Scenario-7
UMTS swap
This scenario is showing the 3G
swap
Distributed site: Original 3G RU is
installed on the tower.
During the swap, dismantle the original RRU and install ZTE
R8881/R8863 in the old location. Connect the jumpers from RRU
to the 2100M port of the antenna.

Macro site: Original 3G RU in the cabinet

For some sharing site, there is no space on the tower to install RRU, The
RRUs will be installed on the ground with a pole. During the swap,
original feeders will be reused, connect the jumpers from RRU to
original feeders.

FS- RRU Relations

R8881 connection

The connections between FS and R8881 should comply with the following
rules:
In case of using one FS board: The FS board is placed at slot3 of BBU, An
additional FS board will be configured at slot 4 when there are more than 6
sectors.
Each sector takes one FS port. The secondary R8881 for the same sector will be
cascaded to the first R8881.
The ports of FS board are numbered from 0 to 5 (from right to left).The RRU units
are connected to the FS ports in the following order from port No. 0 to port No. 5:
Not more than 6 sectors:

GSM 900 R8881 in order of cells (lower at first) takes 0, 1, and 2

DCS1800 R8881 in order of cells (lower at first) takes 3, 4, and 5

R8881 connection CONT

More than 6 sectors:
GSM 900 R8881 in order of cells (lower at first) takes 0, 1, 2,
3..(FS board in slot3)
DCS1800 R8881 in order of cells (lower at first) takes 0, 1, 2,
3..(FS board in slot4)
UMTS2100 R8881 in order of cells (lower at first) takes 3,4,5
ports of the FS board in slot4.

R8863 connection
The connections between FS and R8863 should comply with the
following rules:
In case of using one FS board: The FS board is placed at slot3 of
BBU.
Each R8863 takes one FS port. The secondary R8863 will directly
connect to the FS board instead of cascading.
The ports of FS board are numbered from 0 to 5 (from right to
left).The RRU units are connected to the FS ports in the following
order from port No. 0 to port No. 5:
An additional FS board will be added in the 3G site.
GSM 900 R8863 in order of cells (lower at first) takes 0, 1,
and 2
DCS1800 R8863 in order of cells (lower at first) takes 3, 4,
and 5
UMTS2100 R8863 in order of cells (lower at first) takes 0,1,
and 2 of FS in slot4

RET connection
R8881
The distance between RRU to Antenna
is less than 6m ,One standard AISG
cable for each sector.

R8881 CONT
The distance between RRU and Antenna is more than 6m ,NSBT and
ASBT will be configured for each sector, connect RRU and NSBT with
a AISG special cable (DB15 to AISG), and ASBT to the RCU with a
AISG standard cable (AISG to AISG).

RET R8863
An AISG special cable connect the
R8863 to the RCU for sector A, then
cascade the RCU for sector B and C.

Power Supply Solution

All RRUs will be connected to the LLVD 25A
breakers on existing rectifier.
IF more than 6 RRUs are configured
R8881: parallel connect two RRUs to one breaker.
R8863: connect one RRU to one 25A breaker, add
additional breaker when there are more than 6
R8863.
DCPD7 will be used in the BC cabinet for the BBU&IDU power
supply, which is connected to the BLVD breaker of the existing
rectifier.

DCPD7

New power system swap.

As Mobilink planned, the new Rectifier will be
installed.
Before new rectifier installed, an new ATS and DB
will be installed outdoor which will provide the
power to the new rectifier.
During the secondary swap, reconnect the power
cable of original rectifier to the new built ATS and
DB. After all equipments working normally,
dismantle the original ATS and DB.

Transmission solution
In the phase 2, Ericson is using IP for the
BTS transmission. All the phase 2 site will
use an Ethernet cable connecting from IDU
to CC board.
For the outdoor sites, a LPU will be
configured for the Lightning protection Unit
(LPU). All the signalling cables which is lying
out of the BC cabinet, should be connected
to the LPU first

Labels Guideline
The following items should be abided when fix labels:
Labels shall be affixed facing the same direction, and the side
that indicates the cabling direction shall face upward or face the
side of operation and maintenance for ease of reading.
Both ends of each cable (power cable, grounding cable,
transmission cable, jumper wire, and so on) shall be affixed with
labels.
Labels shall be affixed in a neat and workmanlike manner.
A label shall be affixed 200 mm from each end of a feeder, or 20
mm from each end of a power cable, network cable, signal cable
or fibre.
Affix labels on the cables distributed vertically and horizontally
in the way shown in the following figure.

Feeder and Jumper Labels

Requirement
[Label Format]
Sector ID- ANT1/2
[Labelling Conditions]
Sector ID: Ranges from S1 to S4
ANT1 for TX/RX, ANT2 for RX

Optical Fibre Labels

Requirement
[Label Format]
Sector ID- OPB/OPR
[Labelling Conditions]
Sector ID: Ranges from S1 to S4
OPB: Used on BBU side; OPR: Used
on RRU side

Optical Fibre Labels Requirement

CONT
When connect RRUs to BBU FS board with optical fibre, its
very easy to make mistake. So ZTE require all the partners use
temporary labels on the fibre's when lay them.
The temporary label for fibres requirements are as follows:
[Label Format]
Fiber-SystemID-SectorID-1/2
[Labelling Conditions]
System ID:GSM900 DCS1800
Sector ID: Ranges from S1 to S4
1/2 means the fiber quantity in one sector

cable of BS8800, ILP ,DCPD4 and so
on.
