RF configurations
Physical RF connections
The RF capacity is measured in sectors, bandwidth carriers, and RF signal power. The RF
capacity determines what components appear in the cabinet and what antenna connections
are required.
The lightRadio cabinet accepts connections for:
• Up to 18 RF antenna cables
• Up to 12 RRH for distributed systems
• One GPS antenna cable (optional)
RF configurations
The following RF configurations are supported.

Notes:
1. The table provides potential hardware assets that are known to be compatible with the cabinet’s constraints.
2. Starting with LR13.W, a new feature will enable operators to stack two logical NodeBs inside the same 9926
d4U in order to provide higher signaling capacity than what can be currently offered. Two controllers (one
per NodeB) will be plugged inside the 9926 d4U and all the modems will be shared between the controllers.
The hosting of these two NodeBs implies that the both NodeBs are equipped with GigE MDA eCCM-U
controllers and eCEM-U or xCEM-U modems (xCCM-U controller as well as 4E1 MDA configuration are
not supported with the dual-nodeB feature). Both controllers will be hosting their own Iub backhaul
termination as well as their own CPRI interfaces towards the remote equipments (TRDU or RRH). The
NodeBs are independent except some interworking mechanism for OAM purpose.

Grounding and surge protection requirements

Cabinet grounding requirements
The radio cabinet cell site must be grounded with an integrated (multipoint) grounding
system. The equipment is susceptible to lightning surges due to its association with
towers and antennas. Therefore, it is imperative the cell site be properly grounded and
that a low impedance path to earth (10 ohms or less) is provided. The grounding
conductors must be as straight and short as possible. No sharp bends or loops are
permitted in grounding conductors.
Important! The equipment warranty can be voided if the guidelines detailed in the
National Electric Code (NFPA 70), the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I (CSA C22.1),
or the local electrical code in effect, as well as the Standard for Installation of
Lightning Protection System (NFPA 780)and Grounding and Lightning Protection
Guidelines for Wireless System Cell Sites, 401-200-115, are not followed.
Important! All grounding system material (cable, connectors, buses, etc.) must be of
high quality materials that resist deterioration and require little or no maintenance.
Antenna grounding and surge protection devices

Commercial AC power cell site facilities are susceptible to lightning surges and must be
properly protected. An appropriate surge protection device must be installed at the service
entry point and be connected directly to the grounding electrode system.
The RF and GPS antenna coaxial cables are also susceptible to lightning surges and must
be protected.
A surge protection device should be installed between each antenna coaxial cable and
jumper cable. The GPS and RF surge protector can be obtained from Alcatel-Lucent
(KS24577, L-3A for GPS and KS24577, L-9A for RF), or an approved equivalent.
The surge protectors must be bonded to a nearby ground bus bar that is connected directly
to the grounding electrode system at two points.
The antenna cable shield must be bonded at the top of the tower near the antenna, and at
the bottom of the vertical run. If the tower is too high, the antenna cable shield must be
bonded at approximately 30-meter (100-feet) intervals. The tower or metallic support for
the antenna must also be bonded to the grounding electrode system. Refer to the
following page for more details on surge protector requirements.

Grounding electrode system requirements
The cell site must be equipped with a grounding electrode system (that is, buried ring
ground, copper clad rod, electrolytic rods, metallic water pipe, etc.). The cell site
grounding, including all cabinets and antenna cable shields, must be bonded to the
grounding electrode system.
The grounding electrode system shall be installed as part of site preparation with a
sufficient number of pigtails. Electrically conductive materials in the vicinity that are
likely to become energized must be connected together and to the grounding electrode
system in a manner that establishes an effective ground-fault current path.
Buried ground conductors must be, at a minimum, 16 mm2 (#6 AWG) bare, solid, tinned
copper wire. Exterior ground conductors must be, at a minimum, 16 mm2 (#6 AWG)
either solid, bare, tinned copper or stranded, insulated (outdoor insulation to be
sunlight-resistant) copper cable.
Exothermic weld
Exothermic weld is recommended for grounding connections where practical. All
below-grade connections must be exothermically welded. Compression type, two-hole
(0.75-inch center) lugs or double crimp "C" taps are acceptable for above-ground
connections. The contact area where connections are made shall be prepared to a bare
bright finish, and be coated with an anti-oxidation material before connections are made.

Power requirements (general)

Scope
NOTICE
All AC wiring and over-current protection must be installed in accordance with the
National Electric Code (NFPA 70), the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I (CSA C22.1), or
the local electrical code in effect.
An appropriate equipment ground connection is required before commercial AC service
can be connected to any equipment at the site.
This section specifies the DC power and power system alarm interface requirements for
the cabinet equipment. Specifically DC power, DC feeder quantity, recommended DC
feeder wire gauge, and DC feeder circuit breaker type/rating. Some additional
information is included on power feeder connections and alarm connections to the
cabinets. This section provides information on the quality and characteristics of the DC
power to be supplied to the 9712 lightRadio cabinet.
The power systems must provide rectification of commercial AC power to a nominal -48
VDC to power the modular assemblages and float charge the backup batteries. The power
systems must provide uninterrupted DC power to the lightRadio cabinet. In the event of
loss of AC input power, the power system must continue to provide DC power for the
duration of the battery reserve.
the DC power system needs to be able to provide 4 kW to the lightRadio cabinet.
Designing a system that cannot support the fully configured system will limit the
potential for future growth. This section is intended for use by a customer specifying, a
power system, other than the standard Alcatel-Lucent power systems.
By meeting these requirements, all Alcatel-Lucent equipment referenced in this section
should meet their electrical and RF performance specifications.
Standard reference document

Alcatel-Lucent strongly recommends the power system meet all applicable requirements
specified in the following documents. The appropriate requirements must be selected
from the documents listed in the table below, based on the "country of use." In addition,
adherence to all additional requirements mandated by the "country of use" is the
PRELIMINARY
customer's responsibility. The power system must meet the specified CSA and FCC

Transient surge protection
The DC power system shall be designed to prevent surge transients at its input passing
through to the output and causing voltage transient in excess of -60 Volts (for -48 V DC
systems) to the 9712 lightRadio cabinet(s). Adequate transient surge protection shall be
provided for the DC feeders by running the feeders from the power system to equipment
inside properly grounded metallic conduit. In addition, surge protectors and/or surge
suppressors may be required to limit surge voltages to -60 Volts (for -48 V DC systems).
If external surge protection is required to meet this limit, it should be installed near the
DC Terminal Block of the 9712 lightRadio cabinet.
DC power grounding
The -48 VDC return conductors shall be bonded to the frame ground system at the output
of the DC power system. For proper site grounding of the equipment, refer to Grounding
and Lightning Protection Guidelines for Alcatel-Lucent Network Wireless System Cell
Sites, 401-200-115.
DC power system alarms

Each alarm generated by the power system shall be provided by a set of isolated dry relay
contacts, an "alarm state" may be indicated by a "closed circuit" or an "open circuit". If an
alarm condition is indicated by a "closed circuit", the DC power system alarm contacts
shall present a contact closure when the alarm circuit fails or looses power. If an alarm
condition is indicated by a "open circuit", the DC power system alarm contacts shall
present an "open circuit" when the alarm circuit fails or looses power. The resistance of a
"closed circuit" shall be less than 100 ohms. The resistance of an "open circuit" shall be
greater than 1 mega ohms. The table on the next page also provides power system alarm
assignments and connection points for the 9712 lightRadio cabinet.
The 9712 lightRadio cabinet software configuration must be programmed to report an
"open circuit" or "closed circuit" for an alarm condition. (The 9712 lightRadio cabinet
software is configured for a "contact closure" for power system alarms. A software
change to the User Alarm definitions is required to announce a power system an "open
circuit" as an alarm condition). Therefore, each specific power alarm function maintains
its identity throughout the network and can not be used for any other purpose.
The following table lists the recomended minimum alarm functions for the power system.

GPS antenna installation (general)

Site selection
The GPS antenna installation site should be selected such the maximum aggregate of all
blockages above the 10-degree mask angle, such as buildings or mountains, does not
exceed 25 percent of the surface area of a hemisphere around the GPS antenna. This
blockage should not be in one contiguous quadrant of the hemisphere. Each contiguously
blocked quadrant should be less than 12.5 percent of the sphere's surface area.
The following diagram shows the mask angle definition for the GPS antenna.
Important! Do not install the GPS antenna directly under structures that may
accumulate or shed snow or ice.
It is desirable the antenna has the clearest view to the south, east, and west in the
northern hemisphere and to the north, east, and west in the southern hemisphere.

Obstructions and interference
The following types of obstructions and possible sources of interference need to be
considered:
• Hills, mountains, trees and surrounding plant life.
• Adjacent buildings or any large sky obstructing structures such as grain elevators,
airplane hangers, bridges, overhead roadways, etc.
• Water towers or any close range large metal objects that could cause excessive sky
obstruction.
• Any locations where birds or animals may easily nest or build on or around the
antenna.
• Any collocated RF transmission antennas, TV stations, cable television cables, or
arc-welding equipment.
• High-voltage lines will not cause interference with GPS signal reception.
• Self-supporting or guyed towers will generally not block the GPS signal.
• Trees do not totally block but rather degrade GPS reception, especially during periods
of heavy rain or snow. Consider if increased summer plant life could also become a
problem.
• If a GPS antenna is mounted to a monopole antenna mast, it must be mounted a
minimum distance (D) from the monopole such that less than 12.5% of a contiguous
surface area of a hemisphere around the antenna is blocked by the monopole. The
GPS antenna must be spaced a minimum distance D = 1.61 x R (where R is the radius
of the monopole at the attachment point of the GPS antenna), from the outside surface
of the monopole.
Example:
Monopole radius (inches) R = 12
D = (1.61 x 12)
D = 19.3" minimum
This example assumes, of course, the monopole is the only obstruction to be considered,
and constitutes a contiguous 12.5 percent blockage of the sky. This condition would
constitute a contiguous blockage in one quadrant of the hemisphere.

RF interference considerations
RF interference considerations
The GPS antenna installation site should be chosen such that it is not in a direct radiation
pattern of the site transmit antennas, and situated such that no other antennas, microwave
transmit dishes, and other sources of RF radiation that could affect GPS reception are in
close proximity. The GPS antenna should not be located within 3 meters (10 feet)
horizontally and 3 meters (10 feet) vertically from any actively transmitting antenna.

Lightning interference consideration

Lightning considerations
Industry standard practices for lightning protection should be followed for GPS antenna
installations. Several sources for such information are:
• Grounding and Lightning Protection Guidelines for Alcatel-Lucent Network Wireless
System Cell Sites, 401-200-115
• National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) "Lightning Protection Code # 78"
• Poly Phaser Corporation "The "Grounds" for Lightning and EMP Protection" Second
Edition by Roger R. Block.
The GPS antenna should be installed such that it is not the highest point in an installation
(The GPS antenna must not be a lightning rod!). The GPS antenna must be within the
"protective cone" (see the following figure) of any grounded structure such as an antenna
tower or ancillary lightning rod. The "protective cone" is the area between the
circumference of a circle with a 45.7-meter (150-foot) radius that tangentially touches the
ground and the side or top of a grounded structure and the ground or structure.
Protective cone installation

The following diagram shows the GPS antenna installed within the protective cone.

Important! The percentage of protection for the shaded zone is 96 percent.
Lightning rod installation

If the GPS antenna is mounted to the side of an antenna tower above the 45.7-meter
(150-foot) point, then horizontal lightning rods must be employed such that the antenna is
within the area of a 45.7-meter (150-foot) sphere that touches both lightning rods, as
shown in the following diagram.
PRELIMINARY
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
In addition, the antenna cable shield shall also be bonded at one point minimum near the
equipment and/or hatchplate, provided that the GPS antenna is installed in the zone of
protection with short (less than 18.3 meters (60 feet)) coaxial cable.
Important! If the coaxial cable run along the tower is more than 18.3 meters (60
feet), then coaxial cable shield is to be grounded at multiple points near the antenna
and the equipment and/or hatchplate at every 30.5 meter (100 feet) interval.
Preventing arc-over between structures and antenna

If the GPS antenna is mounted on a separate pole or structure of height (H) near an
antenna tower or other grounded structure, and the distance (D) from the pole or structure
to the tower or other grounded structure is less than the height of the pole divided by six
(H/6), then the pole or structure and the antenna tower must be bonded together eliminate
possible arc over during a lightning strike.
PRELIMINARY
Example:
If the pole is 15.24 meters (50 feet) tall, then D=8.3 feet. (50/6 = 8.3).
