4.4 ROU (Remote Optic Unit)
ROU consist of two unit which one is MRU(Main Remote Unit) and the other is ARU(Add on Remote
Unit). We simply called as ROU combination of MRU and ARU
MRU receives TX optical signals from ODU or OEU and converts them into RF signals. The converted
RF signals are amplified through High Power Amp in a corresponding RU, combined with Multiplexer
and then radiated to the antenna port.
When receiving RX signals through the antenna port, this unit filters out-of-band signals in a
corresponding RU and sends the results to Remote Optic Module to make electronic-optical
conversion of them. After converted, the signals are sent to a upper device of ODU or OEU.
MRU and ARU are composed of maximal dual band
The most difference of MRU an ARU is whether existence of optical module is in it or not

At the rear of BIU, Tx input and Rx output ports are seen for each MDBU. The name of all the ports
are silk printed as "#1, #2, #3 and #4." Referring to the table above, you need to feed correct signals
to input and output ports of corresponding MDBU.
Figure 5.4 – BIU RF interface diagram
For each port, TX signals and RX signals are separated from each other. You don't need to terminate
Confidential & Proprietary 60/116 SC-DAS
unused ports unless you want to.
BIU interface with Base station Transceiver
Basically, BIU has different TX and RX ports, and so, you have only to connect input and output ports.
Figure 5.5 – BTS interface directly
Through spectrum, you need to check signals sent from BTS TX. If the signals exceed input range (-
20dBm~+10dBm), you can connect an attenuator ahead of the input port to put the signals in the
input range.
BIU interface with Bi-Directional Amplifier
Basically, BIU is in Simplexer type; when you use BDA, you need to separate BDA signals from TX
and RX type.
Using either duplexer or a circulator, you can separate TX/RX signals of an external device from each
other.
Figure 5.6 –BDA Interface using Circulator
Confidential & Proprietary 61/116 SC-DAS
Figure 5.7 –BDA Interface using Duplexer
BIU interfaces with BDA in either of the methods above. In this case, you need to check TX input
range as well.
Given the TX input range (-20dBm~+10dBm/Total per port), make sure to see if the value is
in the input range, using Spectrum Analyzer, when you connect input ports.
Confidential & Proprietary 62/116 SC-DAS
5.1.4 MDBU insertion
MDBU is designed to let a MDBU be inserted into any slot.
BIU can be equipped with a total of four MDBUs. If only one MDBU is inserted into a slot with the
other slots reserved, you need to insert BLANK cards into the other slots.
If you do not terminate input and output ports of MCDU, which combines TX signals and
divides RX signals, it will cause loss and generation of spurious signals at the other party's band.
Given this, make sure to insert MDBU BLANK into slots of MDBU.
Confidential & Proprietary 63/116 SC-DAS
When MDBU is inserted into BIU, LED at the front panel will show the following information:

and RX output signals in current service without affecting main signals.
TX MON is -20dB compared with TX Input power and RX MON is -20dB as well compared with RX
Output power.
5.1.5 ODU Interface
BIU supports up to four ODUs per paths. At the rear of BIU, eight RF input and output ports for ODU
and four power ports for power supply and communication are provided. As you connect ODUs, BIU
recognizes ODU that is connected with BIU automatically

6.1.1 BIU
Figure 6.1 – SC-DAS Link budget for BIU
6.1.2 TX Operation at BIU
TX level to be sent to BIU should be in the range of -20dBm ~ + 10dBm. If the level exceeds the
range, you need to connect an attenuator with the front end of BIU input and adjust the level in the
corresponding range. Out of the range, maximal power cannot be outputted and so you need to
increase output power of BDA or adjust attenuation amount of BTS’s coupler or ATT to adjust the
level.
For signals of all bands, you need to check, using spectrum, if they are in an appropriate level before
making connection with input port of BIU and then check if there are spurious signals.
You need MDBU of a band you want to use. Insert the unit into BIU and check if it works normally.
For MDBU, up to two TX inputs are provided. Input level per port is -20dBm~+10dBm.

The DAS has an automatic shutdown function to protect the DAS itself and the wireless
network when the normal operational conditions cannot be maintained
The DAS shut down automatically when the composite power downlink output power is
above the values defined as average for the device for a period not to exceed 5seconds.
Criterion level is set through GUI
After automatic shutdown, the DAS may automatically turn-on in order to assess whether
the temporary condition has changed. If the condition is still detected, the DAS shall
shutdown again. These actions will be repeated 5 times
After 5time repetition, if the condition is still detected, the DAS will be shutdown
permanently. The following diagram shows the shutdown logic
Figure 7.1 –Shutdown logic diagram
After the retry logic exhausts itself, if the DAS still detected a fault status then the DAS
will shutdown permanently and illuminate the fault via visual fault indicator
Permanent shutdowns of the DAS will also be reported to the NOC through the NMS
7.2 Total Power Limit function (TX Output ALC)
In order to protect HPA and not to radiate spurious emission, output power don’t radiate
above defined value which operator set in advance. To execute this function, operator
should turn-on the ALC function and set limit level through GUI. If the output power exceed
above the defined value, output attenuator is adjusted to operate within defined value. The
output attenuator’s adjustment range is above 25dB. If output power decease, applied ATT
by AGC function return to initial ATT

7.3 Output power automatic setting function (TX Output AGC)
To provide convenience of setting output power at initial setup automatically, operator set
to wanting output level and turn-on the AGC function and then output power is
automatically set to defined level.
If AGC logic finished, logic operation results show on the result window of GUI. There are
three types of results as follows
1. Success: The AGS function is normally completed.
2. Not Opterate OPTIC Comp: Optic Comp is not executed.
3. Lack of ATT: There is no attenuation available.
If normal logic don’t executed, changed ATT return to initial ATT
Through output AGC function, can be checked whether optic compensation is executed or
not
7.4 Input power AGC function (TX Input AGC)
This function is to give convenience to operator when setting intial installation
Without spectrum analyzer, we can know input power value through power display window of
GUI. Use TX IN AGC function and automatically set internal ATT depending on input level.
ATT is automatically set based on -20dBm of input . The table below shows TX IN ATT
depending on TX IN POWER. For manual setting, you can set ATT depending on input
according to the table.
TX IN POWER TX IN ATT TX IN POWER TX IN ATT TX IN POWER TX IN ATT
-20dBm 0dB -9dBm 11dB +1dBm 21dB
-19dBm 1dB -8dBm 12dB +2dBm 22dB
-18dBm 2dB -7dBm 13dB +3dBm 23dB
-17dBm 3dB -6dBm 14dB +4dBm 24dB
-16dBm 4dB -5dBm 15dB +5dBm 25dB
-15dBm 5dB -4dBm 16dB +6dBm 26dB
-14dBm 6dB -3dBm 17dB +7dBm 27dB
-13dBm 7dB -2dBm 18dB +8dBm 28dB

7.5 Input power limit function (TX Input ALC)
The DAS has TX input ALC function at the BIU to limit level when input power is increased
above level by operated input AGC function
Normally, there are more than two input port in the MDBU of BIU
For example, 850cellular band has two input port to support both VzW and AT&T
Two input power may be different each other. The DAS have input attenuator in first stage
of MDBU. Through input AGC function, input ATT is adjusted according to input power. If
input power increase, input ATT is adjusted again to limit increased input power. Also, if
input power decrease input ATT return to initial ATT
7.6 Optical loss compensation
The DAS has the function of automatically compensating for optical loss. It can do the work
for up to 5dBo of optical loss. Set “TX OPTIC COMP” of ROU as "ON." Optical
compensation of ROU can not be made without communication with such units in upper
level as ODU or OEU. For 1dBo of optical loss, basic TX OPTIC ATT is 12dB; for 5dBo of
optical loss, TX OPTIC ATT is 4dB. OPTIC COMP works only one time before it stays
dormant.
The figure below shows a screen for OPTIC Information in ROU GUI.
LD POWER means output level of ROU Laser Diode, which is sent to a upper unit by ROU.
PD POWER means input level of Photo Diode to be received from a upper unit.

Figure 7.2 –Optical loss information
During optical compensation, the Result window shows "Processing" and then a result value.
There are three types of results as follows:
1. Success: The optical compensation is normally competed
2. Over Optic Loss: Generated optical loss exceed 5dBo or more.
3. Communication Fail: Communication with ROU is under poor condition.
