5. Insert the optical transceiver into the socket until it locks into place.
6. Replace the optical transceiver dust cap if it was removed for installation.
7. Repeat procedure for each optical transceiver that requires installation.
8. Install a port cover (see Figure 18) over each unused optical transceiver socket.
4.8 Ports 1–6 Optical Connections
The optical interface between the DHU and each DEU or DRU is supported by six optical
ports. Each of the six optical ports provides a duplex LC-type optical transceiver which is
mounted on the DHU front panel. One side of the transceiver provides the optical fiber
connection for the forward path (downlink) signal. The other side of the transceiver provides
the optical fiber connection for the reverse path (uplink) signal. Use the following procedure to
install the forward and reverse path optical fibers and to connect them to the DHU:
Danger: This equipment uses a Class 1 Laser according to FDA/CDRH rules. Laser radiation
can seriously damage the retina of the eye. Do not look into the ends of any optical fiber. Do
not look directly into the optical transceiver of any digital unit or exposure to laser radiation
may result. An optical power meter should be used to verify active fibers. A protective cap or
hood MUST be immediately placed over any radiating transceiver or optical fiber connector
to avoid the potential of dangerous amounts of radiation exposure. This practice also prevents
dirt particles from entering the transceiver or connector.
1. Obtain the required lengths of single- or multi-mode fiber optic cable.
2. Route the fiber optic cable between the DHU and the DEU or DRU (if not already
routed) and cut to required length. Allow sufficient slack for dressing and organizing the
cables at each unit. Maintain a minimum bend radius of 2 inches (50 mm).
Note: The maximum path lengths for the optical fibers are as follows: 500 meters (1,641
feet) for 62.5 micron core multi-mode fiber, 750 meters (2,461 feet) for 50 micron core
multi-mode fiber, and 10 km (32,808 ft) for 9 micron core single-mode fiber.
3. Terminate each optical fiber with a field-installable LC type fiber optic connector as
shown in Figure 19. Follow the instructions provided by the connector manufacturer for
installing the connector.
4. Test each fiber for optical loss as described in Subsection 6.4.2 of this manual.
5. Designate one of the fibers as the forward path fiber and the other as the reverse path
fiber and label both ends of each fiber with the path designation.
6. Use the plastic joiner provided with the LC connectors to join the DHU Port 1 forward
and reverse path connectors together (see Figure 19). Make sure the forward path and
reverse path connectors are oriented as shown.
Note: When viewing any Port 1-6 optical transceiver from the front, the forward path port is
on the left and the reverse path port is on the right as shown in Figure 20. In addition, singlemode transceivers are colored blue and multi-mode transceivers are colored black or beige.
Both single- and multi-mode transceivers may be mounted on the same DHU.

7. Remove the dust caps from the optical fiber connectors and the port 1 optical transceiver.
Note: Leave the dust cap in place on any unused optical transceiver.
8. Clean each connector (follow connector supplier’s recommendations) and then insert the
optical fiber connector pair into DHU optical port 1 (see Figure 19).
9. Place the optical fibers within the cable guides provided on the cable management tray (see
Figure 19) and then dress and secure the fibers at the DHU per standard industry practice.
10. Connect the forward and reverse path optical fibers to the DEU or the DRU as specified
in the instructions provided with that unit.
11. Use the designation card provided (see Figure 19) to indicate the location and name of
the DRU or DEU that is connected to each optical fiber pair. The designation card holder
may be attached to any convenient flat surface such as the DHU cable management tray
12. Repeat steps 1–11 for each remaining optical port.
4.9 DC Power Connections
The DC power interface between the DHU and each DRU is supported by six RJ-45 female
connectors. Each DHU RJ-45 connector provides nominal 48 Vdc power for the associated
DRU except when the DRU is powered with an ac/dc converter. A category 3 or 5 twisted pair
cable is used to feed the power from the DHU to the DRU. Use the following procedure to
install the DC power cable and to connect it to the DHU.
1. Obtain the required length of category 3 or 5 twisted pair cable.
2. Route the cable between the DHU and the DRU (unless already routed) and then cut to
required length. Allow sufficient slack for dressing and organizing the cable at the DHU.
Note: The maximum distance for routing power cable is 500 meters (1,641 feet).
3. Terminate each end of the cable with a male RJ-45 connector. Match the wire color to
the connector pin as specified in Table 6.
Caution: The DRU will be damaged if the RJ-45 connector is wired incorrectly.
4. Perform a continuity test to verify that each wire is properly connected to the terminating
RJ-45 connector and check the connector for correct polarity (see diagram in Table 6).

4.10 External Alarm System Connections
The alarm interface between the DHU and an external alarm system is supported by a sixterminal plug (with screw-type terminals) that connects to a receptacle mounted on the DHU
front panel. The terminal plug provides connections to normally open (NO) and normally
closed (NC) dry type alarm contacts for both minor and major alarms. A category 3 or 5 cable
is typically used to connect the DHU to the external alarm system. Use the following
procedure to install the alarm wiring and connect it to the DHU:
1. Obtain the required length of category 3 or 5 cable.
2. Route the cable between the DHU and the external alarm system (if not already routed)
and then cut to required length. Allow sufficient slack for dressing and organizing the
cable at the DHU.

5.3 Test System Performance
Testing the performance of the system involves completing various RF tests and telephone
service tests that verify if the system is functioning properly. Use the following procedure to
test the system performance:
1. Verify that the forward path (downlink) input signal level at the DHU is optimized. The peak
COMPOSITE forward path input signal level at the DHU should be set at –20 dBm.
Note: In a CDMA system, the power level is dependent on the traffic. For optimum
operation in a CDMA system, the input signal level should be set below the level of the
pilot signal.
2. Verify that the reverse path (uplink) signal level at the local BTS or donor antenna is
optimized. Note that the reverse path output signal level required is dependent on service
provider signal to noise requirements, ICS system noise floor, the service provider
equipment, and the system configuration.
3. Check and record the Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) and any spurious
emission levels at and between all DRU antennas. Analyze all DRU’s and the DHU
interface using a spectrum analyzer.
4. Plot the RSSI levels on a floor plan of the building and check against the pre-installation
RSSI levels to determine the overall and average RSSI improvement attributed to the
Digivance ICS. Check the entire Digivance coverage area.
5. Verify call processing and voice quality within the coverage areas. Initiate and receive
multiple long and short duration calls. Document the performance and address any issues
as calls are processed within the entire coverage area. Assuming a properly functioning
server RF link and BTS and a properly designed and optimized ICS system, there should
be no clicks, mutes, clipping, or crackles within the coverage area. In a wireless office
application, hand off will not occur.
6. If the DHU interfaces with a local BTS (microcell), verify the handoff function by
placing a call and confirming handoffs between the Digivance/microcell coverage area
and the outdoor macrocell coverage area (macro system) and vice versa. The handoff
should take place without any noticeable call quality or performance issues.
7. If the DHU interfaces with a remote BTS through a donor antenna, verify call quality by
placing a call and then walking between the Digivance coverage area and an area
receiving good coverage directly from the cell site base station. There should be no
noticeable difference in call quality.
8. Following service provider guidelines, test the 411 and 911 links to verify the routing of
emergency and special services calls on local BTS configurations.
9. Verify that the alarm reporting system functions properly by turning the DHU off. This
should generate a major and minor alarm and operate both the major and minor alarm
contacts. Check for alarm confirmation from the service provider’s local switch and
Network Operations Center (NOC). Note that this tests only the external alarm system
and does not verify operation of the Digivance alarm reporting system.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
This section explains the alarm reporting system, provides a method for isolating and
troubleshooting faults, and provides procedures for replacing the modular transceivers and the
DHU or DEU cooling fans.
The Digivance ICS requires no regular maintenance to insure continuous and satisfactory
operation. Maintenance, as it applies to the Digivance ICS, primarily involves diagnosing and
correcting service problems as they occur. When an alarm is reported, it will be necessary to
follow a systematic troubleshooting procedure to locate the problem. Once the source of the
problem is isolated, the appropriate corrective action can be taken to restore service. The only
unit components that can be replaced are the cooling fans that mount in the DHU and DEU
and the modular optical transceivers. The failure of any other component within a unit will
require replacement of that unit.
6.1 Tools and Materials
The following tools and materials are required in order to complete the procedures in this
section:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
ESD wrist strap
IR filtering safety glasses
Optical loopback device (such as Stratos Lightwave LC5 series) and LC duplex adapter
Optical power meter
Magnification device for inspecting LC connectors
Laser light source
Multimeter
Cell phone
RJ-45 circuit access tool (such as the Harris 8-wire Banjo Adapter)
Medium and small size flat-bladed screwdrivers
TORX screwdriver (T10)
6.2 Fault Detection and Alarm Reporting
Detection of a fault by the Digivance ICS will generate an external alarm response. LED
indicators are provided on the front panel of the various units to indicate when a fault is
detected. In addition to LED indicators, the DHU also provides normally open (NO) and
normally closed (NC) dry alarm contacts for reporting minor and major alarms to an external
alarm system. A minor alarm is defined as a high temperature condition. A major alarm is
defined as any fault condition except high temperature.
When the DHU alarm contacts are connected to an external alarm system, detection of a fault
will generate an alarm at the Network Operations Center (NOC). However, various types of
faults may not generate an alarm response. In this case, the first indication of a problem will
probably be from cell phone users reporting a loss of service or poor service. Whenever a
problem is reported, whether by a external alarm system or by a call from a user, refer to
Subsection 6.3 to isolate and correct the fault.

ADCP-75-136 • Issue 1 • November 2002
6.3 Fault Isolation and Troubleshooting
Fault isolation and troubleshooting guidelines are provided in Tables 11, 12, 13, and 14. When an
alarm is reported, determine the type of alarm generated (minor or major) and then check the LED
indicators on the DHU and note any that are red, yellow, or off. If any of the Port 1–6 OK/NOK
LED indicators on the DHU are red or yellow, also check the LED indicators on the connected
DEU’s and/or DRU’s and note if any are red or yellow. Start the troubleshooting process at the
DHU and then work toward the unit where the alarm originated. The troubleshooting tables are
organized according to unit type. Locate the problem in the appropriate table, check out the
suggested possible causes, and take corrective action as required.
Figure 24 shows two basic ICS system configurations. The troubleshooting tables list possible
causes for various problems. If the cause of a particular problem is specific to either of the two
system configurations shown in Figure 24, the type of system configuration (1 or 2) will be
referenced in the table.

6.4 Test Procedures
6.4.1
Optical Loopback Test Procedure
Dirty optical connectors, a faulty optical transceiver, a break in an optical fiber, or a fault in an
optical connector will interrupt communications between fiber-linked components. Use the
following procedure to determine if a fault exists with an optical port or with an optical fiber:
Danger: This equipment uses a Class 1 Laser according to FDA/CDRH rules. Laser radiation
can seriously damage the retina of the eye. Do not look into the ends of any optical fiber. Do
not look directly into the optical transceiver of any digital unit or exposure to laser radiation
may result. An optical power meter should be used to verify active fibers. A protective cap or
hood MUST be immediately placed over any radiating transceiver or optical fiber connector
to avoid the potential of dangerous amounts of radiation exposure. This practice also prevents
dirt particles from entering the transceiver or connector.
1. Put on the IR filtering safety glasses.
2. At the DHU or supporting DEU, place the PORT ON/OFF switch for the fiber port or
fiber to be tested in the OFF position (press O).
3. Disconnect the optical connectors for the fiber port to be tested and place a dust cap over
each connector.
4. Plug a loopback into the optical port to be tested as shown in Figure 25.

6. The PORT OK/NOK LED will turn either blinking red or green. If the LED turns
blinking red, the optical port is faulty. Replace the optical transceiver and then recheck
system operation. If the LED turns green, the optical port is good. Proceed to step 7 to
continue the test procedure.
7. Place the PORT ON/OFF switch in the OFF position (press O).
8. Disconnect the loopback from the DHU or supporting DEU.
9. Clean and then reconnect the optical fiber connectors to the DHU or DEU optical port.
10. Disconnect the optical connectors at the DRU optical port or remote DEU host port (far
end of fiber).
11. Clean the optical fiber connectors and then using an LC optical adapter, connect the
loopback to the connectors as shown in Figure 26.
NOTE: iF THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE DHU/DEU AND THE
DRU EXCEEDS THE DISTANCE SHOWN BELOW, THE
REMOTE LOOPBACK TEST WILL NOT WORK.

14. The PORT OK/NOK LED will turn either blinking red or green. If the LED turns
blinking red, one of the optical fibers is faulty. Refer to Subsection 6.4.2 to isolate which
fiber is at fault. If the LED turns green, the optical fibers are good. Proceed to step 14 to
finish the test procedure.
15. At the DHU or supporting DEU, place the PORT ON/OFF switch in the OFF position
(press O).
16. Disconnect the loopback and the optical adapters from the optical fiber connectors.
17. Place a dust cap over the connector for each optical fiber
18. Remove the dust plug from the DRU optical port or remote DEU host port.
19. Plug the loopback into the DRU optical port or DEU host port as shown in Figure 27.
20. If testing a DRU that is powered by the DHU or by a supporting DEU, place the PORT
ON/OFF switch in the ON position (press I).

6.4.2
Optical Loss Test Procedure
A break in an optical fiber or a fault with the optical connector will interrupt communications
between linked components. Use the following procedure to isolate a problem with an optical
fiber or optical connector:
Danger: This equipment uses a Class 1 Laser according to FDA/CDRH rules. Laser radiation
can seriously damage the retina of the eye. Do not look into the ends of any optical fiber. Do
not look directly into the optical transceiver of any digital unit or exposure to laser radiation
may result. An optical power meter should be used to verify active fibers. A protective cap or
hood MUST be immediately placed over any radiating transceiver or optical fiber connector
to avoid the potential of dangerous amounts of radiation exposure. This practice also prevents
dirt particles from entering the transceiver or connector.
1. Put on the IR filtering safety glasses.
2. At the DHU or supporting DEU, place the PORT ON/OFF switch for the optical fiber to
be tested in the OFF position (press O) if not already off.

3. Disconnect the optical connectors at the DHU or supporting DEU and at the
corresponding DRU or remote DEU.
4. Inspect the optical connectors. Verify that each connector is clean and that no scratches
or imperfections are visible on the fiber end. Clean and polish the optical connector if
necessary.
5. Connect a laser light source to one end of the first optical fiber and an optical power
meter to the other end.
6. Verify that the power loss is within specifications (8 dB loss) for the length of the fiber
installed. If the power loss is not within specifications, repair or replace the optical fiber
and/or connector per local practice.
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for the second optical fiber.
8. Reconnect the optical connectors at the DHU or supporting DEU and the corresponding
DRU or remote DEU.
9. At the DHU or supporting DEU, place the PORT ON/OFF switch for the fiber that was
tested in the ON position (press I).
