent of any damage is
assessed. Contact the factory for a return material authorization (RMA). Refer to Chapter 4.
Electrical Service Recommendations
The base station AC supply to each OS should have a single phase UL listed AC circuit breaker rated at least
30 amps. The AC supply also requires UL listed external surge protection rated 2500 Vpk or less for 150 to 300
VAC mains installed in accordance with Article 285 of ANSI/NFPA or applicable local codes.

Installation Instructions
CAUTION: After commissioning, ensure that all power cable and control cables are properly sealed to prevent moisture and contaminants from entering the cabinet.
The outdoor system is designed for installation in an exterior location. The outdoor system must be installed in
a designated location that permits access to the lower rear of the cabinet for connection of AC power, RF,
communications, and alarm cables. In hot climate environments, shading of the outdoor system is
recommended to reduce external heating of the cabinet.
Verify sufficient space is available in front of the cabinet to remove and replace the MCPA, RFCU, and rectifier
modules and allow free movement of ambient air through the front panel air intake and rear panel exhaust
vents. The front door must swing open at a 135 degree angle to allow removal of the MCPAs. Cabinets must
have at least 11 inches clearance from the mounting surface if mounted on the left side (facing unit) to allow for
door swing. Recommended minimum clearances for the front of the cabinet is 36 inches and 20 inches for the
rear of the cabinet. Refer to Tables 2-3 and 2-4 respectively for the materials and tools required for a typical
outdoor system installation. Refer to Chapter 5 for system dimensions and typical mounting examples.

Initial Start-Up Procedure
Ensure that the OS System is installed per Chapter 2. The OS System should have AC, RF interfaces and
possible communication and alarm interfaces. All the required Rectifier, MCPA and RCFU modules are
installed. This section walks through the initial power-up and configuration sequence.
CAUTION: Before applying power, refer to Chapter 5 for input power requirements and verify that the OS
system input and outputs are properly terminated at 50 ohms. Do not operate the OS system without a
load attached. Excessive input power may trigger the overpower alarm disabling or damaging the OS system.
When OS systems are enabled, at least one cabinet door must be closed and secured to provide adequate
cooling.
All three OS system slots must be populated with an MCPA, Rectifier, or a blank panel to provide adequate
cooling air circulation.
NOTE: The OS system must be warmed up for a minimum of two minutes prior to setting power levels.
Failure to properly warm the components may result in lower output power when the components reach
operating temperature.
Table 3-1 Initial Start-Up Procedure
Steps
Action
Ensure that the AC is connected and disabled to the OS system
Ensure that the TX/RX ANT port is terminated properly
Open the front and rear door of the OS system. Pull-out the plungers for both front and rear
intrusion switches. (Note: this is the only time when both doors should be open).
Ensure all unused sectors have blank panels installed.
Enable the AC power.
Upon power-up the fans will both enable at full speed and then ramp down and possibly
disable. Ensure both fans operate.
Measure the primary AC voltage (180 to 265VAC). If the AC voltage is above or below the
limits consult an Electrician before proceeding.

functioning sectors. Alarms may be present; the configuration portion of the installation should
be performed.
OS System Configuration
Configure PC for Communication
Powerwave products typically have two LAN connections for interfacing with the customer’s equipment for
control and monitoring of the product, see Figure 3-1. The “Site LAN” is used to interface with the customer’s
base station (BTS) equipment for remote control and monitoring and the “Local LAN” is used for walk up or
local control and monitoring. The Site LAN IP address is assigned automatically by DHCP. The Local LAN IP
address is fixed from the factory at 192.168.255.1. To communicate with the product via the Local LAN, the
user must configure the laptop with a fixed IP address such as “192.168.255.2”.
There are several ways to access the Network Connections dialog box and may be different from operating
system to operating system. The following steps in Table 3-2 and Figures 3-1 through 3-6 are based on using
