Microwave Radio Radiation Warning
Although ADC products do not use microwave radio antennas, the equipment is often mounted
in the vicinity of microwave radio antennas. Under normal operating conditions, microwave
radio equipment complies with the limits for human exposure to radio frequency (RF) fields
adopted by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). All ADC microwave radio
equipment is designed so that under normal working conditions, microwave radiation directly
from the radio is negligible when compared with the permissible limit of continuous daily
exposure recommended in the United States by ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1991 (R1997), Safety
Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to
300 GHz.

ADCP-77-086 • Issue 2 • 04/2009 • Preface
Microwave signal levels that give rise to hazardous radiation levels can exist within transmitter power amplifiers, associated RF multiplexers, and antenna systems.
AVERTISSEMENT: Dans des conditions normales de fonctionnement, le matériel radio
ADC Telecommunications est conforme aux limites d'exposition humaine aux champs de
radiofréquences adoptées par la FCC (Federal Communications Commission). Tous les appareils d’ADC Telecommunications, Inc. sont conçus pour émettre un niveau de rayonnement de
radiofréquences négligeable dans des conditions normales d’utilisation, dans les limites
acceptables d’exposition continue quotidienne recommandées aux États-Unis selon la norme
ANSI/IEEE C95.1-19991 (R1997) qui définit les niveaux de sécurité pour l’exposition
humaine aux champs électromagnétiques radio de 3 kHz à 300 GHz. Les signaux RF émis
peuvent engendrer des niveaux de rayonnement dangereux à l'intérieur de l’émetteur, des
amplificateurs de puissance, des multiplexeurs RF et des systèmes d’antenne associés. Ne pas
débrancher les connecteurs coaxiaux RF sur l’appareil ou les systèmes d’antenne ADC
pendant le fonctionnement de l'équipement radio. Éviter tout contact physique avec le connecteur RF et ne pas regarder dans celui-ci lors des transmissions radio.
WARNUNG: Unter normalen Betriebsbedingungen erfüllen ADC Telecommunications
Funkanlagen die Schutzanforderungen der amerikanischen Federal Communications Commission (FCC) für Menschen vor HF-Feldern. Alle Funkanlagen der ADC Telecommunications,
Inc. sind so konstruiert, dass unter normalen Betriebsbedingungen die HF-Strahlen, die direkt
vom Funkgerät abgegeben werden, vernachlässigbar sind, im Vergleich zum zulässigen
Höchstwert der permanenten täglichen Strahlenbelastung, die in den USA nach ANSI/IEEE
C95.1-19991 (R1997) empfohlen wird: „Sichere elektromagnetische HF-Strahlenbelastung
beim Menschen, 3 kHz bis 300 GHz“. HF-Signale, die zu gefährlichen Strahlenwerten führen,
können innerhalb eines Senders, eines Leistungsverstärkers, eines angeschlossenen HF-Multiplexers oder eines Antennensystems entstehen. HF-Koaxialstecker bei ADC-Anlagen oder.
Antennensysteme dürfen nicht bei laufendem Betrieb der Funkanlage abgezogen werden. Man
darf nie einen Körperteil vor einem HF-Stecker platzieren bzw. den Stecker beim laufenden
Betrieb der Funkanlage angucken.
WARNING: Never look into the open end of a waveguide or any other open RF connection
as eyes are particularly vulnerable to radiation. Do not disconnect RF coaxial connectors, open
microwave units, or remove any microwave screening while the radio equipment is operating.
AVERTISSEMENT: Ne pas regarder dans l’extrémité ouverte d’un guide d’ondes ou de
toute autre connexion RF ouverte, du fait que les yeux sont particulièrement sensibles au rayonnement. Ne pas débrancher les connecteurs coaxiaux RF, ne pas ouvrir les unités à
hyperfréquences et ne pas démonter tout émetteur à hyperfréquences au cours du fonctionnement de l’équipement radio.
WARNUNG: Man darf nie in das offene Ende eines Wellenleiters oder einer offenen
HF-Verbindung blicken, da die Augen sehr empfindlich gegenüber Strahlenemissionen sind.
Niemals HF-Koaxialstecker auftrennen, Mikrowelleneinheiten öffnen, oder Mikrowellenabschirmungen entfernen, während die Funkanlage eingeschaltet ist.

1.1
Overview of the microBTS 1 x 1 and 2 x 1
The FlexWave microBTS is an environmentally hardened outdoor base station solution that
supports GSM/AMR voice traffic and GPRS/EDGE data traffic. The microBTS is available in
three versions; 1, 2 and 4 TRX. The 4 x 1 version of the microBTS is covered in ADC publication number ADCP 77-087. An Internet Protocol (IP) back haul provides the interface between
the microBTS and the Base Station Controller (BSC). All voice and data traffic and all operation and maintenance functions are transported by the IP back haul. A complete FlexWave
Operations and Maintenance Center - Radio (OMC-R) management solution is available that
provides total control of the microBTS, BSC, and other FlexWave system elements.
The microBTS, shown in Figure 1-1, consists of an environmentally-sealed enclosure and
various electronic modules that are housed within the enclosure. Excess heat is dissipated
using a passive cooling system which eliminates the need for external cooling fans. The low
profile design of the enclosure requires minimal real estate for installation. The enclosure may
be mounted from a wall, pole, or overhead cable (strand). A separate base station antenna (not
provided) mounts near the enclosure.

Primary Components
The microBTS is a fully integrated base station solution that includes the following: radio
transceivers, Linear Power Amplifier (LPA), RX Low Noise Amplifier (LNA), duplexer,
power supply, IP switches, Network Listen unit, processor board, carrier board, and enclosure.
The enclosure houses the electronic assemblies, controls RF emissions, seals out dirt and moisture, and provides passive cooling. The internal components are not user replaceable or
accessible. The base station antenna cable connector, IP back haul connector, AC power connector, and the unit status indicator are located on the bottom of the enclosure. The Network
Listen antenna connector is located on the top of the enclosure.
1.2.2
Mounting
The microBTS may be mounted on a flat vertical surface (such as the side of a building), on a
utility pole, or from a strand. A combination wall/pole mounting bracket is provided with each
unit. Wall or pole-mount installation consists of securing the bracket to the mounting surface
and then hanging the enclosure from the bracket. The bracket may be attached to a variety of
surfaces such as wood, concrete, or masonry. Various fasteners including hex-head capscrews,
tee-nuts, and concrete anchors are provided. A separate strand-mount kit (accessory item) is
available if it is necessary to mount the microBTS from a cable. The mircroBTS should be
mounted in a restricted access location only.
1.2.3
Fault Detection and Alarm Reporting
The microBTS detects and reports fault and alarm information. A single bottom-mounted
Light Emitting Diode (LED) indicator turns from off to red if a major fault is detected. The
status of the microBTS, the alarm state, and other fault information is summarized and
FlexWave microBTS Installation and Commissioning Guide

reported over the IP back haul. Fault and alarm information may be accessed using the
FlexWave OMC-R management solution.
1.2.4
IP Backhaul Connection
The IP back haul cable connection is through an Ethernet port that consists of a single bottom-mounted hardened RJ-45 female connector. The IP back haul cable carries the voice and
data traffic plus all OMC-R provisioning, alarm, and performance monitoring communications
between the microBTS and the BSC. The IP back haul connection also provides DC power
(POE) to the IP back haul device with a 15 watt maximum power output at 48 VDC. The
maximum drop cable length is 300 feet (91.4 m).
1.2.5
Network Listen Antenna Connection
The Network Listen antenna connection is through a single top-mounted NMO (female) RF
connector. The Network Listen antenna attaches directly to the NMO connector.
1.2.6
Base Station Antenna Cable Connection
The base station antenna cable connection is through one 50 Ohm N-type female connector.
The microBTS includes an internal duplexer which allows a single antenna cable to carry both
forward and reverse path RF signals between the base station antenna and the microBTS.
An externally-mounted lightning protector is available as an accessory. The surge/antenna
connector on the lightning protector is an N-type female connector. The microBTS enclosure
must be properly grounded for the lighting protector to function properly.
1.2.7
Powering
The microBTS is powered by 90 to 265 VAC (nominal 120 or 240 VAC), 47 to 63 Hz power
or as an option -48 VDC. The AC or DC power is supplied through a 20-foot three-wire power
cable that is provided with the enclosure. The power cable connects to a mini 3-pin AC or DC
power connector mounted on the bottom of the microBTS enclosure. The power cable is rated
for indoor or outdoor use and must not be placed within electrical conduit as this will impede
the cooling of the cable during usage. Power cables in lengths of 40, 60, or 100 feet are available separately.
The stub end of the power cable must be routed to an external junction box (not provided) for
connection to the AC power source. A circuit breaker rated at 15 amps (120 VAC) or 5 amps
for 48 VDC applications should be used to provide overcurrent protection for the microBTS
power circuit. It is also recommended that an external AC outlet (not provided) be installed
near the microBTS enclosure to power test equipment and power tools.
1.2.8
Grounding
A grounding terminal (hex socket capscrew and washer) is provided on the bottom of the
enclosure for connecting a grounding cable to the enclosure. A 1.5 meter #6 stranded copper

FlexWave microBTS Installation and Commissioning Guide
ADCP-77-086 • Issue 2 • 04/2009 • Chapter 1 - Introduction
wire terminated with a ring terminal is provided with the microBTS for linking the enclosure
to an earth ground source.
1.2.9
Cooling
Passive cooling of the electronic assemblies is provided by conducting excess heat from the
internal electronic components to the aluminum enclosure. The heat is then dissipated to the
outside air by radiation and convection air flow over the enclosure’s external cooling fins. An
alarm is generated if a high temperature condition occurs within the enclosure.
1.2.10
User Interface
The microBTS user interface consists of the connectors, grounding lug, and LED that are
provided on the exterior of the enclosure. The microBTS user interface points are indicated in
Figure 1-2 and described in Table 1-1.

Before Mounting the microBTS
3.1.1
Introduction
This section provides instructions for mounting the FlexWave microBTS. The microBTS may
be secured to an interior or exterior wall, attached to a utility pole, or attached to a horizontal
cable (strand-mount). Mounting the microBTS from a cable requires an accessory kit not
included with the unit. Read this section in its entirety prior to installing the microBTS.
3.1.2
Mounting Considerations
Before mounting the microBTS, verify that the installation site is in conformance with the
system design plan (not documented here). If a system design plan has not been prepared,
consult the ADC Customer Service for technical assistance. The site chosen must conform to
all local codes and any permits required must be obtained prior to the start of mounting. The
location must be accessible and provide adequate parking for worker and vehicle safety. The
installed unit must not create a visual or physical obstruction to vehicular or pedestrian traffic
or block pole-climbing access.
Note: The microBTS is intended for restricted access locations only.
The microBTS must be located as specified in the system design plan and must have ready
access to the specified AC or DC power source. The site must provide adequate ventilation and
must comply with the unit environmental specifications. A minimum of 18 inches of clearance
must be provided on all sides (except the back) of the enclosure to allow free air circulation. In
addition, the bottom (cable entry end) and either the top, the front, or one of the sides must be
open to free air space. Adequate clearance must be allowed at the bottom of the enclosure to
provide access for attaching cables and for viewing the LED indicator.
3.1.3
Mounting Hardware Provided With the microBTS
The microBTS is shipped with the mounting hardware required for a typical wall-mount or
pole-mount installation. Table 3-1 lists the mounting hardware provided. Additional hardware
