Site LAN Interface including Local O&M


A site LAN is used to communicate with the RBS Element Manager
(RBS EM) or Moshell, which in turn can be used to connect a thin
client to the RBS3518 for configuration and service purposes.

To connect to the site LAN, route a crossed transmission cable through


the cable sealing module at the bottom of the RBS 3518 and plug its
RJ-45 cable connector into the cable inlet located above the Surge
Protection Device(SPD). See beside picture.

OIL Interface
The OIL interface carries traffic and timing signals between the RBS
3518 and each RRU. The OIL cable is routed to the OBIF2 (or OBIF4)
board through the cable sealing modules at the bottom of the RBS
3518. see the beside picture.

Transmission Interfaces
The connection interface at the bottom in the RBS 3518 is equipped
with a plate of cable sealing modules, with each module intended for
sealing three cables. As the cables to be used can be of various
diameters, it is possible to change the diameter of the hole in each
module.

External Alarm Interface


The external alarm interface is a push-in connector. As shown in beside
picture. Two OVP modules are used to make the external alarms
available.

ESD Interface

The Electrostatis Discharge (ESD) interface provides a connection


point for the ESD wrist strap, which protects boards and units from
being damaged by electrostatic discharge from anyone working with
them.
Earth Grounding Interface

The single earth grounding point for the RBS 3518 is the threaded
stud.

Power Interface
The power interface accepts cables with a cross-sectional area of up to
4 mm2, and a minimum of 2.5 mm2 is recommended. Only multistrand
cables can be used. The power is connected to the PDU through the
SPD. The SPD and Connection Field are covered, as picture beside.

Cabinet overview
The Main Unit (MU) consists of the following parts:

 Main Unit (MU) Subrack


 Switch Control Board (SCB)
 Timing Unit Board (TUB)
 Exchange Terminal (ET) board
 General Purpose Processor Board (GPB)
 Transmitter (TX) board
 Random Access and Receiver (RAX) board
 Optical Baseband Interface (OBIF) board
 Capacitor Unit and External Alarm (CUX) unit
 Remote Radio Unit (RRU)

RRU overview
The Radio Remote Unit (RRU) contains all radio equipment and is a
field-replaceable unit. No parts of the RRU can be replaced separately.

Hardware Units
A Fan Unit

B Capacitor Unit and External Alarm Unit (CUX)


MU (Main Unit) subrack
C
The MU subrack typically consists of the following
components:

 Switch Core Board (SCB)


 Timing Unit Board (TUB)

 Exchange Terminal (ET) board

 General Purpose Processor Board (GPB)

 Transmitter (TX) board

 Random Access Receiver (RAX) board

 Dummy Board/second RAX board

 Optical Baseband Interface (OBIF) board

D Connection Interfaces

OIL
The connection between the MU and the RRU is made by an Optical
Interface Link (OIL). There are several different lengths available
for the OIL cables: 20, 70, 150, 250, 350 and 500 m. The OIL must
have zero-dispersion in the wave length range 1302 – 1322 nm.

For longer distances between MU and RRU an already installed


optical fiber transmission network, e.g. Dark Fiber, can be leased
and used to increase the total length of the OIL. The OIL cable(s) is
connected to the leased optical fiber transmission network by a
connection box.

The maximum length of the OIL (OIL cable, or OIL cable and leased
optical fiber) is 15000 m.

It is important that the leased optical fiber has a fixed delay and
that the uplink and downlink fiber have the same delay, within
8 ns. This corresponds to less than 1.5 m difference between uplink
and downlink fiber.

The total delay for the entire OIL connection must be less than
75 µs in each direction. This corresponds to 15 km fiber in each
direction.

The total optical attenuation for the entire OIL connection must be
less than 15 dB, in each direction

Connection Interfaces
A Transmission: E1, T1, J1 100 – 120 , or STM-1, electrical
and optical Ethernet 1 Gbit/s (view of E1, T1, J1 100 – 120
)

B Transmission: E1 75

C Grounding interface

D OIL interface

E GPS (optional)

F SiteLAN interface including local O&M

G Power interface

H External alarm interface

J ESD interface
Transmission Interface

E1 or Ethernet
The connection interface on the top of the MU is equipped with eight
female RJ-45 connectors, see the figure below. An internal connection
is made from the connection interface to the ET-MC1 or ET-MFX
board in the MU subrack.
To support the 75 cable impedance, the MU can be delivered with
one or two transmission adapters (Miniwift) installed on the top of
the cabinet. The transmission adapter, consisting of eight BNC
connectors, is a converter between the 75 coaxial interface and
the 120 twisted pair aimed for the E1 interface. The signal is
transformed to 120 in the transmission adapter, and distributed
to the 120 transmission connector panel and then further to the
ET board.

OIL Interface
The OIL interface carries traffic and timing signals between the MU
and each RRU. The OIL cable is routed to the OBIF board through up
to three holes on the top of the MU.

Site LAN Interface Including Local O&M


SiteLAN is used for communication with the Base station Element
Manager (BEM). A Thin Client can be connected to the MU for
configuration and service purposes by using the BEM. The interface
consists of an RJ-45 connector.

Power Interface
The power interface is protected by a plastic cover. The cables can be
connected without removing the cover. The power interface accepts
cables with an area up to 6 mm , a minimum cable area of 2.5 mm is
recommended. The cable should be a multi strand cable. The power is
connected directly to the CUX board using the DC input terminals.

This section provides information about the interfaces on the RBS.

The Connection Field (CF), the interfaces for earth grounding,


power and antennas are located on the RBS cabinet top. The CF
includes 22 slots beginning from the left.

The CF is used as the interface to the cabinet boards. The CF is


modular and contains the interfaces for transmission, local
Operation and Maintenance (O&M) and Auxiliary Unit Hub (AU-
Hub).

Power Connection Interface

The power connection interface is located on the cabinet top in a black


protective box, called DCCU (DC Connection Unit). The maximum
dimensions for each power cable is 70 mm and the power connectors
are two M8 screws with washers and M8 cable lugs.

Antenna Connection Infterfaces


The antenna connection interfaces are located on the cabinet top;
three antenna feeder connectors on each side. The connectors are
7/16 IEC-169-4 female connectors.

The connectors are labelled H1 to H3 and J1 to J3, see beside


picture.

The antenna cables must be connected as follows:

 Sector 1A to position J1
 Sector 1B to position H1
 Sector 2A to position J2
 Sector 2B to position H2
 Sector 3A to position J3
 Sector 3B to position H3

Transmission Interface

E1
The E1, T1, J1 connection interface in the CF is equipped with eight
female RJ-45 connectors for the ET board cables, see beside picture.
The ET-M1 board and the ET-MC1 board each has support for up to
eight T1, J1, or E1 transmission lines connected in four RPV 431
connectors in the board front

STM-1
The STM-1 connection interface, located in the CF in positions
T09 and T11, is equipped with two pairs of female SC connectors. An
internal connection is made from the CF to the ET-M4 or ET-MC41s
board in the BB Subrack.

Site LAN Interface


The connector for local O&M is an 8-pin, non-keyed, female RJ-45
connector located in the CF in position T17A. See beside picture.
Ethernet cables can be connected to the O&M interface. The connector
in position T17B is provided for redundancy
