7.1 Installing Flexi Power Module (FPMA)
These instructions show how to install and connect the cabling of Flexi Power Module
(FPMA).
Purpose
Flexi Multiradio BTS uses 48 VDC power. In a BTS site with AC feed only, a Flexi Power
Module (FPMA) 470139A is required for converting the AC power to DC power before
feeding the DC power to the System Module.
Flexi Power Module (FPMA) consists of mechanics, AC terminal and four slots for
AC/DC sub-module (FPAA) 470140A or battery sub-module (FPBB) 472113A.
The FPMA can include:
• two FPAAs and two FPBBs
• four FPAAs
• one FPAA and three FPBBs. Remember to take the charging current into account
when dimensioning the rectifiers and batteries.
• one FPAA and three free slots for expansion.
w NOTICE: Incorrect cables and seals may not provide appropriate ingress protection.
Use only tested IP65 class outdoor cables with seals provided by Nokia. This is
required for both indoor and outdoor installations, including the outdoor cabinet.
The FPMA must be located close enough to the System Module so that the alarm cable
and DC power cables reach the appropriate connectors. This also applies to the System
Extension Module (DC power cables only).
Two FPMAs can be installed in a stack to support FPAA and FPBB operating in parallel.
In a stacked dual FPMA installation, the FPAAs and FPBBs need to be interleaved per
rack. Do not install rectifiers in one rack and batteries in another.

If your configuration includes a System Extension Module, utilize the additional ground
lugs attached to the DC cable harness. Tighten the nuts to 14 Nm (10 ft-lb.).
By default, the DC output voltage of the FPMA is floating nominal 48 VDC, however, it
can also be positive grounded. This can be implemented by using a branch connector in
an additional connection box (see Figure 14: Positive grounding). In this solution, the +
wire between the FPMA and System Module is cut, and grounding to the BTS site
ground bar is done with an additional grounding cable (the cross-section of which must
be the same as that of the + wire).
38 DN09142359 Issue: 05

Figure 14 Positive grounding
The maximum diameter of the AC power feed cable is 24 mm (0.9 in). The maximum
sizes of conductors that the incoming AC terminals can accommodate are presented in
Table 2: Maximum sizes of conductors.
Table 2 Maximum sizes of conductors

Rated connecting capacity Value
Rigid (solid or stranded) up to 16 mm2 (6 AWG)
Flexible up to 10 mm2 (7 AWG)
Flexible with ferrule (without plastic up to 10 mm2 (7 AWG)

Flexible with ferrule (with plastic sleeve) up to 10 mm2 (7 AWG)
Flexible with TWIN ferrule up to 6 mm2 (9 AWG)
t Tip: It is recommended that the FPMA be pre-installed before installing it on the plinth.
If applicable, multiple FPMAs can be installed to FPMA unit to support FPAA and FPBB
connection in parallel. A maximum of two DC cables can be installed together at each
output terminal. This limitation is caused by:
• The output current from the FPMA where two with more than 4 FPAAs are combined
would exceed the safety limits for the thickness of the DC cables provided in the
delivery.
• The safety rubber boots provided in the delivery can accommodate up to two DC
cables per terminal.
• The DC output terminal bolt length can accommodate up to two DC cables per
terminal.

• When FPMAs are installed in parallel, the DC output cables should be installed
together at the FPMA closest to the System Module.
• When these two FPMAs have more than four FPAAs, two additional cable lugs are
required for the second stage FPMA output. These cable lugs are not included in the
delivery and must be sourced locally, choose appropriate thickness of the DC cables
based on the number of FPAAs. See Table 3: End stage output DC cable thickness
per number of FPAAs for details.

• When there are 8 FPAAs in FPMAs in parallel mode, two additional 50 mm2 (1 AWG)
cables are required for the end stage FPMA.
• New version FPMAs can be compatible with the old version FPMAs as old version is
used as the first stage.
• When FPMAs are operated in parallel the alarm connection between FPMA and
System Module can be made in alternative ways. See Figure 18: FPMA provisioning

(FPDA)
These instructions show how to install and connect the cabling of Flexi Power DC/DC
Module 24V (FPDA).
Purpose
Flexi Power DC/DC Module (FPDA) 470067A is an isolated 2U-high DC/DC Power
Module that converts nominal 24 V DC input voltage to 48 V DC nominal output voltage
and 2 kW power.

GND
When the BTS power load is more than 2 kW, multiple FPDAs can be installed in
parallel. When FPDAs are used in parallel, a maximum of two DC cables can be installed
together at each output terminal. This limitation is caused by:
• The output current from the FPDA where all three are combined would exceed the
safety limits for the thickness of the DC cables provided in the delivery.
• The safety rubber boots provided in the delivery can accommodate up to two DC
cables per terminal.
• The DC output terminal bolt length can accommodate up to two DC cables per
terminal.

The FPDA is delivered with two sets of rubber boots:
• one set accommodates cable thickness of 35-50 mm2 (2 to 1/0 AWG) for 24 V DC
input. Required cable thickness depends on the distance and voltage drop from the
external 24 V DC power supply.
• the other set accommodates up to two 25 mm2 (4 AWG) cables per terminal for 48 V
DC output to the System Module.
These boots can be used for single or dual DC cables at each power terminal. Dual
usage is required for pairing (chaining) cables when two FPDA modules are used in
parallel as shown in Figure 67: Parallel FPDAs with paired (chained) DC cables and
boots.

Multiradio 10 Base Station Optional Items Flexi Multiradio BTS configurations
9 Principles for installing Flexi Power Rectifier
(FPRx) in Flexi Multiradio BTS configurations
The following locations for installing the Flexi Rectifier Module (FPRB) CS7000030 in
Flexi Multiradio BTS configurations are recommended for ease of future expansion. The
FPRx can be installed anywhere in a stack or cabinet provided that the 2 m (6.6 ft) alarm
cable can be connected between the FPRx and System Module.
For installation and cabling instructions, see Flexi Power Rectifier Product
Documentation in Product Information Center.
FCIA installations
• For installations in Flexi Cabinet for Indoor (FCIA) without batteries, the
recommended location is at the top of the cabinet, near the cabinet roof. This helps
reduce the amount of cabling routed along the sides of the cabinet.
• For FCIA installations with batteries, the recommended location is near the bottom of
the cabinet, in the next available rack space above the batteries.
FCOA installations
For installations in Flexi Cabinet for Outdoor (FCOA):
• If the System Module is in the top vertical rack, install the FPRx on the lower vertical
rack, ensuring all cable entries come from the bottom of the module.
• If the System Module is in the horizontal rack, install the module in the top vertical
rack.
• If the System Module and System Extension Module are installed in both vertical
racks, install the module in either the top or bottom of the horizontal rack, depending
on whether the top or bottom cable entry is used for the external power feed.
• For FCOA installations with Flexi Cabinet Site Support Module (FCSA), the FPRx is
installed inside the FCSA. In that case, the AC interface support on the FCSA ceiling
needs to be removed before installing the FPRx. For more information on this
installation option, see Installing FPRx and site support module in the Installing Flexi
Cabinet for Outdoor (FCOA) document.

Figure 123 Typical input cabling from right-hand side for single FPFC
It is also possible to route the cables from the left-hand side.
If required, input power for the FPFC can be fed from both sides with two DC cables.
These cables must have exactly the same dimension, type and length so that power
is distributed from them equally. This can be used, for example, in following cases:
• The original plan was to use only half of the outputs and input cable
dimensioning was done according to this, and if all outputs are used, a second
same size and length cable can be installed instead of replacing the existing
cable with a thicker one
• If distance, power demand and loss requirements show that input cable must be
thicker than the maximum supported size for the input connector, cabling from
both sides can be a solution
• In some cases two smaller cables can be more cost effective when compared
with one thicker cable because of market situation.

It is also possible to route the cables from the left-hand side.
If required, input power for the FPFC can be fed from both sides with two DC cables.
These cables must have exactly the same dimension, type and length so that power
is distributed from them equally. This can be used, for example, in following cases:
• The original plan was to use only half of the outputs and input cable
dimensioning was done according to this, and if all outputs are used, a second
same size and length cable can be installed instead of replacing the existing
cable with a thicker one
• If distance, power demand and loss requirements show that input cable must be
thicker than the maximum supported size for the input connector, cabling from
both sides can be a solution
• In some cases two smaller cables can be more cost effective when compared
with one thicker cable because of market situation.

Follow the general guidelines for locating the GPS/GNSS antenna to provide safe and
clear satellite visibility. See section Satellite visibility below for more details.
Satellite visibility
Note that a 180º clear sky view is the optimum case from the signal quality and accuracy
point of view. If the clear sky view is smaller than 180º (for example urban canyons), the
GPS/GNSS receiver operation might suffer from poor satellite visibility, depending on the
sky view angle and location on the globe (especially latitude). The GPS/GNSS receiver
might be operational, especially after the survey, even with smaller than a 180º sky view,
however, this cannot be guaranteed. Furthermore, the survey time might be longer and
the accuracy of the PPS signal poorer than with a full 180º sky visibility.
