Simulcast Hardware Installation
Equipment Inspection and Inventory
Equipment Inspection and Inventory
Motorola recommends that an inventory of all equipment is taken with a Motorola representative to ensure
that the order is complete. Carefully inspect all equipment and accessories to verify they arrived in good
condition. Promptly report any damaged or missing items to a Motorola representative.
Placement Recommendations
The following are recommendations for placing equipment at a site:
•
Secure each rack on a firm, and level floor.
•
Use the correct mounting hardware to prevent rack movement.
•
Use strain relief when installing and positioning cables and cords to help
ensure that no interruption of service occurs.
•
Allow at least 1 m (3 ft.) of space at the front and rear of the system to allow for
proper air flow, cooling, and safe access to equipment. The system components
require an ambient air temperature of 0º C to 50º C (32º to 122º F).
•
Locate the site racks and other equipment with enough spacing to allow access for service.
Service personnel require access to both the front and rear of the racks.
•
Locate the system in an area that is free of dust, smoke, and electrostatic discharge (ESD).
•
Ground the racks according to the Standards and Guidelines for
Communication Sites (68P81089E50).
Spacing Requirements
Proper spacing of equipment is essential for ready access to equipment, ease of maintenance, and safety of
personnel. Spacing requirements have been established to meet the National Fire Protection Associations
(NFPA) Code, and the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air Conditioning Engineers
(ASHRAE) standards. Also, adhere to any local regulations that apply to spacing requirements.
See the Standards and Guidelines for Communication Sites (68P81089E50) for
details on these space requirements.
Weight Distribution Within a Rack
To avoid hazards or damage from uneven loading of a rack, distribute the weight of equipment
evenly in the rack, and consider the limitations of equipment and cables. When possible,
mount the heaviest components in the bottom of the rack.

Rack Requirements
Chapter 2: Installing the Simulcast Subsystem Hardware
Rack Requirements
Most communications equipment is installed in a standard 48.26 cm (19-in.) EIA rack
or enclosed cabinet. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions when installing racks or
cabinets, and installing equipment into the rack or cabinet.
Use all supplied bracing hardware when installing a rack or cabinet and secure
all equipment within a rack or cabinet.
If additional equipment needs to be installed, refer to the system design document provided by
the Field Engineer or consult the Motorola Field Representative.
Bonding and Grounding
Cabinets and equpment racks include a rack grounding bar (RGB) with the capacity to terminate
numerous solid or stranded 6 AWG copper ground wires, which are associated with internal metallic
or fiber optic cables and external grounding to power company equipment.
You must ground all doors of a metal cabinet by bonding the door to the main cabinet
using a 6 AWG (minimum) copper wire.
The RGB is shipped with dual-hole lugs to terminate 2 AWG ground wires. The minimum
number of dual-hole attachments is system dependent and is specified by the customer. This
bar provides electrical continuity between all bonds and ground wire with a current carrying
capacity equal to or exceeding that of a 6 AWG copper wire.
See the Standards and Guidelines for Communication Sites (68P81089E50) for more
information on proper bonding and ground at a site.
Power Requirements
The Standards and Guidelines for Communication Sites (68P81089E50) defines the guidelines
and requirements for cabinets, which house equipment that requires AC power input. Some
of the guidelines and requirements are as follows:
2-10
•
The cabinet is designed to accept 120/240 V, single-phase power with an amperage
service as required by the electronic equipment.
•
Cabinets serviced by commercial power must be equipped with a nationally
recognized test laboratory (NRTL) certified power distribution panel that contains
a main circuit breaker or individual circuit breakers of the correct size as required
for the electronic equipment or specified by the customer.
•
A decal showing an electrical schematic of the power wiring must be affixed
to the inside surface of the cabinet.
•
All AC power equipment and electrical components must conform to National
Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) and National Electrical Code
(NEC). These must also be listed by an NRTL.
68P81003Y71-O
November 2002
Simulcast Hardware Installation
Antenna Requirements
•
A surge protector, designed to protect equipment systems from surges at a 120/240 V
service and load center, must be placed on the power feed ahead of all individual load
center circuit breakers. This protector must be listed by an NRTL for the purpose intended.
•
Selection of a surge protector is based on the susceptibility of the equipment
powered by the electrical service, with margin provided for locally generated
disturbances. See ANSI/IEEE C62.41 for more details.
•
At least one 120 VAC, 15 A duplex convenience outlet equipped with ground fault
interrupter (GFI) protection must be provided in the electronic equipment compartment.
Table 2-2 lists the required wire gauges for various installations. The “loop length” refers to
the combined length of the -48 VDC (hot) lead and the DC return lead. For example, a cabinet
installation that needs 16 feet of wire to reach the power supply rack has a total loop length
of 32 feet. For a standard installation, the equipment cabinet is located adjacent to the power
supply rack with a cable loop length less than 10.6 m (35 ft.).
Wire used for the cabinet power connection to the breaker panel shall not be less than 6 AWG. Total
cable loop (from the power supply rack breakers to the STR 3000 cabinet) voltage drop shall not
exceed 500 mV for the cabling of the -48 VDC (hot) lead and the DC return leads.
Some sites may require larger sizes than those noted in Table 2-2 to meet local codes. When larger cable
is used to run from a power source, the cable shall be “tapped down” to a smaller size for connection
to the STR 3000 breaker panel. In accordance with local code requirements, a properly sized electrical
box mounted on top of the STR 3000 rack cabinet or commercial tap cover is the point where the cable
size transition should take place. The site planner will specify the details of the transition.
When a “tapped down” connection is used, the total voltage drop between the “tapped
down” section and the main loop should not exceed 500 mV.
The screws that connect the power cables to the power supply rack are not provided and must be
locally procured. Power supply rack breaker panel screw size is 3/8-16 x 3/4.

Antenna Requirements
All antenna feed line installations are to be made through a metal antenna entry plate that
is external to the site building. See the Standards and Guidelines for Communication Sites
(68P81089E50) for details on the requirements for antenna feed lines.
RF Antenna at the Co-Located Site
The RF antenna provides a link between the prime and remote sites without introducing overload,
desensitivity, and intermodulation at a co-located site. You may need to install a fixed attenuator to the
antenna feed line at the site. The values for these attenuators can vary from site to site.

Transmit Antenna on the STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radio Rack
Chapter 2: Installing the Simulcast Subsystem Hardware
Transmit Antenna on the STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radio Rack
One transmit cavity combiner can support up to 12 base radios per transmit antenna. It is possible to
combine the base radios into as few as two cabinets, if they are adjacent. To increase system reliability
and eliminate a single point of failure, use a minimum of two transmit antennas per site.
GPS Requirements
A simulcast subsystem uses two Global Positioning System (GPS) antennas to provide a certain degree
of redundancy in case one antenna is damaged or inadvertently shadowing. Mount the two antennas at
least 3.05 m (10 ft.) apart with an unrestricted aerial view down to within 10˚ of the horizon in all
directions. The antennas must also be mounted high enough to clear the peak of the site roof.
Defining the Correct View for the Location
The hemispheric location of the site also affects installation of the GPS antennas. For systems in the
northern hemisphere, mount the antennas to maintain a clear view of the southern sky. For systems in
the southern hemisphere, mount the antennas to maintain a clear view of the northern sky.
Avoiding Obstructions
Be careful to avoid adjacent structures (such as trees and buildings), which can obstruct the GPS
antennas with their wide and solid profiles. Mount the antennas to clear these types of obstructions.
However, an adjacent antenna tower that protrudes into the required view at a prime or remote site does
not obstruct the view and only has a minimal effect on reception from the GPS satellite.
Isolate the GPS antennas from any RF interference by mounting the antennas at least
12˚ horizontally from other transmitting antennas.
GPS Antenna Line Loss
The maximum allowable line attenuation between the antenna and the TRAK 9100 GPS receiver is 10 dB.
This 10 dB figure includes a 4 dB margin for attenuation from foliage. So, in an installation in which there
is interference from foliage, allow for 6 dB line loss and 4 dB foliage attenuation. Installations in which
the antenna has an unobstructed view of the sky may have a maximum line attenuation of 10 dB.
In a typical installation using 0.5-in. low density foam coaxial cable, the length of the cable run
should never exceed 45.72 m (150 ft.). This is sufficient for most installations.
When considering the use of larger cables, calculate the cable lengths allowing 4.5 dB of loss at 1.5 GHz.
The remaining 1.5 dB of attenuation is provided by interior site cabling and connectors.
For more information on installation of the GPS antenna, see "Installing the Global
Positioning Satellite Antenna" on page 3-26.

Environmental Requirements
Environmental Requirements
One of the major considerations in designing a site is how to maintain an environment in which the
equipment can operate efficiently. A properly designed heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC)
system provides the proper environmental conditions for the communications equipment.
Each manufacturer specifies an operating or ambient temperature for their equipment.
These two terms for temperature are defined:
•
Operating temperature refers to the temperature within the equipment case with
the equipment operating at a given capacity or load.
•
Ambient temperature refers to the environmental temperature as typically measured
152 cm (5 ft.) above the floor in the center of an adjacent aisle.
For the specific environmental requirements for the equipment in a simulcast subsystem, see:
•
Chapter 3,"Installing the Prime Site (10Base-2)."
•
Chapter 4,"Installing the Prime Site (10Base-T)."
•
Chapter 5,"Installing the Digital Simulcast Remote Site (10Base-2)."
•
Chapter 6,"Installing the Digital Simulcast Remote Site (10Base-T)."
Expansion Considerations
Expansion cabinets or racks allow equipment to be added to a site. Each type of equipment has its
own specific cabinet or rack for installing additional devices. For example, install an expansion rack
to add STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radios to a site in the digital simulcast subsystem.
Each expansion cabinet or rack has its own requirements for installation. Detailed
information for expansions appear in "Installing the Expansion Cabinets" on page 5-10
and "Installing the Expansion Cabinets" on page 6-11.
Electrostatic Discharge
Electronic components, such as circuit boards and memory modules, can be extremely sensitive
to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Motorola recommends that an antistatic wrist strap and a
conductive foam pad be used when installing or upgrading the system.
If an ESD station is not available, wear an antistatic wrist strap. Wrap the strap around the wrist and
attach the ground end (usually a piece of copper foil or an alligator clip) to an electrical ground. An
electrical ground can be a piece of metal that literally runs into the ground (such as an unpainted
metal pipe) or the metal part of a grounded electrical appliance. An appliance is grounded if it
has a three-prong plug and is plugged into a three-prong grounded outlet.

FCC Requirements
Chapter 2: Installing the Simulcast Subsystem Hardware
Do not use a computer as a ground, because it is not plugged in during installation.
FCC Requirements
Radio frequency (RF) transmitters installed at sites within the United States must be in
compliance with the following FCC regulations:
•
Only persons holding a general class commercial radio telephone operator’s license
or non-licensed persons working under the immediate supervision of licensed
operators can make adjustments to radio transmitters.
•
The power input to the final RF stage shall not exceed the maximum power
specified on the current station authorization.
•
The frequency of the transmitter must be checked during initial installation of
the transmitter, when replacing modules, or when making adjustments that affect
the carrier frequency or modulation characteristics.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy. If not installed properly and
used in accordance with the instruction manuals, the equipment may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference, in which case the user is required to correct the interference.

OSHA Related Safety Requirements
OSHA Related Safety Requirements
The United States Department of Labor, through the provisions of the Occupational Safety and Health
Act (OSHA) of 1970, has established an electromagnetic energy safety standard that applies to the use
of this equipment. Proper use of this equipment will result in exposure below the OSHA limit.
Human Exposure Compliance for RF Energy
STR 3000 Simulcast Base Radios are designed to generate and radiate RF energy by means of
an external antenna. When terminated into a non-radiating RF load, the base radio equipment
is certified to comply with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulations pertaining
to human exposure of RF radiation in accordance with the FCC Rules Part 1 section 1.1310 as
published in title 47 code of federal regulations and procedures established in TIA/EIA TSB92, Report
on EME Evaluation for RF Cabinet Emissions Under FCC MPE Guidelines.
Compliance to FCC regulations of the final installation should be assessed and take into account
site specific characteristics, such as type and location of antennas, as well as site accessibility of
occupational personnel (controlled environment) and general public (uncontrolled environment). This
equipment should only be installed and maintained by trained technicians. Licensees of the FCC
using this equipment are responsible for ensuring that its installation and operation comply with FCC
regulations Part 1 section 1.1310 as published in title 47 code of federal regulations.
Whether a given installation meets FCC limits for human exposure to radio frequency radiation
may depend not only on this equipment, but also on whether the “environments” being assessed are
being affected by radio frequency fields from other equipment, the effects of which may add to the
level of exposure. Accordingly, the overall exposure may be affected by radio frequency generating
facilities that exist at the time the licensee’s equipment is being installed or even by equipment
installed later. Therefore, the effect of any such facilities must be considered in site selection and
in determining whether a particular installation meets the FCC requirements.
FCC OET Bulletin 65 provides materials to assist in making determinations if a given facility is
compliant with the human exposure to RF radiation limits. Determining the compliance of transmitter
sites of various complexities may be accomplished by means of computational methods.
In general, observe the following guidelines when working in or around radio transmitter sites:
68P81003Y71-O
•
Ensure that all personnel have electromagnetic energy awareness training.
•
Ensure that all personnel entering the site are authorized.
•
Obey all posted signs.
•
Assume all antennas are active.
•
Before working on antennas, notify owners and disable appropriate transmitters.
•
Maintain minimum of 1 m (3 ft.) clearance from all antennas.
•
Do not stop in front of antennas.
•
Use personal RF monitors while working near antennas.
•
Never operate transmitters without shields during normal operation.
•
Do not operate base station antennas in equipment rooms.

Installing the STR 3000 Base Radio Rack
Chapter 5: Installing the Digital Simulcast Remote Site (10Base-2)
Installing the STR 3000 Base Radio Rack
The STR 3000 Base Radio rack contains the RF channels and related components for a simulcast remote site.
The cables shipped with your system were sized for a specific racking
configuration. Swapping equipment within racks or from one rack to another can
put excessive strain on cables and cause cable failures. Do not install additional
equipment or devices into the rack as this may have a negative effect on the
thermal performance of the equipment and result in reduced safety or reliability.
Overview of the STR 3000 Base Radio Rack
The STR 3000 Base Radio is the RF portion of the 800 MHz, digital-only, simulcast remote
site infrastructure. The STR 3000 rack includes from one to six base radios, multicouplers,
combiner, isolator, junction panel, circuit breaker panel, and cabling in a single rack. This rack
provides the transmit and receive capabilities for the remote site.
The STR 3000 rack forwards digital voice and control packets from the comparator to the transmitter
and forwards digital voice and control packets from the receiver to the comparator.
Figure 5-2 shows the STR 3000 Base Radio rack with four base radios.

Procedure 5-1
How to Install the STR 3000 Rack
Place the rack carefully in the designated area where it will be installed at the
remote site. See the site plan for the correct location.
Bolt the rack to the floor using the correct hardware for the type of installation.
See the Standards and Guidelines for Communication Sites (68P81089E50) for
details on a rack installation.
Verify proper grounding of the rack.
Check to ensure all of the boards are properly seated in the site controller chassis.
Boards may have loosened during shipping.
Connect power connections to the STR 3000 rack.
See "Connecting Power to the STR 3000 Rack" on page 5-9 for more information.
Connecting the STR 3000 Rack to Ground
Connect each cabinet frame to the site master ground bar using a single dedicated 2 AWG ground wire.
The site ground wire should drop into the top of each cabinet and be connected to the designated
grounding stud located at the junction panel at the top rear of the cabinet. Single hole lugs
(1.27 cm (0.5-in.) diameter) are used for these grounding connections.
Never use a bare or damaged wire for the connection of chassis ground or other
electrical wiring to prevent damage to equipment or potential injury to personnel.

Simulcast Hardware Installation
Connecting Power to the STR 3000 Rack
Do NOT daisy-chain multiple equipment cabinet grounds using a single ground
wire. Doing so increases the overall inductance of the ground wire which can
distribute surge energy among the cabinets instead of to the master ground bar.
See Standards and Guidelines for Communications Sites (68P81089E50) for detailed
information on grounding the rack.
Connecting Power to the STR 3000 Rack
The STR 3000 rack requires a -48 VDC, which is provided by the DC power distribution.
Figure 5-4 shows the typical connections for power to the STR 3000 rack.
Figure 5-4
Typical Power Connections for the STR 3000 Rack
Determining Power Connection Wire Size
Wire size recommendations contained herein reflect Motorola engineering requirements for
proper system operation. Local regulations should be adhered to and will supersede any
other specifications in this manual, where applicable.
Do not use wire smaller than 16 mm2 CSA (5 AWG). Cable loop voltage drop
must not exceed 500 mV for cabling of the -48 VDC and DC return leads.

Operating Specifications for the Tower Top Amplifier
Installing the TRAK 9100 Simulcast Site Reference
The TRAK 9100 provides a composite 5 Mpps and 1 pps signal used for timing at a remote site. This
section describes how the TRAK 9100 simulcast site reference is installed at a remote site.
Overview of the TRAK 9100 Simulcast Site Reference
A simulcast system uses signals from the Navstar Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) system to
synchronize the audio from multiple transmitters. A GPS receiver needs to receive the 1 pps signal
from at least four satellites before it can establish its exact geographical location.
The TRAK 9100 uses the satellite signal to derive a high-precision 1 pps signal used in the simulcast
system for time launching. By launching signals at exactly the same time from multiple sites, destructive
interference of the transmitted signals in overlap areas is minimized. In addition to controlling the
launch, the use of GPS allows for variance in delay of the distribution network (T1/E1).
The TRAK 9100 simulcast site reference provides 1 pps and 5 Mpps reference signals
for the following components at a remote site:
•
Base radios
•
Remote site channel bank
•
Remote site hub
Figure 5-9 shows the modules and connections on the front view of the simulcast site reference.

Grounding the Chassis
Grounding the Chassis
Connect the grounding cable to the ground lug. The ground lug is a screw on the back of
the power supply located to the left of the AC power receptacles.
Use 6 AWG wire and the appropriate lug connected to chassis ground through to the RGB.
Wiring for Power
The two AC outlets on the rear of the panel provide power to all of the modules in the TRAK 9100.
Installing an Expansion Rack
See "Installing TRAK 9200 Simulcast Site Reference for Expansion" on page 5-31.
Installing the GPS Antenna
The GPS antenna feeds the TRAK 9100 simulcast site reference, which provides a 5 Mpps/1 pps signal (5
Mpps signal at 1 pps repetition rate) to the base radios and other components at the remote site. This
signal establishes timing functions for the transmit and receive frequencies for the base radios.
Perform Procedure 5-2 to install the GPS antenna.
Procedure 5-2
How to Install the GPS Antennas
Mount the GPS antenna with an unrestricted aerial down view to within 10˚ of
the horizon in all directions.
Mount the antennas high enough to clear the peak of the site roof using the
following guidelines:
• For systems in the northern hemisphere, mount the GPS antennas so that a
clear view of the southern sky is maintained.
• For systems in the southern hemisphere, mount the GPS antennas so that a
clear view of the northern sky is maintained.
Isolate the GPS antennas from RF interference by mounting the antennas at a
distance of at least 3.66 m (12 ft.) horizontally from the other antennas.
Mount the GPS antennas to clear obstructions and provide a clear path.
Adjacent structures (such as trees or buildings) are considered
obstructions due to their wide and solid profiles.
Adjacent antenna towers at the RF site which protrude into the
required view (but have a minimal effect on GPS satellite reception
due to their narrow, largely open profiles) are not considered
obstructions.

GPS Antenna Line Loss
Chapter 5: Installing the Digital Simulcast Remote Site (10Base-2)
The simulcast system will not operate properly if the GPS receiver is not locked onto at
least four GPS satellites. The four satellites are used to establish a three-dimensional
fix (latitude, longitude, and altitude) for the site.
The TRAK 9100 will free-run for a time period defined by configuration settings. However,
after the specified period while still operating without the GPS satellite signals, the simulcast
system will not operate. The GPS antennas must be properly positioned, and the cables and
connectors must be properly maintained to ensure operation of the simulcast system.
If the TRAK 9100 is powered down, the simulcast system will not operate properly until
the GPS receiver has locked onto the signals from at least four GPS satellites. This
process takes approximately 13 to 25 minutes to complete.
GPS Antenna Line Loss
Cutting the cable below a recommended minimum length can
cause problems with signal strength overload. Refer to Appendix
E in the TRAK 9100 Reference book.
The maximum allowable line attenuation between the antenna and the TRAK 9100 is 6 dB. This
includes a 4 dB margin for attenuation from foliage. Installations in which the antenna has an
unobstructed view of the sky may have a maximum line attenuation of 10 dB.
In a typical installation using 0.5-in., low density foam coaxial cable, the length of the cable run
should never exceed 45.72 m (150 ft). This is sufficient for most installations.
When considering the use of larger cables, calculate the cable lengths allowing 4.5 dB of loss at 1.5 GHz.
The remaining 1.5 dB of attenuation is provided by interior site cabling and connectors.

Overview of the TRAK 9200 Simulcast Site Reference
The TRAK 9200 simulcast site reference differs from the TRAK 9100 simulcast site reference with
respect to two modules: the power supply and the termination/fault logic unit.
The power supply has only one output (5 VDC). So the indicators differ from those referenced in "Powering
Up the TRAK 9100 Simulcast Site Reference" on page 5-30. There are only two indicators, as follows:
•
Green, indicating the 5 VDC power supply is operating properly.
•
Red, indicating a fault with the power supply.
The fault logic unit serves the same function as the fault sense unit in the TRAK 9100.
