ADMONISHMENTS
Important safety admonishments are used throughout this manual to warn of possible hazards to
persons or equipment. An admonishment identifies a possible hazard and then explains what
may happen if the hazard is not avoided. The admonishments — in the form of Dangers,
Warnings, and Cautions — must be followed at all times. These warnings are flagged by use of
the triangular alert icon (seen below), and are listed in descending order of severity of injury or
damage and likelihood of occurrence.
Danger: Danger is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will cause severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
Warning: Warning is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that can cause severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
Caution: Caution is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will or can cause minor
personal injury or property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
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 adapter or connector.
Danger: Do not look into the ends of any optical fiber. Exposure to laser radiation may result.
Do not assume laser power is turned-off or the fiber is disconnected at the other end.
Danger: 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 a wet location or during a lightning storm.
Warning: The HU is powered by 48 VDC power which is supplied over customer-provided
wiring. To prevent electrical shock when installing or modifying the HU power wiring,
disconnect the wiring at the power source before working with uninsulated wires or terminals.
Caution: Always allow sufficient fiber length to permit routing of patch cords and pigtails
without severe bends. Fiber optic patch cords or pigtails may be permanently damaged if bent
or curved to a radius of less than 2 inches (50 mm).

INTRODUCTION
This section provides basic description, application, and configuration information about the
Digivance single band SMR Dual Transmit Long-Range Coverage Solution (LRCS).
Throughout this publication, all items referenced as “accessory items” are not furnished with
the basic product and must be purchased separately.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The Digivance single band SMR Dual Transmit LRCS is an RF signal transport system that
provides long-range RF coverage in areas where it is impractical to place an Extended Base
Transceiver Station (EBTS) at the antenna site. High real estate costs and community
restrictions on tower and equipment locations often make it difficult to install the EBTS at the
same location as the antenna. The Digivance LRCS is designed to overcome equipment
placement problems by allowing base stations to be hubbed at a central location while placing
remote antennas at optimum locations with minimal real estate requirements. With the
Digivance LRCS, RF signals can be transported to one or more remote locations to expand
coverage into areas not receiving service or to extend coverage into difficult to reach areas such
as canyons, tunnels, or underground roadways.
2.1
Basic Components
The basic components of a Digivance LRCS system and their functions are shown in
Figure 1-1. A single band LRCS system consists of the Host Unit (HU) and the Remote Unit
(RU). Control and monitoring functions are provided by the Digivance Element Management
System (EMS). In addition, various accessory items including a back-up battery kit (for the
RU), a Wave Division Multiplexer (WDM) module (for the HU and RU), network cables (for
connecting multiple HU’s together), and EMS cable (for connecting the EMS computer to the
HU) are available separately.

Extended Base Transceiver Station Interface
The HU is co-located with the EBTS and interfaces directly with the EBTS over coaxial cables.
In the forward path, the HU receives RF signals from the EBTS. The HU digitizes the RF
signals and then converts them to digital optical signals for transport to the RU. In the reverse
path, the HU receives digital optical signals from the RU. The HU converts the digital optical
signals back to RF signals for transmission to the EBTS.

2.3
Handset Interface
The RU interfaces with the handsets through a pair of antennas. In the reverse path, the RU
receives RF signals from each handset. The RU digitizes the RF signals and then converts them
to digital optical signals for transport to the HU. In the forward path, the RU receives digital
optical signals from the HU. The RU converts the optical signals to RF signals for transmission
to the handsets. The RU is connected to a pair of antennas which transmit and receive the
handset RF signals.
2.4
Local Service Interface
Local communications with an individual Digivance LRCS system is supported through a local
service interface capability. The primary component of the local interface is a PC-type laptop
computer loaded with the Digivance Element Management System (EMS) software. The EMS
provides the various control and monitoring functions required for local management of each
LRSC system. The EMS computer can be directly connected to either the HU or RU through the
computer’s RS-232 port. Operation is effected through the EMS Maintenance Interface (MI).
The MI is a graphical user interface that consists of a series of screens from which the user
selects the desired option or function. An RS-232 service port is provided on both the HU and
the RU for connecting the EMS computer.
2.5
Remote NOC Interface
Remote communications between a Network Operations Center (NOC) and a networked system
of multiple Digivance LRCS systems is supported by a remote NOC interface capability. The
primary component of the remote NOC interface is a PC-type desktop computer loaded with the
Digivance Element Management System (EMS) software. In addition to the local management
functions described in the previous section, the EMS also provides the various control and
monitoring functions required for remote management of multiple LRSC systems through a
NOC.
A Controller Area Network (CAN) port is provided on each HU so that up to fifteen HU’s can
be networked together in daisy-chain fashion and controlled though the same EMS computer.
The EMS computer connects to the networked HU’s through the computer’s RS-232 port #1.
All HU’s can then be controlled through the same EMS computer.
The NOC is connected to the EMS computer through a data network or dial-up modem. The
EMS computer’s RS-232 port #2 interfaces with the data network equipment. The network or
dial-up modem equipment must be capable of interfacing with an RS-232 ASCII interface port.
At the NOC, control and monitoring of the networked LRCS systems are effected through a
Network Element Manager (NEM) interface which requires only a VT100 terminal/emulator
for operation. The NEM interface language consists of simple ASCII text strings. All
communications are input as either SET or GET commands which result in ASCII text string
responses from the specified system or systems. The EMS computer may also be used locally to
manage the networked LRCS systems. Local operation is through the EMS software MI.

SYSTEM FUNCTIONS AND FEATURES
This section describes various system level functions and features of the Digivance LRCS.
3.1
Fiber Optic Transport
In a typical LRCS system, the HU is connected to the RU over three single-mode optical fibers.
One fiber is used to transport the forward path optical signal. A second fiber is used to transport
the reverse path optical signal. The third fiber is used to transport the diversity reverse path
optical signal. Because the optical signal is digital, the input and output RF signal levels at the
HU or the RU are not dependent on the level of the optical signal or the length of the optical
fiber. A diagram of the fiber optic transport system for a typical SMR LRCS system is shown in
Figure 1-2.

Figure 1-2. Typical Fiber Optic Transport System
The maximum length of the optical fibers is dependent on the loss specifications of the optical
fiber and the losses imposed by the various connectors and splices. The SMR LRCS system
provides an optical budget of 17 dB (typical) when used with 9/125 single-mode fiber.
The optical wavelengths used in the system are 1550 nm for the forward path and 1310 nm for
the reverse path. Because different wavelengths are used for the forward and reverse paths, a
pair of bi-directional wavelength division multiplexers (WDM) may be used in applications
where it is desirable to combine the forward path and primary reverse path optical signals on a
single optical fiber. One WDM may be mounted with the HU and the other WDM mounted with
the RU. A diagram of a fiber optic transport system that uses WDM’s is shown in Figure 1-3.
The WDMs are available as accessory items.

Control and Monitoring Software
The Digivance EMS software supports system control and monitoring functions for both the
local and remote service interfaces. The EMS software is stored on a CD-ROM and shipped
separately with each HU. Software installation consists of copying the software files from the
CD-ROM to a designated directory on the hard-drive of the EMS computer. The EMS software
may also be copied to the hard-drive of a laptop computer when a local service interface
connection with a specific HU or RU is required.
The EMS software is used to provision and configure the system for operation. This includes
selecting a sitename, setting alarm thresholds, and setting forward and reverse path RF gain
adjustments. The EMS software is also used to get alarm messages (individual or summary),
data measurements, or to upgrade the HU/RU system software. All control and monitor
functions (except software upgrade which can only be done using the EMS software MI) can be
effected using either the NOC/NEM interface or the EMS software MI.
3.3
Fault Detection and Alarm Reporting
LED indicators are provided on the front panel of the HU and on the front panels of the RU
modules to indicate if the system is normal or if a fault is detected. In addition, normally open
and normally closed alarm contacts (for both major and minor alarms) are provided at the HU
for connection to a customer-provided external alarm system. All alarms can also be accessed
through the NOC/NEM interface or the EMS software MI.
3.4
Powering
The HU is powered by ±24 or ±48 Vdc and must be hard-wired to a local office battery power
source through a fuse panel. The RU is powered by 120 or 240 Vac (50 or 60 Hz) and must be
hard-wired to the AC power source through a 20 Amp breaker box. The RU is pre-wired for 120
Page 1-5

ADCP-75-134 • Issue A • April 2002 • Section 1: Overview
Vac operation but can be converted to 240 Vac operation if required. The RU is equipped with a
surge protector to prevent equipment damage from AC power spikes and a lighting protector to
prevent equipment damage from lighting surges. A 120 Vac outlet is provided within the RU
cabinet for powering for test equipment or power tools. On an optional basis, a back-up battery
kit is available for the RU. The battery-backup system powers the RU if the AC power source is
disconnected or fails.
3.5
Equipment Mounting and Configuration
The HU is designed for mounting in a non-condensing indoor environment such as inside a
wiring closet or within an environmentally-controlled cabinet. The HU is intended for rackmount applications and may mounted in either a 19- or 23-inch WECO or EIA equipment rack,
usually within 20 feet of the EBTS.
The RU is designed for mounting in either an indoor or outdoor environment. The RU consists
of a Spectrum Transport Module (STM), a Linear Power Amplifier (LPA) module, Dual
Duplexer/Splitter (DDS), and a self-contained cabinet which houses the various RU
components and protects them from the elements. The RU cabinet is weather-tight but contact
with salt-air mist should be avoided as it may degrade the MTBF of the product. The cabinet
can be mounted from a flat-vertical surface or a utility pole (requires pole-mount kit). Slots are
provided within the cabinet for mounting the STM and LPA modules. A mounting bracket is
included with the DDS for securing it to the bottom of the cabinet. A storage spool is provided
for storing short lengths of excess fiber slack. A bracket is provided for mounting a WDM
module (accessory item). A tray with a heated base is provided for mounting the back-up
battery (accessory item).

INTRODUCTION
This section describes the basic components of the Digivance LRCS including the Host Unit
(HU), the Remote Unit (RU), and the Element Management System (EMS). Note that the RU is
actually an assembly that consists of a cabinet, a Spectrum Transport Module (STM), and a
Linear Power Amplifier (LPA) module. For clarity, the various components that comprise the
RU are described separately.
HOST UNIT
The HU, shown in Figure 2-1, serves as the EBTS servicing unit for the Digivance LRCS. The
HU provides the following basic functions:
• Provides an adjustable RF interface with the EBTS.
• Provides a fiber optic interface with the RU.
• Digitizes the forward path composite RF signal.
• Converts the digitized forward path RF signal to a digital optical signal.
• Converts the digitized reverse path optical signal to a digitized RF signal.
• Converts the digitized reverse path RF signal to a composite RF signal.
• Signals alarm information to an external alarm system through relay contact closures
• Provides an RS-232 interface for connecting the EMS computer.
• Provides a CAN interface for networking multiple HUs.

2.1
Primary Components
The HU consists of an electronic circuit board assembly and a fan assembly that are mounted
within a powder-coated sheet metal enclosure. The enclosure provides a mounting point for the
circuit board and fan assemblies and controls RF emissions. The only user-replaceable
component is the fan assembly. The HU is designed for use within a non-condensing indoor
environment such as inside a wiring closet or cabinet. All controls, connectors, and indicators
(except the power terminal strip) are mounted on the HU front panel for convenient access.
Cable management functions for the coaxial cables and copper wiring are provided by a cable
management tray that extends outward from the HU front panel.

Mounting
The HU is intended for rack-mount applications. A pair of reversible mounting brackets is
provided that allow the HU to be mounted in either a 19-inch or 23-inch EIA or WECO
equipment rack. When installed, the front panel of the HU is flush with the front of the rack.
The cable management tray extends 3.9 inches (99 mm) beyond the front panel. Fasteners are
provided for securing the HU to the equipment rack.
2.3
Fault Detection and Alarm Reporting
The HU detects and reports the following faults: host unit fault, optical fault, power fault,
temperature fault, and RF fault. Various front panel Light Emitting Diode (LED) indicators turn
from green to red or yellow if a fault is detected. A set of alarm contacts (normally open and
normally closed) are provided for reporting an alarm to an external alarm system when a fault is
detected. Both major alarm (system operation seriously affected) and minor alarm (system
operation not affected or only slightly degraded) contacts are provided.
The status of the HU, the alarm state (major or minor), and other more detailed alarm
information is summarized and reported over the service interface, the CAN interface, and also
Page 2-3

ADCP-75-134 • Issue A • April 2002 • Section 2: Description
over the fiber optic link to the RU. In addition, the state of the RU is received over the fiber link
and reported over the service interface and the CAN interface. This detailed information may be
accessed remotely through the NOC/NEM interface or locally through the EMS software MI.
2.4
RF Signal Connections
The RF signal connections between the HU and the EBTS are supported through either two
(non-diversity unit) or three (diversity unit) N-type female connectors. On non-diversity units,
one connector is used for the forward path RF signal. The other connector is used for the reverse
path RF signal. On diversity units, a third connector is used for the diversity path RF signal. In
SMR installations, it is usually necessary to install an external attenuator in the forward path
link between the HU and the EBTS. The HU should be as close as possible to the EBTS to
minimize cable losses.
2.5
RF Signal Level Adjustments
The HU is equipped with several attenuators for adjusting the signal levels of the forward and
reverse path RF signals. The attenuators provide an attenuation adjustment range of 0 to 20 dB
and can be set in 1 dB increments. The attenuators are software controlled and are adjusted
through the NOC/NEM interface or the EMS software MI.
The host forward path attenuator adjusts the level of the input RF signal to the HU. Any input
signal with a level of –20 dBm to –40 dBm can be adjusted to the required maximum input level
using the forward path attenuator. An external attenuator is required if more than 20 dB of
attenuation is required to adjust the input RF signal to the required level.
The host reverse path attenuator adjusts the level of the output RF signal and will add from 10
dB of gain (attenuator set to 20 dB) to 30 dB of gain (attenuator set to 0 dB) to the output signal
at the HU. The host diversity reverse path attenuator provides the same function as the host
reverse path attenuator but for the diversity reverse path.
2.6
Propagation Delay
The HU forward, reverse, and diversity reverse path propagation delays may be adjusted in 1 µs
increments within a range of 0–63 µs. The propagation delay is software controlled and may be
adjusted through the NOC/NEM interface or the EMS software MI.
2.7
Optical Link Connection
Optical link connections between the HU and the RU (STM) are supported through either two
(non-diversity unit) or three (diversity unit) SC-type optical connector ports. On non-diversity
units, one port is used for connecting the forward path optical signal and the other port is used
for connecting the primary reverse path optical signal. On diversity units, a third optical port is
used for connecting the diversity reverse path optical signal.
2.8
Controller Area Network Interface Connection
Controller Area Network (CAN) interface connections between multiple HUs are supported by
a pair of RJ-45 jacks. One of the jacks is designated as the network IN port and the other jack is
Page 2-4
© 2002, ADC Telecommunications, Inc.
ADCP-75-134 • Issue A • April 2002 • Section 2: Description
designated as the network OUT port. The CAN interface allows up to 15 HUs to be connected
together (in daisy-chain fashion) and controlled through a single Digivance EMS computer.
2.9
Service Interface Connection
The service interface connection between the HU and the Digivance EMS computer is
supported by a single DB-9 female connector. The service connector provides an RS-232 DTE
interface. When multiple HUs are networked together, the supporting EMS computer may be
connected to the service connector on any one of the networked HUs.
2.10 Powering
The HU is powered by 24 to 48 Vdc power. The power is fed to the HU through a screw-down
type terminal strip located on the rear side of the unit. Power to the HU must be supplied
through a fuse panel such as the 20 position PowerWorx fuse panel (available separately). The
power circuit for each HU must be protected with a 3 Amp GMT fuse. An On/Off switch is
provided on the HU front panel.
2.11 Cooling
Continuous airflow for cooling is provided by dual fans mounted on the right side of the HU
housing. A minimum of 3 inches (76 mm) of clearance space must be provided on both the left
and right sides of the HU for air intake and exhaust. An alarm is provided if a high temperature
condition (>50º C/122º F) occurs. The fans may be field-replaced if either fan fails.
2.12 User Interface
The HU user interface consists of the various connectors, switches, terminals, and LEDs that are
provided on the HU front and rear panels. The HU user interface points are indicated in
Figure 2-2 and described in Table 2-1.

A plastic cord connector is provided in the exterior bottom side of the RU cabinet for routing a
fiber optic cable into the enclosure. The cord connector provides cable strain relief and a
watertight seal at the fiber optic cable entry point. As the connector nut is tightened, a soft
neoprene bushing compresses to tightly grip the cable without applying excessive force to the
fibers. The cord connector can accommodate cables that range from 0.375 to 0.875 inches (10 to
23 mm) in diameter. A spool is provided directly above the fiber optic cable entry hole for
storing excess pigtail slack.
In a typical installation, the connectorized end of a mulit-fiber outside plant cable is routed into
the enclosure through the cord connector and the individual fibers are broken out into pigtails.
The pigtails are connected to the optical ports on the STM and the excess pigtail slack is stored
on the fiber storage spool. The stub end of the cable is routed to an external splice enclosure (not
provided) for splicing to the fiber optic link cable.

Antenna Cable Connections
An N-type female connector is provided on the exterior bottom side of the RU cabinet for
connecting the primary antenna coaxial cable. The exterior connector is on the surge side of a
lightning protector that is mounted on the interior bottom side of the enclosure. On the inside of
the enclosure, a second N-type female connector is provided on the protected side of the
lightning protector. A coaxial jumper cable (included with the DDS) is used for connecting the
protected side N-type connector to the ANTENNA 1 port on the DDS.
A lightning protector for the diversity antenna is provided separately with the DDS. A hole is
provided in the bottom of the enclosure for mounting the diversity lightning protector. The
installer must mount the diversity antenna lightning protector in the cabinet when the STM,
LPA, and DDS are installed and connect it to the ANTENNA 2 port on the DDS.

AC Power Wiring Entry and Grounding
A 3/4-inch NPT threaded hole is provided in the exterior bottom side of the RU cabinet for
connecting a standard 3/4-inch AC conduit fitting to the enclosure. A 3/4-inch to 1/2-inch
reducer is also included with the enclosure if 1/2-inch conduit is preferred over 3/4-inch
conduit. The conduit should be installed between the enclosure and an external 20 Amp breaker
box (not provided) and all AC power wiring (three wires required) should be run within the
conduit. Three lead wires (Hot, Neutral, and Ground) are provided within the enclosure for
connection to the AC wiring. Three wire nuts are included with the enclosure for completing the
connection. A grounding lug is provided on the underside of the enclosure for connecting the
RU cabinet to an earth ground source.
The standard RU cabinet is equipped with a 120 VAC Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
outlet and should only be wired for operation on 120 VAC current. The cabinet may be re-wired
for 240 VAC if required.
3.7
Back-up Battery Kit
A back-up battery kit (accessory item) is available when the application requires that the system
remain operational during an AC power outage. A tray is provided within the enclosure for
mounting the battery. The battery tray includes a heating pad that keeps the battery warm during
cold weather. A temperature sensor regulates the operation of the heating pad and a circuit
breaker provides overcurrent protection. The back-up battery kit includes a wiring harness for
connecting the battery to the STM. During normal operation, the STM provides charging
current to maintain the battery charge level. During an AC power outage, the battery provides
DC power to the STM to maintain system operation. The battery can maintain operation of the
RU for approximately 1 hour at 50 Watts.
3.8
Ventilation
Vent openings are provided in the door and the rear side of the RU cabinet to permit air
exchange for cooling. Air enters the enclosure through the opening in the door. A filter on the
inside of the door removes dirt particles so that only clean air enters the enclosure. Both
modules have cooling fans. The STM has a rear mounted fan that pulls air through the module
and exhausts it toward the rear of the enclosure. The heated air exits through an opening in the
rear side of the enclosure. The LPA works in a similar manner except it also has a fan on the
front to help draw air into the module.
3.9
User Interface
The RU cabinet user interface consists of the various connectors, fittings, outlets, and switches
that are provided on both the interior and exterior of the enclosure. The RU cabinet user
interface points are indicated in Figure 2-4 and described in Table 2-2.
