User Manual Part 3
Section GENERAL DESCRIPTION 1-1. INTRODUCTION This manual contains information and procedures for installation, operation, and maintenance of Powerwave’s Generation 3.1 amplifier system. The manual is organized into six sections as follows: Section 1. General Description Section 2. Installation Section 3. Operating Instructions Section 4. Principles of Operation Section 5. Maintenance Section 6. Troubleshooting 1-2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION The G3X-800 Series (NTL107AA) amplifier (figure 1-1) is a linear, feed-forward power amplifier that operates in the 25-MHz frequency band from 869 MHz to 894 MHz. The amplifier can simultaneously transmit multiple frequencies, with better than -65 dBc third order intermodulation distortion (IMD). The amplifier system is modular in design, and is ideally suited for use in AMPS/TDMA/CDMA base stations. The plug-in G3X-800 Series (NTL107AA) amplifier modules can each provide 110 watts of power and function completely independently of each other. The amplifier modules are designed for parallel operation to produce high peak power output and backup redundancy for remote applications. The system is housed in the MCR20XX Series (NTL107AC) subrack (figure 1-2) which holds two G3X-800 Series (NTL107AA) amplifiers to produce up to 200 watts output. All solid-state, the system is designed to provide trouble-free operation with minimum maintenance. The system's modular construction and unique and highly effective LED-based operational status and fault indicators help minimize downtime. The turn-on and turn-off sequences of voltages are fully automatic, as is overload protection and recycling. Inadvertent operator damage from front panel manipulation is virtually impossible. Notice To comply with FCC regulations, no channels existing within 200 kHz spacing from the edges of any frequency block are to be used for transmission. The MCR20XX Series (NTL107AC) subrack contains an RF power splitter/combiner and a control module that monitors the functional status of all plug-in amplifiers. The rear panel of the subrack has the system RF I/O connectors and DC power input terminals. The front panel of each amplifier module has unit level status/fault indicators and a power on/off circuit breaker. Primary power for the amplifier system is +27 Vdc. Cooling for each plug-in amplifier module is provided by two fans mounted on the front and two on the rear of the module. The fans draw outside air through the front of the module and exhaust hot air out through the rear of the module. 044-05055 Rev. A 1-1 1-3.
