Host Unit Overview

N I T

O

V E R V I E W

The Host Unit can be used in the following system configuration:

The Host Unit can be located with an RF source, either a Base Station (BTS), Baseband Unit (BBU), or a repeater (BDA).

The Host Unit can be used in a Host-to Host system in which you connect the Host Unit to a FlexWave Host

Expansion Unit (HEU). However, you cannot use CDIUs in a Host-to-Host system.

The Host Unit can be used in a Common-Host system in which the Host Unit connects to both Prism PRUs and

Spectrum DRUs. If you cascade a Common-Host system, you can only connect a PRU to a PRU and a DRU to a

DRU—you cannot connect a PRU to a DRU or vice versa. Also, HEUs cannot be used in a Common-Host system.

On the forward path, the Host Unit receives the RF signals from the BTS/BBU/BDA/HEU, digitizes the designated

RF bands, and then transports them over single-mode fiber to one or more of the following:

Prism Remote Unit (PRU)

Prism Fullband Remote Unit (FRU)

Prism Host Expansion Unit (HEU)

Spectrum DART Remote Unit (DRU) within the Expansion Module Group (EMG).

NOTE: This installation guide uses the term “Remote Unit” to refer collectively to the PRU, FRU, HEU, and DRU.

If the interaction between the Host Unit and a Remote Unit is specific to a Remote Unit type, the Remote

Unit type (PRU, FRU, DRU, or HEU) is identified.

On the reverse path, the Host Unit receives the digitized RF or IF signals from the Remote Unit and converts them back to RF for the BTS/BBU/BDA/HEU.

The Host Unit supports up to eight RF Digital/Analog Radio Transceiver DART (DART) cards or up to four CPRI

Digital Interface Units (CDIU), or a combination of both. DARTs are available in 35 MHz bandwidth (Classic

DARTs) and 75 MHz full bandwidth (SuperDARTs); for further information see

"DART Types” on page 14 . The

Host Unit also passes command and status information to the Remote Unit(s), and receives status information back from them.

You can sum Host Unit DARTs and/or CDIUs that link to a single Remote Unit DART to any of the following combinations:

two different Host DARTs, with the exception of TDD DARTs, which cannot be used in summing configurations

one Host DART and one CDIU path

two paths from the same CDIU or different CDIUs.

For further information on how to sum DARTs and CDIUs, refer to the

FlexWave Software Release 9.0

System Setup and Provisioning Guide

(FWPP-505).

Both DARTs and CDIUs are hot swappable, which allows for easy upgrades to additional bands without service interruption.

NOTE: While it is recommended that a BBU Lock be performed before CDIU maintenance, it is not required. In general, the BBU will restore service after a CDIU hot swap. If the BBU does not bring back service after a CDIU hot swap, you may need to request BBU actions; refer to the

Guidance for “RRH Locking” of

CDIUs Prior to DAS or BBU Maintenance Field Note

(FN15-009) for details.

Host Unit Overview

The Host Unit is designed for use within a non-condensing indoor environment, such as inside a wiring closet or a controlled-environment cabinet. The Host Unit is three Rack-Units (RUs) high and can be mounted in a 19- or

23-inch rack (for information on the Host Unit dimensions, see "Technical Specifications” on page 69 ). With the

exception of the chassis-ground stud, all controls, connectors, and indicators are accessible via the front of the

Host Unit; Figure 1

shows the main Host Unit components.

ODULES

All Host Units ship with a Fan Module, a SeRF II Board Module, a Host System III Module, and a DC Power Module factory installed. All four modules are required for the Host Unit to operate. To introduce the functionality of the

Host Unit components, this section breaks the Host Unit down by module.

NOTE: To maintain correct airflow through the Host Unit chassis, unused DART/CDIU slots must be covered with a blank faceplate with divider bars in place. The Host Unit ships with four blank faceplates. If additional blank faceplates are required, you can order them from CommScope (see

"Contacting DCCS

Global Technical Support” on page 72

).

Fan Module

The Fan Module, mounted on the left side of the Host Unit, continuously blows cool air into the Host Unit enclosure, and vents hot air out of the chassis on the right. An alarm is generated if a high-temperature condition

(>50ºC / 122ºF) occurs. The Fan Module is field replaceable and can be hot swapped. For further information, see

"Fan Module Maintenance” on page 68

.

alarm inputs that allow you to monitor external devices

four external reference inputs (EXT REF IN) used to synchronize the Host Unit to the CDIU reference output(s) when CPRI connections are present (if using more than one CDIU, the system automatically determines the external clock priority)

the reference clock to a daisy-chained Host Unit (in the FlexWave Element Management System (EMS), you set the 10MHz reference clock as the master reference input for the second Host Unit).

CAUTION! CommScope also produces a Remote System Module for Spectrum DART Remote Units (DRUs) and

Prism Host Expansion Units (HEUs). You cannot interchange the use of the Remote System II Module with the Host System III Module. Only a Host System III Module will work within the Host Unit, and

Spectrum DRUs and Prism HEUs require the use of the Remote System II Module.

Function

10 MHz reference clock input that may be used to synchronize between multiple Host Units in a daisy-chain configuration.

For CDIUs, the System III Module selects a valid 10MHz CPRI reference clock to serve as the master DAS reference. The System III Module detects all REF IN signals present in the EXT REF IN connectors (1-4) and assigns the 10MHz CPRI reference clock. If a reference input goes away (the CPRI link goes down causing

CDIU to mute REF OUT), then the System III Module automatically selects the next available EXT REF IN connector.

10 MHz reference clock output that may be used to synchronize between multiple Host Units in a daisy-chain configuration; for further information on

daisy-chain configurations see "Cascading Host Units” on page 64

The Host contacts are for the Host Unit and the Remote contacts are for any of the Remote Units in the system. If you need to monitor all alarms from the system, then both the Host and Remote contacts must be used. If the BTS does not have enough inputs, daisy-chain the Host and Remote contacts so there is only one major and one minor alarm to monitor.

Maximum voltage and current is 250V @ 2A.

Two contact closure inputs Connection points for monitoring external devices.

Dry contact only. Maximum is 3.3VDC @ 6ma.

Basic Timeslot Allocation per RF Bandwidth Transported

Each fiber pair supports 12 timeslots, or up to 75 MHz of bandwidth.

Table 7 shows the maximum bandwidth

versus the number of timeslots.

If more than 75 MHz is required per Remote Unit, up to three additional fiber pairs can be brought to the Prism

Remote or Spectrum DRU to accommodate up to 300 MHz of bandwidth.

CommScope FlexWave systems distribute signals from a common RF source (Baseband Unit) to multiple Remote

Units. In order to interface the DAS to a digital baseband unit (BBU) rather than an RF base station, a CPRI Digital

Interface Unit (CDIU) will need to be populated in the FlexWave DAS Host Unit chassis in one or more slots. CDIU supports single carrier LTE and up to 2 carriers for UMTS.

NOTE: The information about the CDIUs presented in this install guide only provide an overview of the CDIUs.

NOTE: The passband selected for

Types 3, 4, or 5 must be sufficient to accommodate the antenna carriers from both CPRI ports. For example, when using Type

A/B/C. This applies for any of the summed connections (Types 3, 4, and 5).

This configuration combines Single

MIMO with Summed SISO:

• CPRI Port 1 maps to both Path A and Path B—that must be in the same band—for MIMO deployment.

• CPRI Port 2 maps to Path A only

NOTE: This application supports placement of SISO WCDMA carriers in the same RF band as CPRI Port 1.

Installing a Host Unit

Connect the RF DART Modules to the BTS

CAUTION! To minimize cable loss, mount the Host Unit as close as possible to the BTS.

Two QMA female connectors support the RF interface between the Host Unit DART Modules and the BTS: one for the forward path (downlink) signal, and the other for the reverse path (uplink) signal.

1

Obtain the required lengths of high performance, flexible, low loss 50-ohm coaxial communications cable

(RG-400 or equivalent) for all coaxial connections.

2

Route the forward and reverse path coaxial cables between the Host Unit DART card interface and the

BTS/conditioning panel interface (per system design plan) and cut to the required length.

3

Terminate each cable as follows:

Terminate one end of the cable with a QMA male connector following the connector supplier’s recommendations. This end of the cable will connect to a Host Unit DART.

Terminate the other cable end as appropriate to mate with a DAS Tray, Active Integration Panel (AIP), or other signal-conditioning interface.

CAUTION! Running System Test in the Prism EMS (System Configuration > Perform System Test) with unterminated

Host Unit DARTs may cause a false RLM Upconvert Fault. Ensure that all Host Unit DARTs are terminated before running System Test.

You may need to take the following signal-conditioning steps to ensure proper input and signal levels to the

DART:

Convert duplexed RF from the RF sources to a simplex signal.

Provide attenuation on both the forward and reverse paths to ensure proper RF levels are met.

NOTE: CommScope recommends the use CommScope's active or passive integration panels/modules for signal conditioning.

NOTE: Validate the loaded forward path connection at the BTS. Verify that the maximum composite forward path RF signal level at the Host Unit is between -25 and +6 dBm before connecting the forward path to the Host DART RF Input. Take into consideration the current level of signal loading when conditioning the RF level going into the Host Unit DART and when adjusting the FlexWave system gain setting. The

RF input signal should be conditioned so that the maximum composite forward path RF signal level will never exceed +6 dBm. CommScope recommends a -15 dBm input into the forward path of the DART.

ONNECTIONS

Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceivers support the optical connections between the Host Unit SeRF card and the Remote Unit. The optical interfaces should be standard single-mode duplex LC (flat polished UPC).

You order the SFP transceivers separately, as needed (up to 8 per Host Unit).

Fiber Connections

For each optical SFP transceiver, there are two fiber connections: one Transmit (TX) and one Receive (RX). As the

SeRF holds up to eight SFP transceivers, there are 16 connections: eight TX and eight RX. There are two types of

SFP transceivers:

Long Reach (LR) SFP transceivers that have a 26 dB optical range

Intermediate Reach (IR) SFP transceivers that have a 13 dB optical range.

You can identify which SFP transceiver type is in use by its part number (see

Table 10 on page 33

).

15 dB LC Attenuator

When using the LR 1551nm or LR 1310nm SFP transceivers, the optical receive power specification is -9 to -27 dBm. Based on typical fiber runs, there is usually only a few dB of loss, so to put the receive level in the optimum receive range, install a 15 dB LC attenuator at the Host Unit SFP TX and RX ports. The 15 dB LC attenuator (see graphic at right) can be ordered separately from CommScope (part number FOA-INLC015).

For information on how to contact CommScope, see "Contacting DCCS Global Technical

Support” on page 72

.

NOTE: 5dB and 10dB optical attenuators are available as needed based on the optical link budget of the system

(part numbers FOA-INLC05 and FOA-INLC010, respectively).

Fiber Paths for Prism

26 dBo Budget Option: (1551 SFP: FWU-SMCW1550XVR; 1310 nm SFP: FWU-SMRU1310XVR)

The transmit path is 1551nm (from the Host Unit to the Remote Unit). Each TX port provides an optical connection for the forward path (downlink) signal.

The receive path is 1310nm (from the Remote Unit to the Host Unit). Each RX port provides an optical connection for the reverse path (uplink) signal. Each RX port can also provide the optical connection for the diversity reverse path (uplink) signal.

13 dBo Budget Option: (uses only 1310 nm SFPs: FWP-SMIR1310XVR)

The transmit path is 1310nm (from the Host Unit to the Remote Unit). Each TX port provides an optical connection for the forward path (downlink) signal.

The receive path is 1310nm (from the Remote Unit to the Host Unit). Each RX port provides an optical connection for the reverse path (uplink) signal. Each RX port can also provide the optical connection for the diversity reverse path (uplink) signal.

Cabling Fiber between Buildings

When the Host Unit and the Remote Unit are located in different buildings, route and terminate outside plant

(OSP) fiber optic cables between the Host Unit and Remote Unit distribution panels.

Figure 5

shows a diagram of typical OSP cable routing. In general, you will do the following. (For specific install

steps, go to "Install the Optical Fiber” on page 35

.)

You connect the Host Unit to a Fiber Distribution Panel (FDP), using either of the methods listed below:

Terminate the OSP fiber at the FDP; you need to field terminate a connector on the individual fiber strands of the OSP cable, then connect them inside the FDP.

Splice individual OSP fiber strands to the existing fiber splice pigtail assemblies in the FDP.

Use jumper cords to connect the Host Unit SeRF II SFP TX and RX connections to the adapters in the FDP.

Whenever possible, provide a guide, such as the FiberGuide system, to protect the fiber optic patch cords from damage and to prevent excessive bending.

If the FlexWave system uses WDM modules, only use LR 26 dB SFP transceivers.

If using the 26 dB optical SFP transceivers, use a 1551 nm SFP transceiver at the Host Unit, and a 1310 nm

SFP transceiver at the Remote Unit.

If using the 13 dB optical SFP transceivers, use the 1310 nm SFP transceiver at both the Host Unit and the

Remote Unit, but do not use optical attenuators as they are not required for 13dB optical transceivers.

If you are connecting the Host Unit to a CWDM, refer to the

Installing a Host Unit

Install the Optical Fiber

The optical connections are dependent on whether or not a WDM Host Unit module (accessory) is included in the system configuration. If the installation does not include a WDM module, complete the steps in this section. If the

installation includes a WDM module, proceed to "Optical Connections for Systems with a WDM Module” on page 60

.

NOTE: If the installation includes a CWDM, refer to the

FlexWave Prism Coarse Wavelength Division

Multiplexer User Guide

(FWPP-509).

CAUTION! This equipment uses a Class 1 Laser according to FDA/CDRH rules. Laser radiation can seriously damage the retina of the eye. Do not look into the ends of any optical fiber. Do not look directly into the optical transceiver of any digital unit or exposure to laser radiation may result. Use an optical power meter to verify active fibers. To avoid the potential of dangerous amounts of radiation exposure, immediately place a protective cap or hood over any radiating transceiver or optical fiber connector. This practice also prevents dirt particles from entering the adapter or connector.

CAUTION! You must clean the SFP optical ports at the Host Unit and at the Remote Unit, and clean the tip of the fiber-patch cords. Failure to clean the ports and cord tips may result in an optical RX or TX alarm state.

CAUTION! Improper handling can damage fiber optic cables. Always allow sufficient fiber length to permit routing of patch cords and pigtails without severe bends. Do not bend fiber optic cable more sharply than the minimum recommended bend radius specified by the cable manufacturer. Do not apply more pulling force to the cable than specified.

If a WDM module is not present in the system, do the following to connect the optical fibers.

1

Do one of the following as appropriate to the installation.

Obtain two fiber-patch cords that are of sufficient length to reach from the Host Unit to the Remote Unit, which may be located in the same equipment rack as the Host Unit.

Obtain two patch cords that are of sufficient length to reach from the Host Unit to the Fiber Patch Panel.

2

Designate one of the fiber-patch cords as the TX path link and the other as the RX path link and attach an identification label or tag next to the connector.

3

Remove the dust caps from the Host Unit SeRF II SFP optical ports and the patch-cord connectors that will connect to the Host Unit SeRF II SFP optical ports. Leave the dust caps on all unused SFP optical ports and patch-cord connectors.

4

Clean each patch cord connector following the patch cord supplier’s recommendations.

5

Follow the approved cleaning technique to clean the Host Unit SFP optical port.

6

If required, connect the LC attenuator into the SFP and then to the patch cord. (See "15 dB LC Attenuator” on page 31

.)

powering from a fuse panel, where:

The Host DC Power board is 89% efficient. The numbers shown in

Table 12 reflect the DC power needed by

the Host Unit to power a given module

The fuse selection criteria should include the total power divided by the minimum voltage. For example, with a 48V DC system that shuts off at 44VDC, and a Host Unit that requires 240 Watts, the fuse must be:

≥5.5 amps (240/44).

Power Option 2 Prism and Spectrum:

Connect the Host Unit to a Fuse Panel (21-60 Vdc)

The Host Unit is powered by ± 21 to ± 60 Vdc power (nominal ± 24 or ± 48 Vdc), which is fed to the Host Unit through a connector located on the front of the module. Power to the Host Unit can be supplied through a fuse panel (available separately).

CAUTION! If using a fuse panel, protect each Host Unit with a separate fuse.

The Host DC Power Module (DC to DC), located on the lower left side of the chassis, provides the On/Off switch for the Host Unit (see

"DC Power Module” on page 11

).

A three position terminal block is also provided for connecting the power wires. Power to the Host Unit can be supplied through a fuse panel, such as the 20 position PowerWorx GMT Fuse Panel (available separately).

CAUTION! Protect the power with an GMT fuse appropriate for this installation. Use the information in

"Calculate the Power Consumption” on page 38

to determine the correct fuse size to use.

When it is desirable or necessary to combine transmit and receive path optical signals from one FlexWave system onto a single optical fiber, use the Wavelength Division Multiplexer (WDM) system, which is an accessory product. The WDM option consists of Host and Remote WDM Modules. The Host WDM modules are the same for

Prism and Spectrum Hosts. The Remote WDM modules for DRUs and HEUs are contained in a WDM rack-mount chassis, whereas the Remote WDM Modules for Prism are contained in an internal fiber jumper within the PRU.

Both the Host WDM Module and the Remote Unit WDM Module consist of a bi-directional wavelength division multiplexer, as shown in

Figure 7 .

Each WDM module supports a single Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) port on the Host Unit, but a WDM chassis can support up to eight WDM modules, which allows the sharing of the WDM chassis among multiple Host Units, dependent on the SFP transceiver port counts and system configuration. That is, the eight WDM modules allow a fully loaded Host Unit with eight SFP modules or multiple partially loaded Host Units (for a maximum of eight total SFP transceivers). The WDM Host module-mounting shelf installs in the equipment rack with the Host Unit.

Cascading Host Units

A SC A D I N G

H

O S T

U

N I T S

NOTE: Host-to-Host and Multi-Host systems do not support cascading.

FlexWave systems can be cascaded, which allows a single sector to be simulcasted from Remote Unit to Remote

Unit. By utilizing a fiber daisy chain between Remote Units, you eliminate the need for fiber home-runs between the common Host Unit and simulcasted Remote Units.

Electrical cascading allows you to maximize fiber efficiency, by eliminating the need for individual home-run/star topology configurations, thereby saving on fiber costs, as well as fiber installation costs.

Figure 14

shows a cascade system, in which there is one Host Unit with a single Remote Unit connected to it, and then a second Remote Unit connected to the first Remote Unit. In this configuration, the RF signal passes from the

Host Unit through Remote Unit 1 where it is retransmitted to Remote Unit 2; RF will be present on both Remote

1 and Remote 2.

Host Unit Remote Unit 1 Remote Unit 2

Figure 14.

Cascaded System

Cascade restrictions and requirements are listed below.

Up to 8 Remote Units can be cascaded in a system, and each Remote Unit can only subtend one Remote Unit that must be connected directly to it.

The maximum number of Remote Units that can be cascaded is 16.

A Remote Unit can only cascade to another Remote Unit of the same type. That is, a PRU can only cascade another PRU, and a DRU can only cascade another DRU.

Each Remote Unit in a cascade must contain the same DART type or a subset of the DARTs contained in the first Remote Unit of the chain. The DARTs in each Remote Unit of a cascade must be in the same slots as the

DARTs in the first Remote Unit of the chain. DART linking to the Host Unit is the same on every Remote Unit in a cascade.

The fibers in and out of a Remote Unit must follow a N+4 rule. That is, if a Remote Unit has an input fiber on

SFP 1, then the output is on SFP5. This applies to all Remote Unit, with the exception of the last cascaded

Remote Unit as it would not require outgoing fibers. See Figure 15 on page 65

for an illustration of this rule.

All cascaded Remote Units must have the same number of upstream (RX) and downstream (TX) fibers. If 4 fibers from the Host Unit are directed to the Remote Unit, 4 fibers must cascade to the next Remote Unit. The last Remote Unit in a cascade does not have downstream fibers. This ensures that all RF on a Remote Unit can be cascaded. See

Figure 15 on page 65

for an illustration of this rule.

Cascading Host Units

FlexWave systems can be configured to operate in Point-to-Multipoint Star and Cascade configurations.

In a point-to-multipoint star configuration, the Host Unit provides the interface between a single group of BTSs

and up to eight Remote Units, each of which is linked directly to the Host Unit by an optical fiber path. Figure 16

shows a Prism system in a star configuration.

Star Configuration

In a point-to-multipoint star configuration, in the forward path (Host Unit to Remote Unit), the digitized RF signals are replicated for transport to each of the Remote Units. In the reverse path (Remote Unit to Host Unit),

RF signals from each Remote Unit are transported independently to the Host Unit over dedicated fibers. Within the Host Unit, the signals from all the Remote Units in each band are digitally combined, and a composite RF signal for each band is presented to the corresponding BTS.

Continuous airflow to cool the Host Unit is provided by the Fan Module that is mounted on the left side of the Host

Unit chassis. The cooling fans blow cool air into the chassis, and heated air is exhausted through the vent openings on the right side of the chassis. This constant movement of air requires that the Fan Module be placed on a maintenance/replacement schedule:

The Fan Module of a Host Unit installed in a controlled environment, such as a base station or office environment, should meet the 40,000-hour fan life.

The Fan Module of a Host Unit installed in a dusty environment or an environment where there is a large range in ambient temperature (~0°C to 50°C) will require more maintenance and may not meet the forty-thousand-hour fan life.

You should also check the Fan Module should either of these Host alarms occur:

– Fan Fault

(

fwuHstSysCardFanFault

)

– Temperature High

(

fwuHstOverTempFault

).

Regardless of the environment in which the Host Unit is installed, at the minimum, check the Fan Module on an annual basis. Verify the following:

intake and exhaust vents are clear of obstructions and/or debris

ambient temperature is less than 50C.

The Fan Module is field replaceable and can be hot swapped. Should you need to replace the Fan Module, refer to the

FlexWave Host Unit and Host Expansion Unit Module Replacement Guide

(FWPP-514).
