About this information product
About this information product
Purpose
This information product (IP) provides instructions for the physical installation of the
Alcatel-Lucent CDMA BTS 8420 and AWS 8420 indoor radio cabinets.
The tasks are to be performed after completion of all site preparation tasks, which are
covered in Alcatel-Lucent CDMA Base Station 8420 Indoor Site Preparation
Guidelines, 401-703-443.
Following installation of the indoor 8420 radio cabinet, the next step is to test and
integrate it into the network. Procedures for testing and integration may be found in
CDMA Modcell and Base Station Integrated Engineering Handbook (IEH 238).
Important! The procedures contained in this IP are based on Alcatel-Lucent
standard practices. Prior to beginning an indoor radio cabinet, power cabinet or
frame, or battery frame or stand installation, installers should be familiar with these
practices. If there is a conflict, standard practices take precedence. However, this IP
takes precedence for identification of parts and materials specific to an indoor radio
cabinet.
Reason for reissue
This is Issue 4.0 of the Alcatel-Lucent CDMA Base Station 8420 Indoor Cabinet
Installation Manual, document number 401-703-444. This issue incorporates
information available as of November 2007.
In Issue 2, information was added about two new versions of the BTS 8420 radio
cabinet -- Filtered version and Low Power version. The previous or original release
covered only the Digital Only version. In this release the Filtered, and Low Power
versions were added. In addition, Appendix A was added, which covers 3GP24i and
EZBFi installation information for the non-integrated version of the BTS 8420 radio
cabinet.

About this information product
In Issue 3, information was added about a new configuration of the Digital Only
version the Digital Only version with two Digital Shelves. The weight and power
tables as well as the T1/E1 and User Alarm tables were updated. The Universal
Hatchplate figures were replaced with updated figures. Also, changes to EZBFi
material were made throughout the document.
In Issue 4, information about the EZBFi was removed. (From now on, refer to the
EZBFi Modular Battery System Installation Manual for +24V and -48V, 401-703-507,
when installing and connecting the EZBFi Modular Battery System.) Also, the Z-IDC
information was updated. (The Z-IDC is no longer required if the NIU is located
within the 10 meter (33 foot) cable length distance from the AWS 8420 or BTS 8420
radio cabinet.) In addition, information was added about the new AWS 8420 indoor
radio cabinet.
Intended audience
This IP is intended for use by Alcatel-Lucent installation technicians.
Systems supported
This document applies to Alcatel-Lucent CDMA Base Station 8420 indoor cell sites.
Conventions used
In this IP, all parts are described as they are shipped. Metric parts are specified in
metric units. Non-metric parts are specified in non-metric units.
Lengths and other measurements are given in metric units, with non-metric units given
as equivalents for use in non-metric markets.
For manufactured parts, the following system of conventions is used:
•
•
Metric sizes of nuts, bolts, flat washers, and lock washers are identified by an
uppercase letter M followed immediately by a size in millimeters (example: M10)
American fractional sizes of nuts, bolts, anchor bolts, and washers are identified by
a number followed immediately by a double apostrophe (example: 3/8″). In the
case of lengths measured in feet, ″2 feet″ is used rather than ″2’″ so that the single
apostrophe is not overlooked.
Wire gauges are specified in metric units. Equivalent sizes in the American Wire
Gauge (AWG) system are given in the following table.
Important! the measurement in millimeters in the following table is the
cross-sectional area of the wire.

of a power interruption.
The Alcatel-Lucent EZBFi battery frames and 3GP24i power cabinet are installed next
to the BTS 8420/AWS 8420 radio cabinet. The 3GP24i power cabinet provides +24
VDC and contains only the minimum number of batteries that are needed for battery
backup. The EZBFi battery cabinet contains additional batteries.
The customer has the option of supplying his own power cabinet and battery frames.
Battery backup requires N+1 rectifiers. Rectifier N+1 is provides redundancy and
additional power for charging the batteries.
EZBFi battery frame
The EZBFi battery frame is the standard backup power configuration for indoor
applications.
One or more EZBFi frames can be deployed and installed side-by-side to the right of
the BTS 8420 radio cabinet. The EZBFi battery frame is modular in design. The
frames can be stacked on top of each other. This gives the service provider the option
of installing as much battery back up as is needed.
The procedures for installing and connecting EZBFi battery frames are covered in the
EZBFi Modular Battery System Installation Manual for +24V and -48V, 401-703-507.

Backup power options
Each battery frame must include a battery base module, consisting of one battery shelf
and a DC distribution and fusing panel. The difference between a battery base module
and add-on battery modules is that the add-on battery modules do not include a DC
distribution and fusing panel. As its name implies, the DC distribution and fusing panel
provide the DC distribution buses required for power connection to the cabinet and
fusing protection, as well as the Power Alarm interface.
The Battery Base Module contains one battery shelf. Each add-on battery module
contains two battery shelves.
L1 100-Ah 12-VDC batteries are used in the EZBFi battery cabinet. The batteries are
connected in a series-parallel manner to provide 24 VDC.
