B 3, 4
C 5, 6
D 7, 8
E 9, 10

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
l For the TSOU board, all the 20 ports in one row are output ports.
l For the LCIM board (if dual LCIM boards are configured for board backup), the first
eight ports in one row are input ports.
l For the LCIM board (if only one LCIM board is configured), the first 16 ports in one
row are input ports. Each LCIM board occupies eight ports.
l For the TODI board, the first four ports in one row are input ports, and the rest 16 ports
are output ports.
Expansion Input Port

Expansion input ports are the ports through which the signals are directly input to the SRCU/
SOCU board. There are a total of 4 expansion input ports; any port supports E1 (2048 kbit/s),
2048 kHz, 10 MHz, 5 MHz, and 1 MHz signals. The SRCU or SOCU board can test the
synchronization status message (SSM), frequency deviation, TIE, MTIE, TDEV, and other
transmission parameters of the input signals.
If the expansion input port is configured, terrestrial clock signals can be input to the SRCU or
SOCU board directly without the LCIM board.
Expansion Output Port

Expansion output ports on an extended subrack receive the signals output by expansion output
ports on the master subrack. Generally, expansion ports 1A and 1B are used.
Expansion output ports 1A and 1B in extended subrack 1 are connected to expansion output
ports 1A and 1B in the master subrack.
Expansion output ports 1A and 1B in extended subrack 2 are connected to expansion output
ports 2A and 2B in the master subrack.
Ports 2A and 2B of first or second extended subracks can be connected to the third extended
subrack.
Maintenance Port
Maintenance ports include following ports:
l Console 1 and console 2: RS-232C serial ports that use the TL1 protocol. The functions
of these two serial ports are the same. They can be used at the same time. The
communication rate of the serial port is low, so the serial port is often used to query and
set the IP addresses of the device instead of managing and maintaining the device. By
default, the baud rate is 9600.
l LAN 1: Ethernet interfaces that use Telnet and TL1. Port LAN 1 is the recommended
maintenance port, and it is used to communicate with the NMS or the local terminal
during routine device management and maintenance.
l LAN 2: Reserved.
TOD Port
The TOD ports include the following:
l 1PPS/DCLS_In: 1PPS pulse signal input port, which can receive the 1PPS signals from
external time clock sources, such as GPS or cesium clock. The 1PPS signal can serve as

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
the external clock source of the SYNLOCK V3 or the second clock source of the time
synchronization.
l 1PPS/DCLS_Out1: 1PPS pulse signal output port. It can generate the 1PPS signal that is
synchronized with the universal time coordinated (UTC) when the SYNLOCK V3 has an
embedded GPS receiver.
l 1PPS/DCLS_Out2: DCLS signal output port. The DCLS is a time signal in a specific
format that is synchronized with the upper-stratum time sources (such as the GPS or
external time source) of the SYNLOCK V3. The DCLS signal can serve as the NTP time
reference of the SYNLOCK V3.
Alarm Indicator
There are Major, Minor and Normal indicators, which indicate major alarms, minor alarms,
and normal operations respectively. When the Major and Minor indicators blink, a critical
alarm has occurred.
Remote Alarm Port

The remote alarm port consists of the following components:
l Three pairs of cabinet alarm indicators

l One RS232 serial port
l Four pairs of status lines for the remote alarm switch
The status lines of the remote alarm switch are used to send alarm information through the
switch status (ON or OFF).
For Test (Reserved) Port

This port is reserved for testing and fault locating, and includes six ports. The meanings of the
ports are as follows:
l Src1: Current clock source signal of the left clock board. If the current clock source is
the line input signal, the Src1 signal is 8 kHz. If the current clock source is the satellite
signal, the Src1 signal is the 1PPS.
l Src2: Current clock source signal of the right clock board. For information on the signal
type, see the description of the Src1.
l Output 1: Output signal of the left clock board, which is 2048 kHz.
l Output 2: Output signal of the right clock board, which is 2048 kHz.
l Osc1: Local oscillator output signals of the left clock board, 10 MHz signal for the
SRCU, and 8.192 MHz signal for the SOCU.
l Osc2: Local oscillator output signals of the right clock board. For information on the
signal type, see the description of the Osc1.
-48V1 In/-48V2 In Port

-48V1 In and -48V2 In ports are two input channels of -48 V power supply.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Power Switch
The power switches are on the power protection module, and each controls two channels of
-48 V power supply. ON indicates that power supply is connected to the device and OFF
indicates that power supply is cut off.
Buzzer Switch
The buzzer switch controls the alarm sound. ON: volume on; OFF: volume off.
Grounding Terminal and ESD Jack

At the top right corner of the subrack is a grounding terminal and in the left bottom corner is
an ESD jack. The grounding terminal is a leading-out terminal of the protection ground of the
device. It must be connected to the protection ground of the telecommunications room
through special cables.

To facilitate fixing, the ground body should be a piece of metal in the shape of a board or
strip.
The feeder cable must be grounded indoors. You can ground it to the protection ground bar or
the cable ladder.
2.2.2 Antenna Installation Position

Different installation environments pose different requirements on the antenna installation
positions.
General Requirements
l It is recommended that you install the satellite antenna in an open place that has a wildest
view of the sky and there is no obstacle 10° above the horizon plane.
l Keep the antenna away from high buildings and accessory buildings on the roof.
l On the plane where the satellite antenna is installed, the larger the available area obtains
better signals. The antenna must have a vertical visual angle larger than 90°, as shown in
Figure 2-1.
l The antenna is located within the protected area of the lightning rod (within 45 degrees
downtilt angle of the lightning rod). The horizontal distance between the lightening rod
and the antenna is greater than 2 m, as shown in Figure 2-2.
l If multiple antennas need to be installed, the horizontal distance between each two
antennas must be greater than 0.5 m.
Figure 2-1 Location of the satellite antenna

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
(1) Surrounding obstacles (such as (2) Satellite antenna

buildings)
When there are obstacles such as tall buildings or hills nearby, adhere to the following
principles:
l Ensure that at least 50% of the total sky area is visible above the satellite antenna.
l Install the antenna on the south of the obstacle in the northern hemisphere and on the
north of the obstacle in the southern hemisphere.
l Install the antenna in the vicinity of a special lightning rod or the like. Keep the antenna
2 m or more away from the lightning rod.
l When installing the antenna on a tower, locate the antenna in the protection range of the
lightning rod. That is, the angle between the receiving end of the antenna and the
lightning rod or that between the connection line on the top of the tower and the vertical
line must be less than 45°. In areas prone to thunderstorms (more than 20 thunderstorm
days every year), the angle must be less than 30°.
NOTICE
Ensure that the antenna is not installed near any of the following objects:
l High-voltage power cable

l High-power transmitter
l Coverage area of microwave signals from a microwave antenna
l Strong radiation of a TV tower
l Intra-frequency interference (such as Wi-Fi) or strong electromagnetic interference
l Close-range radiation of the main lobe of the antenna for mobile communications
Location Requirements of the Satellite Antenna Installed on the Rooftop

Figure 2-2 shows the installation positions of a satellite antenna on the rooftop to receive
satellite signals in a more effective way. In Figure 2-2, positions 1, 2, 3, and 4 are preferred.
Installing a satellite antenna in position 5 or 6 is prohibited.
You must install the antenna within the coverage area of the lightning rod according to the
surge protection, as shown in Figure 2-2. Adhere to the following principles when you install
the satellite antenna on the rooftop:
l Install the antenna at the center of the rooftop rather than on the parapet around the
rooftop.
l Do not install the antenna at the corners of the rooftop, as the corners of the rooftop are
prone to be struck by lightning strikes.
l If there is a metal tower on the top of the building, do not install the antenna on the metal
tower.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Figure 2-2 Positions for installing a satellite antenna on the rooftop
Figure 2-3 shows the positions for installing a satellite antenna when a metal tower is
installed on the rooftop. In Figure 2-3, positions 1 and 2 are preferred. Installing a satellite
antenna in position 3 or 4 is prohibited.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Figure 2-3 Positions for installing a satellite antenna when a metal tower is on the rooftop
Location Requirement of the Pole-mounted Installation

In order for the antenna to properly receive satellite signals, ensure that:
The antenna must be mounted to the middle of a pole, instead of the top of a pole. Antennas
mounted to the top of a pole are prone to lightning strikes.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Location Requirements of the Satellite Antenna Installed in a Complex

Electromagnetic Environment
Adhere to the following principles when you install a satellite antenna in a complex
electromagnetic environment:
l The satellite antenna must be installed directly above the microwave antenna (if any) to
avoid the main lobe radiation from vertical or tilt transmission.
l If the satellite antenna cannot be installed in a high position, the satellite antenna must be
installed away from the microwave antenna. The spacing between two antennas must be
at least 10 times larger than the wavelength of the transmit signal.
l The satellite antenna must be installed away from the transmit direction of the round
satellite communication antenna (if any).
l If there is a receive antenna nearby, the satellite antenna must be installed away from the
receive antenna at a distance of at least one wavelength. For example, if there are two
satellite antennas to be installed nearby, the spacing between the two satellite antennas
must be 0.5 m or more.
l The satellite antenna must not be installed under the main lobe of a microwave antenna,
under high-voltage cables, or near a TV tower.
Figure 2-4 shows the positions for installing a satellite antenna when it is installed in a
complex electromagnetic environment. Positions 1, 2, 3, and 4 are preferred. Installing a
satellite antenna in position 5, 6, or 7 is prohibited.

environment
2.3 Checking the Construction Environment

The performance and lifespan of the SYNLOCK V3 depend on the environment of the
installation site. You must install the SYNLOCK V3 indoors. If it is used in an improper
environment, its performance deteriorates.
To ensure normal operation of the SYNLOCK V3 and extend its lifespan, the installation site
must conform to the following requirements.
2.3.1 Temperature and Humidity

The temperature and humidity in the telecommunications room must be kept within a certain
range.
l If the humidity inside the telecommunications room is higher than the specified range,
the insulation material can deteriorate, electricity leakage can occur, the mechanical
performance of the insulation material can change, or metal parts can get rusted easily.
l If the relative humidity is lower than the specified range, the insulation washers can
shrink, and the fastening screws can become loose. In addition, in a dry environment,
electrostatic discharge is generated frequently, which damages the complementary metal-
oxide-semiconductor transistor (CMOS) circuits on the SYNLOCK V3.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
l If the temperature is higher than the specified temperature, the reliability of the
SYNLOCK V3 declines greatly, and the high temperature over a long time shortens the
lifespan of the SYNLOCK V3, because very high temperature can accelerate the aging
of the insulation material.
The temperature and humidity requirements of the SYNLOCK V3 are listed in Table 2-2.
Table 2-2 Temperature and humidity requirements in the telecommunications room
Temperature Relative Humidity
—5°C-50°C 5%RH-95%RH
NOTE
The point where temperature and humidity values are taken is 1.5 meters above floor level and 0.4
meters in front of the cabinet when there is no protection board in either the front or back of the cabinet.
2.3.2 Cleanness
Dust can damage the SYNLOCK V3. When indoor dust accumulates on the equipment, it can
result in electrostatic attraction (especially when the indoor relative humidity is low) and can
cause poor contact in the electronic joints, which shortens the lifespan of the equipment and
leads to communication failure.
The restriction on the content and grain size of the dust in the telecommunications room is
listed in Table 2-3.
Besides dust, the SYNLOCK V3 can be damaged by salt, acid and sulfide contained in the air.
Harmful gas makes the metal rusty and some parts age quickly. Harmful gases such as SO2,
H2S, NO2, NH3, and Cl2 should be prevented from entering the telecommunications room.
The specific restriction is shown in Table 2-4.
Table 2-3 Restriction on dust content in the telecommunications room
Max. Diameter (μ m) 0.5 1 3 5
Max. density (particles/m3) 1.4 x 107 7 x 105 2.4 x 105 1.3 x 105

NH3 0.05 0.15

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Gas Average (mg/m3) Maximum (mg/m3)
Cl2 0.01 0.3
2.3.3 ESD Protection

Although many ESD prevention measures are adopted in the design of the SYNLOCK V3,
the electrostatic discharge that exceeds the limit can cause severe damage to the circuits or
even the entire equipment.
In the communication network connected to the SYNLOCK V3, electrostatic inductance is
mainly caused by the following:
l The outdoor electric field, such as high-voltage power cable and thunder
l The internal system, including indoor environment, floor material, and integrated
equipment structure
To prevent the ESD damage, perform the following operations:
l Ensure that the equipment and floor are properly grounded.
l Keep the telecommunications room free from dust.
l Maintain proper temperature and humidity.
l Wear an ESD wrist strap and ESD working clothes when touching the circuit board.
2.3.4 Anti-Interference
The interference sources, either from outside or inside of the equipment, can affect the
equipment by these types of interference:
l Capacitance coupling
l Inductance coupling
l Electromagnetic wave radiation
l Public impedance coupling (including grounding system, power cable, signal cable,
output cable and so on)
To avoid the interferences, perform the following operations:
l Take effective measures to prevent the electric network from interfering with the power
supply system.
l Separate the grounding system of the SYNLOCK V3 from the grounding system of the
power equipment and lightning-proof grounding, and place them at a distance from each
other.
l Place the SYNLOCK V3 at a distance from a high-power radio transmitter, radar
transmitter and high-frequency and large-current equipment.
l Adopt electromagnetic shielding if necessary.
2.3.5 Grounding
A proper grounding system ensures that the SYNLOCK V3 runs in a stable and reliable
manner. Customers must provide a proper grounding system for the SYNLOCK V3. Use a

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
ground cable to connect the ground point of the subrack to the ground. The ground resistance
must be less than 10 ohms.
2.3.6 Power Supply

Table 2-5 shows the power supply requirements of the SYNLOCK V3.

Input voltage Nominal voltage: -48 V DC to —60 V DC

Voltage range: -38.4 V DC to -72 V DC
2.3.7 Installation
If you plan to install the SYNLOCK V3 in the cabinet, you must ensure that the cabinet
conforms to the following requirements:
l Install the SYNLOCK V3 in an open cabinet if possible. If it needs to be installed in a
closed cabinet, ensure that the cabinet is properly ventilated and heat can be dissipated
easily.
l Ensure that the cabinet is firm enough to support the SYNLOCK V3 and other
installation components.
l Ensure that the cabinet size is suitable for installing the SYNLOCK V3. Reserve a
certain space between the front panel and the cabinet, and between the back panel and
the cabinet to facilitate heat dissipation from the subrack.

ESD wrist strap expires or the resistance value does not fulfill the requirement, use a new
ESD wrist strap.
l Prevent clothes from being contact with the boards because it may generate static
electricity beyond the protection scope of the ESD wrist strap.
l Wear the ESD gloves and place the board or chip on an ESD pad when replacing a board
or chip. Wear the ESD wrist strap. Use ESD tweezers or extraction tools to remove and
insert the chip. Do not touch chips, circuits, or pins on the printed circuit board (PCB)
without wearing ESD gloves or an ESD wrist strap.
l Place spare parts in the ESD bag. Place the removed parts onto an ESD pad or other ESD
materials. Do not use non-ESD materials such as white foams, common plastic bags, or
paper bags to pack boards or touch boards.
l Take ESD measures when performing operations on a port. Discharge external cables
and protective jackets of ports before connecting them to a device.
l It is recommended that you reserve some installation materials in the
telecommunications room, such as the vacuum-formed box and the ESD bag.
l Do not touch the PCB surface.
l Hold the board when installing or replacing it. Apply proper force on the board when
pushing or removing it.
l Insert the board (in the disconnected state) into or remove it from the slot carefully.
Make sure that the board does not collide with the subrack or the boards in adjacent

5.1 Rules for Routing Cables

This topic provides the precautions to be taken when routing, bending, bundling, and
connecting the commonly used cables.
Installing OT Terminals
Pay attention to the following points when installing two or more OT terminals onto one
wiring terminal, as shown inFigure 5-1.
l Do not overlap OT terminals with each other. Instead, install them crossly with the upper
one or ones bending 45°C or 90°C forwards.
l Bend the OT terminals sideways and put the larger one under the smaller one.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Figure 5-1 Installing OT terminals
Bending Cables
Pay attention to the following points when bending cables:
l To prevent cable core damages, do not bend the cables excessively, especially for trunk
cables and optical fibers.
l Ensure that the bending radius of a 7/8-inch feeder should be greater than 250 mm, and
that of a 5/4-inch feeder must be greater than 380 mm.
l Ensure that the bending radius of a 1/4-inch patch cord must be greater than 35 mm, that
of a 1/2-inch ultra flexible patch cord must be greater than 50 mm, and that of a 1/2-inch
common patch cord must be greater than 127 mm.
l Ensure that the bending radius of a signal cable must be greater than or equal to 5 times
its diameter.
l Bend the cables at a radius greater than twice of its diameter and bend the cables around
the outlet of the components at a radius greater than 4-6 times of its diameter.
l Bend optical fibers at a radius greater than 20 times of their diameter. Specifically, the
radius must be greater than or equal to 40 mm.
Bundling Cables
Pay attention to the following points when bundling cables:
l Bundle cables with cable ties at both side around the turns, as shown in Figure 5-2.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Figure 5-2 Bundling cables
l Install cable ties at equal spacing. Space two adjacent ties 250 mm at most inside a
cabinet and bundle subscriber cables with cables ties every 200 mm. When cables are
bundled outside a cabinet, the space between the cable ties is subject to the space
between the beams (if the beams are not available, the space between the cable ties must
not exceed 250 mm).
l Properly bundle cables especially for optical cables.
l Install cable ties in the same direction. Trim off the excess of cable ties without
remaining rough edges.
l Coil the redundant optical fibers, cables, and network cables.
l Protect the unused optical cable connectors with protective covers.
l Ensure cable connectors made on site are standard, firm and reliable.
l Install cables in an untangled and orderly fashion.
l Do not bundle cables passing the subrack side but arrange cables in an untangled and
orderly fashion.
Laying out Cables

Pay attention to the following points when laying out cables:
l Place cables in order and keep the sheath intact.

l Properly bundle cables and maintain sufficient slack in cables.
l Lay out cables of different types separately.
l Follow the planned scale, path, cross-sectional area, and position to lay out the cables.
l Take future maintenance and capacity expansion into account when laying out cables and
using ports.
l Bundle every eight cables together. When fewer than eight cables are reserved, bundle
them together. Arrange the cables hierarchically. The adjacent binders should be
interconnected to ensure that all cables are arranged together after cables are laid out.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Routing Cables
Route cables in overhead or underfloor cabling mode.
Pay attention to the following points when routing cables in overhead cabling mode:
l Route cables along the cable tray of the cabinet.
l If the cable tray is less than or equal to 0.8 m over a cabinet, route the cables through the
cable inlet. If the cable tray is more than 0.8 m over a cabinet, route cables using a cable
ladder to help eliminate the possibility of strain on the cables.
l If a cable ladder is used, route the cables downwards through the cable ladder, as shown
in Figure 5-3.
Figure 5-3 Routing cables through a cable ladder
l If a cable trough is used, route cables downwards, as shown in Figure 5-4.
Figure 5-4 Routing cables on a cable trough

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Pay attention to the following points when routing cables in underfloor cabling mode:
l Route all cables under an ESD floor or along a cable trough.

l To install cables beneath an ESD floor, ensure that there is a minimum clearance of 1/4
of the height under the ESD floor.
Routing Power Cables and PGND Cables

l Do not route power cables in overhead cabling mode. Bury the power cables outdoor or
route the power cables indoors.
l Properly insulate DC terminals and other exposure-unnecessary parts of the PGND
cable.
l Bundle -48 V power cables and RTN cables.
l Ensure that the electric contact on the connection points at both ends of the PGND cable
are reliable, and anti-corrosion measures are taken.
l Connect the PGND cable to the PGND terminal of the DC power distribution unit (PDU)
or ground bar in the telecommunications room reliably.
l Replace the optical cable that is too short for routing with a longer one, and do not add
connectors or fusion splicing points on the cable.
l Ensure that insulation measures are taken when routing optical cables on a metallic cable
tray.
l Do not route power cables and signal cables in the same route. Route cables in an
untangled and orderly fashion. Route cables outside a cabinet along different cable trays
in layers. If this cannot be implemented, ensure that the space between the power cable
and the signal cable is not shorter than 30 mm.
Routing Optical Fibers

l Take measures, such as using corrugated pipes or guide troughs, to route cables outside a
cabinet. Ensure that the space between the corrugated pipe and the power cable is not
shorter than 30 mm.
l Do not route optical fibers and power cables in the same route inside a cabinet. Ensure
that optical fibers are routed in an untangled and orderly fashion.
l Protect unused optical fiber connectors with protective covers.
l Take cut-proof measures at both ends of the corrugated pipe to prevent fiber damage.
l Check whether the optical connector is clean before the installation. If it is not clean,
clean the connector by using a piece of dust-free cotton cloth or a fiber cleaning box.
l Ensure that the surface of the metallic hole that optical fibers pass through is smooth and
rounded thoroughly.
l Protect optical fibers with corrugated pipes before routing them into a cabinet.
l Ensure that the tensile force on optical fibers is no more than 100 N when routing optical
fibers (including passing through the corrugated pipe).
l Route the corrugated pipe into a cabinet, bundle it, and fix it. Ensure that the length of
the corrugated pipe inside a cabinet does not exceed 100 mm.
l Bend optical fibers at a radius greater than 20 times of their diameter. Generally, bend
optical fibers at a radius greater than 40 mm.
l Do not look into the optical port without eye protection.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
l Arrange optical fiber pairs in orderly fashion and bundle them properly using a binding
strap, without leaving bundling marks.
l Use fiber spools and cable ties to secure optical fibers. Ensure that there is no protruding
component on the route of optical fibers and there is no large-power heat component
within 10 mm away from the optical fiber.
l If optical cables containing the metal reinforcing rib enters a telecommunication office,
ensure that the reinforcing rid is reliably connected to the protection ground bar of the
telecommunications room.
Routing Signal Cables

l To protect signal cables, install a protective ring on the hole, round the hole, or polish the
hole through which signal cables pass.
l Reserve excess cables for connecting to the connecting point. This also prevents the
stress produced at the connecting point. After connecting multiple terminals to a multi-
pin connector, groom the terminals to eliminate the stress of the terminals.
l Use proper strength to bundle and groom the cables. Ensure that the signal cables are not
distorted because distortion may affect the signal quality.
l Prevent cables from being squeezed or dragged by rotatable parts, such as the door.
l Ensure that signal cables are not crossed with power cables, PGND cables, or radio
frequency (RF) cables. If transmission cables are routed with power cables, PGND
cables, or RF cables in parallel, ensure that the spacing between them must be greater
than 30 mm.
l When signal cables are routed into the central office, they pass through the metallic tubes
under the earth and both ends of the metallic tube are grounded. If outdoor signal cables
cannot be routed in underfloor cabling mode, shield the signal cables by leading them
through the metal hose. Ground both ends of the metal hose. In the telecommunications
room, the metal hose can be connected to the protection ground bar.
l Do not bend trunk cables excessively at turns to protect cable cores.
l Bundle excessive 75-ohm E1 cables properly to prevent damage to the cable cores.
5.2 Process of Routing External Cables

Correct routing process ensures the cabling quality, facilitates cable routing, and reduces the
routing time.
NOTE
All cables must pass the connectivity test and ensure that they are intact before they are laid out.
Figure 5-5 shows the flow for routing external cables.

Figure 5-21 Appearance of an alarm cable
Procedure
Step 1 Plug the DB25 connector of the alarm cable to the remote alarm interface in the master
subrack of the SYNLOCK V3 device and secure the screw on the DB25 connector.
Step 2 The three 2-pin connectors of the alarm indicator cable correspond to the three indicators. The
N63E-22 cabinets do not have alarm indicators. If customers' cabinets have alarm indicators
and need to be connected to the cables of the 2-pin connector, connect them as follows:
l Longest cable: green indicator
l Medium-length cable: red indicator
l Shortest cable: yellow indicator.
Step 3 The remote alarm cable provides a DB9 remote alarm connector that can be connected to the
Huawei standard alarm cabinet.
Step 4 Route cables along the right side of the cabinet and bundle them along the strip. Bind and
route the cables close to the inside of the cabinet. Ensure that these cables are at a distance of
more than 10 mm from the power cables.

5.7 Routing Clock Cables
5.7.1 Preparations
The interface for the clock cable is in the interface area of the SYNLOCK V3 subrack.
Determining the Routing Rules

Figure 5-22 shows the appearance of the interface area on a SYNLOCK V3 subrack. Cables
in the left area are routed on the left of the cabinet and cables in the right area are routed at the
right of the cabinet.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Figure 5-22 Appearance of the interface area on a SYNLOCK V3 subrack
Determining the Relationship Between Interfaces and Boards

Table 5-3 lists the relationships between clock cable interfaces and board slots.
Table 5-3 Relationships between clock cable interfaces and board slots
Interface Area Slot
TOD 0 and 12
Expansion input 0 and 12
Input/Output Line A 1 and 2
Line B 3 and 4
Line C 5 and 6
Line D 7 and 8
Line E 9 and 10
NOTE
If a SYNLOCK V3 subrack is an extension subrack, the TOD and expansion input interfaces are
unavailable.
1PPS/DCLS_Out2 (DCLS signal output interface) is generally used as a TOD interface and it
can be the input interface of TODI boards (configured in slots 3 and 4 by default). The input/
output interfaces of the TODI boards are B1-B4.
The expansion input interface receives ground clock signals. When the SRCU or SOCU clock
board uses ground clock signals as input signals, the expansion input interface is used.
Each line of the input/output interfaces corresponds to two neighboring slots. The method for
using interfaces is related to the configured boards.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
l If LCIM boards work in input mode (non-backup) or test mode, the first 16 interfaces on
each line are used for input signals. Specifically, interfaces 1-8 are for the LCIM board
on the left and interfaces 9-16 are for the LCIM board on the right. If LCIM boards are
installed in slots 1 and 2 and they work in input and backup modes, the first eight
interfaces on line A are used.
l If TODI boards are installed (in slots 3 and 4 by default), the first four interfaces are used
for input signals and the last 16 interfaces are used for output signals.
l If TSOU boards are installed, the first 20 interfaces on each line are used for output
signals.
l If PNSU or TODU boards are installed, cables are routed from the front panels and the
input/output interface areas are not used.

5.11 Sealing Cable Inlets of the Cabinet

The cable inlets of the cabinet must be sealed after cables are laid out. Sealing cable inlets
secures cables and prevents insects and rodents from entering the cabinet.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Sealing Cable Inlets for the Power Cables and Ground Cable
After the power cables are routed through the rubber cable inlet of the cabinet, the rubber
cover automatically seals.
NOTE
The cable inlet at the top of the cabinet is used as an example. The method for sealing the cable inlets for
power cables and other cables in underfloor cabling mode is the same.
Sealing Cable Inlets for Optical Fibers

After optical fibers are laid out, the corrugated pipe must be sealed. This is to avoid damages
to optical fibers caused by shaking and to prevent other objects from entering the cabinet.
Optical fibers are protected by a corrugated pipe. Sealing the corrugated pipe helps seal the
optical fibers.

6.5 Routing the Feeder

This section describes the routing rules, routing sequence, routing procedures, grounding, and
attaching labels.
6.5.1 Routing Rules

Routing rules between the antenna and the cabinet.
l Unroll the feeder coil before laying the feeder. Try not to bend the feeder. If the feeder
has to be bent, ensure that the bend radius is not less than 20 times of its diameter.
l Protect both ends of the feeder with solid materials, such as the bag for packaging
boards. This is to avoid damage to the connectors during routing the feeder.
l If there are two feeders, attach temporary labels on the two feeders to identify them. The
contents of the temporary labels may be the same as those on the formal labels or be
different.
l If there are two feeders, route them together and ensure that they are untangled.
l If the feeder needs to be routed from the roof and along the wall into indoor and if the
routing length along the wall exceeds 1 m, it is recommended that the feeder be routed
by using a cable ladder.
l If a cable ladder is used, use feeder fasteners to secure the feeder. Table 6-2 lists the
space between feeder fasteners as a reference.
Table 6-2 Reference for space between feeder fasteners

Feeder Type Feeder Fastener Space
5/4" feeder 5/4" feeder fastener 6m
7/8" feeder 7/8" feeder fastener 6m

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Feeder Type Feeder Fastener Space
1/2" jumper 1/2" feeder fastener 3m
Adjust the space between feeder fasteners according to site requirements.
l Ensure that the path for routing the feeder from the roof to the telecommunications room
is smooth and facilitates installation. In addition, ensure that reliable waterproof and anti-
corrosion measures are taken.
l Make a drip loop before the feeder enters the telecommunications room. The vertical
distance between the lowest point of the drip loop and the inlet hole must be greater than
or equal to 200 mm. This prevents water from entering the telecommunications room.
6.5.2 Routing Sequence

Figure 6-9 shows the connection sequence for a feeder 1/2-inch feeder.
Figure 6-9 Connection sequence for a feeder that is 1/2-inch feeder

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Figure 6-10 shows the connection sequence for a feeder 7/8 inch or 5/4 inch cable material.
Because the feeder cable is thick and hard to bend, it cannot be connected to the 1.5 m jumper.
Therefore, connect them by using a 3.8 m jumper.
Figure 6-10 Connection sequence for a feeder that is 7/8 inch or 5/4 inch cable material
6.5.3 Routing the Feeder

To route the feeder, perform the following operations:

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Procedure
Step 1 If a cable tray is used, bundle the feeder cables by using cable ties or feeder fasteners, as
Figure 6-11 Fixing the feeder to the cable tray
(1) Feeder fastener (2) Feeder (3) Cable tray
Step 2 If the cables are routed along the wall, use feeder fasteners, as shown in Figure 6-12. Fix the
L bracket against the wall by using two M8 expansion screws. Use U clips to secure the
feeder cable, and use one U clip at every 2 m.Fasten the M5 screw.
NOTE
If the feeder has to be bent over the wall, fix the feeder with clips at the point before it crosses the wall
and at the point after it crosses the wall. This prevents damage to the feeder cables.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Figure 6-12 Schematic diagram of the feeder cable bracket
1. L bracket 2. M5 screw 3. U clip 4. Rubber pad
Step 3 After the feeder enters the telecommunications room, route it along the cable tray or under the
ESD floor. For the cable tray, fix the feeder cable by using cable ties.
NOTICE
l A PVC protective pipe is not required for the outdoor feeder because the skin of the feeder
can stand the outdoor environment and the feeder slips in the PVC protective pipe. Hence,
it is difficult to fix.
l Be careful when laying the feeder cable. To prevent damage to the cable due to inter-
twisting, ensure that you unroll the cable before laying it.
l The bend radius of the feeder must be 20 times the feeder radius. Otherwise, the feeder
can be damaged inside.
l If the connectors at both ends of the feeder cable are made before they are delivered, do
not cut the feeder cable on site, because the quality of the connectors cannot be ensured
if they are made again on the site.
----End
6.5.4 Grounding the Feeder
Background
Before the feeder enters the building, ground the feeder with ground clips. It is recommended
that the distance between the ground point is less than 1 m. In this case, you can use the
ground clip instead of the expansion cable.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Procedure
Step 1 Strip the sheath of the feeder cable according to the size of the clip, as shown in 1, 2 and 3 in
Figure 6-13.
Figure 6-13 Installing the ground clips of the feeder cable
Step 2 Fix the feeder ground clip on the shield layer of the feeder, as shown in 4, 5 and 6 in Figure
6-13.
Step 3 Seal the connection point with waterproof and PVC insulation tapes, and ensure that there is
no gap between the ground clip and the feeder.
Step 4 Ground the ground cable of the clip to the nearest ground point. If the ground cable of the
ground clip is not long enough, use the extension cable. It is recommended that you do not
use the extension cable.
NOTICE
l If the extension cable is longer than 10 m, use the 16 mm2 cable material. A cable with a
diameter of more than 16 mm2 is unnecessary, because the lightning current is sensitive to
the length, and not to the DC resistance.
l When securing the ground clip, ensure that the angle between the ground cable and the
feeder is not larger than 15°.
Step 5 After the feeder cable is led into the telecommunications room, ground it with the ground clip
before you connect it to the equipment. The ground point can be the protection ground in the
telecommunications room or a cable tray that is properly grounded.

6.5.5 Installing Engineering Labels

This section describes how to install engineering labels. Labels are installed on feeders and
jumpers to identify them.
Procedure
Step 1 Route the cable ties through the holes on the label and bundle the feeder label on the feeder or
jumper. Ensure that the label faces outward and install cable ties in the same direction, as
Figure 6-14 Installing labels
1 Cable tie 2 Label 3 Feeder or jumper
NOTE
Bundle the labels at the following positions:

l 200 mm away from the outdoor feeder connector
l 200 mm away from the feeder window before the feeder enters the telecommunications room
l 200 mm away from the surge protector interface on the top of the cabinet
The preceding positions are standard positions for attaching the labels. You can make
adjustments based on site requirements. For example, you can attach a label at turns.
Step 2 Fasten the cable tie, secure the labels and cables, and cut off the excessive parts of the cable
ties, as shown in Figure 6-15.
Figure 6-15 Securing labels and cables

SYNLOCK V3 BITS

flexible feeder, see Appendix A "Installing the Super Flexible Feeder Cable". For information
about the procedure for installing the N connector of the 7/8 or 5/4 inch feeder, see the
installation guide delivered with the connector.
Step 2 After the installation, connect each connector of the feeder properly, and seal the connectors
with waterproof and PVC insulation tapes.
----End
6.7 Sealing Outdoor Connectors

The connector between the outdoor antenna and the surge protector and the connector
between the surge protector and the feeder must be sealed. Outdoor cables are exposed to
natural environment. To protect their performances and prevent them from aging, their
connectors are sealed. This section uses the outdoor connector s of feeders as an example.
When a feeder is longer than 150 m, a 3.8 m jumper is required. This section describes how to
seal the outdoor connector between a feeder and 3.8 m jumper.

11.1 Introduction to Labels

This topic provides the materials, types, and structure of the labels. It also describes the
requirements for label printing and handwriting, attaching methods, label contents and
precautions.
Material Specification
The material features of the labels are as follows:
l Thickness: 0.09 mm.

l Color: Chalk white.
l Material: Polyester (PET).
l Applicable temperature: -29°C to +149°C.
l Compatible with laser printing or can be hand written by using oil markers.
l The material must pass the authentication of Underwriters Laboratories (UL) and
Canadian Standards Association (CSA).

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Types
There are two types of cable labels: the label for the power cable and the label for the signal
cable.
Label for the Signal Cable

The label for the signal cable is L-shaped and of a fixed size.
Figure 11-1 Label for the signal cable
The dividing lines on the label specify the position of a cable. For example, there is a dividing
line between the cabinet number and the subrack number, and a dividing line between the
subrack number and the slot number. The size of the dividing line is 1.5 mm x 0.6 mm, and its
color is PANTONE 656c (light blue).
The dotted lines mark the position for folding the label when you attach it to the cable.
There is a mark "TO:" (upside down in the figure) at the lower right corner of the label. The
mark identifies the peer end of the cable to which the label is attached.
Label for the Power Cable

The label for the power cable is attached to the identification plate on the cable ties. The size
of the bulge around the identification plate is 0.2 mm x 0.6 mm (symmetric on both sides).

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Figure 11-2 Label for the power cable
11.2 Filling Labels

You can print the contents on the labels by using a printer or write the contents on the labels
by using an oil marker. For higher efficiency and nicer layout, it is recommended that you use
a printer.
Template for the Printing

You can obtain the template through the following two ways:
l Download the template from the technical support website "support.huawei.com". The
path is as follows: Related Links > Engineering Service > Engineering Quality >
Quality Standard and Template.
l Obtain the template from the Huawei local representative.
When using the Microsoft Word template, pay attention to the following requirements:
l You can modify the contents on the template according to the positions of the cables
installed on site. However, the settings of center, direction, and fonts of the characters on
the label cannot be changed.
l Generally, the size of the characters is not modified. When there are a lot of contents to
be filled in, change the font size of the characters. Make sure that the contents are clear
and legible.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Setting the Printer

To print the labels, use a laser printer. The type of the laser printer is not limited. Before
printing a label, set up the page and print on an ordinary paper as follows:
1. Place the ordinary printed paper on the label paper. Compare and check whether the
printed paper conforms to the label requirement.
2. Make sure that the printing properties, such as Paper Size and Direction, are set
correctly.
If the printed paper meets the requirements, print the required content on the label paper.
Otherwise, adjust the page setup and print the required content again until you obtain the
correct printout. To adjust the page setup, do as follows:
a. Choose File > Page Setup.
b. Select Layout, set Header and Footer to 0.
c. Click the Margins tab. Select Left for Gutter Position. Adjust the values of Top,
Bottom, Left, and Right.
d. If the dialog box as shown in Figure 11-3, is displayed before printing, click Ignore
to continue the printing.
Figure 11-3 Warning prompt before the printing
After adjusting the page setup, save the printing properties. This page setup is required only
when you use the template for the first time.
Requirements for Feeding Labels in the Printer

The label paper is composed of two pages, and is different from the ordinary paper. Always
feed in the labels manually, one by one regardless of the model of the printer that you use. Do
not use the auto-feed mode to prevent the printer from getting jammed. Different models of
printers have different feeding positions for feeding the labels. Feed in the labels correctly.
Requirements for Printing Labels

The requirements for printing the labels are as follows:
l All the contents should be printed on the label. Ensure that the content is not printed at
the bottom of the label page.
l The contents in the cells should be aligned to the center. In the case of a single-line
printout, the dividing lines and the "TO" mark should not be covered by the printed
characters.
l If you merge the cells and print in multiple lines, adjust the contents and do not cover the
"TO" mark. Use the spacebar to move the content to the next line.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Writing Tool
To maintain the labels legible and neat, use the black oil marker (excluding the ball pen)
delivered with the products to write on the labels.
In special cases, you can use a black ballpoint pen, although it is not recommended to use a
ballpoint pen. The oil marker is more effective compared to the ballpoint pen. When you use
the marker to write on the labels, ensure that the surface of the labels is not oily. The oil can
smudge the letters.
NOTE
The delivered marker has two nibs. Use the smaller nib to write on the labels.
Font
The handwritten font must be similar to the standard typeface "Times New Roman" so that it
is clear and legible. Table 11-1 lists the standard typeface.
Table 11-1 Standard typeface for handwriting
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
9 A B C D E F G H
I J K L M N O P Q
R S T U V W X Y Z
The typeface for handwriting should be of proper size. When you fill in the label in Chinese
font, the size of the Chinese font must be proper, and the Chinese font must be legible and
neat.
Figure 11-4 shows the writing direction.

11.3 Usage of Labels

This topic describes how to use the labels, the information on the labels, and the precautions
to be taken when using the labels.
Information Carried on Labels

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
The contents on the signal cable are different from the contents on the power cable.
For the Signal Cable

The two sides of the label attached to the signal cable indicate the location of the ports
connected to both ends of the cable, as shown in Figure 11-5.
l Area 1 contains the location information about the cable end to which the label is to be
attached.
l Area 2 (with the "TO:" mark) contains the location information about the other end of
the cable.
l Area 3 is folded between area 1 and area 2.
Figure 11-5 Printing parts on the label for the signal cables
If the label is viewed from the cable leading-out area, it appears on the right side of the cable.
The side with "TO:" that faces outward indicates the peer end; the other side indicates the
local end. Therefore, the information in Area 1 at one end of the signal cable is the same as
the information in Area 2 at the other end of the cable.
For the Power Cable

The label for the power cable is attached only to one side of the identification plates. The
information (the part after the mark "TO:") on the label indicates the location of the peer end
device, control cabinet, cable distribution box or socket of the cable end to which the label is
attached.
Precautions for Using Labels
Pay attention to the following items when using the labels:

l When you print, write, or attach labels, ensure that the labels are clean.
l Do not use ink-jet printers or ink pens to print or write on the labels because the label
paper is made up of moisture proof and waterproof material.
l Attach labels neatly. The new label is of striped type. The appearance of the product is
affected if the attaching position or direction is not correct.
l Bundle the cable ties at the same height, and place all identification plates in the same
direction.
l The positions of "up", "down", "right", and "left" in this topic (excluding the description
of printer setting) are viewed when you face the labels.

11.4 Attaching Labels

After printing or writing the label on the base page, remove the label from the base page, and
then attach the label to the cable or the identification plate of the cable tie. The following
describes how to attach the label for the signal cable and the power cable.
Attaching the Label to the Signal Cable

Attach the label to the signal cable, 2 cm away from the connector. In special cases, for
example, to avoid bending the cable or affecting other cables, attach the label at a different
position on the cable.
The labels should be attached to both ends of a cable. When the cable is placed vertically, the
label should point towards the right. When the cable is placed horizontally, the label should
point downwards. Figure 11-6 shows how to attach the label to the signal cable at a proper
position.
Figure 11-6 Attaching the label to the signal cable at a proper position
Figure 11-7 shows how to attach the label to the signal cable.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
Figure 11-7 Attaching the label to the signal cable
Attaching the Label to the Power Cable

Remove the label from the bottom of the label page, and then attach it to the concave part on
one side of the identification plate. The cables can be attached on either side of the
identification plate, but ensure that the label directions are consistent in the
telecommunications room. The cable tie should be fastened 2 cm away from the connectors.
In special cases, the labels can be attached at other positions.
Cable ties should be fastened at both ends of a cable. After bundling the cables, the completed
identification plate should be visible on the top of the cable in the horizontal cabling, or on the
right side of the cable in the vertical cabling. Make sure that the label points outwards, as

11.5 Label for External Alarm Cables

This topic provides information on labels and example of labels for external alarm cables.
The external alarm cables are connected to the first cabinet that provides power supply of
each row. Labels attached to the first cabinet must indicate the access terminal distribution for
the devices. Labels are not required to be attached to the device unless it is required. Here,
only Area 2 of the label should be filled in.
Table 11-2 describes the information on the label for the external alarm cable.

number.
For example:
A01: Cabinet in row A and column 01.
NOTE
Generally, the preceding numbering method helps identify the position of a specific cabinet. If two
cabinets are installed back to back, the front direction of the cabinet must be specified. Hence, the
numbering method MNO is used. "O" indicates the direction of the cabinet, which can either be "A" or
"B." This numbering method is also used for the cable labels described in the following sections.
You need to fill only a part of the text area because the label on the alarm cable provides basic
information. It is recommended you reserve the entire length of the label. Do not cut off the
blank area.

11.8 Labels for DC Power Cables

This topic provides information on labels and example of labels for DC power cables.
The labels are attached to the DC cables of the DC-powered cabinet, including the -48 V,
PGND and BGND cables. The label for the DC power cable is attached to one side of the
identification plate on the cable tie.
Table 11-6 shows the information on the label for the DC power cables.
Table 11-6 Meaning of the label for the DC power cables
Content Meaning
MN(BC)- -48 V1 MN(BC): BC is written right below MN.

On the loaded cabinet side, only MN is used to identify the
MN(BC)- -48 V2
cabinet.
MN(BC)- BGND On the power distribution device side:
MN(BC)- PGND l MN identifies the row and column numbers of the power
distribution device such as the control cabinet and power
distribution box.
l BC identifies the row and column numbers of the -48 V
connector. If the row number or the column number does
not exist, or the connector can be identified without the
row or column number, BC can be omitted.
The BGND and the PGND cables do not require the row or
the column number.
The label indicates only the location of the peer end, control cabinet or distribution box.
Information about the local end is not required. Table 11-6 lists the information about the two
inputs of the -48 V power supply on the label. The information about other DC voltages (such
as 24 V, 60 V) should be written in a similar way. Make sure that the labels are attached in the
correct direction. After the cable ties are bundled on to the cable, the identification plates with
the labels should point upward.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
The contents on the cable labels in the same cabinet should be in the same direction, as shown
in Figure 11-13.
Figure 11-13 Example of the labels on the DC power cable
l On the loaded cabinet side, the label marked as "A01/B08- -48 V2" indicates that the
cable is used for the -48 V2 DC supply. The cable is routed from the 8th connector in
row B of the -48 V busbar in the power distribution cabinet in row A, column 01.
l On the power distribution cabinet side, the label marked as "B03- -48 V2" indicates that
the cable is used for the -48 V2 DC supply. The cable is routed from the loaded cabinet
in row B, column 03.
The label context is listed:
l In the power distribution cabinet (or the first power cabinet of a row in the transmission
telecommunications room), each terminal on the -48 V connector bar has a numeric
identification. For example, such as "08" (also mentioned as "8") in the label "A01/B08-
-48 V2."
l The PGND and the BGND are two copper bars. The terminals are directly connected to
these copper bars. Therefore, the connection of any of the terminal does not affect the
distribution of the power supply. Only the row and column numbers of the power
distribution cabinet are required. For example, if the label on the loaded cabinet side is
"A01-BGND", the power cable is a BGND cable that is connected to the BGND copper
bar in the power distribution cabinet in row A, column 01. The information on the labels
for the PGND cables must be provided in the similar way.
11.9 Labels for AC Power Cables

This topic provides information on labels and example of labels for AC power cables.

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
The labels are attached to the AC cables, including the 110/220 V, BGND and PGND cables
that supply power to the cabinets. Labels are attached to both ends of the cable. The 110/220
V, BGND, and PGND cables have the insulation sheath. Hence, you only need to write "AC"
and the cabinet number on each label.
The labels for AC power cables are attached to one side of the identification plate on the cable
tie. Table 11-7 describes the meaning of the label for the AC power cable.
Table 11-7 Meaning of the label for the AC power cable

Content Meaning
MN-AC MN: Cabinet number or the power socket position. Power socket: Mark the
positions clearly to avoid confusion. If the sockets have multiple rows and
columns, identify their positions as the cabinet.
The label only indicates the location of the peer end or socket. Information about the local end
is not required. Ensure that the labels are attached in the correct direction. After the cable ties
are bundled onto the cable, the identification plates with the labels must point upward, as
Figure 11-14 Example of the labels on the AC power cable
l On the loaded cabinet side, the label marked as "A01-AC" indicates that the cable is
routed from the power socket in row A and column 01.
l On the power distribution cabinet side, the label marked as "B01-AC" indicates that the
cable is routed from the loaded cabinet in row B and column 01.
11.10 Labels for Clock Cables

Applicable Range
Labels of the clock cable are attached to both ends of the cable. The labels indicate the
positions where the cable is terminated on the equipment and the DDF.
The clock cables include 75-ohm cable, 75-to-120-ohm cable, and 100-ohm T1 cable.

(UPS), and electric generator set. It should supply power in an integrated mode. The AC
power supply system should meet the requirement of the central office, and should
provide simple cable connection, safe operation, flexible distribution, and convenient
inspection. The low-voltage power supply system should use three-phase five-wire mode
or mono-phase three-wire mode. Table 12-15 lists the requirements on the nominal

Table 12-15 Requirements on the AC voltage and the frequency

Nominal Voltage Rated Frequency
Mono-phase three-wire 220 VAC; 230 VAC 50/60 Hz

110/127/220/380 (V)
Three-phase five-wire 380 VAC; 400 VAC 50/60 Hz
l Voltage fluctuation allowed:

SYNLOCK V3 BITS
– Fluctuation allowed: ±10%

– Valid value fluctuation: ±15%
– Time: less than 500 ms.
For dynamic electric network:
– Fluctuation allowed: ±10%
– Time: less than 2 ms.
l The UPS switchover time should not be more than 10 ms. Otherwise, it may cause the
device to restart or reset.
l When determining the AC capacity in the telecommunications room, you must consider
the working current and fault current. An independent device must have an independent
AC distribution protection device. The protection switch configuration must be greater
than the protection switch configuration of the electricity device.
l The generator set should have the following functions:
– Automatic power on and off
– Automatic recruitment
– Remote communication
– Remote control
– Remote measurement
– Standard interface and communications protocols
l The AC neutral for communication must use the conducting wire that has the same cross
section as the phase cable.
l The conducting wire is fire-resistant. Route the conducting wire according to the local
regulations, and set the low-voltage power distribution room also according to the local
regulations.
Requirements on DC Power Supply

l The central offices should ensure the reliable DC power supply. Place the power device
near the telecom device so that the DC feeder is as short as possible. To reduce the power
consumption and installation cost, the loop voltage drop from the battery port to the
device port should be smaller than 3.2 V.
l Configure two or more power supply systems, independent of each other, for the telecom
offices with heavy traffic or with more than two switching systems.
l Configure multiple independent power systems for the large capacity site according to
the floor, powering each independent office respectively. Configure a centralized power
room or battery room for the office with medium traffic, or adopt the distributed power
supply system. Configure the integrated power supply system for the office with less
traffic. Take measures to prevent the corrosive gas released by the battery from eroding
boards.
l In designing the DC power supply system, you must consider the maximum payload in
dynamic and static conditions. Also, you have to reserve the margin. The cabling in the
power distribution panel must be planned based on the maximum capacity of the
supplied power supply payload. In this way, you can decide the type and the
specifications of the conducting wire.
l Select the DC power feeder according to the long-term payload. If the cross section
exceeds 95 mm², use the hard bus cable. If there is a great difference between the recent
and long-term payload, maintain the cabling in stages.

13.1 Panel Description

13.2 Testing the SYNLOCK Output Waveform
13.1 Panel Description

This section describes the functions of the display area and the control area of the TDS220
oscilloscope.
NOTE
This document uses the TDS220 oscilloscope as an example to describe how to test the waveform.
Figure 13-1 shows the panel of the oscilloscope TDS220, including the display area and
control area.
Figure 13-1 Front panel of the oscilloscope TDS220

13.1.1 Display Area

There is a screen in the display area for displaying two channels of waveforms.
In the left of the screen, 1 and 2 indicate the reference ground of the waveforms of CH1 and
CH2 respectively. If no number is displayed, it means that there is no display for the channel.
In the upper part of the screen, the waveform icon indicates the ACQUIRE status. Trigger/
Auto/Ready/Stop indicates the current trigger status. The downward arrow indicates the
horizontal trigger position. Pos indicates the time deviation of this position compared to the
center line of the screen.
In the lower part of the screen, CH1 and CH2 indicate their vertical scales, that is, the value
that one big grid on the screen stands for. M stands for the set value of main time base, and W
stands for the set value of the window. CH1/CH2/EXT/EXT/5/AC LINE stand for the signal
sources for trigger. The rising edge icon and falling edge icon stand for two edge trigger
modes: rising edge trigger and falling edge trigger. The number on the right side of the icon
stands for the trigger level.
13.1.2 Probe Interfaces

The following describes the probe interfaces:
l PROBE COMP outputs the standard 5 V square waveform.

l CH1 and CH2 are input channels.
l EXT TRIG is an external trigger input interface.
13.1.3 Function Detection and Probe Compensation

For the function detection and probe compensation, proceed as follows:
1. After powering on the oscilloscope, connect the probe to CH1, and attach the probe and
reference lead to the PROBE COMP output end.
2. Press AUTOSET, if the shape of the displayed waveform is square, it indicates that the
oscilloscope functions normally.
3. If the displayed waveform is not a pure sinusoidal wave, adjust the probe compensation
in this way: Adjust the compensation hole on the probe stick with a screwdriver.
Check CH2 in the same way.
13.2 Testing the SYNLOCK Output Waveform
NOTICE
l Check whether the power cable is properly connected and is free of damage or electric
leakage.
l Make the instrument grounded reliably before using it. Otherwise, it may cause
interferences or electric shock to human body.

l Input signal must not exceed the limits of the oscilloscope.

l Keep the instrument clean and dry. Do not operate the instrument in humid or explosive
environment.
13.2.1 Signal Outputted Through 75-ohm Coaxial Cable

Leading out the signal to be tested
The signal can be led out in the terminated connection mode or in the cross connection mode.
l Terminated connection mode
In the terminated connection mode, the SYNLOCK output is idle, bearing no load. Lead out
the signal through the output port of the SYNLOCK or the port on the digital distribution
frame by using the coaxial cable, and connect a 75-ohm resistance to the input channel of the
oscilloscope, as shown in Figure 13-2.
Figure 13-2 75-ohm resistance
During the signal measurement, connect a type T BNC connector to the input of the
oscilloscope. Connect the 75-ohm resistance to one end of the type T connector so that they
are parallel to each other, and then input the test signal from another end.
The probe of the oscilloscope has high impedance, which cannot be connected to matching
impedance as shown in Figure 13-2. Therefore, the resistance should be connected in parallel,
between the probe tip and the ground clip.
l Cross connection
In the cross connection mode, the SYNLOCK output bears the load. For example, it passes
the signal to the peer equipment. To keep the amplitude of the signal unaffected, the signal
can only be led out in the high-impedance cross connection mode during the test. In this
situation, no resistance should be connected to the input of the oscilloscope.
Instead, lead out the signal by using the coaxial cable on the digital distribution frame to the
oscilloscope, or directly test it by using the probe. Although the oscilloscope adopts the high-
impedance cross connection, the requirements of the waveform amplitude are the same as that
in the terminated connection mode because the signal has carried the load.
Testing 2048 kbit/s Signal

The 2048 kbit/s code type of the SYNLOCK is HDB3, and its waveform conforms to the
ITU-T Recommendation G.703, which is the same as that of the ordinary 2 Mbit/s trunk
signal.
To test the 2048 kbit/s signal, perform the following operations:

1. Connect the 2048 kbit/s signal to be tested to one channel of the oscilloscope.
2. Press AUTOSET, and the waveform is displayed. If it is not displayed, check whether
the cable is connected correctly.
3. Spin TRIGGER to adjust the trigger level to make the waveform stable.
4. Adjust SEC/DIVE to adapt the amplitude and width of the waveform.
Figure 13-3 shows the ideal waveform of the 2048 kbit/s signal.
Figure 13-3 Ideal waveform of 2048 kbit/s signal
As a digital signal, the 2048 kbit/s signal contains variable data. The pulse in the waveform
varies between 0 and 1. Therefore, some pulses can be absent, which is quite normal because
those parts of the pulses must be clear and stable. The actual waveform is not as regular as the
one shown in Figure 13-3. Glitch is allowed within a certain range.
The pulse template for the 2048 kbit/s signal is specified in the ITU-T Recommendation G.
703. The pulses of the 2048 kbit/s signal should fall within the shadowed area, as shown in
Figure 13-4. V depends on the matching impedance. For the matching impedance of 75
ohms, the value of V is 2.37 V.
Figure 13-4 Waveform template for the 2048 kbit/s signal

Testing 2048 kHz Signal

The 2048 kHz signal of the SYNLOCK is a square wave signal, whose waveform conforms to
the ITU-T Recommendation G.703.
To test the 2048 kHz signal, perform the following operations:
1. Connect the 2048 kHz signal to be tested to one channel of the oscilloscope.
2. Press AUTOSET, and the waveform is displayed. If it is not displayed, check whether
the cable is connected correctly.
3. Spin TRIGGER to adjust the trigger level to make the waveform stable.
4. Adjust SEC/DIVE to adapt the amplitude and width of the waveform.
Figure 13-5 shows the ideal waveform of the 2048 kHz signal.
Figure 13-5 Ideal waveform of 2048 kHz signal
The 2048 kHz signal is a sheer periodical square wave. Hence, all the pulses should be stable
and clear. The actual waveform is not as regular as the one shown in Figure 13-5. Glitch is
allowed within a certain range. The pulse template for the 2048 kHz signal is specified in the
ITU-T Recommendation G.703.
It specifies that the pulse of the 2048 kHz signal should fall within the shadowed area, as
shown in Figure 13-6. In the double-shadowed area, the signal should be regular, that is, there
should be no glitch in the rising or falling edge. The value of V is 1.5 V, and the value of V1
is 0.75 V for the matching impedance of 75 ohms.

Figure 13-6 Waveform template for 2048 kHz signal
13.2.2 120-ohm Balanced Output

Leading out the Signal
The 120-ohm signal can also be led out in the terminated connection mode or the cross
connection mode. The leading-out of the 120-ohm signal is, however, different from the
unbalanced output of the 75-ohm signal.
The differential level between two cables should be measured in the test because the 120-ohm
balanced output is a differential signal.
To lead out the signal, perform the following operations:
1. Lead out the signal by using the 120-ohm twisted pair, and clip the two pieces of the
twisted pair by using the two probes of the oscilloscope.
2. If the twisted pair is shielded, clip the shield layer by using the grounding clamp of the
probe.
3. In the terminated connection mode, connect one 120-ohm resistance to the power of
1/4W or 1/8W between the testing ends of the two twisted pairs that are parallel to each
other. No resistance is needed in the cross connection mode.
4. Spin VOLTS/DIV of the two channels to make their voltage scales consistent with one
another.

5. Press MATH MENU and select CH1-CH2 in the menu to display a waveform. Adjust
VOLTS/DIV, SEC/DIV, and the upward/downward buttons to expand the waveform
completely. Note that the amplitude scales of the two channels must be consistent.
Testing 2048 kbit/s Signal and 2048 kHz Signal

If the matching resistance is 120 ohms, the waveform templates of the 2048 kbit/s signal and
2048 kHz signal are the same as those when the matching resistance is 75 ohms, as shown in
Figure 13-7 and Figure 13-8. The difference is the voltage amplitude and the details are as
follows:
l For the 2048 kbit/s signal, V is 3.0 V.
l For the 2048 kHz signal, the value of "V" is 1.9 V and that of "V1" is 1.0 V.
