INSTALL THE REMOTE
This chapter guides you through installing a Prism Remote, which requires 63 steps
that are divided into 9 sections. Follow the steps in the order in which they are
provided.
This is restricted access equipment and only service personnel should open and operate
this equipment using appropriate tools
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.
Installation of the Remote may proceed separately from the installation of the
corresponding Host.
4.3.1
Unpack and Inspect the Remote and Components
This section provides instructions for opening the shipping boxes, verifying that all
parts have been received, and verifying that no shipping damage has occurred. Use
the following procedure to unpack and inspect the Host and any accessories:
Unpack and inspect the various components as follows:
Inspect the exterior of the shipping container(s) for evidence of rough handling
that may have damaged the components in the container.
Unpack each container while carefully checking the contents for damage and
verify with the packing slip.
If damage is found or parts are missing, file a claim with the commercial carrier
and notify ADC Customer Service (see “Contacting ADC” on page 335). Save the
damaged cartons for inspection by the carrier.
Save all shipping containers for use if the equipment requires shipment at a
future date.

Install the Remote
In the following steps, the RF cables and connectors are referred to as MOD N TX0/RX0
and as MOD N TRX1 where N equals A, B, C, or D.
Unpack and inspect the RF Module as described in “Unpack and Inspect the
Remote and Components” on page 97.
Handle the RF Module with care during installation. Be especially careful to not damage
the thermal- interface material (TIM), which is attached to the LPA. If the TIM is damaged,
the LPA can overheat. Before installing the RF Module, check to see if the heatsink
material is gouged or cracked. If the TIM is damaged, do not install the RF Module and
contact ADC for assistance (see “Contacting ADC” on page 335 for contact information).
If the thermal- interface material is damaged, the installation and use of the RF Module
may void the warranty of the RF Module.
Open the Remote enclosure.
Remove release liners, if present, from the thermal pads on the RF Module prior
to installing the module into the Remote chassis.
The thermal pads are very sensitive to mishandling—do not nick, scratch, or ding them.
Thermal pads are located as follows:
•
one large pad on the back surface (LPA)
•
up to two on the front surface (DARTs)
•
two on the left side for the (RDI).
Hold the RF Module so that the DART card(s) face away from the Remote and the
Mounting Hook is toward the Receiving flange on the Remote chassis.
Always install RF Modules from the bottom up and do not skip a shelf.

5 Follow these rules when connecting the RF Module cables:
•
At each RF Module shelf, the Power (PWR) cable and two high-speed-data
cables will always be provided.
•
If you are installing a Non-Diversity Chassis, only one RF cable labeled MOD N
TX0/RX0 will be populated.
•
Always connect the high-speed-data cable labeled DIV. This protects against
the cable getting caught in the chassis door.
•
If you are installing a Diversity Chassis, both RF cables labeled MOD N TX0/RX0
and MOD N RX1 will be populated.
•
For Diversity modules, all cables are to be connected.
•
If you order a Non-Diversity RF Module and are installing it in a Diversity
chassis, connect it as if it was being installed into a Non-Diversity chassis.
•
When you order a Dual SuperDART module, connect both high-speed data
cables (PRIM and DIV) and the RF TX0/RX0 cable.
•
Adhere to a minimum bend radius of 1" for all RF cables from the integrated
cable guide to the module.
•
Maintain adequate strain relief distances from connection points to the
module.
16
6 Working from the bottom connector up, connect the RF Module cables.
If this is a Diversity chassis, connect the RF Diversity cable labeled MOD N RX1
to the RX1 connector and turn the thumbscrew to secure the cable to the
chassis.
Connect the RF cable labeled MOD N TX0/RX0 to the TX0/RX0 connector and
turn the thumbscrew to secure the cable to the chassis.
Connect the MOD N DIV high-speed-data cable to the DIV connector. This
connects the Remote SeRF interface board (RSI) to the Diversity DART.
Always connect the Diversity high- speed- data cable, even for non- diversity modules.
This prevents the cable from getting caught between the chassis door and the RF
Module.
d Connect the MOD N PRIM high-speed cable to the PRIM connector. This connects
the RSI to the Primary DART.
Connect the Power cable to the PWR connector. This connects the RF Module to
the DC power connection.

cables must be terminated with an N-Type male connector for connection to the
Remote antenna port or the lightning surge suppressor (accessory).
To comply with Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) requirements, the maximum
composite output from the antenna cannot exceed 1640 Watts EIRP and the antenna
must be permanently installed in a fixed location that provides at least 6 meters (20 feet)
of separation from all persons.

4.4.8
AC Power Wiring Installation
A 15-foot, 3-wire cable with connectors is provided for the AC power connections.
The connector end of the cable connects to the AC power port located on the bottom
of the unit. The stub end of the cable must be routed to an external junction box (not
provided) for permanent connection to the AC power system wiring.
The AC power source must supply between 100 and 240 VAC, 50 or 60 Hz,
single-phase power through a circuit breaker or fuse. The AC power cable provides
three wire leads for line, neutral, and ground connections. 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. The electrical junction box and any
conduit, wire, and fittings required must be provided by the installer.
Use extreme caution when working with high voltage AC power. Ensure all power is
disconnected before working on power circuits.
All electrical work must comply with local codes and requirements. A locally licensed
electrical contractor is best qualified to perform this work. For additional information,
consult with the ADC Technical Assistance Center (see “Contacting ADC” on page 335).

FlexWave EMS Overview
As shown in Figure 5-2, you access the embedded EMS through the Host, where RF
signals are converted to optical signals for distribution to the local coverage area. The
EMS is thus in a position to monitor both types of signals, and to report status,
alarms, and RF signal levels through automatic, periodic updates and in response to
user requests. User requests can include commands to set RF gain and propagation
delay.

EMS Alarm Indications
5.5
EMS ALARM INDICATIONS
Some EMS parameter values are associated with alarms. When a parameter enters an
alarm state, an alarm status indicator is activated where the color of the indicates the
alarm severity (Figure 5-5):
•
Red status indicator—major alarm
•
Yellow status indicator—minor alarm
•
Green status indicator—normal (okay) state
•
White status indicator—a device or component is not communicating, but is in the
EMS database
•
Grey status indicator—alarm is masked.

EMS SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
The computer that you use to remotely access the EMS must meet the following
minimum requirements:
•
Windows 2000 or Windows XP operating system
•
Internet Explorer version 6.0. When a direct connection is made, an internet
connection is not needed, but the user interface still displays in a Web browser.
•
Network Interface Card (NIC)
•
Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connectors.
The EMS database can also be accessed remotely using an SNMP manager. In this case,
the user interface varies depending on the SNMP manager, but the underlying
parameters, parameter values, and alarms are the same as in the standard EMS
interface.

Clock external setting allows you to frequency lock the master clock to an external
10 MHz reference.
When using the 10 MHz external reference clock, the signal must be connected to the
Host before enabling the clock in the software. If an external 10MHz reference clock is
selected for operation, but is not present or outside of the frequency range of 10MHz
+ /- 5ppm, communication between the Host and Remote over the optical fiber will fail.

21
1 Select Ip Enable to configure the Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) for exchange of
management traffic. By default Ip Enable is not selected. If Ip Enable is left
unselected, the SFP cannot exchange management traffic. How you set Ip Enable is
dependent on the system configuration:
•
In a multifiber scenario, do not enable IP on both SFPs from the same Host to
the same Remote. Typically, the first SFP on the Host that goes to that Remote
is used as the IP enabled port for management communications.
•
In a Multi-Host system, multiple fibers connected to a Remote come from
different Hosts. However, a Remote can accept an IP connection from only one
Host and only one Host can “own” the Remote for the purposes of provisioning
and monitoring. When a second Host attempts to establish an IP connection,
this second connection fails and an IP Conflict alarm is triggered. You
therefore select Ip Enable only for the Host that manages the Remote so that
only one of the fibers connected to the Remote will have IP.

CONFIGURE THE HOST DARTS
Configuring a Host DART provides information required for the DART to operate in
RF transmission. Each DART is configured in hardware to operate within a specific RF
band such as PCS or Cellular; the passband is a software-defined sub-band of the
hardware-defined band. Forward and reverse path gain, diversity status, and
operating mode may also be set when a Host DART is configured. The same settings
are applied to the Remote DART when linked to the Host DART. The Host has eight
slots for DART cards.
If you are setting up a multi- host system, go to “(Optional) Configuring Multi-Host
Systems for Manual Mode” on page 168.

5 In the Configuration and Alarm Details of DART n window that opens, set the DART
Attributes:
In the DART Name box, enter a name for the DART between 5 and 32 characters
with no spaces. The only special character allowed is an underscore, but it
cannot be the first character of the name. Numerals are allowed, but cannot be
the first character of the name.
In the DART Pass Band (Timeslots) list, select the DART Pass Band to be
supported by this DART. The list will include only those pass bands that are
valid selections for the DART band. For example, if the DART band is
“cellular,” only cell pass bands are listed.
In the DART Operating Mode list, select one of the following:
•
Standby—forces the RF function to be muted in the Host and its linked
Remote.
•
Normal—allows the system to operate normally (RF function not forced to
be muted), assuming all other system components are in proper working
order. (Default setting.)
The mode Undefined is not user selectable, and indicates that the EMS is
unaware of the current mode.
d In the DART Diversity Status list, select nonDiversity or diversity. For a diversity
application, one DART will be configured nonDiversity for the primary
FWD/REV path signal and the other DART will be configured Diversity. This
selection therefore determines whether the DART card being configured will
carry the primary or secondary RF path.

Initial Prism System Setup
For dual DART configurations, such as dual-pcs, smr800/smr900 and
dual-aws, both DARTs must have DART Diversity Status set to nonDiversity.
The diversity status of the Host DART will extend to the Remote DART connected to it.
For further information, see “Link the Host and Remote DARTs.” on page 159.
In the DART Forward Gain list, set this value (0 to 31 dB) based upon the fully
loaded forward path signal level from the Base Station. The Host DART expects
signal levels from -25 to +5 dBm. If the fully loaded signal is +5 dBm, then the
DART forward gain should be set to 0 dB, if the fully loaded signal is -25 dBm,
then the DART Forward Gain should be set to 30 dB. The equation is:
DART Forward Gain = 5 - fullyLoadedBasestationSignal.
If you are setting up the system when no calls are going through, you must allow
headroom for a fully loaded forward path. For CDMA protocols, the difference from
unloaded to fully loaded is typically 8dB, so if the unloaded signal is - 15dBm, then the
fully loaded input would be - 7 dBm and the Host Forward Gain should be set to 5- (- 7)
= 12 dB.
The same rules applies for GSM carriers, except that the unloaded to loaded is
determined by the equation 10*log10(# RF Channels). So if there are 4 GSM RF Channels,
then the loaded forward path is 6 dB above unloaded.
If sufficient headroom is not present, then the LPA can be over- powered causing a Loss
Of Service.
When configured correctly, the Host DART Forward input can handle peaks of 14dB
above the BTS signal level. For example, if the fully loaded CDMA carrier is - 25dBm, then
peaks up to - 11 dBm can be handled (CDMA peak to average is typically 10- 12 dB). If
the peaks exceed the 14 dB of headroom, then Automatic Level Control (ALC) will occur
to prevent over- driving the A/D Converter.
Set the DART Reverse Gain value to achieve the required gain from the input to
the Remote to the output of the Host DART. The range is:
•
5 to 36 dB for Cellular, SMR800, SMR900, Narrowband PCS & Narrowband
AWS DARTs
•
0 to 31 dB for Fullband GSM1800, UMTS, Fullband AWS, and EGSM900

ADCP-77-073 • Issue 2 • 11/2009
Configure the Host DARTs
When setting the DART Reverse Gain value, the following rules must be
observed:
The DART Reverse Gain setting can be used to overcome losses from the Host
DART to the BTS. If you want unity reverse path gain and the losses to the
BTS are 20 dB, then the Reverse Gain should be set to 20 dB.
If you want to match the URH noise floor to the BTS noise floor, then the
noise floors for both the URH and the BTS must be known. Use the DART
Reverse Gain to match these to optimize the reverse path. For example, if the
BTS has a noise floor of -114 dBm/30 kHz and the URH has a single Remote
noise floor of -124 dBm/30kHz, and there is 2 dB of loss from the Host
DART to the BTS, then the Reverse path gain should be set to 12 dB.
Simulcast changes the actual REV gain level by 20log(n) where n = the
number of simulcast links. For example, if REV gain is set to 10dB in a 2:1
simulcast configuration, the actual REV gain is only 4dB (10dB - 6dB). If REV
gain is set to 20dB in a 4:1 simulcast, the actual gain is 8dB (20dB - 12dB).
The Noise Floor of the URH goes up of 10*log10(n), where n = simulcast #.
For example, the single node Remote noise floor is -124 dBm/30kHz
(Before any Reverse path gain), then the noise floor for two remotes is -121
dBm, for 4 remotes it is -118 dBm/30kHz and for 8 remotes it is -115 dBm.
Dual PCS uplink splitting causes a 3 dB degradation in the noise figure.

LINK THE HOST AND REMOTE DARTS.
If you are setting up a multi- host system, go to “(Optional) Configuring Multi-Host
Systems for Manual Mode” on page 168.
“Linking” establishes an association in software between a particular Host DART and
a particular Remote DART, enabling the two DARTs to act as an operational unit in
providing one RF band. There are four pre-requisites to this procedure:
•
The Host DART and Remote DART must be connected through the optical fiber
and be communicating with each other.
•
The Host DART card must be configured as described in “Configure the Host
DARTs” on page 152.
•
The Host and Remote DARTs must be of the same type (such as, Cellular or PCS).
•
There must be a sufficient number of fiber timeslots available in order to
accommodate the requested passband (for example, PCS A band requires 3
timeslots).
In the Remote DART configuration page, all Host DARTs are listed that have the same
band as the Remote DART. A link is established by selecting a Host DART to be paired
with the Remote DART.
6.9.1
Use of Multi Fibers
The EMS provides the ability to install “multi fibers” between a Host and Remote. This
means that, in addition to the minimum two fibers (RX and TX) in the Host to Remote
connection, one or more additional fiber pairs are installed. This is done to increase
the bandwidth between the Host and Remote. Each fiber pair can handle
approximately 75 Mbps of RF bandwidth.
Each fiber is capable of supporting 12 TDM timeslots:
•
•
Classic DARTs or Single SuperDARTs support up to 35 MHz of RF
–
Cellular
–
SMR800
–
SMR900
–
PCS Narrowband
–
AWS Narrowband
–

Initial Prism System Setup
When a Host DART is linked to a Remote DART in a multi-fibers configuration, the
EMS uses the first fiber (in numerical order) on which the required number of
timeslots is available for the passband being linked. The EMS will not divide up the
timeslots between two fibers. So, for example, if the passband requires eight
timeslots, and only six timeslots are available on the first fiber, the EMS will bypass
the first fiber and assign all eight timeslots to the second fiber, leaving four timeslots
unused on the second fiber.
6.9.2

The EMS Alarm Summary of RF Groups view displays up to four rectangles labeled RF
Module / Band N (where N equals A, B, C, or D). Each rectangle represents one RF Module

7 Click Apply. The following example shows the completed link (in this case, Host
DART SFP Id 8 has been selected).
If multi fibers are connected between the Host and Remote, the system will try the fibers
in numerical sequence until a link can be established for the identified passband. If no
fiber is available providing the number of TDM timeslots required for the passband, an
error message is returned indicating that “DART linking failed due to a problem on the
host.”
If adding a link to an existing simulcast connection, the system requires the use of the
same timeslots. If the timeslots aren't available, the system returns the following error
message: “DART linking failed due to a problem on the host.”

As soon as you set the LPA Operating Mode to normal, RF transmission will start. Before
you set the LPA Operating Mode to normal, make sure that the antenna has been
connected and the system is ready to transmit RF. For information on connecting the
antenna, see “Antenna Cable Installation” on page 123.

9 In the DART Forward Gain list, select the dB (0 to 31), which is the actual gain, not
attenuation, that will be applied to the RF forward path signal (where 0 = 0 dB gain,
1 = 1 dB gain, and so forth) The DART Forward Gain is based on the EIRP desired
at the antenna. You therefore need to know how much cable, insertion, and any
other loss (such as splitters) exist between the Remote and the antenna. Set the
DART Forward Gain to achieve the required output power level to meet the EIRP of
your RF link budget.
The following table provides calculations you need to set the gains to achieve the
desired Output power for a single-DART configuration.

For dual-DART configurations, you need to reduce each path by 3dB at the Remote
DART Forward Gain. For example, for a DART Input Level of -25dBm, the Host FWD
Gain setting would be 31dB and the Remote FWD Gain setting would be 28dB.

0 In the DART Forward Delay box, set in microseconds the actual delay that will be
applied to the RF forward path signal. The minimum delay required is calculated.
The acceptable range of delays is 88us. If you attempt to set the delay to a value
outside the allowed range, the DART uses either the minimum or maximum,
dependant on whether the DART is exceeding the set delay (too high or low).
Be aware of simulcast links. Observe the minimum delay required for the longest
link, and set the delay to the same value for all simulcast nodes in the same
connection based on this value.
Here is an example:
•
Fiber has 8 usec per mile of fiber.
•
Remote 1 has 5 miles of fiber (40 usec of fiber delay).
•
Remote 2 has 10 miles of fiber (80 usec of fiber delay).
•
Remotes are set to Cellular A"/A Band which has 8 usec of system delay. The
delay ranges will therefore be:
–
Remote 1 delay (48-136)
–
Remote 2 delay (88-176)
The system calculates these delay values—this is a typical example based on the fiber
lengths provided. You select a delay value that’s within the range calculated by the
system.
Set the delays to the same values for all nodes in the network in order to:
•
Optimize simulcast
•
Make BTS datafill changes simple (same delay offsets for all nodes)
•
Simplify E-911 integration (same delay offsets for all nodes)
Delays cannot be shortened; they can only be lengthened. The recommended
approach is to normalize all Remotes to the longer minimum delay. In this
example the delay would therefore have to be 88 usec.
41
1 In the DART Reverse Delay box, set in microseconds the actual delay that will be
applied to the RF reverse path signal. The actual delay of the RF path will be within
1 usec. For E-911 TDOA applications, the reverse path delay must be measured to
achieve the +/- 50 nsec delay accuracy specified for DAS networks. The FWD and
REV delay values are usually the same because the fiber path between the two is
typically the same.

(OPTIONAL) CONFIGURING MULTI-HOST SYSTEMS
FOR MANUAL MODE
You can only switch between the Automated and Manual modes when there are no active
links in the system. Once a link is established the mode is locked and selections in the
Linking Mode list are disabled. All active links must be unlinked to enable the selections
in the Linking Mode list.
When the Prism system is set to Automated linking mode, you establish a link in the
Configuration Details window by selecting the Host DART to link to and then clicking
Apply (see “Link a Remote DART to a Host DART” on page 162). The link is then
established on both the Host and Remote ends, using the fiber and the timeslots that
are automatically selected by the FlexWave EMS. The Remote DART also automatically
adopts the Host DART's pass band and diversity setting.
Multi-Host systems must be set to Manual linking mode so each side of the link (Host
and Remote) can be established independently. The Network Administrator must also
manually specify the fiber, timeslots, pass band, and diversity status for each end.
There is no system crosscheck to validate the selections—so the setup described in
this section should be performed only by an administrator who is very familiar with
the concepts involved.
6.11.1
Set the Multi-Host System to Manual Mode
In the Function Explorer Tree, select System View, Host-Unknown_HostName to open
the Host Summary view in the EMS View Frame. (For information on the read-only
status indicators in the Host Summary view, see “Viewing the Host Summary” on
page 214.)
In the Linking Mode list, select Manual.
Click Apply.
6.11.2
Configure the Host DARTs
In the Function Explorer Tree, select System View, Host-x, SERF, DARTS (where -x is
the Host name) to open the DART’s Alarm Summary view in the EMS View Frame.
The DART’s Alarm Summary view displays all the Host DARTS that are present,
starting from slot 1 at the top of the list and working sequentially down to last
DART, which can be slots 1-8.
In the Information column, click on the Band-Config link for the DART to be
configured.

In the Configuration and Alarm Details of DART n window that opens, set the DART
Attributes. The table at the bottom of the Configuration and Alarm Details of DART n
window shows how many SFPs have been discovered that are available for
linking—their corresponding timeslots are blank.
In the DART Name box, enter a name for the DART between 5 and 32 characters
with no spaces. The only special character allowed is an underscore, but it
cannot be the first character of the name. Numerals are allowed, but cannot be
the first character of the name.
In the DART Pass Band (Timeslots) list, select the DART Pass Band to be
supported by this DART. The list will include only those pass bands that are
valid selections for the DART band. For example, if the DART band is
“cellular,” only cell pass bands are listed.
In the New Link list, select the SFP ID for the fiber to be used to communicate
with the Remote for the DART's RF. Only the IDs of fiber with enough available
contiguous timeslots for the selected passband will be available in the New Link
list. The table in the lower part of the screen shows which fibers are available
and which timeslots on the fibers are in use. Be careful to select a fiber to the
Remote to which you want to link.
d In the Timeslots list, select the timeslots on the fiber that will carry the RF. The
Timeslots list displays the range of timeslots that can be used—only unused
timeslots will be available for selection. If the DART is already linked to a
Remote, the Timeslots list comprises the timeslots being used for that previous
link. If you are linking to more than one Remote, the same timeslots must be
used on all fibers for this DART.

(Optional) Configuring Multi-Host Systems for Manual Mode
In the DART Operating Mode list, select one of the following:
•
Standby—forces the RF function to be muted in the Host and its linked
Remote.
•
Normal—allows the system to operate normally (RF function not forced to
be muted), assuming all other system components are in proper working
order. (Default setting.)
The mode Undefined is not user selectable, and indicates that the EMS is
unaware of the current mode.
In the DART Diversity Status list, select nonDiversity or diversity. For a diversity
application, one DART will be configured nonDiversity for the primary
FWD/REV path signal and the other DART will be configured Diversity. This
selection therefore determines whether the DART card being configured will
carry the primary or secondary RF path.
For dual DART configurations, such as dual-pcs, smr800/smr900 and
dual-aws, both DARTs must have DART Diversity Status set to nonDiversity.
The diversity status of the Host DART will not extend to the Remote DART connected to
it. You must explicitly configure the Remote DART to have the same diversity status as
the Host DART.
In the DART Forward Gain list, set this value (0 to 31 dB) based upon the fully
loaded forward path signal level from the Base Station. The Host DART expects
signal levels from -25 to +5 dBm. If the fully loaded signal is +5 dBm, then the
DART forward gain should be set to 0 dB, if the fully loaded signal is -25 dBm,
then the DART Forward Gain should be set to 30 dB. The equation is:
DART Forward Gain = 5 - fullyLoadedBasestationSignal.
If you are setting up the system when no calls are going through, you must allow
headroom for a fully loaded forward path. For CDMA protocols, the difference from
unloaded to fully loaded is typically 8dB, so if the unloaded signal is - 15dBm, then the
fully loaded input would be - 7 dBm and the Host Forward Gain should be set to 5- (- 7)
= 12 dB.
The same rules applies for GSM carriers, except that the unloaded to loaded is
determined by the equation 10*log10(# RF Channels). So if there are 4 GSM RF Channels,
then the loaded forward path is 6 dB above unloaded.
If sufficient headroom is not present, then the LPA can be over- powered causing a Loss
Of Service.
When configured correctly, the Host DART Forward input can handle peaks of 14dB
above the BTS signal level. For example, if the fully loaded CDMA carrier is - 25dBm, then
peaks up to - 11 dBm can be handled (CDMA peak to average is typically 10- 12 dB). If
the peaks exceed the 14 dB of headroom, then Automatic Level Control (ALC) will occur
to prevent over- driving the A/D Converter.

Using the EMS to Manage a Prism System
7.4
WORKING WITH PRISM SYSTEM NETWORK
INTERFACES
You use the EMS to configure the Prism system for one of the two different modes
listed below, which affects how you configure the network interface of the Network
and Craft ports and how you access the system through the EMS. In each mode, the
Host and its subtended Remotes require the same configuration. Both modes require
a DHCP server, which assigns an IP address to the Host and its subtended Remotes.
•
External Network mode—is the default mode. The Host and subtended Remotes are
DHCP clients and expect IP addresses to be assigned by an external DHCP server
through a network Ethernet connector. If there is no external DHCP server, the
Host will not be able to communicate with any connected Remotes.
The Host Craft port has a DHCP server that you can use to communicate with the
Host directly. The IP address for the Host Craft port is 192.168.0.1. You can access
the EMS via the Craft port, but if the Network port is not connected to an external
DHCP server, the Remotes will not be visible to you.
•
Built-in Network mode—Built-In Network mode is best suited for when there is no
network to connect to or if the Prism network does not have a DHCP server. In
Built-In Network mode, the functionality of the Network port and the Craft port
are swapped. You connect a laptop to the Host Network port, which is assigned a
default fixed IP address of 10.0.0.1 and all subtended network interfaces obtain a
DHCP address in this same subnet. Alternatively, in Built-In Network mode you
can connect the Craft port to an external DHCP server from which the Craft port
obtains its IP address.
Static Mode—You also have the option of giving the devices on your Prism system static
IP addresses. Contact ADC for further information (see “Contacting ADC” on page 335).
There are potential problems in switching between the External Network and Built- In
Network modes. If cabled incorrectly your DHCP server could provide private IP
addresses on a public network. Set the Prism system mode once and then do not change
it.
Table 7-1 describes how the system mode affects the IP address for the Host and
subtended Remotes.

Using the EMS to Manage a Prism System
7.4.1
Changing to Built-In Network Mode
Only a user logged in under the admin or a Network Manager account can change Prism
settings through the EMS.
Built-In Network mode allows all Remotes to be assigned an IP address to allow
communication without the need for an external DHCP router. You therefore set the
Prism system to Built-In Network mode if there is no network to connect to or if the
network does not have a DHCP server. You would also change the Prism system to
Built-In Network mode if you intend to transition to static IP addresses.
When changing from External Network mode to Built- In Network mode, if the Prism
system is cabled incorrectly, the Prism DHCP server could broadcast private IP
addresses on a public network. You should therefore only change the mode once,
preferably during setup.
To open the Host Summary view in the EMS View Frame, in the Function Explorer
Tree select System View, and then click on the Host name node.
Set Network Interface to Built-In Network. This sets the Network port on the Host to
the IP address 10.0.0.1 and starts a DHCP server on the Host that will provide IP
addresses to connected Remotes. Built-In Network mode also causes the Host
Craft port to run a DHCP client instead of using the IP address 192.168.0.1.

Connect the free end of the Ethernet cable to the computer’s port. Leave your
computer in DHCP mode. It will automatically receive an IP address in the
10.0.0.0/24 subnet from the Host Network port.
It can take a while for the system to update the interfaces (can be up to 30 minutes, but
typically is no more than 10 minutes). If the Remotes already have a DHCP IP address
from an external network and you change it to built- in (in a different subnet), it can take
30 minutes for the Remote to request an update from an external IP address to the
10.0.0.x IP address. During this transient period, there will not be communication with
the Remotes.
The Host will also take awhile to change from an external IP address to the 10.0.0.1 Ip
address, so a period of no communication with the Host can be expected as well.
Open a Web browser and in its URL field, enter the Host IP address: 10.0.0.1

Click OK. The Welcome to ADC FlexWave Prism Embedded Web Server page opens.
7.4.2
EMS Access Methods
The FlexWave EMS has four access methods that are listed below and as shown and
numbered in Figure 7-3.
A laptop subtended to the Craft port on the Host provides direct access to the
EMS. In this scenario the Host and the Remote can be configured and monitored
through the EMS. This is the default access scenario during initial configuration
and commissioning as described in “Access the EMS” on page 144.
A personal computer with a Web browser connected through the internet or
intranet to the Network port on the Host. This method provides a remote user
access to the EMS through a Local Area Network (LAN) or Wide Area Network
(WAN). In this scenario the Host and subtended Remotes can be configured and
monitored through the EMS. After initial system setup, this is the default access
method.
EMS Access Methods 1 and 2 are true for the default External Network mode described
in this chapter. If your Prism system is set to Built- in Network mode, then the
definitions for EMS Access Methods 1 and 2 for the Host Network and Craft ports are
are switched.
A personal computer with a Web browser connected to the Network port on the
Remote provides a remote user a LAN connection to the Host network interface,
which provides access to the EMS. See “Accessing the EMS Through the Remote
Network Port” on page 189.

7.4.2.1
Accessing the EMS Through the Remote Network Port
The Remote provides a Network port allowing communications with the internal
processor and transfer of service data to the optical protocol allowing IP servicing
between the Host and Remote(s). This port is customer accessible for monitoring the
interface with the subtended Host and ENET subtended devices at the Remote. The
Network port is 10/100/1000 BASE-T MDI and requires a minimum of CAT 5 cable.
Although the Network port on the Remote is a GigE port, the available bandwidth is only
100Mbps (part of this bandwidth is used for system management services).
You cannot dedicate a full 100Mbps of bandwidth for external ethernet services off the
Remote’s Network port. For example, if connecting a WiFi access point to the Remote’s
Network port, you need to reduce the available bandwidth to less than 100Mbps (such
as, 50Mbps).
The network cable must be terminated with a hardened RJ-45 male connector for
connection to the Network port. The maximum cable length is 300 feet (91.4 m).
Use the following procedure to install the Network cable and then log in to the EMS.

You can use the Craft port on the SeRF Module to access the FlexWave EMS to view
system configuration and alarms. For example, if there is a problem communicating
with the Remote and you have determined that fiber is not the issue, connecting to
the Craft port helps you obtain beneficial troubleshooting information.
When you access the EMS through the Remote Craft port, the EMS GUI shows only the
Remote in its Function Explorer Tree. You cannot configure any system components or
clear alarms.
Verify that your PC network interface is configured for DHCP.
If you have a wireless network interface, disable it. Otherwise an IP conflict may
result if the wireless network resides in the same IP subnet as the Craft port.

Managing User Accounts
8.1
FLEXWAVE EMS USER ACCOUNTS
The EMS provides security, which can be broadly classified as:
•
User Authentication, which defines the way a user is identified prior to being
allowed to log on to the EMS. User Authentication ensures that only known users
have access by providing a method of identifying each user through a user ID and
password.
•
User Authorization, which involves managing the user’s privileges in the Prism
network management infrastructure. Authorization is based on the concept of
user access system configuration restrictions.
There are three user-access levels that can be assigned by the admin:
•
admin—the default user account that has unrestricted access to all EMS user
accounts and management capabilities. To protect against unauthorized access to
the Prism network, the user assigned the admin role should follow the process
described in “Changing Your Own Password” on page 208 to change the password
for the admin user account.
•
Network Manager—has read and write access to all system functions except user
account management.
•
Network User—has read only permissions into the system.
There are also two default user-access levels for the Remote that cannot be deleted
or changed:
•
Operator—has Read and Write access to only the Prism Remote functions, all
other operations are Read Only. (This user is not available on URH Remotes.)
•
Viewer—has Read Only rights for Prism and URH Remotes.
FlexWave EMS prevents a login in which the user enters an invalid User ID or
password.
