Node B Installation Guide
Step 9 DC Power Connection
The power supply input must be a nominal -48Vdc input, with maximum 5amps.
The connection of the mains to DC supply is via screw terminals in the mains connection
block refer to the figure below. Removal of the protective safety cover (3 screws) is required
to gain access to the power terminals.
Below is the sequence to be followed for mains connection.
Cable preparation - Specification: terminal blocks maximum cable size 8AWG (Ø3.5mm
or 8.3mm )
maximum size of outer diameter 7mm for overall screen of 2 core cable
Remove mains protective cover (3 screws) – see figure above
Remove blanking plug from right most position – see figure below
Feed cable thru cable gland nut, seal and cable gland
Insert cable into terminal block
Secure cable gland in base of Node B and tighen gland seal nut
Replace protective cover (3 screws)

Step 10 Backhaul Connections (Iub) to INC
The backhaul connections can be selected from the following interfaces
100BaseT
E3/T3
E1/T1
The connections are labeled and shown in the figure below. To install any of the cables remove
the blanking plug in the appropriate position to align with the interface selected. The cable gland
to seal plus strain relief the cable is as illustrated for the power connection above.
Note: If the Node B is in not in the same site location as the serving INC, there must be no
greater than a 5 millisecond delay on the backhaul connection. This can be provided by
microwave or land based facilities with a very high reliability rate of 99.9995%.

Iub Interfaces
100BaseT Connection - (Eth)
Feed the cables through the cables glands external from the enclosure before feeding the cable
through the appropriate gland hole at the base of the Node B.
Terminate the Ethernet cables with RJ45 connectors and secure the cable gland to the Node B.
Test the continuity for the Ethernet cables with test equipment consisting of a main and a remote
unit.
The termination for these interfaces is specified within the datasheets for the interfaces. The
specification for both cables should be CAT5 - 4 pair, screened cable, recommended Alcatel
LANmark-5 F2TP or equivalent.

Notes: Points to remember when installing Category 5 cables for the Node B 100Base T
Ethernet Backhaul.
1.
Do not kink the cable as the pairs are twisted to support 100Mhz operation and splitting the
pairs could reduce the performance of the cable.
2. When installing the RJ45 plugs onto the cable ensure pairs are untwisted to the minimum
and that the cable sheath is clamped within the connector. Again this is to ensure the
performance of the cable is not reduced.
The pin-outs for the external Ethernet interfaces are given in the following table & figure.

Terminate the E3/T3 cables with BNC connectors and secure the cable gland to the Node B. Test
the continuity for the Ethernet cables with test equipment consisting of a main and a remote unit.

The termination for these interfaces is specified within the datasheets for the interfaces. The
specification for both cables should be 75 .
E1/T1 Connections – (1 to 4)
Feed the 4 E1/T1 cables through the paired cables glands (ie. dual elastomer insert) external
from the enclosure before feeding the cable through the appropriate gland hole at the base of the
Node B.
Terminate the E1/T1 cables with RJ45 connectors and secure the cable gland to the Node B.
Test the continuity for the Ethernet cables with test equipment consisting of a main and a remote
unit. The pinouts for this interface are shown in the table above.
The termination for these interfaces is specified within the datasheets for the interfaces. The
specification for both cables should be CAT5 - 4 pair, screened cable, recommended Alcatel
LANmark-5 F2TP or equivalent.
Step 12 Antenna Cabling - Installation
Antennas and coaxial cable should be available at the site, and are part of the construction
checklist and general assumptions.
Two antennae per Node B are optimum, allowing receiver diversity, therefore two coaxial cables
per Node B are needed in this case. Diversity can be via polarization, in which case two feeder
runs to the same antenna are needed, feeding oppositely polarised sectors in the same physical
enclosure.
Cables should be properly marked to indicate what antenna the coaxial cables are to be
connected to the Node B serving the sector or area.
In the case where only one feeder / antenna is being used, this must be connected to the left
hand connector when viewed from the front of the Node B.
The following installation describes the position of the antenna ports and designations.

Step 13 Alarm Connections
If local alarms are to be utilised a terminal block has been provided on the Node B
termination panel. The specifications for those interface requirements are below:External alarm inputs are connected via connector J11 and the door interlock micro-switch is
connected via connector J10. Connectors J12 and J13 are used for the external alarm
outputs.
The maximum input voltage is restricted to 39V for a 500A 8/20 uS pulse, with a minimum
working voltage of 18V. All six input circuits are the same.
Alarm Inputs
The external alarm inputs shall be opto-isolated current loops. The voltage and currents
shall be supplied by the external source.
Alarm Outputs
The external alarm outputs shall be isolated normally-open relay contacts capable of
switching 100mA DC.
The connectors are 12way (alarm inputs) and 2ways for the alarm outputs, 2.5mm pitch
header that mate with the supplied cable mount - tension clamp, provided in a kit with the
Node B. There are additional strain relief kits also provided within the alarm kit.
The cable should be fed through the sealing cable glands assembly and the base of the
casting. Then the cables should be stripped 5-6mm and inserted into the connector prior to
mating with the NodeB. The cable gland to seal plus strain relief the cable is as illustrated for the
power connection above.
The signals are paired starting from the right, pin1 is the right-hand-side on each connector.

Step 14 GPS Installation & Operation
The Node B has an external/remote GPS antenna and receiver. The connection for the
antenna (N-Type) is located on the base of the Node B, refer to the figure above.
The GPS timing signal is used by the Node B for the TDD frame timing, so that all Node B's
in a network are synchronized. The GPS signal is also used by the master oscillator for a
frequency reference. The Node B can operate for two hours after a loss of GPS timing but a
gradual drift of the frame timing will result in system interference and a loss of Node B
selection / reselection capability.
A suitable Node B GPS antenna is shipped with every Node B. This antenna should be used
with a maximum of 15 metres cable of RG6 type cable plus male N-type connectors at each
end. For longer runs, the cable losses will affect signal strength and could impede GPS
signal performance.
For proper operation of the GPS receiver, the Node B GPS Antenna must have a clear
southern view of the sky. A site survey should be done before Node B installation to verify
that the Node B installation location is suitable for GPS reception.
A simple survey method is to take a handheld GPS receiver to the site and verify that GPS
lock is obtained in the location of the Node B installation. The handheld GPS should be able
to obtain a "locked" condition within 2 minutes of power-on, and should be able to see a
minimum of 4 satellites at all times.
The GPS receiver, integral to the Node B, is automatically enabled when the Node B is
powered and there are no adjustments or settings to be made by the user.
Note: When the Node B is to be installed on or near a tower or building wall, the GPS survey
should replicate the configuration exactly.
When tower space is at a premium, or when long cable runs are involved, it may be
preferable to use a single GPS antenna to feed multiple Node Bs. It is possible to use one
GPS antenna with up to three units, providing that a passive splitter is used.
Caution: It is essential that in a ‘single GPS antenna supporting multi-Node B’ installation
only one of the Node B’s is designated and configured to supply the GPS antenna with +5V
via the GPS antenna cable as in a standard single installation.
The remaining subordinate Node Bs are provided their GPS signal through a DC block
device. Failure to do this may result in damage to the Node B. It should also be noted that in
the event of power failure to the DC supplying Node B, GPS reception to all Node B’s will be
affected.
