ZXWR RNC Shelf Structure

Uses BCTC as Backboard ,takes charge of

processing RNC control plane (RCB&RSB) and
Control Shelf
also includes ROMB,CLKG/ICMG,CHUB. UIMC
has the function of Switching signaling data.

Uses BUSN/BGSN as Backboard, takes charge of pro

cessing RNC user plane (RUB) and includes GIPI, AP
Resource Shelf BE,DTB,IMAB,SDTB. GUIM/UIMU has the function of
Switching signaling and traffic data.
If there are more than two resource subracks, switch s
ubrack is needed to switch data.

Uses BPSN as Backboard, takes charge of

Switch Shelf traffic data switch , supplies switch unit for User
plane.

ZXSDR BS8900 Hardware Structure

 The BS8900 can be configured flexibly with the outdoor RF cabinet, site supp
orting cabinet, and battery cabinet based on the actual capacity and the on-site
requirement. The outdoor RF cabinet holds up to six outdoor RF units. The site
support cabinet holds the power supply system and baseband pool unit. The 6
U space can also hold other devices such as the transmission equipment. The
battery cabinet can hold two sets of 150 AH batteries.

 The D-B8200 is composed of the baseband unit B8200 and RRU (R88
40, R8860, or R8810). The combination of B8200 and R8840 makes a
macro cell distributed BTS in single mode. The combination of B8200
and R8860 makes a macro cell distributed BTS in double mode. The c
ombination of B8200 and R8810 makes a distributed indoor micro cell
BTS.
