DC feeders and connection interfaceEach BTS 8420/AWS 8420 radio cabinet requires three DC feeds. Refer to the table onthe next page for more details on BTS 8420 radio cabinet DC feeders.Alternate wire gauges may be used for the DC feeders, but shall be sized to limit theround trip voltage drop between the power system output terminals and the BTS8420/AWS 8420 radio cabinet input terminals to less than one volt (for +24 VDCsystems). A current level equal to 80% of the circuit breaker current rating specifiedshall be used for this calculation. The wire used for the DC feeders shall be rated forthe environmental condition in which it is used. The circuit breaker characteristics shallbe equivalent to Airpax Inc. model LEL/LML, circuit breakers with Type 51, DC tripdelay curve characteristics.The DC terminal block is located on top of the BTS 8420/AWS 8420 radio cabinet.(See figure on the next page).Alcatel-Lucent Recommends Class B stranded wire to interface with the DC strip andpoke (Phoenix) terminal block. Strip 1-inch of insulation from each DC cable andproperly insert into strip and poke terminal block (avoid crimping into the cableinsulation). Torque the nut on top of terminal block to 6 Nm (53 in-lb).The DC terminal connections may be damaged if the hardware is tightened more than15 Nm (132 in-lb).If Class I or finer stranded wire is used, a ferrule must be crimped to the wire beforeinserting into the strip and poke terminal block to avoid fraying, otherwise it maycause a short circuit and damage the connector. The installation DC feeders shall notbe performed in extremely cold temperature (-15 degrees C/-5 degrees F or less).DC feeders and the connection interface for the BTS 8420/AWS 8420 radiocabinetBTS8420/AWS8420 radiocabinetFeeders #1, #2, #3 Maximum wire size at DCterminal blockCircuitbreaker(AMPS)Wire size(AWG)Max.Length(Feet)+24 VDC 150 1/0 40 50 mm2 (1/0 AWG)Installing 3GP24i power cabinet, if applicablePre-installation instructions....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................A-10 Alcatel-Lucent - ProprietarySee notice on first page 401-703-444Issue 4, November 2007

A-35)“Description of battery compartment” (p. A-36)“Description of typical batteries” (p. A-37)Battery safety and precautionsYour understanding of the following information is important to ensure a proper andsafe installation of the batteries.CAUTIONTo batteries in this product can present a risk of high short circuit andfire. The following precautions should be observed when working onbatteries:•Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects•Use insulated tools•Wear rubber gloves and boots•Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery terminalsDANGERInjury to Personnel - Chemical BurnsThe batteries contain electrolyte (sulfuric acid and water), which can generatehydrogen gas, even under open circuit conditions. Extreme caution must be taken whenhandling batteries. Carefully follow all applicable procedures.WARNINGInjury to PersonnelLifting of the batteries by one person can result in a serious injury. Always use twopeople (or use a lifting device) to handle the batteries.Installing 3GP24i power cabinet, if applicable...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................401-703-444Issue 4, November 2007 Alcatel-Lucent - ProprietarySee notice on first page A-35
WARNINGHigh Energy hazardThe following procedures are the safest method to install and connect the batteries. Ifthese procedures are not followed in the exact sequence listed, a serious electricalenergy hazard will result. Ensure that loose cables cannot cause a short circuit. Sincethe batteries are charged, do not touch battery terminals or cross terminals with metalobjects. Do not remove the insulated cover from the battery terminals until you arepreparing to complete each connection.CAUTIONTo reduce the risk of fire or injury to persons, read and followthese instructions:•Use only batteries approved for use with this product. Refer to “Approvedbatteries” (p. A-38) for 3GP24i approved batteries and “Approved batteries”(p. A-38) for EZBFi approved batteries•Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. The cell may explode. Check with localcodes for possible disposal instructions•Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is corrosive and maycause damage to the eye and skin. It may be toxic if swallowed•Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the battery with conductivematerials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor mayoverheat and cause burns•Do not mix old and new batteries in this product.Description of battery compartmentTwo shelves are provided for batteries.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Alcatel-Lucent,Inc. could void the users authority to operate the equipment.FCC Part 1Pursuant to 47 CFR Part 1, Subpart I, all installations must be evaluated forrequirements contained in Table 1, “Limits for maximum permissible exposure,” insection 1.1310.FCC Part 2This device complies with Part 2, Subpart J - Equipment Authorization Procedures ofthe FCC rules.FCC Part 15This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to thefollowing two conditions:1. This device may not cause harmful interference.2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that maycause undesired operation.FCC part 15 class BThis equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class Bdigital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed toprovide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if notinstalled and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interferenceto radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will notoccur in a particular installation.If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouragedto try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.•Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.Product Conformance Statements...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................C-2 Alcatel-Lucent - ProprietarySee notice on first page 401-703-444Issue 4, November 2007
