3. Grounding and Lightning Requirements Proper lightning protection requires tthe he use of external primary protectors to complement the secondary protection built into the PureWave equipment. The primary protectors offer the surge currents a direct path to earth ground versus the undesirable “sneak” paths it may find through the equipment. equip Properly installed and grounded primary protectors will dramatically increase the surge withstanding capabilities of the PureWave equipment. Surges that exceed the maximum ratings of the primary protector devices will eventually cause them to fail, however these devices are generally designed to fail short or open, as the application warrants, such that further surges will not damage the end equipment. While a failed primary protector still results in a service outage, it does prevent further damage to the more expensive end equipment. A Base Station that is installed outdoor on the tower or mast (ODU) is especially vulnerable to lightning surges. Good surge mitigation practice starts with the lightning rod and its connection to a proper sized down conductor. The ground down conductor should be as straight as possible and avoid incidental contact with other conductors such that it represents the path of least resistance to earth ground from the lightning rod. The tower/mast is also earth grounded to keep its conductive elements at earth potential (0V) for personnel safety, and generally presents a less desirable path to ground to surge currents. ODU equipment and external primary protection devices are mounted to the tower/mast and should be bonded to t earth ground at the same point on the down conductor. This practice is intended to avoid ground loop currents that may flow from differences in potential between the tower/mast structure and down conductor while large surge currents are flowing in them respectively. espectively. Good surge mitigation practice also makes use of shielded cables with peripheral shield grounding to minimize potentials induced on circuit conductors. These cables should also be secured to the tower/mast at regular intervals to create physical separation from conductors which are carrying surge currents. This practice avoids incidental contact or possible insulation breakdown from high surge potentials. A Base Station that is installed indoor units (IDU) requires similar protection as the outdoor installation (ODU). Primary protection devices are installed on all cables just prior to entry of the facility and bonded to an earth ground stake. Likewise, the cable shields are grounded at the entry panel which should be bonded to the same earth arth ground stake. IDU equipment may also be vulnerable to surges entering via the AC power connection and steps should be taken to install a proper AC Surge Suppressor device to complete a well protected installation. 3.1 Lightning Protection Installation Components The following are considered to be the main elements that constitute the components of a lightning protection scheme. Lightning Rod Base Station and Antenna Grounding Down Conductor Coaxial and/or Cat 5 Cable Shield Grounding Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide Rev 1.1, Page 38 of 70 Figure 41, demonstrates emonstrates graphically how these elements are applied to an overall lightning design. Please note that this is simply a generic diagram and that each individual installation may have its own specific requirements which may differ from the diagram. The key point to note is the overall concept. The main items will be outlined in more detail in the following sections. Figure 41 - A Typical Lightning Protection Design 3.2 Lightning Rod The Lightning Rod must be welded to the mast structure and to a down conductor. This should be constructed of a steel pointed tip and is in general installed at the highest point of the tower. It operates to intercept the downward moving lightning strike by launching an upward going attachment spark. Once the attachment is achieved, the bulk of the lightning current follows the ionized path. In this way, the lightning rod diverts the lightning away from equipment on the tower. If the lightning rod is not installed at the highest point on the tower, tthe he equipment that is connected to the highest point (usually a radio) is the most likely attachment point. A Class I lightning rod (air terminal) is 3/8 3/8-inch copper or 1/2-inch inch aluminum, while Class II calls for 1/21/2 inch copper or 5/8-inch inch aluminum. Con Conductor ductor sizes vary accordingly, also depending on their composition (stranded or strips) and materials (aluminum or copper). Since most soils contain acid or alkaloid compounds that react with aluminum, any aluminum used must not come in contact with the soil. so Lightning rods (air terminals) 24 inches or higher should be used. Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide Rev 1.1, Page 39 of 70 Referring to figure 41 above, the “Height Above Antenna” above the highest item of equipment (generally the antenna) must be at least twice the distance (2 x d) between the outer surfa surface ce of the item and the tower. This will ensure a “protection cone” of 60 degrees around the tower (30 degrees each side from the lightning rod). In areas of high lightning activity, the “Height Above Antenna” should be increased to up 5 times the distance. 3.3 Down Conductor The purpose of the Down conductor is to provide the shortest and most direct path to the earth. The grounding of the down conductor to earth must be of ground resistance no more than 5 ohms. 3.4 Co-axial axial and/or Cat 5 Cable Shield Grounding The purpose of the Shield grounding is to minimize the potentials induced on circuit conductors plus keep the cable shields at earth potential (0V) for personnel safety. All ground lugs must be properly bonded to the grounding system of the protected components comp along with all Antenna cables. Prior to entry into any facility, the cables must be properly grounded to the building primary ground system at the building entrance panel. In case of an indoor installed Base Station then this will apply to the co co-axial axial cables that connect the Base Station to the Antenna. This is because these co co-axial cables provide the only inter-connection connection between the indoor and the outdoor. In the case of an outdoor installed Base Station, then this will apply to the Cat 5 cab cable le and power connection to the Base Station. In the case of an installation of the Base Station, it is the Cat 5 cable and the power that provide the inter-connections connections between the indoor and the outdoor. 3.5 Grounding and Bonding The National Electric Code requires equires that any accessible metallic surface of electronic equipment be connected to earth ground for personnel safety. Earth ground connections are achieved by direct connections to the AC power ground at the IDU and by a grounding lug on the ODU. A Craftsperson Craft must attach a proper size wire to the ODU ground lug during installation, else the ODU chassis will float at whatever potential appears at the shield connection of the coax. 3.6 Recommended Connection of a Bonded Ground We will now examine the concept pt of a bonded ground. Bonded connections for reliable, gas tight joints between conductors require removal of all paint from both contact surfaces and holding them together under high pressure such as with a bolt or screw. The use of toothed washers is al also so recommended to cause the conductive surfaces to bite into each other for improved connectivity and eliminate movement of the conductors due to vibration. Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide Rev 1.1, Page 40 of 70 3.7 Single Point Grounding Concept Extensive analysis and investigation of installations has led to the belief that the root cause at the heart of the majority of the failures is likely to be the presence of multi multi-point point grounding of equipment on the towers and in the huts. Single point grounding these elements will eliminate ground voltage differentials and this will dramatically increase the equipment survivability during surges. Single point grounding requires that the grounding leads from the antenna, Base Station and Surge Protection devices for a particular sector, are bonded together at the same point on the tower down conductor. It is not necessary to bond all the sectors tog together ether but to ensure the components of any individual sector have the same ground point on the tower. In the equipment hut, in the event of an indoor installation of the Base Station then the chassis ground of the Base Station and all the Surge Protection Devices grounds must be grounded at the same point (see figure 42). Figure 42 - Single Point Grounding Concept It is important to note that the following ground guidelines are followed during installations: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Surge Protection devices generally connect to ground by using a ground wire. Cut any extra ground wire length when finished connecting it to the single point earth ground Never loop or coil up the ground wire, always connect it straight to ground. A good earth ground impedance is less than 1.0 ohm. Measure ground impedance at the point where the protector ground wire is connected and not at the ground rod. Avoid sharp bends. Connect the ground wire as straight as possible. Connect the protector ground wire and equipment ground (both power g ground round and telecomm. ground) to a single common ground. Make sure all connections are fastened securely and are tight. Never install protectors during a storm and always follow your local safety codes. Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide Rev 1.1, Page 41 of 70 3.8 Lightning and Surge Protection PureWave recommends that Surge Protection Devices are installed to protect the Base Station. For an indoor installation of the Base Station these “Surge Protectors” devices would be installed at the entrance to the building that “houses” the Base Station (see fig figure 43). Figure 43 - Indoor Installed Base Station Relative to Position of Lightning Protectors Such a device will provide protection to the Base Station in the event of a “surge event” entering the Base Station through the RF port. Two recommended devices are: • • PolyPhaser Model AL-LSXM LSXM-ME (see figure 44). This is a 2GHz to 6GHz in-line line surge filter with a DC block. This is a uni-directional directional device. Altelicon Model AL-NMNFB NMNFB-9 (see figure 45). This is a DC to 6GHz in-line line surge filter. This is a bi-directional device. Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide Rev 1.1, Page 42 of 70 Figure 44 - PolyPhaser Model AL AL-LSXM-ME Surge Protector (with ground lug) Figure 45 – Altelicon Model AL AL-NMNFB-9 Surge Protector (with ground lug) Care must be undertaken when installing the surge protectors. IIf the device is bi-directional directional then it is irrelevant as to the direction of installation. If the device is uni uni-directional directional therefore it must be installed to ensure that the protected side of the surge protector is connected to the Base Station. In the case of the Polyphasor the N-type type male connection is connected directly to the Base Station output and the N-type female connection is connected to the Base Station to Antenna cable. The male to female design of the surge protector means that it is very diffic difficult ult to incorrectly connect. In addition it is recommended that a ground wire is connected to the ground lug that is provided with the surge unit (see figure 46). Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide Rev 1.1, Page 43 of 70 Figure 46 - PolyPhaser Surge Protector Connected to Cable with Ground Cable Attached Actual al installation will depend upon the tower specifics. General tower installation practices would have a large ground bar or plate just at the cable entrance to the building and the Surge Protectors would be either attached directly or via the ground wire tto o this plate/bar. Alternatively the Surge Protectors can be directly attached to the Base Station and then appropriate ground connections can be made. In the event that the Base Station Radio is installed outside then it is recommended to install the surge protection unit(s) between the Base Station and the Antenna. Figure 47 - Outdoor Installed Base Station Relative to Position of Lightning Protectors Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide Rev 1.1, Page 44 of 70 These “RF” surge protection devices will provide the Customer with two advantages (see figure 47). 1) 2) To protect the Base Station in the event of a “surge event” entering the Bas Base e Station through the RF port. It provides a mechanism to effectively “ground” together the Base Station, the RF surge protector and the antenna. In the case of an outdoor installation, it is recommended that suitable building entry surge protection is considered nsidered and the equipment installer may want to consider based upon individual installation requirements. Note: Please ensure that appropriate weather protection is applied to all outdoor Surge Protection devices. Surge protection devices for both the Cat 5 and the power connections to the Base Station are already built into the unit. No further devices are required to protect the unit. In addition, for an appropriate fee, PureWave provides a RF lightning surge protection kit. This includes the RF surg surge e protection devices and a “ground bar” which acts as a means to ground all the devices. Please refer to figure 4 48 8 for an example of this kit when installed. Figure 48 - Installed PureWave provides a RF lightning surge protection kit Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide Rev 1.1, Page 45 of 70 4. Weather Protection PureWave recommends that appropriate weather protection sealing and the application of an anti-seize anti material is applied to all “outdoor” installed elements of the system. Weatherproofing tape kits flawlessly seals the junction between two conn connectors. ectors. It not only protects the connection from water damage, it also prevents vibrations from loosening the interface. 4.1 Weather Sealing There are a range of commercially available weather protection “kits” that provide all the necessary components in addition to full instructions on “how to” weather protect. A generic weather sealing concept will be adopted rather than a specific one. The following universal weatherproofing kit was used: Name: Part #: Descripton: Manufacturer: Distributor: Universal Weatherproofing Kit 488136 Weatherproofing tape kit. Each kit contains (6) rolls of 2 2-1/2" 1/2" x 24" butyl tape, (2) rolls of 3/4" x 66' black electrical tape & (1) roll of 2" x 20' black electrical tape. Andrew Networks (P/N 221213) Tessco (http (http://www.tessco.com) The butyl tape is shown below in figure 4 49. Figure 49 - Butyl Tape Weather Protection The general procedure to install is: 1) Completely wrap the connection with the smaller 3/4inch smaller electrical (plastic) tape. Ensure that the tape extends back up the cable to cover the entire connector and that the tape overlays itself by approximately half a width (figures 50 and 51). Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide Rev 1.1, Page 46 of 70 Figure 50 - Connection to Antenna Figure 51 - Plastic (Electrical) Tape Applied Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide Rev 1.1, Page 47 of 70 2) Cut a length of the butyl such that it will completely cover the connection. Wrap the tape around the connector and press into place. Ensure that there are no gaps (figures 52 and 53). Figure 52 - Butyl Tape Being Applied Figure 53 - Butyl Tape Applied 3) Completely wrap the “wrapped assembly” with the larger 2 inch electrical (plastic) tape. Ensure that the tape extends back up the cable to cover the entire butyl tape and that the tape overlays itself by approximately half a width (figure 5 54). Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide Rev 1.1, Page 48 of 70 Figure 54- Second Plastic Tape Applied 4.2 Anti-Seize It is also suggested that a suitable anti anti-corrosion corrosion lubricant is applied to all exposed metal surfaces. A suitable lubricant is recommended below. Name: Part #: Descripton: Distributor: NEVER-SEEZ® SEEZ® Regular Grade Lubricant 1OZ (figure 55) V057940-8A 8A NEVER-SEEZ® SEEZ® regular grade lubricant is an anti anti-seize seize compound and extreme pressure lubricant in a 1 ounce tube. Protect metal parts against rust, corrosion and seizure up to 1800ºF. Ellsworth Adhesives (http://www.ellsworth.com) Figure 55 - Anti-Seize Lubricant Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide Rev 1.1, Page 49 of 70 To apply the material then the exposed metal surface is simply “painted” with the lubricant such that all exposed metal surfaces are completely covered (see figure 5 56). Note: These types of lubricants tend to be “messy” and “sticky” to apply due to the t nature of their intended application. Always read the labels or instructions provided and take necessary nec pre-cautions during application. Figure 56 - Anti-Seize Applied Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide Rev 1.1, Page 50 of 70 5. Base Station Bring Bring-up 5.1 Overview This section describes how the operator may power power-up up the PureWave Base Station and verify proper system initialization. The PureWave Base Station CLI (Command Line Interface) will be used to configure confi and ensure general system integrity integrity. 5.2 Connect to the Base Station There are three RJ45 Ethernet ports to connect and hence access the Base Station. RS232: This is the serial interface to the Base Station. This interface will be primarily used for “out of the box” configuration and debug purposes. E-NET NET 1: This Gigabit Ethernet port provides the data traffic backhaul interface that should be connected connecte to the Service Provider’s network equipment. This port allows in in-band band management of the Base Station. E-NET NET 2: This Gigabit Ethernet port provides an out out-of-band band management interface. In addition, this port can be used for daisy chaining to another bas base e station or to connect to an external device such as a web Camera. The procedure to connect to the Base Station is: • • • • Terminate the antenna ports ANT 1 and ANT 2 as directed. Connect and Power on the Base Station. Connect a “straight” Cat 5 Ethernet cabl cable between the E-NET NET 1 port on the Base Station and the directly to your PC or to your switch. To get access to Base Station CLI (Command Line Interface) you will need the following hardware that come with the install kit. These are as follows: RJ45 cable. DB9 male connector (Modem Adapter). DB9 female to DB9 female adapter. Optional: Serial to USB connector. Most laptop nowadays comes with USB connection instead of serial connection. If your PC/laptop has serial connection then you won’t need this adapter. If not, then you will need to get serial to USB adapter to access the BS CLI (figure 57). Figure 57 – Serial to USB adapter (DB9 Male) Quantum 1000 Base Station User Guide Rev 1.1, Page 51 of 70 Plug one end of a “straight” Cat 5 Ethernet cable into the RS232 port on the Base Station and the other end into the RJ45 to Modem adapter. Connect the other end of this Modem adapter to a DB9 serial cable and connect this DB9 serial cable to a USB adapter that connect to your laptop. Please refer to figure 58 for the physical layout.
