Installation Manual iSiteC BTS3601C CDMA Base Station Hardware Installation 2 Installing Cabinet Hardware 2-6 2.2.2 Example of Indoor Plinth Installation Inside the equipment room, if BTS cannot be installed on the wall (e.g. structure pole, hollow wall body, clapboard wall in the simplified equipment room), it can be installed on the plinth. The position of the plinth should be as close to the wall as possible. Figure 2-4 shows the indoor plinth installation of BTS with IAFB. 1) Front view 2) Side view 3) BTS3601C 4) IAFB 5) Indoor grounding bar 6) Support 7) Feeder window 8) Jumper 9) Protection grounding 10) BTS3601C PGND cable 11) IAFB grounding bar 12) Power cable 13) GPS feeder 14) Wall Figure 2-4 Installing BTS3601C on the plinth 2.2.3 Example of Concrete Pole Installation This installation mode applies to such environment as fields, villages, towns, road sides, etc. to cover the locations like villages and towns. In this case, two poles must be used in the installation no matter that the BTS to be installed is an omni BTS or a directional one. I. Facility requirements l The standard spacing between two poles should be 5m (not less than 3.5m at least), and horizontal diversity distance between two antennae should be 6m (not less than 5m at least). For an omni BTS, a metal mast should be used to meet the
Installation Manual iSiteC BTS3601C CDMA Base Station Hardware Installation 2 Installing Cabinet Hardware 2-7 requirements for horizontal diversity between two antennae. For a directional BTS, only a dual polarization antenna is required and the spacing between two poles should be determined for the convenience of platform establishment. l If the platform is established 3m above the ground, for an O(1) BTS, the platform should be strong enough to bear the load over 500kg; for an S(1/1/1) BTS, the platform is required to bear the load over 1500kg. l Between two poles, two or more metal fixing beams should be installed. And at the joints between beams and poles, the beams should be welded reliably with the down leads of pole lightning arresters. Dot welding is not allowed. It is recommended to install a metal fixing beam respectively on the platform and at the place 2m above the platform. And install two (according to the type of BTS) 2m metal holding supports between two beams by soldering so as to bear the BTS3601C and other equipment. The diameter of each holding support is 60mm~114mm, and the spacing between them is 80cm. l Install a vertical cabling ladder (300mm wide) via the metal fixing beam between two poles. The lower end of the ladder should be 1.2m away from the platform. Connect the fixing beams, on which the cabling ladder is fixed, to the flat steel (for lightning protection and grounding) by soldering. Dot welding is not allowed. l The antenna support is made of steel pipe with the diameter 60mm~114mm. The omni antenna should be 1m away from the antenna support horizontally. In the case of a directional antenna, its holding support may remain unextended. II. Layout Figure 2-5 shows the installation of BTS3601C by two concrete poles.

Note l To facilitate the introduction of power cables and trunk cables, first determine the metal holding support on which the BTS3601C is to be installed. IAFB or AC lightning protection box can be installed below the BTS3601C. The IABB can be fixed on the platform directly. If more than 2 battery boxes are needed, a platform should be established below the platform. l Equipment like the BTS3601C, IAFB, UPS, etc. should be installed between two poles via metal parts. It is not allowed to directly install them on poles. l When feeders are used, the antenna jumpers should be bound on the crosspieces of poles via cable ties. For the convenience of feeder connector preparation and maintenance, it is prohibited to lay feeders transversely. The feeders should be routed along the sides of the cabling rack. l If the poles are not long enough, it is recommended to connect the antenna and the BTS3601C via jumper. And the jumper should be bound at the sides of the cabling rack and on the crosspieces of poles via cable ties. Both ends of the jumper should be grounded. l Lightning arresters should be respectively installed on two poles, and the antenna of the BTS3601C should be in the protection range of the two arresters (pitch
Installation Manual iSiteC BTS3601C CDMA Base Station Hardware Installation 2 Installing Cabinet Hardware 2-9 angle 30°C between them), as shown in Figure 2-5. The 40mm%4mm hot-gavanlizing flat steel should be used as the downleads of arresters. l The external shielding layer of the BTS3601C antenna and feeder should be grounded at the bottom of the antenna and at the front end beofore they are connected to the BTS3601C. The grounding cable should be connected to the cabling ladder or other metal grounding parts. The grounding cable should be made of yellow-green (or black) plastic insulation copper wire with the core diameter not less than 6mm2. l Grounding bar can be installed on the metal holding support, or fixing beam, or platform directly and reliable electric connection should be achieved among the grounding bar and the metal parts aforementioned. A dedicated grounding downlead should be installed on the grounding bar and be connected to the counterpoise. l Power cables and trunk cables should not be winded or bound on the arresters or their downleads, instead, these cables should be kept as far as possible from the downleads of arresters. Power cables and signal cables should be distributed horizontally and the spacing between any two cables should be at least 5cm. And they should not be routed vertically and crossly. 2.2.4 Example of Metal Mast Installation on Building-top Such installation of BTS3601C is applied for the coverage of villages and towns. I. Facility requirements l For an omni BTS, 3 masts should be used (one is used to install the lightning arrester and the other two to install two monopole omni antennae. The spacing between the latter two masts should be over 4.5m. Two masts are generally used for a directional BTS, as dual polarization antenna is adopted for the BTS. l The length of the mast should be determined by the height of the BTS3601C antenna. However, based on the conditions on building-top, the mast length should not be more than 8m. l The mast should be made of steel pipe with sufficient intensity and the dialmeter from 60mm to 114mm. Each mast must be secured by three steep ropes at least. l A cabling rack should be installed between the masts on which the antenna is fixed. Its height should be lower than 1.2m. l The PGND bar should be fixed to the AC lightning protection box or at the bottom of the IAFB mast and close to the building wall. Following are three methods to connect the PGND cables: a) If the equipment room is located in the building, lead the grounding cable from the building-top to the grounding bar in the equipment room; b) Connect the grounding cable to the counterpoise at the building bottom;
Installation Manual iSiteC BTS3601C CDMA Base Station Hardware Installation 2 Installing Cabinet Hardware 2-10 c) Connect the grounding cable to the lightning protection zone on the building-top. II. Installation layout of an omni BTS3601C As shown in Figure 2-6, the mast in middle is used to install the lightning arrester; while in the rest two masts, the one being installed with BTS3601C is called master mast, and the other is called slave mast. 1) Lightning arrester 2) Cabling Rack 3) Antenna 4) GPS antenna 5) IAFB 6) BTS3601C Figure 2-6 Omni BTS3601C installation on metal masts III.

Note l First determine the mast on which the BTS3601C is to be installed during the planning. l For antenna jumper and feeder routed vertically, bind them on the metal masts with the spacing of 30cm via black cable ties; for antenna feeder routed along the cabling rack, fix them with the spacing of 1m or 2m via feeder clips. l Power cables from BTS3601C to ODU3601C should be protected by metal tubes, and fibers for cascading by currgated tube. Power cables and fibers routed vertically should be bound on the metal masts via black cable ties, and those routed horizontally should be bound to the cabling rack. l Power cables should be distributed along the outer side of the cabling rack, and far away from the fibers and feeders. 2.2.5 Example of Tower Installation This mode is applied to such locations as fields, villages, towns, and roadsides to cover villages, roads, etc. In this mode, the hoisting of BTS3601C is involved.
Installation Manual iSiteC BTS3601C CDMA Base Station Hardware Installation 2 Installing Cabinet Hardware 2-12 I. Facility requirements l The support on which the directional antenna is installed should be extended out of the platform for at least 0.5m. Proper support length of the omni antenna should be determined to meet the requirements for the horizontal diversity distance (over 4.5m) between two antennae. l The diameter of the holding support on which the antenna is installed should be 60mm~114mm. The length (generally, omni antenna: 1m; directional antenna: 3m) of it should be determined according to the antenna type and sizes. l A square platform(3m % 3m) should be established 3m above the ground with the bearer capability more than 500kg. And a sun-shading shed should be established 3m above the platform. l A 2m holding support should be fixed to the tower body vertically above the platform so as to install BTS3601C, IAFB, etc. The number of supports is determined by the number of BTS3601Cs, and the diameter of each support should be 60mm~114mm.

Installation Manual iSiteC BTS3601C CDMA Base Station Hardware Installation 2 Installing Cabinet Hardware 2-13 III. Note l When hoisting the BTS3601C, try to avoid any collision between BTS3601C and the tower. l Distribute feeders along one side of the tower evenly and tidily. And all feeders should be fixed via feeder dual-clips. l Install AC lightning protection box and grounding busbar on one support, and the BTS3601C on the other. If the BTS3601C is cascaded with other BTS3601Cs, install them on other supports. l Install PGND bar on the tower directly. And its location should be close (the PGND cable length should not be more than 1m) to AC lightning protection box. It should have its dedicated grounding downlead (made of 40mm % 4mm hot-gavanlizing flat steel). PGND bar and its downlead should be connected via 35mm2 yellow-green plastic insulation copper wire or welded directly. Neither the bar nor the downlead should be insulated from the tower body. l The external shielding layer of BTS3601C coaxial feeder should be grounded on tower top and grounded before the feeder is connected to the BTS3601C. The grounding cable should be connected to the tower body. The grounding cable should be made of yellow-green (or black) plastic insulation copper wire with the core diameter not less than 6mm2. l Power cables and signal cables of BTS3601C should not be winded or bound on the tower. They should be cabled as horizontally as possible. 2.3 Installing Major Equipment 2.3.1 Installation Flow Figure 2-9 shows the flow to install BTS3601C major equipment:

Put washers and nuts onto the bolt, and tighten the nuts reliably with a spanner. 6) Method to install the sun-shading cover is the same as that mentioned in "Installing the box on concrete floor". 2.5 Installing Cables During the installation of BTS3601C major equipment, the cables (excluding feeders) at the BTS3601C side have been distributed. Following is to introduce the cable connections between major equipment and auxiliary equipment, and those among auxiliary equipment in terms of varied networking modes. The installation of feeders is covered in Chapter 3.
Installation Manual iSiteC BTS3601C CDMA Base Station Hardware Installation 2 Installing Cabinet Hardware 2-48 2.5.1 Cable Connection Requirements I. For trunk cables 1) Gists for indoor installation l Trunk cables should not be cross-connected with power cable and RF jumper. l When trunk cables are distributed along iron objects and poles, they must be protected by currgated cabling trough. The trough should be secured onto the wall with wall fixing clips. And the cables should be distributed horizontally and straight. If the turns of cables are unavoidable, the minimum angles at the turns should not be smaller than 120°. 2) Trunk cables must be labeled after connection. The label appearance and filling format is shown in Figure 2-48. Please strictly follow the format for the convenience of future maintenance. 1) Trunk cable label 2) E1 No. 3) Row No. 4) Slot No. (0~1) 5) Subrack No. 6) Row No. 7) Line No. 8) E1 No. (on DDF) 9) Column No. 10) Column No. Figure 2-48 Appearance and filling format for 75W trunk cable labels 3) Gists for outdoor installation l If the transmission equipment is located on the same platform with the BTS3601C, transmission cables must be protected by currgated tubes, which should be fixed with black ties. And cables should be distributed horizontally and straight, and smoothly via circular arcs at the turns. l If transmission equipment does not share the same platform with the BTS3601C, the transmission cable between them need to be distributed in air. So double shielded cable should be adopted with both ends of the external cable grounded and connected to the grounding cable at the BTS3601C side, then to the
Installation Manual iSiteC BTS3601C CDMA Base Station Hardware Installation 2 Installing Cabinet Hardware 2-49 grounding busbar. If no double shielded cable is avaialble, the transmission cables must wear the 50m-long metal tubes. And both ends of the tube should be grounded. l Trunk cable should be labeled after the distribution. II. For power cables 1) Gists for indoor installation l Power cables should not be cross-connected or in parallel with signal cables. l Cables distributed on the wall must be protected by PVC cabling trough, which should be fixed on the wall with wall fixing clips. And cables should be distributed horizontally and straight. Even if turns are unavoidable, the minimum angle at each turn should not be smaller than 120°. l Power cables should be labeled after the connection. Figure 2-49 shows the appearance of a power cable label. Figure 2-49 Power cable label appearance 2) Gists for outdoor installation l It is strongly prohibited to tie AC power cable on the iron objects and then lead it into BTS3601C. Instead, the cable should be first connected to porcelain insulator, then to BTS3601C. l Power cables distributed along the iron object and pole must be protected by currgated tubes, as well as the transmission cables. The tubes should be fixed with black ties. Cables should be distributed as horizontally and straight as possible. If turns of cables are unavoidable, the turns should be be made smoothly via circular arcs. III. For grounding cables As the requirements for grounding cable connections are comparatively complicated. Following is to describe them in terms of varied installation modes. 1) Installing BTS3601C on tower l The grounding of BTS3601C system and tower lightning protection system must share the same grounding body. l When the BTS3601C is close to the transformer for power distribution (straight distance less than 30m), the counterpoise of the BTS3601C system should be connected to that of the transformer and form a unified counterpoise.
Installation Manual iSiteC BTS3601C CDMA Base Station Hardware Installation 2 Installing Cabinet Hardware 2-50 l When an independent grounding busbar is adopted for the BTS3601C, it should be installed on the tower directly without any insulation processing. The grounding busbar of the BTS3601C should have the dedicated grounding downlead made of 40%4mm hot-gavanlizing flat steel. The PGND bar should be connected or welded to the grounding downlead via 35mm2 yellow-green plastic insulation copper core wire. The downlead should not be insulated from the tower body. 2) Installing BTS3601C on poles l The PGND of BTS3601C system should share the same grounding body with the lightning protection grounding of poles. l When the BTS3601C is close to the transformer for power distribution (straight distance less than 30m), the counterpoise of the BTS3601C system should be connected to that of the transformer so as to form a unified counterpoise. l The overlapped parts of the metal fixing beam (between the two poles) and the downlead of the lightning arrester should be soldered together reliably. Various equipment is installed on the metal holding support between fixing beams (the support is soldered on the beams). The mechnical parts of all equipment should contact the metal holding support directly without any insulation processing. Full-length welding should be adopted here, instead of dot welding, as the latter is unreliable. l The overlapped parts between the metal fixing parts of the platform and the downleads of the two lightning arresters should be reliably welded together. Or, instead, a 40%4mm hot-galvanizing flat steel should be installed on the platform. The two ends of the steel should be welded to the bench and the middle part of the steel to the downleads of arresters. If the platform and the downleads of arresters have not be welded together when the concrete pole is set up, connect them via 35mm2 yellow-green protection grounding cable and the grounding clip that connects the flat steel to the OT. Full-length welding should be adopted here, instead of dot welding, as the latter is unreliable. l Cabling ladder should be installed and fixed via metal fixing beam between two poles for antenna feeders. Good electric connection should be achieved between the cabling ladder and the fixing beam. Meanwhile, the overlapped parts of the fixing beam and the downlead of the lightning arrester should be welded together. l BTS3601C grounding busbar should be installed directly on metal holding support or platform without any insulation processing. A dedicated grounding downlead (made of 40%4mm hot-galvanizing flat steel) should be prepared for the grounding busbar. BTS3601C grounding busbar should be connected to the grounding downlead via 35mm2 yellow-green plastic insulation copper wire or be welded with it. And the downlead should not be insulated from various metal parts between the two poles. l Installing BTS3601C on metal mast of building-top l The PGND of BTS3601C system should share the same grounding body with the lightning protection grounding of the metal mast on building-top.
Installation Manual iSiteC BTS3601C CDMA Base Station Hardware Installation 2 Installing Cabinet Hardware 2-51 l If the building containing the BTS3601C is close (straight distance less than 30m) to the transformer for power distribution, the counterpoise of the building should be connected to that of the transformer and form a unified counterpoise. l BTS3601C grounding busbar should be installed together with the BTS3601C directly on the metal mast without any insulation processing. At the same time, a grounding cable should be led from the metal mast to the BTS3601C grounding busbar, be fixed via bolts or be welded onto the metal mast. It should be made of yellow-green plastic insulation copper wire with the core diameter not less than 16mm2. Or, instead, a piece of 40%4mm hot-galvanizing flat steel should be welded onto the mast and the wire hole should be reserved on the other end of the steel, so as to connect grounding cable to the BTS3601C grounding busbar. l If grounding bar or grounding point is available in the building-top or inside the building (e.g. the PGND bar of the communication euipment room), the downlead of the BTS3601C grounding busbar should be connected directly to the grounding bar available on building-top or inside the building. The grounding downlead should be made of yellow-green plastic insulation copper wire with the core diameter not less than 35mm2. l If no grounding point is available inside the building, the downlead of the BTS3601C grounding busbar should be led down to the building bottom and connected to the counterpoise of the building. The downlead should be made of 40%4mm hot-galvanizing flat steel or yellow-green plastic insulation copper wire with the core diameter not less than 35mm2. 3) Installing BTS3601C indoors l If the equipment room is close (straight distance less than 30m) to the transformer for power distribution, the counterpoise of the equipment room should be connected to that of the transformer so as to form a unified counterpoise. l If PGND bar is available inside the equipment room, the grounding busbar of the BTS3601C system should be connected via PGND cable to the grounding bar of the equipment room directly. The grounding cable should be made of 35mm2 yellow-green plastic insulation copper wire. l If PGND bar is available in other rooms (e.g. communication equipment room in the building) instead of the equipment room, the downlead of the BTS3601C grounding busbar should be connected to the grounding bar in such room. The grounding downlead should be made of yellow-green plastic insulation copper wire with the core diameter not less than 35mm2. If no groundign point is available in the whole building, the downlead may be led down to the bottom of the building then to the counterpoise of the building. The grounding downlead should be made of yellow-green plastic insulation copper wire with the core diameter not less than 35mm2.

All boxes mentioned in the chapter are of 20kA. Three cables are used for the external connection of the AC lightning protection box: 1) External power supply input cable It is a twin-core cable (L, N). When AC power is led into the box via this cable, the live wire is connected to the "L" end and the neutral wire to the "N" end. The cable is provided by user and the ends of the cable can be distinguished via a multimeter, i.e. the one with lower voltage is "N" end, and the higher one is "L" end. 2) Cable connecting the box to the BTS3601C It is a complete three-core cable (L, N, and PE). The port at BTS3601C side is a round waterproof connector which has been installed during the instllation of major equipment. The output interface of the lightning protection box is an air switch. When connecting
Installation Manual iSiteC BTS3601C CDMA Base Station Hardware Installation 2 Installing Cabinet Hardware 2-53 this cable, directly take off the cover of the cable and insert the copper-core wire into the switch. In terms of its appearance, if the cable comprises three wires, black one, white one and yellow-green one, the black is L end, the white is N end, and the last one is PGND wire. If it is made of coffee, blue, and yellow-green wires, the coffee wire is the L, the blue wire is the N, and the last one is PGND wire. Figure 2-51 shows the connection. LLNNPE220VAC BTS3601CAC lightningprotection box Figure 2-51 Cable connection of AC lightning protection box networking (without UPS) 3) Grounding cable of the AC lightning protection box Inside the box, there is a grounding bar. If the AC power cable carries PGND cable (PE wire), the PGND cable should be grounded together with the PGND of the BTS3601C system. The PE wire should be connected directly to the grounding bar of the box. AC lightning protection box should have a PGND, and the PGND cable should be made of yellow-green plastic insulation copper wire with the core diameter not less than 16mm2. The length of the PGND cable connecting to the BTS3601C grounding busbar should be less than 1m. Caution: 1) Generally, the only power cable provided by Huawei together with the BTS3601C is 3m. Users are required to prepare the extra cable if it is not long enough. 2) The external AC power cable to the BTS3601C should be connected to the AC lightning protection box. It is not allowed to connect the external power cable to the terminal for power distribution in the IAFB first, then to the AC lightning protection box. 3) Above principles for cable connection are also applicable to the IAFB (with AC lightning protection box built-in).

Following is to describe the cable connection between the IABB and the BTS3601C. 1) Cable connection between IABB and BTS3601C Two cables are led out from the IABB. One is of +24V and red, and the other is of GND and black. Two cables are connected to the DC power cable of the BTS3601C through a commutator. The +24V cable is interconnected to the red one of the BTS3601C DC power cable through the red plug of the commutator; and the blcak GND cable is interconnected to the black one of the BTS3601C power cable through the black pulg of the commutator. After their interconnections, three types of tapes should be used for the waterproof of the connections. The detailed processing is available in Section 2.3.6. 2) Grounding of the IABB The battery box is generally installed on the platform. In this case, the metal shell of the box should be grounded, and the PGND wire should be connected to the BTS3601C grounding busbar from the PGND terminal.

Each cable has one of its ends equipped with a four-core plug to connect to the UPS. On plugs, labels are attached to tell the positive end (+) and negative end (-). The other end needs to be prepared at site: There are two big OT connectors and heat-shrink tubes; cut the available cable (10m long) between the UPS and the IABB into the piece (with proper length according to the site conditions), then make the OT connector with a crimping piler and then connect the terminal to the connector at the battery. This cable should be led through the inlet at the bottom of the battery box and in. The cable length should be minimized for the sake of lightning protection. Caution: 1) The cables must be connected to the UPS and the battery box correctly with their polarities in correspondence with thoe at the plugs of the UPS and the battery box. Any incorrect connection will result in the damage of the UPS and batteries. 2) Relabel the cut cable correctly at once if the original label has been damaged when cuting the cable. 2) Cable connection among IAFB, BTS3601C and UPS It is required to connect cables among IAFB, BTS3601C and UPS according to labels on them, the correspondence shown in Figure 2-57 and Figure 2-58, and the correspondence between labels and cables described in Table 2-4. & Note: Figure 2-58 shows the front view of the cable connection on DDF shown in Figure 2-57.
