Foreword
The OptiX RTN 600 radio transmission system is a split-mount

digital microwave transmission system developed by Huawei
The maximum microwave transmission capacity are 2 STM-1s.
The OptiX RTN 600 provides various service interfaces and

features flexible configuration and easy installation. The OptiX
RTN 600 can construct a radio transmission network that serves
as backhaul links for mobile communication networks or private
networks.
The OptiX RTN 600 can also construct a hybrid network that is
used to transmit SDH, PDH, and Ethernet services together with
the OptiX series optical transmission products of Huawei.
Objectives
Upon completion of this course, you will be able to:

Describe the main characteristics of OptiX RTN 600.
Describe the system structure, functions and application of every

units.
List all the protection modes which supported by OptiX RTN 600.
Configure the OptiX RTN 600 equipment for all types of the network
application.
Explain the functions of AM and Hybrid Microwave

IF Cable
Three types of IF cable in OptiX RTN 600:

IF jumper: connection between IDU and other IF cable.
1/2 inch and RG-8U cable: connection between ODU and IF jumper.
RG-8U cable is used for the distance less than 180 meter.
1/2 inch cable is used for the distance between 180m and 300m.
IF jumper
IF cable
ODU
Outdoor unit (ODU) realizes the

mutual conversion between IF
analog signal and RF signal.
ODU is irrelevant to the microwave

transmission capacity.
An ODU in OptiX RTN 600 can

support capacity from 4 E1s to one
STM-1.

Hybrid Coupler
When two ODUs share one antenna, the ODUs must be

connected to an RF signal coupler/ splitter (hybrid coupler). Then,
the hybrid coupler is connected to the antenna.

MW_RDI:
When this alarm is reported, it
means that the link is faulty and
consequently the peer end
receives error bits.
MW_LOF:
The performance of the microwave link
deteriorates.
The receive function of the local end fails.
The working modes of the ODUs in the local and
peer ends are different.
The working efficiency of the ODUs in the local
and peer ends are different.
All rights

Bit Errors
Handling process
The MW_RDI and MW_LOF alarms
are related to the link performance
deterioration
a new link is created and the

frequency interference occurs
between the new and existing links
After modify the receive and transmit

powers of the ODUs at the local and
peer ends, the problem is solved.
