4 HU MOUNTING PROCEDURE
The HU may be mounted in either a19-inch or 23-inch EIA or WECO equipment rack. Both
US standard and metric machine screws are included for rack mounting the HU. When loading
the HU in arack, make sure the mechanical loading of the rack is even to avoid ahazardous
condition such as aseverely unbalanced rack. The rack should safety support the combined
weight of all the equipment it holds. In addition, maximum recommended ambient temperature
for the HU is 50º C(122º F). Allow sufficient air circulation or space between units when the
HU is installed in amulti-rack assembly because the operating ambient temperature of the rack
environment might be greater than room ambient.
Use the following procedure to install the HU in the equipment rack:
1. The HU is shipped with the mounting brackets installed for 19-inch rack installations. If
mounting the HU in a19-inch rack, proceed to step 4. If mounting the HU in a23-inch
rack, proceed to step 2.
2. Remove both mounting brackets from the HU (requires TORX screwdriver with T20 bit)
and save screws for reuse.
Warning: Wet conditions increase the potential for receiving an electrical shock when
installing or using electrically powered equipment. To prevent electrical shock, never install or
use electrical equipment in awet location or during alightning storm.
Note: To insure that all optical connectors remain dust-free during installation, leave all dust
caps and dust protectors in place until directed to remove them for connection.

5. Route the free end of the chassis grounding wire to an approved (per local code or
practice) earth ground source.
6. Cut the chassis grounding wire to length and connect it to the approved ground source as
required by local code or practice.
6 COAXIAL CABLE CONNECTIONS
The RF interface between the HU and the BTS is supported through either two (non-diversity)
or three (diversity) type Nfemale connectors mounted on the HU front panel. On non-diversity
units, one connector provides the coaxial cable connection for the forward path (downlink)
signal and the other connector provides the coaxial cable connection for the reverse path
(uplink) signal. On diversity units, athird connector provides the coaxial cable connection for
the diversity reverse path (uplink) signal.
Note: Be sure to maintain reliable grounding. Pay particular attention to ground source
connections.

In many installations, it is usually necessary to install an external attenuator in the forward path
link between the HU and the BTS. The procedure for determining the value of the external
attenuator is provided in SECTION 4: OPERATION. The HU should be mounted as close as
possible to the BTS to minimize cable losses. Use the following procedure to route the forward
and reverse path coaxial cables and connect them to the HU:
1. Obtain the required lengths of high performance, flexible, low loss 50-ohm coaxial
communications cable (RG-400 or equivalent) for all coaxial connections.
2. Route the forward and reverse path coaxial cables and the diversity reverse path cable (if
the HU supports diversity) between the HU and the BTS interface (per system design plan)
and cut to the required length. Allow sufficient slack for dressing and organizing cables at
the HU and for installing an external attenuator in the forward path link.
3. Terminate each cable with atype Nmale connector following the connector supplier’s
recommendations.
4. Connect the forward path cable to the FORWARD RF IN connector on the HU front
panel as shown in Figure 3-8.
Figure 3-8. Forward and Reverse Path Coaxial Cable Connections
5. Connect the reverse path cable to the REVERSE RF OUT connector on the HU front
panel (see Figure 3-8).
6. If the HU supports diversity, connect the diversity reverse path cable to the REVERSE 2
RF OUT connector on the HU front panel (see Figure 3-8).
7. Dress and secure cables at the HU.
8. Complete all remaining coaxial connections at the BTS interface as specified in the system
design plan.

7 OPTICAL CONNECTIONS
The optical interface between the HU and the RU is supported by either two (non-diversity) or
three (diversity) optical ports. Each optical port consists of an SC optical adapter which is
mounted on the HU front panel. Port 1provides the optical fiber connection for the forward path
(downlink) signal. Port 2provides the optical fiber connection for the reverse path (uplink)
signal. Port 3provides the optical fiber connection for the diversity reverse path (uplink) signal.
The optical connections are dependent on whether or not aWDM (optional accessory) is
installed. If the installation does not include aWDM, proceed to Section 7.1 for the optical
connections procedure. If the installation does include aWDM, proceed to Section 7.2 for the
optical connections procedure.
7.1 Optical Connections Without WDM
Use the following procedure to connect the optical fibers when aWDM is not installed with the
HU:
1. Obtain two (non-diversity) or three (diversity) patch cords that are of sufficient length to
reach from the HU to the fiber distribution panel.
2. Designate one of the patch cords as the forward path link and the other as the reverse
path link and attach an identification label or tag next to the connector. For diversity
systems, designate and label or tag athird patch cord as the diversity reverse path link.
3. Remove the dust caps from the HU optical ports and from the patch cord connectors that
will be connected to the HU.
4. Clean each patch cord connector (follow connector supplier’s recommendations) and then
insert the connector into the appropriate optical port as shown in Figure 3-9 and as
specified by the following:
Port 1 - Forward path patch cord
Port 2 - Reverse path patch cord
Port 3 - Diversity reverse path patch cord
5. Route the patch cords from the HU to the fiber distribution panel.
Danger: This equipment uses aClass 1Laser 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 transmitter of any unit or exposure to laser radiation may result.
An optical power meter should be used to verify active fibers. Aprotective cap or hood MUST
be immediately placed over any radiating transmitter or optical fiber connector to avoid the
potential of dangerous amounts of radiation exposure. This practice also prevents dirt particles
from entering the connector.
Note: The HU optical adapters are angled to the left.Therefore, patch cords should always
be routed to the HU from the left side of the rack. Routing patch cords to the HU from the
right side of the rack may exceed the bend radius limitations for the optical fiber.

6. Identify the OSP cable optical fiber terminations that correspond to the RU.
7. Designate one of the OSP fibers as the forward path link and the other as the reverse
path link and attach an identification label or tag next to the connector. For diversity
systems, designate and label or tag athird fiber as the diversity reverse path link.
8. Remove the dust caps from the OSP cable optical fiber adapters and from the patch cord connectors.
9. Clean each patch cord connector (follow connector supplier’s recommendations) and then
mate the connector with the appropriate OSP cable adapter.
10. Store any excess patch cord slack at the fiber distribution panel.
7.2 Optical Connections With WDM
Use the following procedure to connect the optical fibers when aWDM module is installed with
the HU:
1. Obtain apatch cord that is of sufficient length to reach from the WDM module to the fiber
distribution panel.
2. Remove the dust cap from one of the two optical ports on the WDM module and from the
patch cord connector that will be connected to the WDM module.
