3.2 BTS3900A (Ver.D) Configured with RFUs but Without RRUs

When only RFUs are configured, a BTS3900A supports different cabinet configurations in 110 V AC, 220 V AC, or -48 V DC power supply scenarios.
Cabinet Configuration Principles

Maximum configuration principles for a single site l l A BTS3900A site can be configured with a maximum of 12 RFUs. A BTS3900A site can be configured with a maximum of two cabinet combinations (one cabinet combination consists of one APM30H and one RFC). The two cabinet combinations must be installed side by side with a clearance of 40 mm (1.57 in.) between them. When a site is configured with more than six RFUs and only one IBBS200D or IBBS200T, the IBBS200D or IBBS200T must be configured with at least two battery packs consisting of 92 Ah storage batteries to avoid overcurrent of a single battery pack during the discharging.
Principles for stacking and combining cabinets

An IBBS200D or IBBS200T can be stacked only with an IBBS200D, IBBS200T, or TMC11H. When the IBBS200D or IBBS200T is stacked with the TMC11H, the TMC11H is stacked on the IBBS200D or IBBS200T. An RFC can be stacked only below the APM30H or TMC11H. If auxiliary cabinets, such as the battery cabinet IBBS200D/IBBS200T or transmission cabinet TMC11H, are required during an initial site construction, the auxiliary cabinets are positioned on the left side of basic cabinets. If both the battery cabinet and transmission cabinet are required, the battery cabinet is positioned on the left side of the basic cabinet, and the transmission cabinet is stacked on the battery cabinet or positioned on the left side of the battery cabinet. During an initial site construction, space must be reserved for capacity expansion. Unless otherwise stated, the original cabinets remain in the original positions and new cabinets are added to the right side of original cabinets during capacity expansion. In a special scenario, new cabinets can be added to the left side of original cabinets. A cabinet combination of one APM30H and one RFC is configured with one BBU by default. This cabinet combination can be configured with a maximum of two BBUs, and the power consumption of all BBU boards cannot exceed 1000 W. This principle applies to a new or expansion scenario.
l l
Cabinet Configurations of a Single- or Dual-Mode BTS3900A

A single- or dual-mode base station is configured with only one BBU, which is installed in the APM30H or TMC11H. When seven to twelve RFUs are configured, two RFCs are required. When a site is supplied with 110 or 220 V AC power and does not require backup power, the cabinet configurations of a single- or dual-mode base station with different requirements of space for customer equipment and carrier configurations are shown in the following figure.

3.3 BTS3900A (Ver.D) Configured with RFUs and RRUs

When RFUs and RRUs are configured, a BTS3900A supports different cabinet configurations in 110 V AC, 220 V AC, or -48 V DC power supply scenarios.
Cabinet Configuration Principles

l A single BTS3900A can be configured with a maximum of six RFUs and nine RRUs. Therefore, deploy more than one site if the RFUs and RRUs to be configured exceed the maximum configuration. When a BTS3900A is configured with RFUs and RRUs, the maximum configuration of RRUs is six RRUs of 2x60 W and three RRUs of 2x40 W.

3.4 Installation Clearance Requirements

The installation of the BTS3900A is classified into three scenarios: a single cabinet is installed alone, two cabinets are installed side by side, and two cabinets are stacked. When two cabinets are installed side by side, the clearance between them must range from 40 mm (1.57 in.) to 150 mm (5.91 in.). If a noise reduction module (NRM) is required, the minimum clearance between two cabinets is 300 mm (11.81 in.). The following figure shows the clearance requirements for the APM30H, TMC11H, RFC, and IBBS200D/IBBS200T configured at a BTS3900A site.
NOTE
The three cabinets in the following figure may be an RFC, a TMC11H, and an IBBS200D. The installation clearances for an IBBS200T are the same as the installation clearances shown in the preceding figure, but its planform is different from any of the three cabinets in the preceding figure.

12.1 Cabling Requirements

Cables must be laid out according to the specified cabling requirements to prevent signal interference.
NOTE
If a cable listed below is not required, skip the cabling requirements of the cable.
General Cabling Requirements

Bending radius requirements l l The bending radius of a 7/8'' feeder must be greater than 250 mm (9.84 in.), and the bending radius of a 5/4'' feeder must be greater than 380 mm (14.96 in.). The bending radius of a 1/4'' jumper must be greater than 35 mm (1.38 in.). The bending radius of a super-flexible 1/2'' jumper must be greater than 50 mm (1.97 in.), and the bending radius of an ordinary 1/2'' jumper must be greater than 127 mm (5 in.). The bending radius of a power cable or PGND cable must be at least three times its diameter. The bending radius of a fiber optic cable is at least 20 times of its diameter, and the bending radius of a breakout cable is at least 30 mm (1.18 in.). The bending radius of an E1/T1 cable must be at least three times its diameter. The bending radius of a signal cable must be at least five times its diameter.
l l l l
Cable binding requirements l l l l l l Cables of the same type must be bound together. Different types of cables must be separately laid out and bound, with a minimum distance of 30 mm (1.18 in.) from each other. The cables must be bound tightly and neatly. The sheaths of the cables must not be damaged. The cable ties must face the same direction, and those at the same horizontal line must be in a straight line. The excess of the indoor cable ties is cut off. The excess of 5 mm (0.197 in.) of the outdoor cable ties is reserved, and the cut surfaces are smooth without sharp edges. After cables are installed, labels or nameplates must be attached to the cables at their ends, curves, and interconnection positions.
Security requirements l l l When routing cables, avoid sharp objects, for example sharp edges on the wall. If necessary, use tubes to protect the cables. When routing cables, keep the cables away from heat sources and use heat insulation materials to insulate the cables from the heat sources. Reserve a proper distance (0.1 m or 3.937 in. is recommended) between equipment and cables especially at the cable curves to protect the cables and equipment.
Indoor cabling requirements l

Issue 02 (2013-08-01)
Route each cable into the room through the feeder window.
Reserve drip loops for all cables outside the feeder window before routing them into the room. Ensure that the radiuses of the drip loops are greater than or equal to the minimum bending radiuses of the cables. When routing a cable into the room, ensure that a person is assisting you in the room. Apply waterproof treatment to the feeder window.
l l
Outdoor Cabling Requirements

l l l Protect outdoor cables against potential damage. For example, put the cables through tubes. The cables to be protected include AC power cables, transmission cables, and cables laid out underground. When routing cables through tubes on the ground below the cabinet, put a 30 mm to 50 mm (1.18 in. to 1.97 in.) length of the tubes into the base of the cabinet but do not put the tubes into the cabinet. Use waterproof tape or waterproof silicon gel to block both ends of the tubes and use sheet metal tabs to secure the tubes to the cable holes in the base. When routing cables through tubes along a metal cable trough below the cabinet, do not put the tubes into the base of the cabinet but cover the cable trough and connect the tubes to the cable holes in the base. Use clips to secure cables outdoors. For the method of installing a clip, see the installation guide delivered with the clip. Arrange cables neatly along the routing direction and use clips to secure the cables. Determine the positions where the clips are installed according to the actual situation. For example, 7/8" feeders are secured with clips at an interval of 1.5 m to 2 m (4.92 ft to 6.56 ft), CPRI fiber optic cables and power cables are secured with clips at an interval of 1 m to 1.5 m (3.28 ft to 4.92 ft). Ensure that the clips are evenly spaced and in the same direction. When fastening cables with a clip, ensure that the cables are routed through the holes in the clip and arranged neatly and straightly. Do not stretch the cables too tightly.
NOTE
l l l
There are two types of clips: 3-hole clip and 6-hole clip, which are described as follows: l l A 3-hole clip is shown by illustration a in the following figure. It is often used to fasten feeders. A 6-hole clip is shown by illustration b in the following figure. It is often used to fasten power cables and CPRI fiber optic cables.

Special Cabling Requirements

Cabling of power cables l l l Power cables must be installed in the position specified in engineering design documents. If the length of power cables is insufficient, replace the cables rather than adding connectors or soldering joints to lengthen the cables. Cables can only be laid out under well-planned instructions. The cabling activities of fiber optic cables are allowed only when qualified personnel and communication facilities are available. Do not circle and twist cables.
l
Issue 02 (2013-08-01)
l l
After routing a DC power cable onto the platform on a tower, route it along the shortest path to the rails surrounding the platform, and route it along the inside of the rails. After routing a DC power cable close to the equipment on a tower, use clips to secure the power cable onto a pole or the rails surrounding the platform. Ensure that there is no excessively long distance between the equipment and the position where the power cable is secured.
Cabling of PGND cables l l l PGND cables for a base station must be connected to the same group of ground bars. PGND cables must be buried in the ground or routed indoors. The external conductor of the coaxial wire and the shield layer of the shielded cable must have proper electrical contact with the metal surface of the equipment to which they are connected. PGND cables and signal cables must be installed separately. A certain distance must be reserved between them to prevent interference from each other. Switches or fuses must not be installed on the PGND cables. Other devices must not be used for electrical connections of the PGND cables. All the metal parts in the housing of the equipment must be reliably connected to the ground terminal.
l l l l
Cabling of E1 cables l E1 cables must not cross power cables, PGND cables, or RF cables when laid out. If transmission cables are laid out with power cables, PGND cables, or RF cables in parallel, the spacing between them must be greater than 30 mm (1.18 in.). E1 cables are laid out straightly and bound neatly with cable ties. Sufficient slack is provided for E1 cables at turns. E1 cables must not be pressed by the door of the cabinet when routed, as shown in the following figure. Figure 12-4 E1 cables routed in the cabinet
l l l
Cabling of fiber optic cables l At least three persons are required for laying out fiber optic cables. The cabling activities of fiber optic cables are allowed only when qualified personnel and communication facilities are available.

The operating temperature of fiber optic cables ranges from -40C to +60C (-40F to +140F). If the actual temperature is beyond this range, take protective measures or select another route. Do not circle and twist cables. Do not bind a fiber optic cable at the position where it bends. Do not stretch, step on, or place heavy objects on fiber optic cables. Keep the fiber optic cables away from sharp objects. When fiber optic cables are routed, the excess of the fiber optic cables must be coiled around special devices, such as a fiber coiler. An unarmored fiber optic cable must be bound using binding straps. If a fiber optic patch cord needs to be secured in a cabinet or a piece of equipment, use binding straps to bind it and then use cable ties to secure the binding straps to the cabinet or equipment. Ensure that the fiber optic cables can flexibly move in the cable ties. Do not bend the fiber optic cables sharply. The following figure shows how to bind the fiber optic cables correctly. Figure 12-5 Binding fiber optic cables

When coiling fiber optic cables, apply even strength. Do not bend the fiber optic cables with force. Unused optical connectors must be covered with dustproof caps. The fiber optic cables must not be pressed by the door of the cabinet when routed, as shown in the following figures. Figure 12-6 CPRI fiber optic cables routed in the cabinet (1)

After routing a fiber optic cable onto the platform on a tower, route it along the shortest path to the rails surrounding the platform, and route it along the inside of the rails. After routing a fiber optic cable close to the equipment on a tower, use clips to secure the fiber optic cable onto a pole or the rails surrounding the platform. Ensure that there is no excessively long distance between the equipment and the position where the cable is secured. Coil the excess of the fiber optic cables near the equipment on the tower before securing the cables on the tower.

12.7 (Optional) Installing the CPRI Electrical Cables

This section describes the procedure for installing CPRI electrical cables. A CPRI electrical cable connects an RFU and a BBU and transmits CPRI signals between them.
Context
l If boards and modules have been installed in a BTS3900A before delivery, the CPRI electrical cables are also installed in the APM30H or TMC11H and RFC before delivery. If a second RFC is required, you need to connect the CPRI electrical cables for it onsite. A 4 m (13.12 ft) CPRI electrical cable is recommended. The connections of CPRI electrical cables depend on the configurations of a base station. For details, see section "CPRI Cable Connections" in the 3900 Series Base Station Cables. This section describes the routing of CPRI electrical cables. This section describes the connections and routing of CPRI electrical cables in an AC scenario. The connections and routing of CPRI electrical cables are the same in AC and DC scenarios. This section describes the connections and routing of CPRI electrical cables for a BTS3900A (Ver.D). The connections and routing of CPRI electrical cables for the BTS3900A (Ver.B), BTS3900A (Ver.C), and BTS3900A (Ver.D) are the same.
l l
Procedure
Step 1 Remove dust-proof bags from the connectors at both ends of the CPRI electrical cables. Step 2 Insert the SFP connectors at one end of the CPRI electrical cables into the CPRI ports on the corresponding board in the BBU.
NOTE
For details about how to install or remove a CPRI electrical cable, see Inserting and Removing CPRI Cables.
Step 3 Route the other end of the CPRI electrical cables through the cable hole on the inner left side of the APM30H or TMC11H and the original RFC, into the extension RFC, and finally to the corresponding RFU, as shown in the following figure.
Issue 02 (2013-08-01)
235
Figure 12-91 Installing the CPRI electrical cables
NOTE
As shown in the preceding figure, yellow cables have been installed before delivery. Blue and green cables need to be installed onsite.
Step 4 Insert the SFP connectors at the other end of the CPRI electrical cables into the CPRI0 ports on the RFUs, as shown in Figure 12-91.
NOTE
l Wind and bind the redundant parts of CPRI electrical cables at the top of the DCDU-12A in the RFC or in the base of the RFC. l Lay out the cables according to the manners in Figure 12-91. Ensure that the cables are routed to the RFU through the cable bridge above the RFUs. l During the routing for the BTS3900A (Ver.B) and BTS3900A (Ver.C), bind the cables. Tie the cables on the binding bracket by leading the cable ties around the cable in a diagonal way to upper and lower cabling teeth. Ensure that the heads of all the cable ties are outside the cabling teeth, as shown in the following figure.
