1.1 About MobileAccess™ 1000
MobileAccess™ 1000 converged wireless networks solution provides scalable in-building
coverage for multiple wireless data and voice services through a single coax and broadband
antenna infrastructure.
The solution is based on combining a number of services, both voice and data, at each covered
location and distributing them through a common antenna infrastructure.
NOTE: MobileAccess is in the process of transition to 1000M products that will support both
singlemode fiber and multimode fiber. The new Base Unit is designated by WBM (Wide Band M)
and the new RHUs will be indicated by 1000M RHUs,
where the suffix “M” indicates that the
product will support both single mode and multimode fiber usage.
The new products have the
same packaging and performance and are fully backward compatible. See
3.3.2, Fiber Optic
Rules for details on multimode fiber use.
Voice services are transmitted between the BTS side and the locations via optic fiber after the
appropriate conversion from RF to optic, and reconverted to RF at each end. The MA 1000
system provides entry level solutions that can be upgraded
using the same infrastructure
to
support additional services as required.
Wireless 802.11/a/b/g coverage may be integrated into the MA 1000 system using the MA
850/860 remote module (that supports wireless LAN service distribution).
To optimize system coverage under changing environmental conditions or load, as well as to
enable remote monitoring of all system elements from a central location, MobileAccess provides
the following MA 1000 system enhancement solutions:
• Manageable BTS interface devices that control the level of the BTS signal fed into the
system (Radio Interface Unit)
• Network Management System (NMS) consisting of controllers, adjustment and
management software
1.1.1 Features
• Support for all current and future technologies such as TDMA, CDMA, WCDMA and GSM,
and services such as PCS/CELLULAR, Paging, iDEN and 802.11 (a/b/g) Wireless LAN
• All services are distributed through a
single
coax and antenna infrastructure
• All active components are located in the communication closet/room
• Modular, scalable and future-safe – additional remote units can
easily
be installed
• Support for remote monitoring through MA 410/430 controllers
• Eliminates RF interferences occurring where multiple antenna systems are used to serve
multiple services
MA 1000M Installation and Configuration Guide

Introduction to the MA 1000 System
• Enables fast deployment for corporate enterprises, property owners and WSP’s of new
services
• Reduces tenant disruption
• Low power required by the system eliminates the need for high power BTS/RBS, reducing
operator expenses
• Provides both local and remote monitoring and control capabilities
• Software programmable parameters including output power, AGC (on/off and levels),
and system gain
• Real time component setting capabilities for optimal performance (aging, temperature,
optical connectors, etc.,)
1.2 System Architecture
The MA 1000 solution is based on the following main elements:
• MA Base Units (BUs) – The BUs perform RF to optic conversion on the BTS side.
• MA Remote Hub Units (RHUs) 1000 – The MA 1000 performs the RF to optic signal
conversion at the antenna side for up to two services corresponding to the RHU model. A
third service can be added by connecting an add-on remote hub unit (MA 1200) to the RHU
1000.
• MA 850 – The MA 850 is a wireless LAN module that provides secure and centralized
connections for 802.11a/b/g Access Points and distributes the wireless services over the
same coax and broadband infrastructure as the voice services.
MA 1000M Installation and Configuration Guide 2
Introduction to the MA 1000 System
All services are combined and distributed through the same antenna broadband infrastructure.
To provide optimum coverage at all times and monitoring and control of all system elements from
a central location MA provides the following devices:
• MA Radio Interface Units (RIUs) – The RIUs provide interfaces for up to three
BTS/BDA signals, and automatically adjusts the output signal in response to input signal
level in order to provide optimal coverage.
• MA 410/430 controllers – The controllers enable remote monitoring of the system
elements from a
single location
via advanced intuitive GUI.

This chapter describes the MA1000 system basic elements: MA remote modules (MA 100 RHU
and MA1200 Add-on) and the Base Units. Your system may include additional elements such as
MA 410/430 controllers, MA RIUs and MA850 or MA860 units; these are described in the
corresponding User Guides.
2.1 Remote Modules
The Optical to RF conversion of each service at the individual building floors is performed by
remote units corresponding to the service types. These consist of MA 1000 RHUs and in addition,
may include MA 1200 add on modules and MA 850 modules.
The configurations depend on the requirements of the site and the supported services. The
following sections describe each of the system elements.
NOTE: The connections as they relate to the MA 1000 system are described in Chapter
4 -
System Installation.
2.1.1 MA 1000 RHUs
Each RHU supports two different services (one high-band and one low-band). All RHUs are add-
on ready, meaning that their optic interface and control functionality can support a third (high-
power) service through the connections of a MA 1200 Add-on module (see section 2.1.2).
Each RHU 1000 is connected to the corresponding BU (located in the communication room)
through a fiber optic connection. Remote monitoring is provided through the BU connections to
the MA 410/430 controller ( 1.4).
The RHU 1000 services, MA 1200 add-on service and data services (provided by MA 860) at each
location are combined and then transmitted over a common infrastructure to strategically placed
antennas.

The RHU 1000 front panel contains the fiber optic connections to the BU, four coax connections
to the antennas, power connections and status indicators.
If RHU 1000 and MA 1200 add-on units are installed, then the combined services are fed to the
coax infrastructure through the
RHU 1000 antenna ports
. However, if MA 850/860 is also
installed, the combined
data and voice
services are fed to the coax infrastructure through the
MA
850/860 antenna ports
.
NOTE: To provide alarms, the antenna must supply a DC resistance of up to 5K ohms.

2.2 MA Base Units
The BUs (Base Units) perform RF to optical conversion of the signal on the BTS/BDA side. Each
can support up to two services (provided by the same operator). Two models of MA BUs are
available: four-port unit – supporting four RHUs, and eight-port unit supporting up to eight RHUs.
The RHU models correspond to the services supplied through the BUs.
The BU (and all the corresponding remote units) may be remotely monitored and managed via
the MA NMS (Network Management System).
The BUs are usually installed in the telecom room adjacent to the BTS/BDA signal source. RF
ports on the rear panel provide interface to the BTS side (through connection to RIU or passive
interface), while optic ports on the front panel provide interface to the RHUs (Remote Units). This
following sections describe the MA BU front and rear panels, including indicators and connectors.

3.1 Infrastructure Preparation
This following installation rules are based on the assumption that site survey and installation
planning (
including power requirements
) have been completed.
3.2 Installation Requirements
The infrastructure preparation consists of two main phases:
A. Floor Planning: Planning the distribution of the antennas on each floor to provide the
required coverage.
B. Telecom Closet Planning: Planning the layout of the devices and cables in the telecom
closet or shaft. This includes the MA 850, 802.11 Access Points, cabling and other voice
service distribution systems that are relevant to the specific installation.
3.3 Coaxial Cable Connections
3.3.1 General Cable Installation Procedures
Observe the general cable installation procedures that meet with the building codes in your area.
The building code requires that all cabling be installed above ceiling level (where applicable).
Each length of cable from the risers to each antenna must be concealed above ceiling.
The cable must be properly supported and maintained straight using tie-wraps, cable trays and
clamps or hangers every 10 feet (where practical above ceiling level). Where this is not practical,
the following should be observed:
• The minimum bending radius of the supplied ½” coax cable should be 7”.
• Cable that is kinked or has a bending radius smaller than 7” must be replaced.
• Cable runs that span less than two floors should be secured to suitably located
mechanical structures.
• The cables should be supported only from the building structure.
MA 1000M Installation and Configuration Guide 14
Site Preparation
3.3.2 Fiber Optic Rules
• Either single mode or multimode fiber can be used with MobileAccess 1000M products,
while MobileAccess 1000 products can only be used with single mode fiber.
• Only Multimode fiber, 50/125 or 62.5/125um complying with ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B series,
EN50173-1 or ISO/IEC 11801 can be used. The fiber length can be up to 300 meters
assuming the following qualifications:
All fiber in a given length of fiber must be of the same core diameter.
All Bulkhead adapters must be Single mode SC/APC (Green) adapters.
All terminations cross connections or patches must be direct fusion splice or
MobileAccess specified patch cords listed below.

• Use only 8-degree SC/APC connectors (green color).
• Use only fusion splice for connecting two fibers.
• Use minimum splicing/connectors to achieve minimum losses on the fibers (<0.5dB).
• 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.
• Verify the Fiber Optic connections using a suitable fiber optic test procedure.
MA 1000M Installation and Configuration Guide 15
Site Preparation
• Pay special attention while connecting the SC/APC connectors - you must hear the “click”
when the connection is made.
3.3.3 RF Rules
• Use coax ½”, 50ohm, male-to-male N-type, (6-7dB for 1Ghz, 11dB for 2Ghz) for
connecting to RHU and RHU ports.
• Use coax RG223, 50ohm, male-to-male N-type for RF connections from the BUs to the
BTS/RBS and to the RIU.
• When using the MobileAccess™ system in an environment in which other indoor
coverage systems are installed, it is recommended (where possible) that the antennas
are placed at least two meters apart
• When bending coax cables, verify that the bending radius does not exceed the coax
specifications.
• Use wideband antennas supporting a range of 800Mhz to 2500Mhz
• Use a VSWR meter (i.e. Site Master or equivalent) for checking coax cables, including the
antennas. (<2). The VSWR must be measured prior to terminating the RHUs in the
remote communication rooms
• Terminate all unused RHU and RIU ports with a 50 ohm load
3.4 Power Consumption, Connections and Power
Supplies
3.4.1 Power Safety Instructions
SAFETY WARNINGS
• When installing or selecting the power supplies:
• Be sure to disconnect all power sources before servicing.
• Battery replacement in units - only the MA 410/430 controller has batteries. MA
410/430 Controller lithium type battery should only be replaced by MobileAccess service
personnel. Risk of exploding if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose
of used batteries according to the instructions.
• Calculate the required power according to the requirements of the specific installation
and then determine the configuration of the power supplies. The required DC cables will
then be determined by the selected PS configuration.
• Use only UL approved power supplies
• AC and DC power supply cables – use only the power cords supplied with the units
• Install external over-current protective devices for the system according to the
requirements described in section 3.4.3.

3.4.3 Circuit Breakers
Install fuse protections for the system according to the following criteria:
• The following system elements require external fuse protection: RIUs, BUs, and
410/430 Controllers.
• Referring to Table 3-1, calculate the required fuse protection.
• Example: a set of three elements consisting of a BU, RIU and MA 410/430 controller
requires a 2A circuit breaker.
3.4.4 Types of Power Supplies
MobileAccess supplies various power supplies that can be installed in a rack or mounted on a
wall, depending on your configuration.
3.5 Installation Conventions
Some of the basic installation conventions are listed below for the MA 1000 system:
• Base Units – are usually concentrated in the same location, most often in the main
communication room.
• Remote Hub Units usually placed in the communication shaft or closet of a
corresponding floor so they can be easily located. Each RHU can typically cover a floor of
up to 30,000 sq ft.
• Fiber optic cable - bundled fibers are terminated into the Base Units in the main
communication room. The fibers are then routed to each coverage location where
individual fibers terminate into splice boxes. The splice box couples the installed fiber
into the remote units. Enough spare fibers should be installed to take into account future
expansion of the system.
MA 1000M Installation and Configuration Guide 17
Site Preparation
For example, for three remote units, six fibers are required. However, to allow for future
upgrades, it is recommended to install additional optic fibers to be connected to additional
RHUs.
The following figure illustrates fiber optic routing sufficient to cover 21 floors: each group of
strands can cover three floors as illustrated below, with two strands to spare. The first group
of strands coves floors 1, 2 and 3; the next group will cover floors 4, 5 and 6 through an
additional splice box.
Figure 12. Illustration of Fiber Optic Routing
• For remote power supply configuration - cable bundles are routed from the main
communication room and individual wire pairs are terminated into the power feed of
individual units.
By providing power from a single distribution point, maintenance can be reduced and UPS
backup can be easily provided. The maximum distance from the source to the termination
spot is 1000 feet using 18 gauge wires.
In many locations local codes do not require power to be run through conduit if 100 watts or
less is used. Please consult the regulations in your local jurisdiction prior to deploying remote
power. When power cables require distances greater than 1000 feet 14 or 16 gauge wire
may be used.
• On each floor - the antennas are connected to the RHUs using coax cables.

4.1 Overview
This chapter describes how the communication room and remote locations are installed. The
individual system elements are described in Chapter 2. In order to describe the installation
process clearly, it will be described as consisting of two logical parts:
A. Telecommunications room – installing the RIUs, BUs, MA 410/430
controllers, and the required
passive equipment
in the telecommunication room
close to the RF signal source. This installation may differ between single and multi-
building topologies.
B. Remote locations – RHU and Add-on installations and connections. These are
usually
wall mounts.
The installations for two basic topologies are described in detail: for single building and for multi-
building. By understanding the two generic installations you will be able to address any variations
in system deployment.
NOTE: For installations that include the MA NMS: Once the installation has been
completed, it can be verified using the MCT application (NMS User’s Guide) and the devices
monitored using the NMS Manager (NMS User’s Guide).
4.2 Communication Room Installation
NOTE: Usually, each operator installs the equipment that supports their services in a separate
rack.
It is recommended to install the following MobileAccess system modules in a 19” rack in the
communication room
• RIU 3U
• BU 1U
• MobileAccess 410/430 controller 1U
• Fiber Optic patch panel and splice tray
• Power supply/supplies (MobileAccess – 3U for each unit; units from other manufacturers
may vary in size)
MA 1000M Installation and Configuration Guide 19
System Installation
4.2.1 Rack Installation General Instructions
Verify that the rack height can support all the units to be installed, where you may also want to
consider future expansions.
Figure 13 shows the recommended physical location of the MobileAccess elements in the rack in
order to facilitate and simplify the cabling
connections.
The configuration is for a single operator.
If the site is serviced by more than one operator, each operator often installs their equipment in
a separate rack.
NOTE: Note that the MobileAccess 410/430 controller is at eye level to provide an easy
view of the LED indicators and LCD display and easy access to the local and remote monitoring
connections.

4.2.2 Rack Installation Safety Instructions
Review the following guidelines to help ensure your safety and protect the equipment from
damage during the installation.
• Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install or replace this
equipment.
• Verify that ambient temperature of the environment does not exceed 50°C (122°F)
• To maintain a low center of gravity, ensure that heavier equipment is installed near the
bottom of the rack and load the rack from the bottom to the top.
• Ensure that adequate airflow and ventilation within the rack and around the installed
components so that the safety of the equipment is not compromised. It is recommended
to allow for at least about 2 cm of airspace between devices in the rack.
• Verify that the equipment is grounded as required – especially the supply connections.
4.2.3 Single Building Rack Installation
This section provides an example of a single building main communication room installation
for a 24-floor building with Cellular and PCS coverage.
Since there are 24 floors, then 24 MA RHUs are required – one for each floor. In addition, the
following equipment will be installed in the main communication room:
• Three BUs – to support 24 RHUS
• One MA 430 controller for monitoring
• One RIU with Cellular and PCS BTSCs – to interface to the BTS/BDA
Figure 14. Example of Single-building Topology Communication Room Installation
MA 1000M Installation and Configuration Guide 21
System Installation
4.2.4 Multi-Building Rack Installation
The figure below provides an example of a multi-building solution which distributes two bands
from a main site over two remote sites up to 20Km away. The MA 330 units extend the RF
signal from the Main to the Remote buildings over a single strand of fiber. Uplink and downlink
signal are placed on the single fiber at 1310 and 1550 respectively.
The MA 330 system provides flexible solutions for various site requirements. The figure below
illustrates two types of installations:
• Remote Building 1 – installation in a remote location with several Base Units. For clarity,
the example shows two Base Units. However, the configuration applies to a maximum of four
(8-port) Base Units that are supported using an MA 330 Expansion Box.
The MA 330 Remote unit forwards the signals as follows:
• Service signals to the Base Units
• Control signals from MA 430 Master controller at the main site to the MA 410 Slave
controller at the remote site. The Base Units are controlled through the MA 410
controller.
• Building 2 – special installations in a remote location with
a single
Base Unit. The MA 330
Remote unit forwards both the service and the control signals from the main building
directly
to the Base Units. Note that a
MA 410 Controller is not required in this type of installation.
