ZXSDR BS8800 Installation Criterion

Prepared byRajesh K Gaurav

BTS installation Position

Front aligned of the BTS Must be done with the adjacent rack

Correct alignment

incorrect alignment
The vertical deviation of the cabinets shall not exceed 1 of the cabinet
height.
The front side of the same row of cabinets shall be on the same surface, with a
deviation not more than 5mm allowed.
The first cabinets of all the rows shall also be on the same surface, with a
deviation not more than 5mm allowed.

Procedure for BTS Grouting

Select the installation position as per the design documents.

Minimum required gap with the adjacent rack should be 100mm.
Do marking with the marking template.

Use drill machine to make holes for expansion bolts.

Fix the fasteners and then fix the base with insulation pad.

Fix the cabinet.

Expansion bolts must be installed properly.

Washers must be installed in correct order
i.e.
Insulation washer >Flat washer>Spring
washer>Nut

Check vertical and horizontal leveling errors.

The front side of the same row of cabinets shall be on the

same surface, with a deviation not more than 5mm allowed.
The first cabinets of all the rows shall also be on the same
surface, with a deviation not more than 5mm allowed.

Power cable installation

The -48V power cable shall be blue, the -48V GND power cable shall be black,
and the ground cable shall be yellow-green.

The cross sectional areas of the power cables and the ground cables shall
comply with the product installation requirements. The cross sectional area of
the ground cables shall be at least 35 mm2 and they shall be connected reliably
to the indoor ground copper bar. Those of the -48V GND power cable and the
-48V power cable shall be at least 25mm2 and they shall be laid straight and
connected reliably.

Power cable routing

Use white ties at regular intervals

Extra power cable length should not be coiled

must be cut

Power Cable termination

Maximum two lugs are allowed to

terminate at a single terminating
point according to the below figures
*Blue Power cable must be
terminated to the -48 V.
MCB should be labeled

Cable routing at BTS

Ties must be used to fix Jumper cables at BTS end
All the jumpers must be routed straightly the bending
radius should not exceed

Hot shrink sleeves must be installed

Power cable & Jumper cable routing

All cables must be routed vertically at BTS.

Power cables should be separately routed from
E-1 and signal cables.

White ties must be used at regular intervals

Antenna & Feeder Installation

Antenna installation

Check antenna
mounts are fixed
properly using 2
nuts.

Assemble the antenna clamps.

Connect antenna jumpers to the antenna ports.
Do the weather proofing of ports.
Weather proofing process1- Wrap three layer of insulation tape on connector :
2- Wrap three layers of water-proof daub.
3- Finally, wrap three layer of insulation tape again.
Wrapping requirement: Wrap one layer from bottom
upward, one layer from top to bottom, and finally one
layer from bottom upward. When wrapping the tape or
daub, make sure that the upper layer covers 1/3 of the
lower layer. The daub must be stretched to 50%. The tape
must be wrapped smoothly.

Mounting of Antenna & Feeder

Pull the feeder away from
the iron tower with this
rope to avoid damage to
the feeder or feeder head
Pull-up rope

Fix the antenna.

The azimuth and tilt angle of the installed
antenna must accord with design
specifications

The antennas shall be installed below the

lightning rod and within its protective range.
The protective angle in the plains shall not
be more than 45 and in the mountains not
more than 30.

Note- maximum interval

between two feeder clamps
should not increase more
than 1~1.5 meters.

Jumper must be routed 300mm straight

at the connectors. Bending radius
should not be less than 20times of the
feeder diameter.

Feeder installation
1. Distance between two clamps should be 1~1.5 meter.

2. Water drip arch must be given at

the feeder window

3. Feeder bending should be smooth & radius

shouldnt be less than 20d (d=diameter of feeder).

4. Feeder window must be seal to avoid water inside the shelter

Grounding Clip installation

If the length of a feeder 20m, then ground it at two points, one within 2m from the
antenna feeder connector and the other that is near the outdoor feeder window and
connected to the outdoor ground bar;
If 20m < its length 60m, add a ground point with 2m from the point where it leaves
the iron tower or the rooftop;
If its length >60m, it is required to add one more ground point for every 20 more
meters.

Connections & labeling of Feeder

Surge Arrester installation & grounding

Surge arrester stand must be fixed

properly at the cable tray
Grounding cable of the surge arrester
stand must be connected to the EGB.

Labeling

All equipments & cables must be labeled for identification and easy maintenance.

The labels of cable are filled in and stuck correctly and reliably.
They must be tidy position and same direction. They must be
stuck on a position 2 cm away from their connectors. They can
be made in a uniform way according to customer requirement.

R marked on labels is short for

Remote. Generally, it is on the left of
the label. L is for Local and usually on
the right of the label.
