1.3. Property Damage Warnings
1. Attention: Due to power dissipation, the Extension Unit may reach a very high
temperature. Do not operate this equipment on or close to flammable materials.
Use caution when servicing the unit.
2. Attention: Only authorized and trained personnel are allowed to open the unit
and get access to the inside.
3. Notice: Although the Extension Unit is internally protected against overvoltage, it
is strongly recommended to ground (earth) the antenna cables close to the
repeater’s antenna connectors for protection against atmospheric discharge.
4. Notice: ESD precautions must be observed. Before commencing maintenance
work, use the available grounding (earthing) system to connect ESD protection
measures.
5. Notice: Only suitably qualified personnel are allowed to work on this unit and only
after becoming familiar with all safety notices, installation, operation and
maintenance procedures contained in this manual.
6. Notice: Keep operating instructions within easy reach and make them available

1. General
8. Notice: Only license holders for the respective frequency range are allowed to
operate this unit.
9. Notice: Make sure the repeater settings are correct for the intended use (refer to
the manufacturer product information) and regulatory requirements are met. Do
not carry out any modifications or fit any spare parts, which are not sold or
recommended by the manufacturer.
1.4. Compliance
1. Notice: For installations which have to comply with European EN50385 exposure
compliance requirements, the following Power Density limits/guidelines (mW/cm²)
according to ICNIRP are valid:
0.2 for frequencies from 10 MHz to 400 MHz
F (MHz) / 2000 for frequencies from 400 MHz to 2 GHz
1 for frequencies from 2 GHz to 300 GHz
2. Notice: For installations, which have to comply with FCC RF exposure
requirements, the antenna selection and installation must be completed in a way
to ensure compliance with those FCC requirements. Depending on the RF
frequency, rated output power, antenna gain, and the loss between the repeater
and antenna, the minimum distance D to be maintained between the antenna
location and human beings is calculated according to this formula:
D[ cm ] =
P[ mW ]
4 ∗ π ∗ PD[ mW / cm 2 ]
where
•
P (mW) is the radiated power at the antenna, i.e. the max. rated repeater
output power in addition to the antenna gain minus the loss between the
repeater and the antenna.
•
PD (mW/cm²) is the allowed Power Density limit acc. to 47 CFR 1.1310 (B)
for general population / uncontrolled exposures which is
o F (MHz) / 1500 for frequencies from 300MHz to 1500MHz
o 1 for frequencies from 1500MHz to 100,000MHz
RF exposure compliance may need to be addressed at the time of licensing, as
required by the responsible FCC Bureau(s), including antenna co-location
requirements of 1.1307(b)(3).
3. Notice: Installation of this equipment is in full responsibility of the installer, who
has also the responsibility, that cables and couplers are calculated into the
maximum gain of the antennas, so that this value, which is filed in the FCC Grant
and can be requested from the FCC data base, is not exceeded. The industrial
boosters are shipped only as a naked booster without any installation devices or
antennas as it needs for professional installation.

2. Introduction
2. Introduction
2.1. Purpose
Mobile telephone and public safety systems transmit signals in two directions
between base transceiver station (BTS) and mobile stations (MS) within the signal
coverage area to carry voice and data traffic.
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 distributed antenna
system (DAS).
Office buildings, sports arenas, college campuses, industrial parks, and other areas
of high demand require the specialized capacity boost that an optical DAS can
provide to meet increasing customer demands for voice and data.
An optical DAS contains optical Master Units and a sufficient number of Remote
Units to provide the necessary coverage. The number of the Remote Units depends
on the coverage requirements of the DAS. Extension Units can be connected to
Remote Units to provide coverage for further bands. The Remote Units are
connected to the Master Unit with optical links.
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.
2.2. ION-U High Power Remote and Extension Units
The ION-U is an optical fiber based DAS system that efficiently takes the outputs of
multiple Base Transceiver Stations (BTS) sectors and converts those RF signals to
optical to send them over fiber optic cables to Remote Units to provide coverage in
indoor and outdoor locations. The system supports both low power and high power
Remote Units and SISO and MIMO operation.
The ION-U EU H 7P/80-85P/17P/19P is a multi-band, multi-operator Extension Unit
used in conjunction with a Remote Unit in the ION optical distribution system. This
system transports up to five frequency bands simultaneously (700 MHz, 800/850
MHz, and 1900 MHz), providing a cost-effective solution for distributing capacity from
one or more base stations.
It has been specifically tested and optimized for GMSK, EDGE, CDMA, UMTS,
HSPA+, LTE, and OFDM modulations. Furthermore it is provisioned for future
modulation scheme evolutions.
These Remote and Extension Units feature independent downlink and uplink gain
adjustments and an integrated channel power detector for in-band spectrum and PIM
analysis and end-to-end auto leveling.

5. Alarms
5. Alarms
5.1. Bite and Alarms
The Built-In Test concept comprises the monitoring of the power supplies, the power
amplifiers, and fan units.
All occurring alarms can be checked via software at the Master Unit.
As soon as the software acknowledges a valid alarm, a message is transmitted to the
Master Unit.
If the reason for the alarm has been cleared or if the alarm should continue, a new
alarm message will not be repeated. If there was an interruption of at least five
seconds after acknowledgement, a new alarm message will be generated.
5.2. Troubleshooting
The status of the Extension Unit can be checked via the Master Unit (for details
please refer to the ION-U Site Manager software manual). Locally, the status can be
checked at the LED.
5.3. Status LED Alarms
For local supervision, a status LED on the connector flange of the Extension Unit
provides a visual indication of possible reasons for alarms. The color of the LED
indicates the severity of the alarm. Detailed alarm information is available through the
ION-U software interface.

6.1. General
Read and observe the notices in chapter 1.2 Health and Safety.
Caution: Rotating fans. Risk of injury in operation. Wear tight-fitting clothes and
disconnect mains before connecting or replacing or cleaning the fan unit.
Caution: The unit reaches high temperature in operation. Risk of burns by hot
surface. Do not touch the unit before it has sufficiently cooled down.
F Note:
F Note:
The Extension Unit does not require preventative maintenance measures.
We recommend checking the cleanliness of the unit and in particular of
the heat sink / fan(s) at appropriate intervals depending on the degree of
dust and dirt at the installation site. If necessary, any dusty or dirty areas /
parts should be cleaned at regular intervals, which also depend on the
degree of dust and dirt at the installation site.
Maintenance of the ION-U High Power EUs should be performed by replacing only
components that are described in this chapter. In order to maintain the warranty,
avoid unintentional damage to the seals on the modules.
The spare parts list, (see chapter 7.3) includes only units that can be replaced in the
field without tuning or soldering work.
F Note:
When sending back the unit, use appropriate packaging. Use of the
original packaging for shipping the unit is strongly recommended.
F Note:
Defective parts should only be replaced by original parts from the
supplier. All service work performed inside the housing is performed at
the users own risk.
F Note:
Ensure the Extension Unit has been disconnected from mains power
during maintenance.
F Note:
Label any unlabelled cables before disconnecting them to ensure
correct reconnection.
For most maintenance procedures, appropriate tools are required to ensure correct
handling. All of these tools can be ordered from the supplier.
F Note:
All Extension Unit screws have a right-hand thread, and are tightened
by turning the screws clockwise and loosened by turning them counterclockwise with an appropriate tool.
Due to the design of the Extension Unit, the fan unit is the only component that
should be replaced in the field. Please contact the supplier for replacement of any
other components.
