1.3 Warnings and Hazards
Lithium Battery: CAUTION. RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY INCORRECT TYPE.
DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO INSTRUCTIONS.
Opening or tampering the ADX DAS will void all warranties.
WARRANTY
Actual separation distance is determined upon gain of antenna used.
Please maintain a minimum safe distance of at least 30
cm while operating near the donor and the server antennas. Also,
the donor antenna needs to be mounted outdoors on a permanent structure.
RF EXPOSURE & ANTENNA PLACEMENT Guidelines
Working with the ADX DAS
while in operation, may expose the technician to RF
electromagnetic fields that exceed FCC rules for human exposure. Visit the FCC website at
www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety
to learn more about the effects of exposure to RF electromagnetic
fields.
WARNING! EXPOSURE TO RF
Opening the ADX DAS
could result in electric shock and may cause
severe injury.

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 opera
ted 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. Operation of this equi

2. BLOCK DIAGRAM
Do not remove the protective covers on the fiber optic connectors until a connection is ready to be
made. Do not leave connectors uncovered when not connected.
The tip of the fiber optic connectors should not come into contact with any object or dust.
Refer to the cleaning procedure for information on the cleaning of the fiber tip.
Care of Fiber Optic Connectors
Fiber optic ports of the ADX DAS emit invisible laser radiation at the 1310, 1550nm wavelength
window.
To avoid eye injury never look directly into the optical ports, patch cords or optical cables. Do
not stare
into beam or view directly with optical instruments. Always assume optical output is on.
Only technicians familiar with fiber optic safety practices
and procedures should perform optical
fiber
connections and disconnections of the ADX DAS and the associated cables.
The ADX DAS
complies
with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 except for deviations pursuant to laser
notice No.50 (July26. 2001)@IEC 60825
-1, Amendment2 (Jan. 2001).

3.1.1.2 Ethernet Port
The Ethernet port can be used to communicate directly with the ADX DAS using a RJ-45 crossover cable or can
also be used to connect the ADX DAS to an external modem box.
Figure 3-4 Ethernet Port
3.1.1.3 Host/Remote Switch
The Host/Remote Switch allows the user to switch the default Repeater IP, Subnet Mask, and Gateway of the
repeater to an alternative setup. These settings can be adjusted by logging into the ADX DAS in HOST mode and
configuring the settings under the Modem Box Setting section under the Install Page of NMS.
Once the settings are set, flipping the switch to the REMOTE position will reboot NMS module with the new
alternate settings. Please note that when the NMS is set to the REMOTE position, DHCP is disabled and the NMS
will not automatically assign an IP address to any device that connects directly to the NMS.
HOST
REMOTE
Figure 3-5 Host/Remote Switch
x Host IP: 192.168.63.1 (Fixed IP, unable to modify this IP address)
x Remote IP: 192.168.63.5 (Default IP, but can be modified in Host mode)
3.1.1.4 HE View/RU View Switch
The HE View/RU View Switch allows the user to disable the periodic monitoring performed by the NMS. In the
HE view mode, the NMS monitors the status of all subordinate units connected to NMS but when switched to RU
view the NMS does not monitor the subordinate units. RU View mode will allow the user to go to a RU and
monitor/control the HE. If the NMS is set to the HE View mode and tries to connect to a RU to monitor the HE,

3.1.2.2 RF Ports
3.1.2.2.1 DL IN/UL OUT & DPX ports
DL IN/UL OUT & DPX Ports (refer to Figure 3-7) are located at the back of RFU and can be connected directly to
the BTS. The RFU can support incoming signal strength from 0 to 25dBm(in case of BT and VU, -15~37dBm).
BT RFU does not have DL IN port because of TDD(Time division duplex) system.
VU RFU does not have DPX port because there is externally optional Duplexer customized by user requirement
for VHF/UHF system.
3.1.2.2.2 DL OUT/UL IN
DL OUT/UL IN Ports (refer to Figure 3-7) are located at the front of the RFU and connect directly to the HE
Channel Combiner (ADX-H-CHC).

6. INSTALLATION
6.1 Pre-Installation Inspection
Please follow these procedures before installing ADX equipment:
o Verify the number of packages received against the packing list.
o Check all packages for external damage; report any external damage to the shipping carrier. If
there is damage, a shipping agent should be present before you unpack and inspect the contents
because damage caused during transit is the responsibility of the shipping agent.
o Open and check each package against the packing list. If any items are missing, contact ADRF
customer service.
o If damage is discovered at the time of installation, contact the shipping agent.
o Verify the AC voltage with DVM (Volt meter), then select the either 110V or 220V AC using the
selection switch located at the rear of HE and RU PSU. The ADX ships with the AC selection
switch set to the 110V position. Incorrect AC selection can damage the ADX equipment.
6.2 ADX DAS Installation Procedure
6.2.1 HE Installation Procedure
CAUTION: ADX DAS HE should be installed inside building only.
6.2.1.1 Installing a ADX DAS HE in a rack
The ADX HE chassis mounts in a standard 19” (483mm) equipment rack. Allow clearance of 3” (76mm) at the
front and rear, and 2” (51mm) on both sides for air circulation. No top or bottom clearance is required.
x Consideration:
- Eight mounting holes are located on 4 corners of ADX HE to attach it to the 19” rack. The ADX HE must be
securely attached to a rack that can support the weight of the ADX.
x Mount procedure
- The following steps should be followed while mounting the ADX HE
! Detach the wall mount bracket assembled located at the base of the ADX-HE chassis
! Verify that the HE and Mounting holes are in good condition
! Set the ADX DAS HE against the 19”rack and secure the unit with screws
! Verify that ADX HE is securely attached
! Connect the GND cable
! Connect the RF cable
! Connect the Power
! Connect the Optic cable

Clicking the Backup will create a temporary backup file stored inside of the ADX. Once the file is created, it will
need to be downloaded to a computer. A download button will appear after the backup file has been created. If
the ADX is power cycled or rebooted, then the temporary backup file will be lost. We recommend downloading
the backup file immediately after it has been created. Click on the Download button to download the backup file.

x Setting Restore
Restore function can be used to restore the saved settings from the backup file. Once the backup file is loaded,
the tree in the figure below will appear. Check the boxes of the modules that you would like to restore and then
click the “Restore” button at the bottom on this section.
We recommend creating a new backup file if adding or removing modules from the ADX. Discrepancies
between the backup file and the existing tree could cause restore errors.

8.2.5.7 System: Closeout Package
The closeout package section will allow the user to upload documents to the ADX-H-NMS. The maximum file
size for each upload is limited to 10 MB. The total amount of space available for uploading document is 100 MB.
Please do not use this section as the primary storage location of your documents. Documents may become
unavailable if the system goes down.
Figure 8-95 System- Closeout Package
To upload documents to the module, click on the “Browse” button and locate the file that you would like to
upload, then enter in a Description of the file being uploaded. Afterwards, click on the “Add File” button to upload
the file. Below is what you will see after the file upload. To delete the file, click on the delete button located in the
last column.

1 The Manufacturer's rated output power 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
