CTR 8300 Installation Requirements

The following table lists cautions, rules, and guides for CTR 8300 (CTR 8311 and CTR 8312)
chassis installation.
Function/Requirement Priority Details

Restricted access CTR and its associated DC power supply unit must be installed in a
restricted access area such as a secure equipment room, closet, or cabinet.
Required Rack Space CTR occupies half-width on a 44.5 mm (1RU) vertical rack space, and
requires a minimum 300 mm rack depth to assist ventilation (chassis depth
is 200 mm).
Ventilation CTR requires unobstructed air passage above the unit for ventilation
purposes. See Ventilation and Ambient Temperature Limitations on page
23
CTR 8300 Maximum CTR is specified for a maximum ambient temperature (Tmra) of
Ambient Temperature +55° Celsius (131° Fahrenheit). This ambient applies to the immediate
operating environment of the CTR, which if installed in a rack cabinet, is the
ambient applying to its location within the cabinet. See Ventilation and
Ambient Temperature Limitations on page 23.
Hot Surfaces The external surfaces of CTR can be hot to touch, especially at high ambient
temperatures.
A hot surfaces warning icon is displayed on the product:
Physical stability Ensure that adding a CTR to a rack does not adversely impact the physical
stability of the rack.


Power Supply -48 Vdc CTR has the +ve pin on its DC power supply connector connected to the
chassis.
It must be used with a -48 Vdc power supply which has a +ve ground; the
power supply ground conductor is the +ve supply to the CTR.
The power supply unit must have an accessible power disconnect device
(main switch).
W arning : The input is r ever s e polar ity pr otec ted
agains t s w apping the -48Vdc and Ear th feeds . The
input is not pr otec ted agains t feeding +48Vdc to the
Gr ound pin and Ear th to the -48Vdc pin. This w ill
r es ult in an inter nal pr otec tion c ir c uit failur e.
NEVER c onnec t to a Negative- Ear th Supply.
Power Supply +24 Vdc An external 24 Vdc to -48 Vdc converter is required at sites using 24 Vdc
powering.
D.C. Supply Ground CTR equipment has a connection between the earthed conductor of the d.c.
Connection supply circuit and its earthing conductor.
CTR equipment must be connected directly to the d.c. supply system
grounding electrode conductor or to a bonding jumper from a grounding
terminal bar or bus to which the d.c. supply system grounding electrode is
connected.
Switching or disconnecting devices must not be in the grounded circuit
conductor between the d.c. source and the point of connection of the
grounding electrode conductor.
l The CTR chassis must be grounded to the station or master ground,
which must be the same ground as used for the DC power supply
system.
l Normally this is achieved by grounding the CTR to the ground bar in
its equipment rack or frame. This bar is most often located to one side
of the rack or at rack top or bottom. In turn, the ground bar is
grounded to the station ground.
Equipment Location CTR must be located in the same immediate area (such as, adjacent
cabinets) as any other equipment that has a connection between the
grounded conductor of the same d.c. supply circuit and the grounding
conductor, and also the point of grounding of the d.c. system. The d.c.
system shall not be grounded elsewhere.
Location of D.C. Power The d.c. power supply unit for CTR equipment must be located within the
Supply same premises as the CTR equipment.


D.C. Supply The DC power supply unit must be UL or IEC compliant for a SELV output
Compliance, Loading (60 Vdc maximum).
and Protection Check to ensure that connection of a CTR system to a new or existing DC
supply does not overload the supply, circuit protection devices and wiring.
CTR 8300 must be supported from a dedicated circuit breaker located on its
rack power distribution panel. The circuit breaker should have a rating of 5A
or 6A.
The circuit breaker must be used as the CTR power connect/disconnect
devices - do not use the front panel connector as a connect/disconnect
device.
Cable routing CTR Cat5, tributary, auxiliary and NMS cables are not to be routed with any
AC mains power lines. They are also to be kept away from any power lines
which cross them.
Rack or Wall Mounting

CTR 8312 and CTR 8311 are designed for conventional rack mounting plus surface or wall
mounting. With no fan noise it can be located in areas which would otherwise rule out an
installation.
Both are supplied for 19" rack mounting, with bracket options permitting single or dual
(side-by-side) installation.
l A standard CTR mounting kit, comprising 1x short bracket, 1x long bracket, 1x
joiner bracket, 1x grounding stud, is included with each CTR.

Ventilation and Ambient Temperature Limitations

CTR 8300 relies on thermal cooling via its top-mounted cooling fins - it does not incorporate
a cooling fan.
The following guidelines must be adhered to when locating a CTR 8300 in a rack or cabinet.
l For installation in an open-sided rack or in a cabinet-rack that has good ventilation
provided by grills/slots/vents/openings, or by fan-forced cabinet cooling:
o For ambient temperatures between 45°C and 55°C, not less than 1U (44.5 mm)
of clearance must be maintained above the CTR 8300.
o For temperatures below 45°C, no clearance is necessary providing the
equipment installed above or below CTR 8300 is not generating heat towards
the CTR 8300.
n Do not, for example, stack a CTR 8300 directly on top of another CTR 8300.
o Always check the installation to ensure that an air flow can be maintained to
and around the CTR 8300 cooling fins by normal thermal displacement
ventilation or by cabinet fan-forced ventilation.
l For operation in still air, as in a sealed outdoor cabinet where convection-based
cooling applies (no air circulation fan installed):
o For ambient temperatures between 45°C and 55°C, not less than 500 mm
clearance must be maintained above the CTR 8300 to provide the headroom

needed for convection cooling. This headroom may be occupied by other

equipment providing its size and location does not inhibit the convection cooling
process.
o For ambient temperatures below 45°C, not less than 2U (89 mm) clearance
should be maintained above the CTR 8300.
l Ambient temperature is defined as the air temperature in the immediate vicinity of
a CTR 8300.
o Maximum ambient temperatures must not be exceeded.
o CTR 8300 performance is not guaranteed when ambient temperatures exceed
maximums, and/or where air flow to cooling fins is restricted.
o Excessive heat is the number one cause of premature equipment aging and
failure.
CAUTION: The external surfaces of CTR can be hot to touch, especially at high ambient
temperatures.
Installation Procedure
Refer to the preceeding diagrams for rack and wall mount installation. This procedure is for
a standard rack-mount installation:
l Fit the CTR to the left or right side of the rack using the supplied mounting
brackets and fastening screws. First fit the grounding stud to the short bracket.
l Ground the CTR from its grounding stud to the rack/frame ground bar using a
length of 4 mm2 (AWG 12) green PVC insulated stranded copper wire with a
suitably sized ground lug at the ground bar end (supplied by the installer). The
grounding stud accommodates ground cables up to 16 mm2 (AWG 6). The stud
also provides jack plug connection for a wrist strap.
l If the equipment rack/frame requires grounding, use 16 mm2 (AWG 6) wire
from its ground bar to the station ground.
Grounding Safety:
o Do not assume an existing rack or mounting frame is correctly grounded.
Always check the integrity of the ground connections, which must include a
check through to the master ground for the station. The master ground bar
should be located at the point of cable entry to the equipment building. Ground
wires must provide a direct, low impedance path to the master ground bar.
o Do not connect other equipment to the same grounding cable as the CTR. Each
item of equipment in a rack must be separately grounded to the rack ground
bar.
o The CTR must be located in the same immediate area (adjacent
racks/cabinets) as all other equipment with a (ground) connection to a
common DC supply source.

l Install the SD card label-side-down in the slot at the rear of the CTR chassis.
WARNING: : CTR must be powered OFF when installing or removing the SD card.
o The SD card holds the SW load, default/current configuration, and as-

ordered capacity and feature licenses.
n CTR 8300 operates directly from the SD card.
n The SD card is identified by a unique serial number, which identifies a
terminal for capacity and feature license purposes. It also retains copy
of the current terminal configuration, and the previous configuration for
roll-back purposes.
n If the SD card is transferred to another terminal, the new terminal
assumes the identity of the previous terminal.
o Insert the SD card into the slot label-side-down, and carefully push-in until it
clicks home.
o To remove the card, push-in to release.
l Fit Ethernet RJ-45 or fiber cables as required. For fiber, first install the
required SFP option.
l Fit E1/DS1 tributary cables as required. For information on the available
tributary cable sets, refer to the CTR 8500/8300 Installation Guide.
l Carry out a complete check of the installation. When checked and correct, the
CTR is ready for connection to power.
CAUTION: Ambient temperature maximums must not be exceeded. See Ventilation and
CTR 8311, CTR 8312 Power Supply Connection

CTR 8300 requires a -48 Vdc power supply (+ve ground), but will operate to specification
over a voltage range of -40.5 to -57 Vdc.
The Return to Ground (+ve earth) pin on the CTR 8300 chassis power supply connector is
clamped to chassis ground via polarity-protecting power FETs.
WARNING: The input is reverse polarity protected against swapping the -48Vdc and
Earth feeds. The input is not protected against feeding +48Vdc to the Ground pin and
Earth to the -48Vdc pin. This will result in an internal protection circuit failure.
NEVER connect to a Negative- Earth Supply.
Where operation from a 24 Vdc PSU is required, an external unit is required to convert the
24 Vdc (+ve or -ve) to -48 Vdc for connection to the CTR 8300.
CAUTION: The DC power supply must be UL or IEC compliant for SELV (Safety Extra Low
Voltage) output (60 Vdc maximum limited).
CTR 8311 and CTR 8312 Power Connector and Cable

CTR 8312 and CTR 8311 are fitted with a 2-pin male Phoenix-type power connector.

A Phoenix-type female connector is included with each CTR 8300.

l The power cable is supplied by the installer - the cable conductors should be
4 mm2 (AWG 12).
l The installer must ensure that power cable wire colors used for Live and Ground
comply with operator and/ or local regulatory requirements.
l Refer to the figure below for -48Vdc Live and +ve Ground connector connections.
Figure 5. CTR 8300 Phoenix-type Power Connector
Figure 6. CTR Power Connection
Fuses
The chassis is fitted with a fast-acting 10A fuse. The fuse is not field-replaceable.
CTR 8311, CTR 8312 Power Cable Installation

These steps describe the procedure for installing the power cable, in preparation for
power-on.
Do not connect the power cable to the CTR until:
l CTR installation has been completed, and SD card fitted.
l Management access has been prepared.
o Connect one end of the power cable to the Phoenix-type power connector.
o Run the power cable through to a dedicated circuit breaker on the rack
power connect panel. The circuit breaker should have a 5A or 6A rating.

l The circuit breaker is the power disconnect device. Do not use the front-panel
connector for live power connect/ disconnect.
o Trim to length, and connect the Live -48 Vdc wire to the breaker, and the
Ground wire to ground/ +ve.
o Measure the voltage on the CTR DC power connector. The voltage should be
-48 Vdc, +/-2 Vdc for a non battery floated supply, and nominally -56 Vdc for
a battery floated supply. (Operational limits are -40.5 to - 57 Vdc).
CAUTION: Always check the integrity of the DC power supply right to its source. Never
assume that the supply provided to the pick-up point in a rack is correct.
CAUTION: CTR DC power, IF, tributary, and NMS cables are not to be routed with any AC
mains power lines. They are also to be kept away from any AC power lines that cross
them.

Ventilation and Ambient Temperature Limitations

CTR 8380 relies on thermal cooling via its cooling fins - it does not incorporate a cooling fan.
When mounted outdoors in an area that allows for air movement around the unit, no
additional ventilation is required.
The following guidelines must be adhered to when locating a CTR 8380 in a rack or cabinet.
l For installation in an open-sided rack or in a cabinet-rack that has good ventilation
provided by grills/ slots/ vents/ openings, or by fan-forced cabinet cooling:
o For ambient temperatures between 45°C and 65°C, not less than 1U (44.5 mm)
of clearance must be maintained above the CTR 8380.
o For temperatures below 45°C, no clearance is necessary providing the
equipment installed above or below CTR 8380 is not generating heat towards
the CTR 8380.

n Do not, for example, stack a CTR 8380 directly on top of another CTR 8380.
o Always check the installation to ensure that an air flow can be maintained to
and around the CTR 8380 cooling fins by normal thermal displacement
ventilation.
l Ambient temperature is defined as the air temperature in the immediate vicinity of
a CTR 8380.
o Maximum ambient temperatures must not be exceeded.
o CTR 8380 performance is not guaranteed when ambient temperatures exceed
maximums, and/or where air flow to cooling fins is restricted.
o Excessive heat is the number one cause of premature equipment aging and
failure.
CAUTION: The external surfaces of CTR can be hot to touch, especially at high ambient
temperatures.
Installation Procedure
l Refer to the preceding diagrams for the wall mount, ODU mount, and mast
mount installation.
l Ground the CTR 8380 from its grounding stud to the closest earthing point using
a length of 16 mm2 (AWG 6) green PVC insulated stranded copper wire
(supplied).
l If the CTR 8380 is mounted in a equipment rack/ frame, ensure that there is a 16
mm2 (AWG 6) wire from the equipment rack/ frame ground bar to the station
ground.
Grounding Safety:
o Do not assume that the mechanical mounting provides sufficient grounding of
the CTR 8380.
o Do not assume an existing ODU or Mast or mounting frame is correctly
grounded. Always check the integrity of the ground connections, which must
include a check through to the master ground for the station. The master
ground bar should be located at the point of cable entry to the equipment
building. Ground wires must provide a direct, low impedance path to the
master ground bar.
o Do not connect other equipment to the same grounding cable as the CTR 8380.
Each item of equipment in a rack must be separately grounded. When the CTR
8380 is mounted to ODU, each is to have a separate earth cable to the earthing
point. Do not connect the CTR 8380 earth to the ODU.
o The CTR must be located in the same immediate area as all other equipment
with a (ground) connection to a common DC supply source.
l For CTR 8380, the SD card is installed at manufacture and is a non-serviceable

part.
l The SD card holds the SW load, default/ current configuration, and as- ordered
capacity and feature licenses.
o CTR 8380 operates directly from the SD card.
o The SD card is identified by a unique serial number, which identifies a terminal

l Mount the terminal on the din rail without tightening screws on the sides of the
terminal.
l Fit the din rail terminal on the junction box.
l Tighten the two screws positioned on the sides of the terminal.

l Mount on different sides of the junction box the two M16 or M20 (depending on
the size of the power cable used) cable glands and locknuts.

l Pass the power cable connected to the CTR 8380 AC through the first cable
gland and the second power cable connected to the main supply through the
second cable gland.
l Connect the conductors of the coaxial power cables together via the terminal in
the junction box, as shown in Figure 5-5 External cable junction box.
Note that the terminals will accept a conductor size not smaller than 18AWG (i.e. 18
to 14AWG), and the nominal conduit size 1/2 or 3/4".
l Close the junction box with the plastic screws provided.
Power On
Carry out a complete check of the installation. When confirmed as correct, insert the CTR
power connector and turn power on at the circuit breaker.

CAUTION: Once powered up any radio frequency units will be transmitting with the pre-
configured or ex-factory frequency and power settings unless the start-up transmit mute
option has been invoked. (All ODUs/RFUs shipped ex-factory have the transmit-mute set
as the default unless otherwise specified). If frequency and power settings are not
correct, interference can be caused to other links in the same geographical area.
CAUTION: Always use the circuit breaker to apply or remove power to a CTR 8300. Never
use the front panel Phoenix power connector as a connection/ disconnection device.
Next Steps
l To install and commission radio frequency units and associated antennas, refer to
the CTR 8500/8300 Installation Guide.

Caution Item Information

Installation and Service Installation and service must be carried out by authorized personnel who have the
Personnel technical training and experience necessary to be aware of any hazardous
operations during installation and service, and of measures to avoid any danger to
themselves, to any other personnel, and to the equipment.
Service personnel must have received adequate technical training on the
equipment this guide refers to.
Hazardous Materials No hazardous materials are used in the construction of CTR.
Hazardous Voltage CTR meets global product safety requirements for safety extra-low voltage (SELV)
rated equipment where the input voltage/must be 48 Vdc nominal, 57 Vdc
maximum.
Laser and Fiber Optic Cable Any fiber optic transmitters used are IEC60825-1 / 21CFR1040-1 Class I compliant
Hazards and present no danger to personnel in normal use. However:
l Do not look into active unterminated optical ports or fibers. If visual
inspection is required ensure the equipment is turned off or, if a fiber cable,
disconnect the far end.
l Follow the manufacturer's instructions when using an optical test set.
Incorrect calibration or control settings could result in hazardous levels of
radiation.
l Protect/ cover unconnected optical fiber connectors with dust caps.
l Place all optical fiber cuttings in a suitable container for safe disposal. Bare
fibers and fiber scraps can easily penetrate the skin and eyes.
Indoor Unit and DC Supply The ground for CTR indoor unit(s) must be connected directly to the DC supply
Grounding system ground conductor, or to a bonding jumper from a grounding terminal bar,
or bus to which the DC supply system grounding is connected.
Mains Power Supply CTR DC power, IF, tributary, auxiliary and NMS cables are not to be routed with any
Routing AC mains power lines. They are also to be kept away from any power lines that
cross them.
DC Supply Voltage and The CTR has the +ve pin on its d.c. power supply connector connected to chassis
Polarity ground. It must be used with a -48 Vdc SELV-compliant power supply which has a
+ve ground; the power supply ground conductor is the +ve supply to CTR.

Circuit Overloading When connecting the CTR, determine the effect this will have on the power supply
circuit protection devices, and supply wiring. Check CTR power consumption
specifications and the supply capability of the power supply system. This check of
capacity must extend to the DC power supply and not just to an intermediate
connection point.
Mechanical Loading When installing an indoor unit in a rack, ensure the rack is securely anchored.
Ensure that the additional loading of a CTR indoor unit or units will not cause any
reduction in the mechanical stability of the rack.
Restricted Access CTR must be installed in restricted access sites. The indoor unit and associated
power supply must be installed in restricted areas, such as dedicated equipment
rooms, closets, cabinets, or the like. Access to any tower and antenna location
must be restricted.
For USA:
In restricted access areas install the CTR system in accordance with articles 110-
26 and 110-27 of the 2002 National Electrical Code ANSI/ NFPA 70, or to any
subsequent update to this code for the relevant articles.
