Take proper safety measures to protect your eyes and respiratory tract against the dust before

drilling holes.

2. Tighten an expansion bolt slightly and place it vertically into each hole.

3. Hit the expansion bolt with a rubber mallet until the expansion tube completely enters

the hole.

4. Partially tighten the expansion bolts clockwise.

5. Rotate the bolts counterclockwise to loosen them, and remove each M8x85 bolt, spring

washer, plastic tube, and flat washer in sequence.

After removing the expansion bolts, dispose of the plastic tubes.

Step 4 Use the removed flat washers, spring washers, and two M8x85 expansion bolts to secure the

main bracket onto the holes. Then use an M8 torque socket to tighten the expansion bolts with

a torque of 15 N·m (132.76 lbf·in.), as shown in Figure 6-37.

6.6 Installing a DRH on an IFS06

This section describes the procedure and precautions for installing a DRH on an IFS06.

Prerequisites

The hoist clamp on the main bracket is secured properly.

 Do not stand the DRH upright because the RF ports cannot support the weight of the

DRH.

 Place a foam pad or cardboard under a DRH to protect the DRH housing from damage

during the installation.

Context

 The upper and lower adjustable beams on an IFS06 can be moved up and down to fit for

heights of DRHs.

 DRHs can be installed on an IFS06 only when the ambient temperature is higher than or

equal to the lowest working temperature of the DRH and at least 5°C (41°F) lower than

the highest working temperature of the DRH. In this scenario, the IFS06 supports at least

three DRHs. When the ambient temperature is higher than or equal to the lowest working

temperature of the DRH and at least 10°C (50°F) lower than the highest working

temperature of the DRH, the IFS06 supports a maximum of six DRHs.

 Install DRHs in the sequence from bottom to top and from left to right.

 This section describes how to install a DRH in height-unrestricted scenarios. The

procedure for installing a DRH in height-restricted scenarios is the same as that in

height-unrestricted scenarios.

 When installing the main bracket, you need to use the M10x50 bolts delivered with the

IFS06.

 Rubber washers are easily compressed or broken, whereas do not need to be replaced.

Procedure

Step 1 Remove the plastic cap, M10 nut, spring washer, thick flat washer, auxiliary bracket, and

M10x150 bolt one by one. Reserve the main bracket on the IFS06.

Step 2 Use the M10x50 bolts delivered with the IFS06 to secure the main bracket to the IFS06, and

then use an M10 torque socket wrench to secure the bolts to 30 N·m (265.52 lbf·in.).

This section describes the procedure for closing the cover plate of a DRH cabling cavity.

7.1 Cabling Requirements

Cables must be routed according to the specified cabling requirements to prevent signal

interference.

If a cable listed below is not required, skip the routing requirements of the cable.

General Cabling Requirements

Requirements for Bending Radius

 The bending radius of the 7/8'' feeder must be more than 250 mm (9.84 in.), and the

bending radius of the 5/4'' feeder must be more than 380 mm (14.96 in.).

 The bending radius of the 1/4'' jumper must be more than 35 mm (1.38 in.). The bending

radius of the super-flexible 1/2'' jumper must be more than 50 mm (1.97 in.), and the

bending radius of the ordinary 1/2'' jumper must be more than 127 mm (5 in.).

 The bending radius of the power cable or PGND cable must be at least three times the

diameter of the cable.

 The bending radius of a fiber optic cable is at least 20 times the diameter of the fiber

optic cable, and the minimum bending radius of the breakout cable at each end of the

fiber optic cable is 30 mm (1.18 in.).

 The bending radius of the signal cable must be at least five times the diameter of the

cable.

Requirements for Cable Binding

 The same types of cable must be bound together.

 Different types of cable must be separately routed with the minimum spacing of 30 mm

(1.18 in.) and cannot be entangled.

 The cables must be bound tightly and neatly. The sheaths of the cables must not be

damaged.

 Cable ties are installed in the same direction, and those at the same horizontal line must

be in a straight line.

 The excess of indoor cable ties is trimmed off, and the excess of outdoor cable ties

allows about 5 mm (0.2 in.), without remaining rough edges.

 Labels or nameplates must be attached to both ends, joints, or turns of cables after they

are installed.

Security Requirements

 Cables should be placed away from sharp objects or wall burrs. If these positions are

inevitable, protect the cables with protection pipes.

 Cables must be routed away from heat sources, or heat-insulation materials are added

between cables and heat sources.

 Sufficient slack (recommended for about 0.1 m [0.33 ft]) is provided in cables at turns or

the position close to a device, facilitating cable and device maintenance.

 Cables are routed indoors through the feeder window.

 Drip loops must be made outside the feeder window, and the requirements for the

minimum bending radius are met.

 When cables are routed indoors, engineers are required indoors for cooperation.

 The feeder window must be waterproofed.

Outdoor Cabling Requirements

 Cables routed outdoors must be led through a pipe when they may be damaged.

 AC power cables, transmission cables, and cables buried in the ground must be

protected.

 If cables at the cabinet bottom need to be routed through a pipe along the ground, lead

the pipe into the cabinet base for about 30 mm (1.18 in.) to 50 mm (1.97 in.), not into the

cabinet. Block the pipe with waterproof tape or silicon gel, and secure the pipe to the

cable hole at the cabinet bottom with metal piece.

 If cables at the cabinet bottom need to be routed through a pipe along the metal cable

trough, do not lead the pipe into the cabinet base. The cable trough must be sealed and

routed through the cable hole at the cabinet bottom.

 When routing DRH cables, ensure that the highest positions of the routes of all DRH

cables (except RF cables and AISG cables) must be lower than the bottom of the DRH.

 Cables are secured with cable clips.

 Cables are routed neatly along the specified cabling direction and secured with cable

clips.

 The positions for cable clips are determined onsite. For example, the cable clips for the

7/8" feeder are installed at the spacing of 1.5 m (4.92 ft) to 2 m (6.56 ft) in the same

direction, and the cable clips for the power cables are installed at the spacing of 1.5 m

(4.92 ft) to 2 m (6.56 ft) in the same direction.

 Cable clips must be vertical with cables, and the cables in a cable clip must be parallel.

 After routing cables neatly and correctly, tighten the screws on cable clips.

Secure cables on the cable tray, as shown in Figure 7-1.

7.9 Installing a CPRI Fiber Optic Cable

This section describes the procedure for installing a CPRI fiber optic cable.

Prerequisites

Before the installation, verify that the single-mode optical module is used.

The optical modules to be installed must match CPRI rates.

Context

 A CPRI fiber optic cable transmits CPRI signals between a BBU and a DRH.

 For details about CPRI fiber optic cable connections, see section "CPRI Cable

Connections" in the DCU3900 Hardware Description.

Procedure

Step 1 Lower the pullers of two optical modules, insert one optical module into the CPRI0 port on

the DRH and the other optical module into the CPRI port on the BBU, and raise the pullers, as

shown in Figure 7-15.

Figure 7-15 Installing an optical module

The performance of an optical module that is exposed to the air for more than 20 minutes may

be abnormal. Therefore, you must insert an fiber optic cable into an unpacked optical module

within 20 minutes.

Step 2 Connect the end labeled 1A and 1B of the fiber optic cable to the optical module on the DRH

side, as shown in Figure 7-16.

 To avoid any damage to fiber optic cables, the cables connected to the DRH must be

installed according to the installation process. For details about the installation process, see

7.3 Installation Process.

 If only one fiber optic cable is required, secure the fiber optic cable into the cable clip near

the power cable to leave some slack at the bend.

Step 3 Connect the end labeled 2A and 2B of the fiber optic cable to the optical module on the BBU

side.

Step 4 Route the cables according to the instructions in 7.1 Cabling Requirements, and then use

cable ties to bind the cables.

Step 5 Label the installed cables according to the instructions in Attaching an L-Shaped Label.
