dBm) high power remote outdoor coverage solution for Corning MobileAccess Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS). MobileAccessGX-Quad is a fiber-fed, multi-frequency, multi-operator remote designed to complement the MobileAccess1000 and MobileAccess2000 lower power, standard remotes. GX can also be installed as a dedicated solution for new sites, providing complete RF coverage options for open indoor, tunnel and adjacent outdoor spaces. Using low loss fiber optic cabling, GX-Quad remote units can distribute multiple BTS signal sources for CELL/PCS/700LTE or AWS to multiple remote locations between 2 to 15 km from the head end to remotes. GX efficiently supports all operator modulations with linear MCPA (multi-carrier power amplifier) up to 40 W. MobileAccessGX-Quad remotes share a common equipment head end and Element Management System (EMS) with other remotes on the MobileAccess1000/2000 platform. GX-Quad remotes offer high RF power coverage capabilities with compact design for added spaces savings and weather resistant enclosures to fit various site needs. MobileAccessGX-Quad Figure 1-1 Introduction P/N 709C010701 Page 12 1.1 Key Features and Capabilities Multi-Frequency/Multi-Service RF Transport Platform: Accommodates GSM, UMTS, HSPA, LTE, EDGE, EV-DO, and more. Three model-dependent bands per enclosure. Cost-Effective Higher Power: Optimizes and reduces the number of antennas required to cover open and outdoor areas by offering 46dBm (GX-40 W) composite power per frequency band. Operator-Grade Operation: operator-grade performance. Unique, space-saving non-obtrusive design: Blends into the environment and avoids costly tower builds outdoors when covering campus scenarios, parking lots, tunnels and indoor-adjacent outdoor space. Designed to withstand harsh environments - Fully sealed Remote Unit (RU) enclosure ensures superior performance in harsh environments and worry-free electronics maintenance. Compliant to IP65/NEMA standard. Management and control – alarm forward to NOC or standard EMS via SNMP, software controlled output power and Optical link auto gain control Advanced signal handling and management ensures 1.2 System Architecture MobileAccessGX-Quad provides a complete solution consisting of GX-Quad remote units at the remote locations, and head end elements, which are shared with any existing or new MA1000/MA2000 deployment. MobileAccessGX-Quad Remote Unit consists of a uniquely designed, non-obtrusive unit that includes all of the required RF, F/O and power interfaces. All mobile services are distributed through service/band dedicated RF connection ports over antennas installed at the remote locations. The following figure illustrates a scenario in which MobileAccessGX-Quad is installed alongside MobileAccess2000 remotes and MobileAccessHX remotes. Note that all site elements are managed and controlled via a single SC-450 Controller. All site elements (in this scenario example), are controlled and managed by the SC-450 Controller that enables local and remote management, and provides single-source, centralized „common head end‟ controls of MA1000, MA2000, HX and GX-Quad elements. In the downlink, at the head end, the BTS or BDA signal is conditioned by the RIU, ensuring a constant RF level. The conditioned signal is then converted by the OCH-GX (GX Optical Central Hub) to an optical signal for transport over single mode to the GX remote units, which are located at the remote locations. In the uplink, the process is reversed. The SC-450 Controller enables local and remote management, as well as controls all GX-Quad, MA1000 and MA2000 elements from a single, centralized location. Introduction P/N 709C010701 Page 13 GX Architecture Diagram Figure 1-2 NOTE: When MobileAccessGX-Quad unit is deployed with units supporting the 800MHz band, an external filter is needed to be installed on the GX-Quad to avoid the disturbance between the 800MHz DL and the 850MHz UL frequencies. Introduction P/N 709C010701 Page 14 1.2.1 Signal Path On the DL, combined RF signals (from up to four supported services) from the Radio Interface Unit (RIU) are converted into optical signals by the Optical Control Hub (OCH). The optical signals are then transmitted to the GX at the remote site via optical fiber. The signals are filtered and amplified at the GX and transmitted through the service specific output ports to the broadband antennas. On the UL, GX converts the RF signals transmitted from the service antennas into optical signals. The signals are transmitted via optical fiber to the OCH-GX which then converts the optical signals back to RF signals. The optical DL and UL signal are transmitted in a single optical fiber based on the WDM technology. GX Functional Block Diagram Figure 1-3 1.3 System Monitoring and Management The MobileAccessGX-Quad Remote Unit is centrally managed via the MobileAccess SC-450 Controller. NOTE: The GX-Quad solution is supported by SC-450 v5.4 and higher. MobileAccessGX-Quad is not connected directly to the controller; it is connected to the OCH-GX element (that is connected to the controller). Thus, the controller monitors views and manages the GX-Quad via the OCH-GX, hosting the GX unit. The following shows the Config(uration) tab of the selected GX unit. The system configuration and management is described in the SC-450 UM (v5.4 and higher). Introduction P/N 709C010701 Page 15 Example of GX Configuration Tab Figure 1-4 Introduction P/N 709C010701 Page 16 1.4 GX-Quad Unit Interfaces All of the GX interfaces (except for the power connector) are located externally on the underside of the unit (facing down when unit is mounted). The unit interfaces include the RF, power, optical link and external alarms connections. The power connector is located in a separate side panel.

LED Descriptions Introduction P/N 709C010701 Page 18 2 Installation Guidelines This chapter provides the general guidelines for installing the MobileAccessGX-Quad Remote Unit and includes information such as site considerations and installation requirements. 2.1 Site Considerations The distance between the GX-Quad service antenna and the coverage area should correspond to LOS (Line of Sight) requirements for maximum coverage area. The maximum fiber path loss is 6dB. The system delay of the optical system must be taken into consideration when there are neighboring BTS sites overlapping in coverage. When the GX-Quad remote unit is deployed with units supporting the 800MHz band, an external filter is needed to be installed on the GX-Quad to avoid the disturbance between the 800MHz DL and the 850MHz UL frequencies. See section 3.1. In the MIMO scenario, two remote units shall use a pair of optic fiber for each one. This ensures to avoid the system delay difference between two units. 2.1.1 Installation Location Mounting surface shall be capable of supporting the weight of the equipment. In order to avoid electromagnetic interference, a proper mounting location must be selected to minimize interference from electromagnetic sources such as large electrical equipment. 2.1.2 Environmental Humidity has an adverse effect on the reliability of the equipment. It is recommended to install the equipment in locations having stable temperature and unrestricted air-flow. The installation location for the system should be well ventilated. The equipment has been designed to operate at the temperature range and humidity level as stated in the product specifications at temperatures ranging from -40~70 C and a relative humidity of max. 95%. 2.1.3 Powering The power supply unit (PSU) provides power to all modules within the equipment. Depending on the product variant, it is recommended that the PSU operates on a dedicated AC circuit breaker or fused circuit. 2.1.4 Grounding Requirement Verify that the equipment has been well grounded. This includes GX unit, external combiner, antennas and all cables connected to the system. Ensure lightning protection for the antennas is properly grounded. Installation Guidelines P/N 709C010701 Page 19 2.1.5 Cable Routing Ensure all cables, e.g. power cable, feeder cable, optic fiber, commissioning cable, connecting are properly routed (use drip-loops) and secured so that they are not damaged. 2.1.6 Manual Handling During transportation and installation, take necessary handling precautions to avoid potential physical injury to the installation personnel and the equipment. 2.2 Installation Requirements Working space available for installation and maintenance for each mounting arrangement. Ensure unrestricted airflow. Ensure grounding connector is within reach of the ground wire. Ensure a power source is within reach of the power cord and the power source has sufficient capacity. Where appropriate, ensure unused RF connectors are terminated. Do not locate the equipment near large transformers or motors that may cause electromagnetic interference. Reduce signal loss in feeder cable by minimizing the length and number of RF connections. Ensure the equipment will be operated within the stated environment (refer to datasheet). Where appropriate, confirm available of suitably terminated grade of RF and optical fiber. Observe handling of all cables to prevent damage. Installation Guidelines P/N 709C010701 Page 20 2.3 Fiber Optic Rules ATTENTION! Please also refer to the Laser Safety section in the document Preface. Fiber optic cables require proper handling. Do not stretch, puncture, or crush the fiber cable(s) with staples, heavy equipment, doors, etc. Always maintain the minimum bending radius specified by the cable manufacturer. The minimum bend radius is usually 10 times the cable's outer diameter. In the case of single optical fiber that is not in a cable, the minimum bending radius to be observed is 30mm. WDM, Wave Division Multiplexing, units require SMF Use minimum splicing/connectors to achieve minimum losses on the fibers. Use precaution while installing, bending, or connecting fiber optic cables. Use an optical power meter and OTDR for checking the fiber optic cables. Make sure the environment is clean while connecting/splicing fiber optic cables. All fiber optic connections should be cleaned prior to attaching to termination points using a dry cleaning device (i.e. Cletop or equivalent). Fiber connector protective caps should be installed on all non-terminated fibers and removed just before they are terminated. Check the Fiber Optic connections. Installation Guidelines P/N 709C010701 Page 21 3 System Installation This chapter describes the installation procedure for the MobileAccessGX-Quad Remote Units. The installation of the system components must be in the following order: 1.
