Precautions

This document aims to provide simple and distinctive guidelines for hardware installation.

This document does not describe operations for the pre-delivery installation. Instead, this document
describers only the operations for on-site installation.

Electrostatic Discharge
Before touching the device, or holding the boards and IC
chips, wear the anti-static gloves or anti-static wrist strap
to prevent the electrostatic discharge of the human body
from damaging the sensitive components. Ensure that
the other end of the anti-static wrist strap is well
grounded.
IC

Bundling Cables
The distance between cable ties or fiber binding straps inside the cabinet should be within 250 mm. (For
subscriber cable, the distance is 200 mm. )
/250mm
200mm
The distance between cable ties for all cables and corrugated pipes outside the cabinet is determined
according to the distance between two horizontal beams. For the cabling trough without beams, bundle
the cables with the distance not exceeding 250 mm between cable ties.

250mm

Checking Before Installation

Before starting installation, you should make the equipment room, power supply, ground wire, optical
cables, and other facilities in the equipment ready. When these installation conditions are confirmed, the
installation may begin according to the pre-designed layouts.For detailed requirements and related
index, refer to Installation Reference.

Laser
When handling optical fibers, do not stand
close to or look into the optical fiber outlet
without eye protection.

SL1D

When routed outside a cabinet, the fiber jumpers must be placed in a corrugated pipe or a winding pipe.
The corrugated pipe should be led into the cabinet by about 10 cm inside and bound tightly.
10cm
Before using a pipe, cut it to an appropriate length depending on the routing distance between the IDU and
the ODF.
IDUODF
After leading the fiber jumpers through the corrugated pipe, wrap adhesive tapes around the cuts of the
corrugated pipe.

The bend radius of the fiber jumper must be greater than its minimum curvature radius. Specifically, the
minimum curvature radius for the 2 mm fiber jumper is 40 mm, and that for the 3 mm fiber jumper is 60 mm.

 Aligning the Antennas

1 Aligning the Single-Polarized Antennas

Determine the azimuth of the antenna according to the installation position and height of the antenna.
Then, adjust the elevation of the antenna to the horizontal position.

Connect a multimeter to the RSSI port on the ODU at the local end and test the voltage value VBNC.
ODURSSIReceived Signal Strength Indicator

The red line of the multimeter is connected to the pin, and the black line of the multimeter is connected
to the inner wall (grounding pin).

Maintain the remote antenna fixed. Adjust the level adjustment screw. At the local end, rotate the antenna
widely in the horizontal direction.

a If three signal peaks are tracked, adjust the azimuth of the antenna so that the received signal level (RSL)
reaches the peak value at position 2.

If two signal peaks are tracked, adjust the azimuth of the antenna to the middle of positions 4 and 5. Then,
b adjust the elevation of the antenna so that the three signal peaks such as the signals on the line AA' can
appear. Adjust the antenna so that the RSL reaches the peak value at position 2.

Adjust the remote antenna to ensure that the RSL at the local end and the RSL at the remote end reach
the peak value. Check the status of the ODU indicator on the IF board. The ODU indicator on the IF board
should be off. If the ODU indicator on the IF board blinks yellow every 300 ms, you need to align the
antenna.

ends of the radio link, power on the horizontally
polarized ODUs at both ends of the radio link, and
thus ensure that the antennas transmit horizontally
polarized signals.

Power on the vertically polarized ODU at the local end. Use a multimeter to measure the RSL on the
RSSI port of the vertically polarized ODU. Release the holder of the feed boom slightly, and turn the feed
boom gently until the RSL reaches the minimum value (P2). The calculated XPD1 (XPD1 = P1 - P2)
should be not less than 30 dB. Record the angle (D1) of the current feed boom.

 Checking the Installation

No. Item

1 The chassis should be installed firmly in the position specified in the engineering design document.

2 Each chassis component does not have any paint drop, damage, or stain. Otherwise, re-paint or clean the component.

3 When a board is inserted into the chassis, the screws on the front panel of the board should be tightened.

4 Empty slots in the chassis should be covered with filler panels.

5 The routing of the cables should conform to the engineering design document and should facilitate maintenance and
expansion in the future.

6 The cables should not be damaged, broken, or jointed in between.

7 Each core of the cables should be tested for connectivity.

8 The cables should be bundled closely with proper force. The spacing between the cable ties should be even. After the cable
ties are fixed, the remaining part should be trimmed with no burrs.

9 The signal cables should be routed correctly in the cabinet.

10 The cables outside the cabinet should be routed as follows:

The cables should be placed tidily and should not be cross-connected.
If a cabling ladder is used, the cables should be bound onto the ladder beam tidily. If the cabling frame is 0.8 m or more
higher than the cabinet top, a cabling ladder should be available on the cabinet top to support the cables and to ease stress.


0.8m

11 The cable turns should be smooth and have a big bending radius.

12 The cable labels should be filled in correctly and stuck firmly. They should be aligned and face to the
same direction. The labels need to be stuck two centimeters away from the connectors.
2cm

13 The power cable and grounding cable should be routed separately from the signal cables.

14 The unused cable connectors should be protected. For example, the connectors should be installed with protective caps.

15 The protective tube for the fiber jumpers should be led into the cabinet for 10 cm and bound tightly.
10cm

16 The cuts of the protective tube for the fiber jumpers should be smooth. Otherwise, they should be wrapped by an insulating
tape.

17 The fiber jumpers should not be bound over-tightly, and can be moved freely in the cable tie.

18 The connecting points of the fiber jumpers should be clean. The unused fiber connectors and optical interfaces should be
protected by protective caps (plugs).
