1.1 Positioning
This product description is oriented to the battery intelligent management system (eBIMS)
V100R001.
Batteries, an indispensable part of sites, are the O&M focus. The correctness of battery
performance management, timeliness of battery fault rectification, and fix rate of network
problems caused by battery faults have a large impact on network status. Therefore, low-cost
automatic detection and analysis for batteries become key requirements of the management
service center. The Huawei eBIMS fully meets battery maintenance requirements by remotely
monitoring real-time battery status, detecting, predicting, and reporting battery faults, and
identifying batteries reaching their replacement thresholds and guiding the battery
replacement. Figure 1-1 shows the eBIMS solution.

1.2 Characteristics
The eBIMS supports client-free fast deployment, comprehensively monitors the battery
temperature, voltage, and impedance, and achieves simple and fast operation.
Simple Structure, Achieving Fast Deployment
The eBIMS uses the modular design. Wireless connection is used between the eBat and
eBox, reducing cables and simplifying installation.
The eBat connects to a battery using OT terminals. The eBox deployment is flexible and
convenient because the eBox can be installed on a wall or by using hook-and-loop
fasteners.
The eBIMS supports client-free installation and has a built-in database.
Simple Operation, Improving User Experience
The eBIMS uses the lightweight browser/server (B/S) architecture, uses the Web 2.0
technology, and allows users to perform access and operation using the Internet Explorer.
The intelligent report analysis function displays the battery temperature, impedance, and
voltage performance parameters using diversified graphs.
The configuration management function allows batch processing, achieving fast setting
of battery parameters.
Users can customize the home page to know the information to be concerned.
Real-Time Fault Monitoring, Reducing Battery Maintenance Costs Effectively
The eBIMS real-timely monitors and reports the temperature, voltage, and impedance
alarms of all batteries, preventing network accidents caused by battery faults.
The eBIMS monitors faults 24/7 and provides fault reminders in a timely manner, saving
the routine onsite maintenance costs of batteries.

3.2 Resource Management
The eBIMS resource management covers management domains and physical resources
connected to the eBIMS.
Physical resources refer to all the devices connected to the eBIMS.
Management domain refers to a small network separated from a larger network by a
certain principle (region or device type) for easy network management. In resource
management, this type of small network is called a management domain. The eBIMS
management domains are classified by region, site, and equipment room.
Resource Management
Supports creation of a single management domain.
Supports creation of a single device or devices in batches.
Supports modification of management domain and device information.
Supports display of complete information of every battery as shown in Figure 3-1.
Figure 3-1 Battery information list
3.3 Monitoring Management
Monitoring management includes functions like monitoring, collecting, displaying,
confirming, clearing, and shielding device alarms, and querying historical events and alarms.
These functions facilitate fast discovery, location, and handling of network or device faults.
Alarms are classified into critical, major, minor, and warning alarms.
Critical alarm: indicates that services have been affected and requires immediate
rectification measures.
Major alarm: indicates that services have been affected and severe results may occur if
the alarm is not handled in a timely manner.
Minor alarm: indicates that services have not been affected but requires rectification
measures to prevent more severe faults.
Warning: indicates that services have not been affected, but potential faults that will
affect services have been detected.

15
Scenarios Requiring the eBIMS
Typical scenarios:
1. Outdoor sites encounter network problems because battery aging due to
overcharge/overdischarge/undercharge/underdischarge deteriorates backup time. In this
case, maintenance costs are increased because multiple site visits are required to confirm
the battery location and quantity, check battery performance, and determine whether to
replace batteries.
2. Routine testing and inspection of batteries inside equipment rooms require much human
power. Moreover, one-by-one battery check cannot accurately determine the battery
status, causing much waste.
Deployment Inside an Outdoor Cabinet
The eBats and eBox are deployed in an outdoor cabinet. They communicate with each other
wirelessly. The eBox transmits collected battery data to the server. Users log in to the server to
perform real-time monitoring and operations. This solution achieves real-time monitoring and
detection of battery status, predicts fault risks, and avoids futile site visits. Maintenance costs
are reduced. Figure 4-1 shows details of this scenario.
