3 Installation of the Base Station
3.1 Equipment delivery
When you receive the equipment in its packaging:
check the condition of the packaging,
if damaged, make your reservations known to the carrier without delay.
3.1.1 Labels on the equipment and the packaging
Figures given on the examples below are not contractual.
The RBS labels are affixed to the packaging and to the equipment to indicate its contents.
Figure 4 Example of a label for the RBS unit
The DBS labels are fixed to the packaging to indicate its contents on leaving the factory.These labels
are not affixed to the equipment because the DBS configuration changes in accordance with the site
modifications

3.2 Installing the equipment
3.2.1 Information required for installation
Appendix 1 – Installation sheet contains a sheet for you to complete, that compiles all the general
information needed for the installation procedure.
3.2.2 Precautions
Installation is designed to meet all requirements concerning electromagnetic compatibility and safety.
The performance of the equipment depends on installation practices (cable installation, ground
connections, etc.) which should be based on best trade practices and which may be degraded if theses
pratices are not respected.
3.2.3 Tools required
The installation team must possess a standard installation toolkit (containing, in particular: drill, drill bits,
soldering iron, cable tie pliers, terminal pliers).
The list of tools required for the mechanical installation of the equipment is given below:
For installation and alignment procedure for an RBS 7390 with a sector antenna, refer to the User
Manual 3CC12087Axxx.
Tool Use
No. 6 Allen wrench (for 8 mm
screw) Antenna alignment
16/17 mm box wrench and flat
wrench Used for pole mounting and for fine adjustment of the
antenna and various tightening operations
16/17 mm Torque wrench Used for pole mounting and various tightening operations
20 mm flat wrench For attaching the "N" coaxial connectors
Compax "Mars Actel OSA3" inser-
tion and extraction tool Wiring the COMPAX (mars actel cad) terminal strips
Essential compass and inclinome-
ter (not supplied) Pointing the antenna
5 mm Allen key (for M6 screw) For mounting the antenna
10 mm flat wrench For fixing the ground terminal
8 mm Allen key (for M10 screw) For tightening the different parts of the pole mounting
Complete antenna pointing tool kit

Depending on the installations, additional equipment, provided by Alcatel as optional, may prove useful:
To get the commercial codes of these items, please consult Appendix 5 Correspondence between
commercial codes and industrial codes relating to the BS which gives the connection between industrial
and commercial codes.
3.3 Installation of outdoor equipment
Considerations
Outdoor equipment installation involves:
installation of the mechanical system (also called "pole mounting" system) which supports the
RBS and facilitates antenna alignment,
installation of the RBS assembly and its antenna,
installation of the connection cable connecting the RBS to the DBS rack.
Outdoor equipment installation should guarantee a precise and fixed antenna pointing.
The RBS location and its antenna orientation should arise from a planning analysis in order to op-
timize the sector coverage. These elements must be imperatively known with precision by the ins-
tallation staff.
Antenna orientation is carried out according to geometric criterion (using compass and inclinome-
ter).
All the outdoor equipment assemblies are designed for installation without any particular protec-
tion. However, the following recommendations must be respected:
make sure that the reception metallic structure has a perfect stability,
do not install the equipment below bird nesting areas,
do not attach the equipment to chimneys which give off fat deposits, dust and other aerosols
which are liable to be deposited on the equipment,
do not install the equipment in proximity to sources of heat,
do not place the equipment in proximity to corrosive gas outputs,
do not place the equipment below roof run-offs not equipped with guttering (high risk of micro-
wave short-circuit),
do not attach the equipment to a structure prone to vibrations,
do not cross the antenna field.
Two types of installation are possible:
1. installation on a tube or pole, using threaded U-bolts and nuts.
Note: the tube selected should be sufficiently rigid to resist vibrations that may give rise to antenna
misalignment.
2. wall mounting: direct or with mounting plate: see Figure 63 Direct wall mounting and Figure 64
Wall mounting option with mounting plate 9900UXI101 in Appendix A.7.
