All rights reserved. Powerwave Technologies and the Powerwave logo are registered trademarks. Powerwave Technologies Inc. reserves the right to make changes to documentation and equipment, including but not limited to component substitution and circuitry changes. Changes that impact this document may be subsequently incorporated in a later revision of this document. This Powerwave product is designed to operate within the Normal Operating (typical operating) ranges or conditions specified in this document. Operation of this equipment beyond the specified ranges in this document may cause (1) spurious emissions that violate regulatory requirements; (2) the equipment to be automatically removed from service when maximum thresholds are exceeded; or (3) the equipment to not perform in accordance with its specifications. It is the Operator's responsibility to ensure this equipment is properly installed and operated within Powerwave operating specifications to obtain proper performance from the equipment and to comply with regulatory requirements. The rated output power of a Nexus FT is for multiple carriers. As long as the composite power does not exceed the rated power (20W for North America), derating is not required for multiple carriers. For situations where regulatory requirements require reduced interference to adjacent band users, the rating would have to be reduced by 3 dB. This power reduction is to be by means of input power or gain reduction and not by an attenuator at the output of the device. Input power is rated at 115/230VAC, 50/60Hz, and should be protected based on the power and fuse specifications in Chapter 5 of this manual. Power strips should, at a minimum, conform to this requirement to prevent equipment damage and possible overload.

The associated icons in warnings and cautions are used to quickly identify a potential condition that could result in the consequences described below if precautions are not taken. Notes clarify and provide additional information to assist the user. WARNING: The warning symbol means danger. You are in a situation that could cause bodily injury or death. Before you work on any equipment, be aware of the hazards involved with electrical and RF circuitry and be familiar with standard practices for preventing accidents. CAUTION: The caution symbol means the potential exists for equipment damage or loss of data. NOTE: Notes contain helpful suggestions or references to material not covered in the document. Safety Any personnel involved in installation, operation, or service of units included in a Powerwave repeater system must understand and follow the points below: ❑ Powerwave Nexus FT Rack Mount Radios (RMR) are designed to receive and amplify signals from one or more base stations and retransmit the signals to one or more mobile stations. They also act the other way round, that is to receive signals from one or more mobile stations, then amplify and retransmit the signals to the base stations. Powerwave Nexus FT RMR systems must be used exclusively for this purpose and nothing else. ❑ Units supplied from the mains must be connected to grounded outlets and in conformity with the local prescriptions. ❑ Power supply units supplied from the mains contain dangerous voltage that can cause electric shock. Disconnect the mains prior to any work in such a unit. Local regulations are to be followed when servicing such units. Only authorized service personnel are allowed to service units while the mains are connected. ❑ All RF transmitting units, including Nexus FT RMRs, will generate radio signals and thereby give rise to electromagnetic fields that may be hazardous to the health of any person who is extensively exposed close to an antenna. Human Exposure to RF Radiation Safe distances must be kept when working around antennas. The following paragraphs describe the cautions to be aware of during the installation and maintenance of antenna systems and how to calculate safety distances needed for RF radiation at different antenna power and frequencies. Repeater Antennas To be able to receive and transmit signals, a repeater is connected to a donor antenna directed towards the base station and a service antenna directed towards the coverage area. A fiber optic cable from the base station might, however, be substituted for the donor antenna. Installation and Maintenance of Antenna Systems Installation and maintenance of all antenna systems must be performed with respect to the radiation exposure limits for public areas. The antenna radiation level is affected by the output power, antenna gain, and transmission devices such as cables, connectors, splitters and feeders. Also have in mind the system minimum coupling loss, typically between 25 dB and 35 dB, is determined by a standard with the purpose to protect base stations from noise and other performance dropping effects. 044-05326 Rev B vii Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Nexus FT RM RMR Radiation Exposure The World Health Organization (WHO) and International Commission on Non-Ionising Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) have determined recommendations for radiation exposure. ICNIRP recommends not to exceed the following radiation power for public exposure: Frequency Radiation power 800/900 MHz 1800/1900 MHz 2100 MHz 4.5W/m² 9.0W/m² 10.0W/m² For antennas larger than 20cm the maximum radiation power can be calculated by using the following formula: S= P/(4πr2) S = Radiation power in W/m² P = Output power in W r = Distance between antenna and human in meters Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) ESD can severly damage essential parts of the equipment if not handled carefully. Parts on Printed Circuit Board Assemblies (PCBA) as well as other parts in the equipment are sensitive to ESD. Never touch the PCBA or uninsulated conductor surfaces unless absolutely necessary. If you must handle the PCBAs or uninsulated conductor surfaces, use ESD protective equipment or first touch the chassis with your hand. Never let your clothes touch PCBAs or uninsulated conductor surfaces and always store PCBAs in ESD-safe bags. viii 044-05326 Rev B Chapter 1 Product Description Introduction This manual contains information and procedures for installation, operation, and maintenance of the Rack Mount Radio module as part of the Nexus FT Rack Mount Repeater. In this manual, the Nexus FT Rack Mount Radio is referred to as the RMR. The manual is organized into chapters as follows: ❑ Chapter 1- Product Description ❑ Chapter 2- Indicators ❑ Chapter 3- Installation ❑ Chapter 4- Maintenance ❑ Chapter 5- Specifications Scope of Manual This manual is intended for use by service technicians familiar with similar types of equipment. It contains required service information for the RMR and is current as of the printing date. Changes which occur after the printing date may be incorporated by a complete manual revision or alternatively as additions. Overview The RMR is a repeater designed to be part of a Distributed Antenna System (DAS). The components are mounted on a 19 in. rack and are intended for use in an indoor, temperature controlled environment. As part of a DAS, the RMR extends coverage into uncovered areas in wireless mobile systems such as base station fringe areas, tunnels, convention centers, airports, and buildings. It receives, amplifies, and transmits signals to/from a Base Transceiver Station (BTS) and to/from Mobile Stations (MS). The RMR unit is a dual wide band, bi-directional, RF amplifier with two separate donor ports and a common (duplexed) service port per band. It connects to aFiber Base Distribution Unit (FBU) that combines, splits and converts RF signals to an optical signal in the Uplink (UL) direction. In the Downlink (DL) direction, the FBU converts optical signals to RF signals and splits the signal to RF outputs. Two separate full-duplex fibers handle signal transport between the BTS Master Unit and the FBU. See the Fiber Base Unit Installation and Service Manual (part number 044-05348) for more details. The DL signal and the UL signal combine onto one optical fiber through a Wavelength Division Multiplexer (WDM). Wideband 4-way combiners handle RF splitting and combining. The UL output signal is connected to the FBU via RF coax cable, converted to light, and sent via fiber toward the BTS. A Wireless Portal module distributes the DL/UL signals to/from the DAS. The RMR is microprocessor controlled with alarm and operational status LEDs visible on the front. Cooling is provided through forced air fans. Operational parameters are set using a PC running Powerwave OM-Online software which communicates with the RMRs through the FBU or through a system solution. Remote operation can be accomplished via Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) or a GSM net. The Operation and Maintenance System (OMS) provides for Network Operations Center (NOC) configuration and alarm monitoring. 044-05326 Rev B 1-1 Rack Mount Radio module (RMR) Nexus FT RMR Cabinet Design The Nexus FT RMR modules are intended to be mounted in a 482 mm (19 in) cabinet at least 600 mm (23 in) deep, similar to the one shown Figure 1-1.I Typical RMR position Figure 1-1 Powerwave Nexus FT RM rack- fully equipped Rack Mount Radio module (RMR) RMRs can handle multiple carriers over a wide band.

Table 4-2 Alarm Troubleshooting ID Alarm Text Power 044-05326 Rev B Alarm Unit PSM Alarm Description Critical PSM does not work properly. A sum signal from the PSM indicates that at least one voltage output has dropped. If no mains breakdown relay is used, then the alarm will also be sent at mains breakdown Ceasing PSM. Ceasing is sent if the PSM works at start-up, and there is a corresponding critical PSM alarm logged in the Events log. The RMR will restart when the power is back and this alarm will be sent Ceasing The cause of the alarm has ceased 4-1 Troubleshooting Nexus FT RMR Table 4-2 Alarm Troubleshooting (Continued) ID Alarm Text RMR restart Mains breakdown Alarm Unit CU External Alarm Description None Power on start, or user ordered reboot. Logged to indicate a normal power up, or a restart ordered by the operator Warning Software error restart, 1st – 7th time. Restart 1st to 7th time during a 14 day period. The counter is reset every 14th day, counted from power up Error Software error restart 8th – 10th time. Restart 8th to 10th time during the 14 day period. At the 11th time, the SW bank will be blocked and not used anymore until a user ordered reset is performed, or power is switched off/on Critical The mains power is gone. Used with an external relay indicating mains breakdown. The external relay should be connected to External Alarm 1 and the RMR configured to indicate this alarm. If no relay is used, a mains breakdown will be reported as a PSM fault Ceasing The mains power is back. Sent if there is a corresponding critical mains breakdown alarm logged in the Events Log. The RMR will restart when the power is back Alarm reset CU None Alarm reset by the user. All alarms are reset. The cause of the alarm will be re-evaluated and reported, if still active Local bus error WBA #, MCPA# Error Error when communicating on the bus. The CU has no contact with the WBA, or MCPA PCBA, which is taken out of service Main bkd w backup External Error Used to indicate that the mains is no longer available.

The battery for the RAM on the CU PCBA has a voltage outside the normal 2.7 to 3.5 Volt. An alarm may be initiated at start-up if the RMR has been stored out of power for a long time. Suggested remedy: Ensure jumper P3 on the CU PCBA is mounted to charge the battery Ceasing The cause of the alarm has ceased 16 SW load error CU Error Software load error. An error has occurred during a software load process. The flash memory does not contain a proper software. Suggested remedy: Check the CU software using the OM-Online SW Manager. Do NOT restart the RMR 17 Log cleared CU None Log memory has been cleared. The check sum in the Events Log memory is faulty. The log is cleared. Can be caused by a bad RAM battery backup or low voltage to the RAM 18 RTC restarted CU None The time is changed by the operator (logged to keep track of changes made to the RTC) Warning Time reset to 1994-01-01. The RTC was unable to keep track of the time and did a reset. Suggested remedy: Ensure jumper P3 on the CU PCBA is mounted to charge the battery Error RTC does not operate. The CU has detected an error in the RTC operation which makes the time unreliable. Suggested remedy: Replace the CU PCBA Config The door has been open 30 seconds without disabling the alarm Ceasing The door has been closed 30 seconds, or the alarm is disabled Config External alarm input EA1 active more than 1 second Ceasing External alarm input EA1 no longer active Config External alarm input EA2 active more than 1 second Ceasing External alarm input EA2 no longer active Config External alarm input EA3 active more than 1 second Ceasing External alarm input EA3 no longer active Config External alarm input EA4 active more than 1 second Ceasing External alarm input EA4 no longer active None Invalid RMR password Error The backup battery on the RCU or the FON PCBA does not work properly.
