In-building RF Repeater simutaneously operates at 800MHz frequencies and has one Donor ANT
Port for aiming at each BTS, and one Server Port for the In-building coverage. Therefore the
Cavity Filters applied to the Front End of Donor ANT Port and Server ANT Port consists of DPX,
has DPX which multiplexes all Tx/Rx into one path.

4.1.1 Checkpoints before turning on the Repeater
1) System Power Check: AC electrical power to the repeater should be 110V, input electricity
only after power verification.
2) Input RF Signal Range: Optimal input RSSI into the repeater is -55dBm ~ -25dBm for
800MHz. User should verify input condition of Donor ANT. If the input RSSI exceeds -20dBm,
then external attenuators should be used.
3) Isolation check between DONOR/SERVER ANT: Isolation condition of this equipment is
87dBc (Gain+7dB) for 800MHz. User should check its condition before installation.
15
Bell Mobility User Manual
In-building Repeater
4.1.3 System Setup
1) This equipment is basically wall mountable.
2) Installer will have to connect the power supply (after verifying the input power) and RF cable
to the Repeater and then it will be ready to use.
3) For grounding, there is a grounding terminal in main power supply which will be plugged into
power
outlet. There is also a separate grounding terminal on the repeater which should be
connected to the on-site grounding terminal to ensure proper grounding.
4) Mounting of repeater should be done by at least two technicians to ensure a safe and proper
installation.

1) Check points before open:
a. Verification of system installation status:
- Electricity, In/Out antennas, cable connection, and equipment mount status.
b. Verification of system accessories:
- User should check all necessary accessories.
c. Check receipt signal level
- Installer should check whether environmental conditions are in accordance
with system specification to ensure that system operation will be optimized.
2) Check points after open:
a. Check external LED
1) RUN: Green light ON (Off: all lights off)
2) ALARM: Green light in normal status, Red light in alarming
3) SHUT DOWN: Green light in normal status, Red light in Shutdown status

b. Verification of operation status
User should verify following status with Output monitoring terminal, which is provided by
Spectrum Analyzer:
- Output power generation status, system spurious emission characteristics.
c. Verification of signal quality and strength in service area
User should verify signal strength and quality of in-service coverage area by using cell
phone or other measuring device.
d. Verification of upper-level NMS operation status
4.2 Troubleshooting
In case of abnormal operation, technician should diagnose abnormality via remote access or
directly connecting to repeater using Ethernet cable. If technician is required to conduct repairs
due to major alarm, repeater should first be powered off, and then technician should prepare
the proper measurement equipment before trying to fix the problem. In most cases of major
repairs, GST will simply replace the unit and conduct repairs at the appropriate facility.

4.2.3 Simple Troubleshooting Method
a. Verify LED Status, both on external LED’s as well as internal module LED’s
- Normal operation: Green light On. Alarming: Red LED on
b. Technician should check external and internal connectors to ensure that all connections are
tightly secure. These connectors should be cleaned regularly.

General Information
Transmitter Antenna
This device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below, and having a maximum gain of
80 dB. Antennas not included in this list or having a gain greater that cable loss of Antenna to Repeater t
han 12 dB are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
User Manual
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) t
his device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the
device.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen t
hat the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful co
mmunication.

(a) The nominal passband gain (dB); Cellular: 80.0 dB
(b) The nominal bandwidth; Cellular : 15 MHz
(c) The rated mean output power; Cellular : 25.0 dBm
(d) The input and output impedances; 50 ohms
(e) The following notice: "The Manufacturer's rated output power of this equipment is for single carrier o
peration. For situations when multiple carrier signals are present, the rating would have to be reduced by
3.5 dB, especially where the output signal is re-radiated and can cause interference to adjacent band use
rs. This power reduction is to be by means of input power or gain reduction and not by an attenuator at t
he output of the device."
