HiperMAX Masthead Equipment Installation Guide Page 39 Commercial in Confidence UGD-D00093 Rev A.1 8 Connect to Power System Hazardous voltage! Before working, ensure that the power is removed from the power connection cables. When the system is powered on, do not touch the power terminals. 8.1 Power Output to SCRT Each SCRT is provided with various lengths 48 volt power cable terminated with a male connector at one end and a female connector at the other. Warning: The male connector attaches to the SDR and the female connector attaches to the SCRT. It is important that the power connector is attached at the correct end (see illustration below) or damage to the connector/equipment will result. 8.2 Run cables to SCRTs connectorised at both ends Use this procedure to terminate the DC supply for the SCRT at the -48VDC source when using connectorised DC cable parts.  PWR-10-INST-1  PWR-30-INST-1  PWR-100-INST-1 (if using this cable the supply must be sufficient to ensure -40.5 volts are available at the SCRT) Some implementations of HiperMAX use connectorised 48V UL1015 DC cables. These same cables are used for HiperMAX-micro where both the connectorised ends are used. When using these cables for HiperMAX, however, the connectorised end at the 48VDC Source (labelled SDR) has to be removed to allow for a wires only termination. Conventional power wiring within the 48VDC Source uses blue for 48V negative and black for 48V positive. The SDR-micro uses black for 48V negative and white for return, and there is a possibility that the wires could be incorrectly terminated when used on HiperMAX. This can result in permanent damage to the SCRT. The correct termination is cited below. To run cables to SCRTs connectorised at both ends, perform the following steps:
HiperMAX Masthead Equipment Installation Guide Page 40 Commercial in Confidence UGD-D00093 Rev A.1 1. Run cable from the SCRT to the DC source breakers. (The DC source end is labelled SDR.) 2. Cut off the connector at the end labelled SDR. The picture below shows the SDR end. Figure 25 – HiperMAX-micro power connector cable termination 3. Connect to the 48VDC source distribution panel as shown in the table below: 4. Do not apply power to the SCRT until the commissioning stage.
HiperMAX Masthead Equipment Installation Guide Page 41 Commercial in Confidence UGD-D00093 Rev A.1 9 Appendix A 9.1 Review Job Sheet The Job Sheet should include the following information:  BS location and ATCA rack identity.  Whether the system is required to be locked to a GPS timing reference.  Whether the SDR is to be a Primary Master, Secondary Master or a Slave. This information will be mapped to the ATCA rack slot number by this procedure.  A BSID is required for each SDR Blade. This should be in a format xxxxxx:xxxxxx where x is a decimal digit.  The mapping of SCRT ID to OBSAI port ID on the SDR blade.  Network configuration information for the SDR blade. This shall include the following information for the front panel and the backplane. Traffic Port: Defines whether traffic is via the front panel of the SDR blade, Primary Backplane or Secondary backplane. IP Address: Should only be set if Management IP Mode is set to Static IP Address. See below for Management IP Mode parameter. Netmask: Should only be set if Management IP Mode is set to Static IP Address. See below for Management IP Mode parameter. Default Gateway: Should only be set if Management IP Mode is set to Static IP Address. See below for Management IP Mode parameter. Management VLAN: Specified as either Untagged or Tagged Management VLAN Tag: Should only be set if Management VLAN is set to Tagged Management IP Mode: Specified as Static IP Address or Obtain IP Address via DHCP Ethernet Mode: Specified as Autonegotiate or Fixed Ethernet Rate: Need only be configured if Ethernet Mode is set to Fixed, specified as 10M or 100M. Ethernet Duplex: Need only be configured if Ethernet Mode is set to Fixed, specified as Full or Half.  SNMP configuration information. This will allow events from the BS to arrive at the specified Netspan server. This will include the following information: Read Only Community: This should be specified to the same value as in Netpans Discovery Parameters (found under Server on Netspans left hand panel).
HiperMAX Masthead Equipment Installation Guide Page 42 Commercial in Confidence UGD-D00093 Rev A.1 Read Write Community: This should be specified to the same value as in Netpans Discovery Parameters (found under "Server" on Netspans left hand panel). SNMP Port Number: This should be specified to the same value as in Netpans Discovery Parameters (found under "Server" on Netspans left hand panel). IP Address: This specifies Netspans IP address (found under Server Global Configuration, which is under Server on Netspans left hand panel). Community: Normally specified to the same value as for Read Only Community. Port Number: Normally specified to a value of 9023.  Whether the Primary Master blade or the Secondary Master blade manages the GPS module.  NTP configuration. This specifies a list of NTP servers. 9.2 Secure Fibre-optic Cable The Milli-Tie can be used to secure cables in the same manner as normally used for nylon straps. The steps below show the basic use of the product. Over-tightening of cable ties may causes damage and degrade system performance. To secure fibre-optic cables, perform the following steps: 1. Place the Millie-Tie around the target, and thread the tongue through the last large aperture in the rearmost cell. Figure 26 – HiperMAX secure fibre-optic cable, place tie 2. Pull or slide the Millie-Tie onto the target. Note that the Millie Tie stretches to cushion the installation.
HiperMAX Masthead Equipment Installation Guide Page 43 Commercial in Confidence UGD-D00093 Rev A.1 Figure 27 – HiperMAX secure fibre-optic cable, pull tie 3. Release the tension when snug, then cut and remove any excess strip. Always cut through the square sections, not the wider cells. Figure 28 – HiperMAX secure fibre-optic cable, snug tie Millie-Tie is efficient, and simply gets a little shorter after each use. The remaining strip can be kept and reused. Figure 29 – HiperMAX secure fibre-optic cable, cut excess tie 4. Repeat these steps for each use.
