Single-Bay Prism Remote Unit Dual-Bay Prism Remote Unit Tri-Bay Prism Remote Unit Quad-Bay Prism Remote Unit Figure 1. Prism Remote Units (PRUs) Depending on the Prism Remote Unit model, a PRU enclosure can have from one to four RF Module bays and can support up to four RF Modules, as indicated by the model name. That is, the Single-Bay PRU has one RF Module bay and can only support one RF Module, and the Quad-Bay PRU has four RF Module bays and can support up to four RF Modules. The function of the Remote Unit RF Modules on the Forward Path is to: • convert the digitized RF transported from the Host to Analog RF • amplify the Analog RF signal • provide signal filtering. The function of the Remote Unit RF Modules on the Reverse Path is to: • convert the Analog RF from the handset to Digital RF for transport to the Host • amplify the Digital RF signal • provide signal filtering. NOTE: The RF Modules are field replaceable, but cannot be serviced in the field. Page 6 ©2015 TE Connectivity FlexWave Prism Remote Unit RF Module Installation Guide TECP-77-141 Issue 8 • 300001744178 Rev H • August 2015 RF Module Digital/Analog Radio Transceivers Each RF Module can support any of the following Digital/Analog Radio Transceiver (DART) combinations: • one Classic DART or one Single SuperDART • two Classic DARTs (i.e., the 6.5W 800/900 ESMR Module, Non-Diversity, Classic) • two Classic DARTs—Diversity • two Single SuperDARTs—Diversity • one Dual SuperDART • one or two sets of Tx and Rx Boards (HDM). Each RF Module will have up to two 6-timeslot DARTs or one 12-timeslot DART per RF Module. The DART type determines the maximum number of links, where there can be up to eight Classic DARTs or Single SuperDARTs that support 39 MHz each, or up to 4 Dual SuperDARTs that support up to 75MHz each. Prism supports the DART Module types listed below. • Classic DARTs are 6-timeslot DARTs that support up to 35 MHz contiguous bandwidth (see Table 4 on page 7). • Single SuperDARTs are 6-timeslot DARTs that support two non-contiguous bands in the entire frequency range of the DART, but cannot exceed 39 MHz total RF bandwidth (see Table 5 on page 8). • Dual SuperDARTs are 12-timeslot DARTs that support up to 60-75 MHz (see Table 6 on page 8) NOTE: Industry Canada PCS 20 dB nominal bandwidth is less than 61.5 MHz.

FlexWave Prism Remote Unit RF Module Installation Guide TECP-77-141 Issue 8 • 300001744178 Rev H • August 2015 Page 13 ©2015 TE Connectivity Duplexer and Low Noise Amplifier The RF Module provides the Remote Unit with an internal Duplexer that is optimized to provide the desired RF band-pass filtering and in-band equipment isolation between FWD and REV paths. The Duplexer provides the filtering necessary to the transmit and receive paths to and from the connected antenna. The Duplexer for the Single- and Dual-Bay RF Modules and the Legacy Dual-Bay 40W RF Modules contains up to two REV path Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA for PRI and/or SEC reverse paths). The Duplexer for an HDM RF Module does not have a Low Noise Amplifier. Duplexers are not field serviceable. Digital Processing Module The Digital Processing Module (DPM) is found only in the HDM RF Modules. The DPM provides the primary processing and logic functions for the HDM RF Module. It also provides the primary power interface for the HDM RF Module, and conversion of the native 28 Vdc voltage to lower voltages as necessary for functionality. The DPM has a Transmit (Tx) Board and a Receive (Rx) Board: • Tx Board—provides band specific filtering for the intended Transmit path. • Rx Board—provides band specific filtering for the intended Receive path. Cables Always provided at each RF Module shelf are five cables: • two High-Speed Data Cables, which in this document are referred to as LVDS (Low-Voltage Differential Signaling) cables • two RF Cables (TX0/RX0) and (TX1/RX1) • one Power (PWR) Cable. The RF Module cables that are pre-installed in the PRU connect to the corresponding connectors on the RF Module. The RF Module cables correlate to the antenna connectors on the bottom of the Remote Unit chassis. • Page 14 ©2015 TE Connectivity FlexWave Prism Remote Unit RF Module Installation Guide TECP-77-141 Issue 8 • 300001744178 Rev H • August 2015 RF GROUP ASSIGNMENTS FOR PRU RF MODULE BAYS A PRU comprises from one to four RF Module bays.

FlexWave Prism Remote Unit RF Module Installation Guide TECP-77-141 Issue 8 • 300001744178 Rev H • August 2015 Page 17 ©2015 TE Connectivity UNDERSTANDING RF CABLE RULES • When installing a Diversity, MIMO or Dual-Band RF Module, both RF cables labeled MOD N TX0/RX0 and MOD N TX1/RX1 shall be connected to the N-Style connections of the RF Module. Note that older labeling schemes used “PRI” and “DIV”. To match old labeling schemes to current labeling: Old Label New Label PRI DIV TX0/RX0 TX1/RX1 • When installing a Non-Diversity or SISO RF Module, or an SMR 800/900 Dual-Band Dual-Bay RF Module: – The MOD N TX0/RX0 cable shall be connected to the single available N-Style RF Connection of the RF Module. – The MOD N TX1/RX1 cable shall be constrained to the existing cables using a tie wrap or similarly accepted fastener so it cannot be pinched or prevent the Remote Unit door from closing. Do not cut or attempt to otherwise remove this RF Cable. • RF cables are hand-formable; however, cables must adhere to a minimum bend radius of 1-inch from the outlet of the integrated cable guide to the respective N-Style RF connection on the RF Module. RF Module Cables and Supported Bay Use for Single-Card, Dual-Card, and HDM RF Modules The RF cable and connector labels correspond to the RF Module bays in the Remote Unit chassis, where MOD A is the bottom bay and MOD D is the top bay. • The cables and connectors have corresponding labels as shown in Table 11 for Single-Card, Dual-Card, and HDM RF Modules. For Dual-Bay installations, the RF cables and connectors are labeled as MOD N TX0/RX0 and MOD N TX1/RX1, where N refers to the top bay of the double-bay installation. For example: – For a Dual-Bay installation in a Quad-Bay chassis in which the RF Module is installed in the Bay D and Bay C combination, the RF cables and connectors are labeled as MOD D TX0/RX0 and MOD D TX1/RX1. – For a Dual-Bay installation in a Tri-Bay chassis in which the RF Module is installed in the Bay B and Bay A combination, the RF cables and connectors are labeled as MOD B TX0/RX0 and MOD B TX1/RX1. • Table 11 also shows which RF Module type can be installed in which PRU bay or bay combination. • The Single-Bay chassis is not included in Table 11.

Page 20 ©2015 TE Connectivity FlexWave Prism Remote Unit RF Module Installation Guide TECP-77-141 Issue 8 • 300001744178 Rev H • August 2015 INSTALL THE RF MODULE(S) The following sections guide you through the installation of an RF Module into a Remote Unit chassis. The process to install the four different types of RF Modules is basically the same; however, differences are noted and should be followed. NOTE: In the following steps, the RF cables and connectors are referred to as MOD N TX0/RX0 and as MOD N TX1/RX1 where N equals A, B, C, or D. NOTE: When installing RF Modules, populate the RF Modules from highest frequency band to lowest within the Remote Unit chassis. Likewise for power output, populate from the bottom bay to the top; higher output to lower output. That is, for a deployment with 2100 40W, 1900 40W, 850 20W and 700 20W MIMO, install the RF Modules as follows: • 2100 40W RF Module in Bay A • 1900 40W RF Module in Bay B • 850 20W RF Module in Bay C • 700 20W MIMO RF Module in Bay D. Safety Precautions CAUTION! This is restricted access equipment and only qualified service personnel should service and operate this equipment using appropriate tools. CAUTION! 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. 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 (5.1 cm). CAUTION! Exterior surfaces of the Prism Remote Unit may be hot. Use caution during servicing. CAUTION! Service personnel must confirm that the perimeter gasket and door-to-door gaskets are in place when closing the Remote Unit doors after servicing. CAUTION! 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. CAUTION! This system is an RF Transmitter and continuously emits RF energy. Maintain 3 foot (91.4 cm) minimum clearance from the antenna while the system is operating. Wherever possible, shut down the RAN before servicing the antenna. FlexWave Prism Remote Unit RF Module Installation Guide TECP-77-141 Issue 8 • 300001744178 Rev H • August 2015 Page 21 ©2015 TE Connectivity Guard against Damage from Electro-Static Discharge CAUTION! Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To prevent ESD damage, always wear an ESD wrist strap when working with a Prism Remote Unit or when handling any of its components—including the RF Modules. Connect the ground wire on the ESD wrist strap to an earth ground source before touching the Prism Remote Unit or any of its components. Wear the wrist strap the entire time that you work with the Prism Remote Unit and its components. CAUTION! Place Prism RF Modules in anti-static packing material when transporting or storing them. Unpack and Inspect the RF Module 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 TE Customer Service (see “Contacting TE Connectivity” on page 51). Save the damaged cartons for inspection by the carrier. Save all shipping containers for use if the equipment requires shipment at a future date. CAUTION! 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, DARTs, and/or Motherboard with TX/RX boards. 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 TE Connectivity for assistance (see “Contacting TE Connectivity” on page 51 for contact information). CAUTION! If the thermal-interface material is damaged, the installation and use of the RF Module may void the warranty of the RF Module.
