Remote Unit ION™-M17/17P/17P
2. INTRODUCTION
2.1. PURPOSE
Cellular telephone systems transmit signals in two directions between base
transceiver station (BTS) and mobile stations (MS) within the signal coverage area.
If weak signal transmissions occur within the coverage area because of indoor
applications, topological conditions or distance from the transmitter, extension of the
transmission range can be achieved by means of an optical distribution system.
Such a system contains an optical Master Unit and several Remote Units. The
number of the Remote Units depends on the hardware and software configuration.
The Remote Units are connected to the Master Unit with optical links. The optical
loss must be less than 10 dB inclusive optical couplers or splitters.
The Master Unit is the connection to the base transceiver stations. The configuration
of a Master Unit depends on the number of the Remote Units and the frequency
range.
WDM (Wave Division Multiplex) filters are integrated in the optical modules. For the
UL, a wavelength within 1540 nm – 1562 nm is used. For the DL, a wavelength of
1310 ±20 nm is used. The maximum output power for the UL and DL is 5.7 mW.
2.2.
ION-M17P/17P/17P
Andrew Solutions ION-M17P/17P/17P is a 3 sector single-box remote unit. It is used
in conjunction with a master unit in the ION optical distribution system. This system
transports 3 sectors (3 x 1700/2100 MHz) simultaneously, providing a cost-effective
solution for distributing capacity from one or more base stations.
The ION-M17P/17P/17P transports signals on the RF layer in a very inexpensive
manner. This means that multiple operators and multiple technologies are moved
simultaneously from a cluster of base stations to a remote location over the same
fibre.
The ION optical distribution system is a cost-effective coverage solution for dense
urban areas, airports, high-rise buildings and other locations where physical
structures increase path loss or provide limited space for installation. It has been
specifically designed to reduce zoning problems and to provide homogeneous
coverage. The compact, mechanical design is specifically architected to mount inside
of or on poles and along side structures in such a way that it has a minimal visual
impact.
The ION-M platform has been specifically tested and optimized for CDMA2000.
Furthermore, it is provisioned for future improvements to the modulation and
frequency bands.
Page 12
M0143AWA_uc.doc
2 Introduction
The ION is easily set-up and supervised via a graphical user interface (GUI). Remote
units can be commissioned through the use of built-in test equipment. An autolevelling function compensates for the optical link loss making installation easy and
quick.
The entire system may be monitored remotely via an Andrew OMC. This is a
comprehensive management platform with SNMP protocol and X.733 standard
implemented. Should a sophisticated interface not be required, the master unit can
be directly connected to the alarm interface of a base station via relay alarming.

4.2. ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
4.2.1. General
Read the health and safety warnings in chapter 1.2.
1. This unit contains dangerous voltages. Loss of life, severe personal injury or
property damage can be the result if the instructions contained in this manual are
not followed.
2. It is compulsory to ground the unit before connecting power supply. A grounding
bolt is provided on the cabinet to connect the ground-bonding cable.
3. Although the Remote Unit is internally protected against overvoltage, it is strongly
recommended to earth the antenna cables close to the antenna connectors of the
Remote Unit for protection against atmospheric discharge. In areas with strong
lightning it is strongly recommended to insert additional lightning protection.
4. If the mains connector of the Remote Unit is not easily accessible, a disconnect
device in the mains circuit must be provided within easy reach.
5. Before connecting or disconnecting the mains connector at the Remote Unit,
ensure that mains supply is disconnected.
6. Make sure that an appropriate circuit breaker and an overcurrent limiting device
are connected between mains and Remote Unit.
7. A connection of mains supply to a power socket requires the power socket to be
nearby the Remote Unit.
8. Incorrectly wired connections can destroy electrical and electronic components.
9. To avoid corrosion at the connectors caused by electrochemical processes, the
material of the cable connectors must not cause a higher potential difference than
0.6 V (see electrochemical contact series).
10. It is sufficient to tighten the N-antenna connector hand-screwed. Any use of a tool
(e.g. pair of pliers) might cause damage to the connector and thus lead to
malfunctioning of the Remote Unit.
11. For unstabilized electric networks which frequently generate spikes, it is advised
to use a voltage limiting device.
12. The unit complies with the surge requirement according to EN 61000-4-5 (fine
protection); however, it is recommended to install an additional medium (via local
supply connection) and/or coarse protection (external surge protection) depending
on the individual application in order to avoid damage caused by overcurrent.
13. Observe the labels on the front panels before connecting or disconnecting any
cables.

4.2.4. Connection of the Antenna Cables
The remote unit has N-type antenna connectors. For its location please refer to
chapter 4.2.2 Connections. For mounting the cable connectors, it is recommended to
refer to the corresponding documentation of the connector manufacturer. The
bending radius of the antenna cables must remain within the given specifications.
For the selection of cable and antenna it should be considered that, on the one hand,
a cable with higher loss is less expensive but, on the other hand, it impairs
performance.
It is sufficient to tighten the N-type antenna connectors hand-tight. The use of
a tool (like pliers) may cause damage to the connector and, therefore, lead to
a malfunctioning of the remote unit.
Page 27
User’s Manual for
Remote Unit ION™-M17/17P/17P
4.2.5. Power Connection
Before connecting electrical power to the units, the system must be grounded as
described in the previous chapter.
Mains power must be connected at the mains connector of the unit (see chapter
4.2.2 Connections).
The power supply plug is part of the delivery. The correct wiring of the power supply
plug is as follows:
figure 4-9 AC mains plug
For the AC power supply connection, a minimum cross section of
1.5 mm2 is required. Each wire must observe the applicable national
regulations regarding loop impedance, voltage drop, and methods of
installation. Make sure to connect the correct voltage to the unit.
) Note:
Do not connect or disconnect the power cord at the mains connector
while power is on. Turn off mains * power before connecting the
power cord at the remote unit, then, engage mains again.
* Mains power must be interruptible with an external mains breaker. For the mains
breaker, observe the following recommendation:
120 Volt / 20 Amp max. or 240 Volt / 16 Amp, single-phase, 50 / 60 Hz AC service is
needed, i.e. the external AC breaker should be 20 Amps max. for 120-Volt service or
16 Amps for 240-Volt service.

4.3. OPTICAL-FIBRE-CABLE CONNECTION - RULES
Optical signals are transmitted by use of optical fibres. When connecting these fibres
observe the following instructions.
) Note:
Care should be taken when connecting and disconnecting fibreoptic cables. Scratches and dust significantly affect system
performance and may permanently damage the connector. Always
use protective caps on fibre-optic connectors not in use.
In general, optical fibres do not need special protective measures. However,
protection against environmental influences e.g. rodents and humidity must be
considered.
The optical fibre is a single mode fibre. Type is E9/125 µm with the following
minimum requirements:
Attenuation: <0.36 dB / km @ 1310 nm
Dispersion: <3.5 ps / nm km @ 1310 nm
<0.26 dB / km @ 1550 nm
<18.0 ps / nm km @ 1550 nm
The specified bending radius of the optical fibres must not be exceeded. The pigtails
for the connection between master unit and remote unit must have a sufficient length.
A protection for the feeding into units must be given. The system attenuation of the
optical fibres, including the connectors, must not exceed 10 dB.
System attenuation and attenuation of optical components must be determined. This
can be achieved by measuring attenuation and reflection with an appropriate
measuring instrument. For pigtails, a total value of < 0.4 dB (measured to a reference
plug) can be assumed due to the dead zone of the reflectometer. These
measurements must be made with a sufficient length of optical fibre, at the input and
output of the device which has to be measured.
Fibre-cable connectors have to be of the same type (E2000APC8°) as the
connectors used for the unit. The fibre-optic cables are connected to the optical
transceiver.
Angled connectors are not compatible with straight optical connectors;
non-compatibility of connectors will result in permanent damage to
both connectors.
Before connecting the fibre cables, follow the procedure below to ensure optimized
performance. It is important for these procedures to be carried out with care:
Page 29
User’s Manual for
Remote Unit ION™-M17/17P/17P
¾
Remove fibre-optic protective caps.
¾
Do not bend the fibre-optic cable in a tight radius (< 4 cm) as this may cause
cable damage and interrupt transmission.
¾
Using high-grade alcohol and lint-free cotton cleaning swabs, clean the end of
the fibre-optic cable that will be inserted in the optical connectors on the donor
interface box.
¾
Blow out the laser receptacle with clean and dry compressed air to remove
any particulate matter.
¾
Connect the fibre-optic cables by inserting the cable end into the laser
receptacle and aligning the key (on the cable end) with the keyed slot.
¾
Do not use any index-matching gels or fluids of any kind in these connectors.
Gels are intended for laboratory use and attract dirt in the field.

The alarm outputs (open collector output 5 V / 1 mA) are normally low. In case of an
alarm they are high active (5 V). They can be used to monitor alarms with an external
alarm indicator.
The +28 V pin (for its location see figure 5-2 Flange connector, 7 poles) is protected
by a 500 mA thermoswitch. In case of exceeding this current between pin 7 and GND
and/or in case of a failure of the VSWR module, the thermoswitch turns into a highresistive status. In this case no fuse needs to be replaced. Just wait a few minutes
until the thermoswitch reaches the normal operating temperature again.
) Note:
The manufacturer / supplier of this system accepts no liability for
damage caused by equipment connected to external outputs or by
effects from such equipment.
As accessory equipment the alarm kit (see chapter 7.3 Spare Parts) is available to
connect external devices to the external alarm inputs and outputs..
Page 40
M0143AWA_uc.doc
5 Alarms
With the external alarm inputs it is possible to monitor the status of connected
devices, e.g. a UPS, via software. All alarm inputs are normally high (5 V) without
connection. The polarity (high/ low) can be set via the software at the Master Unit (for
details please see according software manual).
The device to be monitored must be connected so that the alarm contacts will be
closed in case of an alarm (I max = 8 mA). The alarm inputs are potential-free with
