throughout the fiber network, including fiber distribution panels
These cables are widely‐used, industry standards for the cable TV industry. The regulations and
guidelines for Fusion Wideband cable installation are identical to those specified by the TIA/EIA
568‐B standard and the TIA/EIA/570‐A standards.
TE recommends solid copper center conductor, plenum‐rated CATV cable and connectors for
conformity to building codes, standards, and to ensure stated performance of maximum distance
and RF specifications.
CommScope 2065V cable or equivalent is required for RG‐59.
CommScope 2279V cable or equivalent is required for RG‐6.
CommScope 2293K cable may also be used for RG‐11.

Safety Precautions
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Installation Guidelines
Use the following guidelines when installing TE equipment:
Provide sufficient airflow and cooling to the equipment to prevent heat build‐up from
exceeding the maximum ambient air temperature specification. Do not compromise the
amount of airflow required for safe operation of the equipment.
If you are removing the system, turn it off and remove the power cord first. There are no
user‐serviceable parts inside the components.
The internal power supplies have internal fuses that are not user replaceable. Consider the
worst‐case power consumption shown on the product labels when provisioning the
equipment’s AC power source and distribution.
Verify that the Hub is grounded properly using the AC power cord third wire ground.
CAUTION!
Be careful with the mechanical loading of the rack mounted hub. Mount the equipment in the
rack in such a way that a hazardous condition, due to uneven mechanical loading, does not
result.
General Safety Precautions
The following precautions apply to TE products:
•
The units have no user‐serviceable parts. Faulty or failed units are fully replaceable through
TE. To contact TE, see “Appendix D: Contacting TE Connectivity” on page 229.
•
When you connect the fiber optic cable, clean all optical fiber SC/APC connectors according to
the cable manufacturer’s instructions.
•
When you connect a radiating antenna to an RAU, firmly hand‐tighten the N connector –
DO NOT over‐tighten the connector.
CAUTION!
•
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this equipment to rain or moisture. The
components are intended for indoor use only. Do not install the RAU outdoors. Do not connect
an RAU to an antenna that is located outdoors where it could be subject to lightning strikes,
power crosses, or wind.
The Expansion Hub and RAU units are designed for intra‐building cabling only. Outdoor
routing of any cabling to these units shall not exceed 140 feet.
CAUTION!
Outdoor cables farther than 140 feet must be installed with proper lightning protection.

Fiber Port Safety Precautions
The following are suggested safety precautions for working with fiber ports. For information
about system compliance with safety standards, refer to “Appendix B: Compliance” on page 203.
CAUTION!
Observe the following warning about viewing fiber ends in ports. Do not stare with unprotected
eyes at the connector ends of the fibers or the ports of the hubs. Invisible infrared radiation is
present at the front panel of the Main Hub and the Expansion Hub. Do not remove the fiber port
dust caps unless the port is going to be used. Do not stare directly into a fiber port.
•
Test fiber cables: When you test fiber optic cables, connect the optical power source last and
disconnect it first. Use Class 1 test equipment.
•
Fiber ends: Cover any unconnected fiber ends with an approved cap. Do not use tape.
•
Broken fiber cables: Do not stare with unprotected eyes at any broken ends of the fibers.
Laser light emitted from fiber sources can cause eye injury. Avoid contact with broken fibers;
they are sharp and can pierce the skin. Report any broken fiber cables and have them
replaced.
•
Cleaning: Be sure the connectors are clean and free of dust or oils. Use only approved
methods for cleaning optical fiber connectors.
•
Modifications: Do not make any unauthorized modifications to this fiber optic system or
associated equipment.
•

Installing Fusion Wideband
 Connecting the Fiber Cables to the Main Hub
CAUTION!
Observe all Fiber Port Safety Precautions listed in “Safety Precautions” on page 109.
Preparing the Fiber Cables
Do the following before connecting the fiber cables:
Confirm that their optical loss does not exceed the 3 dB optical budget.
If you are using fiber distribution panels, confirm that the total optical loss of fiber cable, from
the Main Hub through distribution panels and patch cords to the Expansion Hub, does not
exceed the optical budget.
Make sure the fiber cable’s connectors are SC/APC (angle‐polished). Using any other
connector type will result in degraded system performance and may damage the
equipment. (You can use an SC/APC pigtail if the fiber cable’s connectors are not SC/APC.
Refer to “Fusion Wideband Splicing of Fiber and Pigtail” on page 145. Or, you can change the
fiber’s connector to SC/APC.)
Cleaning the Fiber Ports
You can clean the Hub’s fiber ports using canned compressed air or isopropyl alcohol and foam
tipped swabs.
•
If using compressed air, the air must be free of dust, water, and oil.
•
Hold the can level during use.
•
If using isopropyl alcohol and foam tipped swabs, use only 98% pure or more alcohol.
Using Compressed Air
Remove the port’s dust cap.
Spray the compressed air away from the unit for a few seconds to clean out the nozzle and
then blow dust particles out of each fiber port.
Using Isopropyl Alcohol
Remove the connector’s dust cap.
Dip a 2.5mm lint‐free, foam‐tipped swab in isopropyl alcohol and slowly insert the tip into the
connector.
Gently twist the swab to clean the port.
Insert a dry swab into the port to dry it.
Additionally, you can use compressed air after the alcohol has completely evaporated.

The fiber cable is labeled with either 1 or 2, or is color‐coded. In addition to these labels, you
should add a code that identifies which port on the Main Hub is being used and which Expansion
Hub the cables are intended for. This differentiates the connectors for proper connection between
the Main Hub and Expansion Hubs.
For example:
First pair to Main Hub port 1: 11 (uplink), 12 (downlink); 
Second pair to Main Hub port 2: 21 (uplink), 22 (downlink); 
Third pair to Main Hub port 3: 31 (uplink), 32 (downlink); and so on.
NOTE:
The Fusion Wideband One Port Main Hub (PN: FSN‐1‐MH‐1P and FSN‐2‐MH‐2‐1P) configuration
is a cost reduced version of the Fusion Wideband Main Hub and supports only one Expansion Hub
(up to 8 RAUs).
If the fiber jumper is labeled with 1 or 2
Connect 1s to UPLINK ports on the Main Hub.
Connect 2s to DOWNLINK ports on the Main Hub.
Record which cable number and port number you connected to UPLINK and DOWNLINK.
This information is needed when connecting the other end of the fiber cable to the Expansion
Hub’s fiber ports.
The fiber port LEDs should be off, indicating that the Expansion Hub(s) are not connected.

AC Powered Main Hub
To connect AC power to a Main Hub:
Connect the AC power cord to the Main Hub.
Plug the power cord into an AC power outlet.
DC Powered Main Hub and Expansion Hub
CAUTION!
The protective earth connection should be connected before proceeding with power
connections. Confirm the DC power source is powered off during installation. Damage to hubs
may result if power is connected improperly.
The DC powered Main Hub and Expansion Hub are intended to be powered by a +48VDC power
source. The hubs are designed for 14AWG to 6AWG wire size connections. Use only UL listed
AWM wire, rated 600V and 90 degrees C.
If wires larger than 6AWG are needed from the DC power source, follow local codes for reducing
the wire size at hub connection point.
Follow local codes for routing of power cables to power source.
The unit should be connected to a DC branch circuit breaker. A suitable disconnect device must
be provided in the DC branch, either a circuit breaker or switch, that can be employed to
disconnect power to the system during servicing.

 Connecting the Fiber Cables to the Expansion Hub
CAUTION!
Observe all Fiber Port Safety Precautions listed in “Safety Precautions” on page 109.
Preparing the Fiber Cables
Confirm that their optical loss does not exceed 3 dB optical budget. RL is less than ‐60dB.
If fiber distribution panels are used, confirm that the total optical loss of fiber cable, from the
Main Hub through distribution panels and patch cords to the Expansion Hub, does not exceed
the optical budget.
Make sure the fiber cable’s connectors are SC/APC (angle‐polished). Using any other
connector type will result in degraded system performance and may damage the
equipment. (You can use an SC/APC pigtail if the fiber cable’s connectors are not SC/APC,
refer to “Fusion Wideband Splicing of Fiber and Pigtail” on page 145, or replace the
connectors.)
Connecting the Fiber Cables
The fiber cable is labeled with either 1 or 2, or is color‐coded. For proper connection between the
Main Hub ports and the Expansion Hub ports, refer to the numbering or color‐coded connections
you recorded when installing the Main Hub(s).
If the Fiber Jumper Is Labeled with 1 or 2
Connect 2 to DOWNLINK on the Expansion Hub.
The DL STATUS LED should turn green as soon as you connect the fiber. If it does not, there is a
downlink problem. Make sure you are connecting the correct cable to the port.
Connect 1 to UPLINK on Expansion Hub.
The UL STATUS LED turns green on the first Main Hub communication. It may take up to 20
seconds to establish communication.
The Expansion Hub’s E-HUB STATUS LED turns green when the Main Hub sends it the frequency
band command.
If the UL STATUS and E-HUB STATUS LEDs do not turn green/green, check the Main Hub LEDs;

Installing RAUs
INSTALLING RAUS
CAUTION!
Install RAUs in indoor locations only. Do not connect an antenna that is installed in an outdoor
location to an RAU. For outdoor installations, a protective enclosure is required.
NOTE:
The following procedures assume that the system is new from the factory and that it has not
been programmed with bands. If you are replacing components in a pre‐installed system with
either new units or units that may already be programmed (for example, re‐using units from
another system), refer to “Replacing Fusion Wideband Components” on page 175.
 Installing RAUs
Mount all RAUs in the locations marked on the floor plans.
•
Install 800 iDEN and 850/1900 MHz RAUs so that their antennas will be separated by enough
space to reduce signal interference between the 800 and 850 bands. Refer to “800/850 MHz
Isolation Requirements” on page 134 for recommended distance between antennas.
•
You can place the unit, without its fastening hardware, on a flat surface, such as a shelf, desk,
cabinet, or any other horizontal surface that allows stable placement with the mounting base
facing down to the mounting surface. For mounting to other locations (that is, walls, ceilings,
poles) the RAU must be securely mounted using the 4 slotted mounting holes provided with
#6 diameter fasteners. This method of mounting must securely hold a minimum of 7 lbs. load.
•
Attach the RAU securely to a stationary object (that is, a wall, pole, or ceiling tile).
•
For proper ventilation:
– Keep at least 76 mm (3 in.) clearance around the RAU to ensure proper venting.
– Do not stack RAUs on top of each other.
– Always mount the RAU with the solid face (containing the mounting holes) against the
mounting surface.
 Installing Passive Antennas
Refer to the manufacturer’s installation instructions to install passive antennas.
Location
Passive antennas are usually installed below the ceiling. If they are installed above the ceiling, you
must consider the additional loss due to the ceiling material when estimating the antenna
coverage area.

Installing Fusion Wideband
800/850 MHz Isolation Requirements
When deploying any RF system, give special attention to preventing receiver blocking or
desensitization by out‐of‐band transmitters. Typically, sharp filters in the receiver front‐end will
reduce the interfering transmitters to tolerable levels. In select cases, the interferers may occupy
a frequency band that is directly adjacent to the receiving band and cannot be adequately rejected
by filtering. The only recourse in these situations is to provide sufficient isolation by physically
separating the interfering transmitters and receivers.
iDEN occupies spectrum at both 800 MHz and 900 MHz (Tx:851–869/Rx:806–824 and
Tx:935–941/Rx:896–902), while the Cellular A and B carriers share a single 850 MHz block
(Tx:869–894/Rx:824–849). The combination of these frequency bands, 800/900 MHz iDEN and
850 MHz Cellular, result in uplink (BTS receive) bands that are adjacent to downlink (BTS
transmit) bands. Figure 38 depicts these nearly contiguous bands, with arrows indicating the
interfering downlink and receiving uplink bands.

Installation of an in‐building distributed antenna system (DAS) to provide coverage for both

Installing RAUs
800 MHz iDEN Downlink and 850 MHz Cellular Uplink
A 2 MHz frequency gap (851 – 849 MHz) separates the 800 iDEN downlink and 850 Cellular
uplink frequency bands. Because of this narrow spacing, 800 iDEN downlink intermodulation
products may fall within the 850 Cellular uplink band. In addition, 800 iDEN downlink signals
near the lower edge of the band at 851 MHz may cause the 850 Cellular uplink automatic level
control (ALC) circuitry in the RAU to engage and thereby reduce uplink gain.
To prevent either of these conditions, use the following guidelines:
•
In‐band 800 iDEN intermodulation products < ‐90dBm
•
Lower frequency 800 iDEN signals < –30dBm for Fusion Wideband
Given a typical DAS configuration (4 iDEN carriers, omni‐directional antennas, line of sight), these
guidelines translate to an antenna spacing (d1) of 6 – 9 meters.
850 MHz Cellular Downlink and 900 MHz iDEN Uplink
A 2 MHz frequency gap (896 – 894 MHz) separates the 850 Cellular downlink and 900 iDEN
uplink frequency bands. Because of this narrow spacing, 850 Cellular downlink intermodulation
products may fall within the 900 iDEN uplink band. In addition, 850 Cellular downlink signals
near the upper edge of the band at 894 MHz may cause the 900 iDEN uplink ALC to engage and
thereby reduce uplink gain.
To prevent either of these conditions, use the following guidelines:
•
In‐band 850 Cellular intermodulation products < ‐90dBm
•
Upper frequency 850 Cellular signals < –30dBm for Fusion Wideband
Given a typical DAS configuration (6 CDMA carriers for Fusion Wideband, omni‐directional
antennas, line of sight), these guidelines translate to an antenna spacing (d2) of 8‐14 meters.
Spacing between RAUs FSN‐8519‐1 and FSN‐809019‐2 should be in a range of from 8 to 14
meters.
 Connecting the Antenna to the RAU
Connect a passive multi‐band antenna to the N connector on the RAU using coaxial cable with the
least amount of loss possible.
CAUTION!
Firmly hand‐tighten the N connector – DO NOT over‐tighten the connector.

Installing Fusion Wideband
CONFIGURING THE FUSION WIDEBAND SYSTEM
Before the system can operate properly, use AdminBrowser to program the Fusion Wideband
Main Hub with the frequency bands that are to be distributed. The Hub must be programmed with
the same frequencies as the RAU used.
The AdminBrowser software, described in the AdminBrowser User Manual (PN D‐620607‐0‐20),
must be running on a PC/laptop.
NOTE:
The frequency bands should automatically be set on power up and this step should not be
required.
NOTE:
Crossover Ethernet cable with male connectors required.
NOTE:
The following procedures assume that the system is new from the factory and that it has not
been programmed with bands. If you are replacing components in a pre‐installed system with
either new units or units that may already be programmed (for example, re‐using units from
another system), refer to “Replacing Fusion Wideband Components” on page 175.
 Connecting the PC to the Main Hub to Run AdminBrowser
Connect the AC power cord to the Hub.
CAUTION!
Make sure the Hub is grounded through the ground lug on the AC power and the frame ground
lug as required. The warranty does not cover damage caused when an ungrounded Hub is
powered on.
Plug the power cord into an AC power outlet.
Verify that all cables are properly connected on the Hub.
Turn on the power to the Hub.
All LEDs blink through the power up sequence. At each port where an RAU is detected
(drawing current), the port LEDs lights green. The Fusion Wideband STATUS LED is orange
during system boot and should turn green after about 90 seconds if it finds no faults. This
state indicates the band’s are not programmed and provides feedback on the status of the
RAU connections.
The LEDs blink for 20 seconds as a visual check that they are functioning.
Connect the cross‐over Ethernet cable to the PC/laptop and then to the RJ-45 100-BASE-T port
on the Hub’s front panel.

radios, one per band, across any 30 MHz within the WiMAX band.
14
•
Use the pull‐down to select the Switching Mode. This indicates whether or not the
downlink‐to‐uplink frame duration is known. The two options are as follows:
– Static‐Selected: This mode specifies the number of symbols. Use the pull‐down to
select the symbol in the downlink and uplink portions of the frame. (The default is
“29,18”.) In this mode, the system always switches from the downlink to the uplink
path after the downlink portion of the frame has elapsed.
– Static‐Auto: This mode causes the system to attempt to determine the correct
switching time, then enforce it. (The default is “Static‐Auto”)
•
Select the Band Synchronization Mode with the pull‐down. This parameter can be
configured to operate as one of the following:
– Synchronized: This mode is for cases like MIMO, where the timing for both bands is
the same. In this mode, the system always switches between uplink and downlink
simultaneously for both bands.
– Unsynchronized: In this mode, the two WiMAX bands switch independently from
each other. (The default is “Unsynchronized”)
•
Reference: Select which WiMAX radio band will be used for frame reference.
•
When any band is not configured, use the Shutdown check box. The system ignores any
alarms generated from the shutdown bands.
•
Use the pull‐down to specify the Uplink and Downlink gain for each band. You can set
system gain within the specified range in 1 dB increments.

Splicing Fiber Optic Cable
SPLICING FIBER OPTIC CABLE
The fiber cable must have SC/APC connectors for the entire run. If it does not, you can splice a
pigtail, which has SC/APC connectors, to the fiber cable.
TE offers two pigtails: one for single‐mode fiber (PN 4013SCAPC‐3) and one for multi‐mode fiber
(PN 4012SCAPC‐3).
TE recommends Fusion Wideband splices because they have the lowest splice loss and return
loss. Mechanical splices have higher losses and higher back reflection than Fusion Wideband
splices and are not recommended.
Using a Fusion Wideband splicer involves fusing together two butted and cleaved ends of fiber.
The Fusion Wideband splicer aligns the fibers and maintains alignment during the Fusion
Wideband process. Fusion Wideband splices have very low loss (typically less than 0.05 dB) and
very low back reflection (return loss). Fusion Wideband splices should be organized in a splice
tray designed to store and protect the splices.
NOTE:
The following procedures assume that the system is new from the factory and that it has not
been programmed with bands. If you are replacing components in a pre‐installed system with
either new units or units that may already be programmed (for example, re‐using units from
another system), refer to “Replacing Fusion Wideband Components” on page 175.
 Fusion Wideband Splicing of Fiber and Pigtail
Option A: Fusion Wideband Splice the Fiber‐Optic Cable to the SC/APC Pigtail
Make sure the Fusion Wideband splicer is set to the proper mode (that is, single‐ or
multi‐mode).
Secure both the fiber cable and the SC/APC pigtail in a splice tray that is installed immediately
adjacent to the Hub.
Prepare the fiber end by cutting back the polyethylene jacket, the kevlar or fiberglass strength
members, the extruded coating, and the buffer coating in order to expose the “bare fiber” –
cladding plus core.
Ensure that sufficient slack is maintained in order to be able to reach the Fusion Wideband
splicer.
Clean the unclad fiber core using isopropyl alcohol and lint‐free wipes.
Cleave the unclad fiber to the length prescribed by the Fusion Wideband splicer’s
specification sheets.
Repeat Step 4 through Step 6 for the SC/APC pigtail.
Pass the splice sleeve onto the fiber strand.
Position both fiber ends in the Fusion Wideband splicer and complete splice in accordance
with the Fusion Wideband splicer’s operation instructions.
10
Ensure that the estimated loss for the splice as measured by the Fusion Wideband splicer is
0.10 dB or better.
11
Slide the Fusion Wideband splicing sleeve over the point of the Fusion Wideband splice.

Hub.
Option B: Fusion Wideband Splice the Fiber‐Optic Cable to the SC/APC Pigtail
Make sure the Fusion Wideband splicer is set to the proper mode (that is, single‐ or
multi‐mode).
Secure both the fiber cable and the SC/APC pigtail in a splice tray portion of a fiber
distribution panel.
Prepare the fiber end by cutting back the polyethylene jacket, the kevlar or fiberglass strength
members, the extruded coating, and the buffer coating in order to expose the “bare fiber” –
cladding plus core.
Ensure that sufficient slack is maintained in order to be able to reach the Fusion Wideband
splicer.
Clean the unclad fiber core using isopropyl alcohol and lint‐free wipes.
Cleave the unclad fiber to the length prescribed by the Fusion Wideband splicer’s
specification sheets.
Repeat Step 3 through Step 6 for the SC/APC pigtail.
Pass the splice sleeve onto the fiber strand.
Position both fiber ends in the Fusion Wideband splicer and complete splice in accordance
with the Fusion Wideband splicer’s operation instructions.
10
Ensure that the estimated loss for the splice as measured by the Fusion Wideband splicer is
0.10 dB or better.

Installing Fusion Wideband
 Connecting Multiple Fusion Wideband Main Hubs to a Duplex Repeater or BTS
CAUTION!
Only TE personnel or TE‐authorized installation personnel should connect the Fusion Wideband
Main Hub to a base station or repeater. Exceeding the maximum input power could cause failure
of the Fusion Wideband Main Hub (refer to “Remote Access Unit Connectors” on page 57 for
maximum power specifications). If the maximum composite power is too high, attenuation is
required.
Make sure you have the following components:
Quantity
Item
hybrid power combiner/splitters—one for uplink and one for downlink (2x1 for two Fusion Wideband Main
Hubs, 3x1 for three, 4x1 for four, and so on)
N-male to N-male coaxial jumper cables to connect each Fusion Wideband Main Hub’s RF Band to the power
combiner/splitters
circulator
N-male to N-male coaxial jumper cable between each circulator and the repeater or base station
N-male to N-male coaxial jumper cable between each circulator and power combiner/splitter
Connect the circulator to the repeater or base station using one N‐male to N‐male coaxial
jumper cable.
Connect each power combiner/splitter to the circulator using one N‐male to N‐male coaxial
jumper cable per combiner/splitter.
Connect the power combiner/splitter to the Hubs using N‐male to N‐male coaxial jumper
cable:
a From the first Hub’s UPLINK (Band 1, Band 2, or Band 3) port to the first power
combiner/splitter
b From the first Hub’s DOWNLINK (Band 1, Band 2, or Band 3) port to the second power
combiner/splitter
c From the second Hub’s UPLINK (Band 1, Band 2, or Band 3) port to the first power
combiner/splitter
d From the second Hub’s DOWNLINK (Band 1, Band 2, or Band 3) port to the second power
combiner/splitter
NOTE:
Connections should not cross Bands. For example, all Band 1 connections should be made to the
same hybrid power combiner/splitter connected to the repeater BTS that matches the Band 1
frequency.
Check Hub LEDs.—After connecting and powering on the Hub, check all LEDs to ensure that
the system is operating properly.
Make sure the Main Hub is grounded. The warranty does not cover damage caused when
an ungrounded Hub is powered on.
NOTE:
Use a 50 ohm terminator on any unused power combiner/splitter ports.

CONNECTING CONTACT ALARMS TO A FUSION WIDEBAND SYSTEM
The Fusion Wideband Main Hub can generate (source) two contact alarms as well as sense three
external contact alarm.
•
Alarm Source—The Fusion Wideband Main Hub has two alarm contacts, fault (major) and
warning (minor). These contacts are normally‐closed (NC) and will open when an internal
alarm is detected. For further information, see “Alarm Source” on page 157.
NOTE:
–
–
•
The contact can be changed to normally‐open (NO) with AdminBrowser. This is not
recommended since no alarm would be sent if power to the Fusion Wideband Main Hub fails.
Fault is activated when any faults or disconnects are detected.
Warning is activated when any warning conditions are detected except lockout or when
the end‐to‐end system test is not valid.
Alarm Sense—The Fusion Wideband Main Hub can monitor 3 external alarm contacts. Each
port can be configured for normally‐open (NO) or normally‐closed (NC) contacts. The
interface expects a set of floating contacts, and an external voltage source is not required for
this interface. Use AdminBrowser to monitor the port status. For further information, see
“Alarm Sense” on page 160.
Table 90 lists the alarm types, equipment to which the Fusion Wideband Main Hub is connected,
cable(s) used, and the faults and warnings that are detected.

Connecting Contact Alarms to a Fusion Wideband System
Alarm Source
Fusion Wideband always acts as an alarm source, no matter what type of equipment you are
connecting to. Refer to “Alarm Sense” on page 160 if you want Fusion Wideband to sense Unison
contact closures or other external alarms.
NOTE:
The following procedures assume that the system is installed and that has been programmed
with bands.
Using FlexWave Focus to Monitor Fusion Wideband
When you connect FlexWave Focus to the Fusion Wideband, the Fusion Wideband Main Hub is
the output of the alarms (alarm source) and Focus is the input (alarm sense), as shown in
Figure 46. Focus supports only faults (major errors).

Using a Base Station to Monitor Fusion Wideband
NOTE:
The BTS must be configured, by the carrier, for contact closure monitoring prior to connecting a
Fusion Wideband Main Hub to it.
When you connect a BTS to Fusion Wideband, the Fusion Wideband Main Hub is the output of the
alarms (alarm source) and the BTS is the input (alarm sense), as shown in Figure 47. An interface
cable is required between the daisy‐chain cable and the BTS. Because BTS alarm interface pinouts
and Fusion Wideband‐to‐BTS distances vary, this cable is often custom and wired on‐site. Refer
to “Optical Fiber Uplink/Downlink Ports” on page 33 for Alarm Contact details (Normally Closed).

Replacing an RAU
 Check the RAU LEDs
The RAU’s LINK and ALARM LEDs should blink (green/red) on power up.
If the LEDs do not blink on power up, replace the RAU.
After several seconds both LEDs should change to green, which indicates that the unit has
been successfully replaced, there is communication with the Hub, and the RAU band is
correct.
a If the LINK LED remains green and the ALARM LED remains red, verify that the RAU model
is correct for the intended frequency band.
Disconnect the cable and then reconnect it once; doing this more than once will not
change the result.
If both LEDs still don’t change to green, use AdminBrowser to determine the exact nature
of the fault and see a recommendation of how to correct it.
If both LEDs turn red (after 90 seconds), the Hub has terminated communications.

Maintenance
MAINTENANCE
Keep the fiber ports clean and free of dust. No other periodic maintenance of the Fusion
equipment is required.
Cleaning the Fiber Ports
You can clean the Hub’s fiber ports using canned compressed air or isopropyl alcohol and cotton
swabs.
Considerations
•
If you use compressed air:
– The air must be free of dust, water, and oil.
– Hold the can level during use.
•
If using isopropyl alcohol and foam‐tipped swab:
– Use only 98% pure or more alcohol.
Using Compressed Air
Remove the connector’s dust cap.
Spray the compressed air away from the unit for a few seconds to clean out the nozzle and
then blow dust particles out of each fiber port.
Using Isopropyl Alcohol
Remove the connector’s dust cap.
Dip a 2.5mm lint‐free, foam‐tipped swab in isopropyl alcohol and slowly insert the tip into the
connector.
Gently twist the swab to clean the connector.
Insert a dry swab to dry the connector.
Additionally, you can use compressed air after the alcohol has completely evaporated.

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting Using AdminBrowser
Use AdminBrowser software to determine the current faults and warnings for all of the units in
the system. To troubleshoot, start with the Fusion Main Hub’s faults AND warnings, then proceed
to each of the Expansion Hubs, finishing with each of the RAUs.
NOTE:
AdminBrowser v1.00 displays events (faults, warnings, or status messages) depending on your
view preference. To change your view preference, refer to “View Preference” on page 38.
System Troubleshooting
Using AdminBrowser, click SYSTEM INFORMATION, then click GET FAULTS, WARNINGS AND STATUSES. This
gives the present status of the system, depending upon View Preferences for all components.
Faults usually impact service; warnings may impact service; status messages contain information
that should not be ignored, but indicate conditions that do not generally impact service.
NOTE:
System commands can take longer to execute compared to component commands.
NOTE:

indicates a disconnected
Troubleshooting Recommendations
Some actions that you can take, depending on the device fault or warning include, are as follows:
•
Hardware faults on Expansion Hub.
– Try swapping fiber with another Expansion Hub at the Main Hub.
– Try cleaning the fiber and the fiber ports with alcohol foam tip swab and compressed air;
see “Cleaning the Fiber Ports” on page 183.
– Power cycle the Expansion Hub.
•
Under Alarms, click CLEAR ALL DISCONNECTS at the Fusion Main Hub.
•
Power cycle the Fusion Main Hub.
•
RAU hardware faults. Try moving a working CATV to the suspect port and verifying that the
RAU comes up OK.
•
Try isolating the system components:
– Check to see if the whole system is effected or a portion of the system.
– If the whole system is effected, disconnect the DAS system from the RF source and see if
the RF source is working.
– Continue to isolate by disabling portions of the system. Under System Configuration, click
SHOW SYSTEM TREE and select a component. Then click SET OUT OF SERVICE/SET IN SERVICE.

Maintenance, Troubleshooting, and Technical Assistance
Fault/Warning/Status Indications
Once all of the units are powered on and the cable connections are made, the faults from each unit
can be requested using AdminBrowser. Start with the Fusion Main Hub and work downstream.
Resolve all faults first and then check the warnings. Take appropriate action to resolve the faults,
as indicated in the following tables. In cases where there is more than one possible cause, they are
listed from the “most likely” to the “least likely” cause. Actions are listed in the order that they
should be performed; not all actions may need to be done.
NOTE:
If you have a red STATUS LED without a fault message, it probably indicates that the unit is locked
out.
Refer to Appendix C for tables containing Fault, Warning, and Status messages and their
meanings.
Troubleshooting Using LEDs
The following troubleshooting guide is from the perspective that all Fusion equipment is
installed, their cables are connected, and they are powered on; it is assumed that the system was
operating normally before the problem to be diagnosed occurred.
Always use AdminBrowser, if possible, to troubleshoot the system. The Fusion Main Hub and
Expansion Hub LEDs are for backup troubleshooting. The RAU LEDs probably will not provide
additional information for troubleshooting.
Troubleshooting Main Hub LEDs During Normal Operation
All of the Main Hub’s LEDs should be green during normal operation. If any LEDs are red, get
status using AdminBrowser to determine the exact cause and recommendations.

NOTE:
For Canadian customers, the Manufacturer’s rated output power1 of this equipment is for single
carrier operation. For situations when multiple carrier signals are present, the rating would have
to be reduced by 3.5 dB, especially where the output signal is re‐radiated and can cause
interference to adjacent band users. This power reduction is to be by means of input power or
gain reduction and not by an attenuator at the output of the device.
NOTE:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
NOTE:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications.
This equipment complies with the FCC radiation exposure limits for general
population/uncontrolled exposure environments.
Changes or modifications not approved and performed by TE may void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
WARNING. This is NOT a CONSUMER device. It is designed for installation by FCC 
LICENSEES and QUALIFIED INSTALLERS. You MUST have an FCC License or express 
consent of an FCC licensee to operate this device. Unauthorized use may result in significant
forfeiture penalties, including penalties in excess of $100,000 for each continuing violation.

Human Exposure to RF
HUMAN EXPOSURE TO RF
The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has developed guidelines for evaluation of
human exposure to RF emissions. The guidelines incorporate limits for Maximum Permissible
Exposure (MPE) for power density of transmitters operating at frequencies between 300 kHz and
100 GHz. Limits have been set for portable, mobile, and fixed equipment. TE products fall in the
category of fixed equipment; products intended to be permanently secured and exposures are
evaluated for distances greater than 20cm (7 7/8”). Portable devices fall into exposures of less
than 20cm, are SAR evaluations are used.
Antenna gain is restricted to 1.5 W ERP (2.49 W EIRP) in order to satisfy RF exposure compliance
requirements. If higher than 1.5 W ERP, routine MPE evaluation is needed. The antennas should
be installed to provide at least 20 cm from all persons to satisfy MPE requirements of FCC Part 2,
2.1091.
Basic MPE evaluation is performed by taking the maximum power output of the equipment, the
gain of the antenna to be used, and distance from the antenna, referenced in FCC OET Bulletin 65
“Evaluation Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency for Electric
Fields”.
TE products transmit well below the FCC power density limits. FCC defines power output limits
at 20cm distance for various frequency ranges:
•
Over 300 mHz to 1.5 GHz the limit is determined by frequency/1500
•
Above 1.5 GHz the limit is 1mW/cm2
The basic equation for determining power density is:
S = PG / 4R2
Where S is power density in mW/cm2
PG, the transmitted power from the antenna identified as EIRP (Equivalent Isotropically Radiated
Power), is the product of power output of device and antenna gain, in mW.
R is the distance of interest from the antenna.
Typical Installation Example:
Assuming an antenna is placed on a 10 foot ceiling, for a person 6 feet tall, the distance from
antenna to body is 4 feet (112 cm.).
For a PCS 1900 remote unit, the maximum power output, according to the power table in
Section 6.3 Maximum Output Power per Carrier 6‐4, is 16.5 dB.
Assuming a 7 dBi antenna is used, PG in the equation is equal to 23.5 dB (224 mW) EIRP.
Using S = PG/4R2
S = 224/(4x3.14) x (122)2 = 0.001 mW/cm2
Also, assuming a minimum distance of 20 cm according to FCC regulations:
S = 224/(4 x 3.14) x (20)2 = 0.04 mW/cm2

Appendix C: Faults, Warnings, Status Tables for Fusion, Fusion Wideband, Fusion SingleStar
FAULTS REPORTED BY MAIN HUBS
Faults indicate service‐impacting conditions and should be given immediate attention.
Once all of the units are powered on and the cable connections are made, the faults from each unit
can be requested using AdminBrowser. Start with the Fusion or Fusion Wideband Main Hub and
work downstream.
Resolve all faults first and then check the warnings. Take appropriate action to resolve the faults,
as indicated in the following tables. In cases where there is more than one possible cause, they are
listed from the “most likely” to the “least likely” cause. Actions are listed in the order that they
should be performed; not all actions may need to be done.
NOTE:
If you have a red STATUS LED without a fault message, it probably indicates that the unit is locked
out.
