• General Site Requirements

• Stack Installation

• Wall Installation

• Pole Installation

• Indoor Cabinet Installation

• Outdoor Cabinet Installation

• Other Optional Installation

• Feederless site requirements






Flexi Multiradio BTS GSM/EDGE SiteRequirements













General Site RequirementsPlanning and preparing the sites

• Before installing the BTS, the site must be properly surveyed and prepared, and all requiredexternal connections must be correctly installed.

• Any special requirements for installation must also be identified during the survey.

• The site is accessible, adequately lit and safe for working.

• Safety distance calculations are made and taken into account.

• The site is prepared according to drawings.• The site survey is complete.

• The Site Survey Report is available.• The site is clean.

• Product delivery is complete.• All wiring is done in accordance with national electric code.• Needed equipment is available as defined in the Site Survey Report.

• Sufficient service clearances are available.

Check that the BTS can be installed safely:

• Grounding busbar,

• Mains power (AC or DC, depending on the site),

• Transmission connection point.

Verify that the following external cabinet connections are available:





General Site RequirementsGeneral requirements (1/2)

Ensure that the following BTS site requirements are met:

• All required documentation is available, for example, site-specificinstallation instructions.

• When radio link transmission is used, the line-of-sight to the far endradios has been ensured.

• External connections for the cabinet are available: site groundingpoint, mains power (AC or DC according to the site), and transmissionconnection point. Furthermore, AC or DC distribution panel and ACelectric are available for power tools.

• Main grounding (earthing) is installed and tested.

• Floor or wall surface is even (installation base flatness requirement is2 mm (0.08 in.).





General Site RequirementsGeneral requirements (2/2)

Ensure that the following BTS site requirements are met: (cont’d)

6. Wall or pole at the BTS site is strong enough to withstand the weightof the BTS.

7. Wall or pole at the BTS site is strong enough to meet earthquakerequirement Bellcore GR-63-CORE Zone 4 (only applicable inearthquake areas).

8. Pole at the BTS site is strong enough to withstand the wind load.

9. The BTS is not taken out of its delivery package until the siteconstruction work is finished and the site is clean and dry.

10.Site security is established so the BTS and other units can remainundisturbed at the site.

11.Make sure technician can take the BTS to the installation site. For

example, in roof top installations, the hole through which you take theBTS to the roof must be large enough.





General Site RequirementsAntenna jumper cable requirements

Antenna jumper cables are not included in the Flexi Multiradio BTS

GSM/EDGE product delivery. Follow these guidelines when selecting

antenna jumper cables:

• 1/2" or 3/8" antenna jumper cables can be used.

• 1/2" antenna cable connectors can be connected directly to the module if a

right angle connector is used.

• The length should be determined based on the Flexi Multiradio BTS

installation option (for example pole, wall, cabinet, 3rd party cabinet) and the

distance of the BTS from the antenna feeder line.

• Antenna jumper cables must be rated IP65 or better .

• Super flexible antenna jumper cables with smaller connector heads make

installation easier.





General Site RequirementsSite Earth and Grounding Principle

• BTS Site Grounding :

– Site Earthing

– Site Equipment Grounding

• To protect the BTS from damaging overvoltages through antenna equipment,

communication cables, or power supply lines, grounding cabling must be

planned and installed before the installation of the base station

• The function of the site earth is to convoy the lethal and hazardous voltages

and electric currents from the site main grounding point (main grounding

busbar) to the earth.

• The earthing (grounding) resistance target of the BTS site is ≤10 Ω

• The cross-sectional area of the Main Earthing Conductor shall not be

smaller than live (L) and neutral never less than 6 mm2, recommended size is

16 mm2

• Grounding must have a fixed, non-removable connection





General Site RequirementsRecommendation for BTS Grounding Planning

• Grounding cable cross-section has to be more than any of AC or DC

power feeding cable cross-section• The grounding cable is connected with screws to the BTS mains

grounding point

• The grounding cable must be connected to a main grounding busbar with a minimum of 6 mm2 grounding cable

• Route the grounding cables as directly as possible from theequipment to the grounding point.

• The grounding cables should not be run parallel with power cables.

• The external antenna feeders must also be grounded according to the

local legislation if the antennas are exposed to lightning.





General Site RequirementsMains Power Requirement

18 to 32 V DC24 V DCDC Voltage with optional SCModule

184 to 276 V AC (45 – 66 Hz)200 – 240 V AC AC Voltage with optionalFPMA

Permitted Operating VoltageNominal Operating VoltageProperty

Permitted operating voltage

• The minimum cross-section of the mains power copper (Cu) conductor is thefollowing:

• When 220-240 VAC is used, power cables must be 1.5 - 2.5 mm2 (15...13 AWG)

• When 100-110 VAC is used (split phase), power cables must be 1.5 - 2.5mm2 (15...13 AWG)

• When 48 VDC is used, power cables must be 25...35 mm2 (4...2 AWG)

-FCOA is in the picture

-When raining, some water may enter the cabinet through the door and back wall.

It is important that the water can exit via the holes on the cabinet floor. If the

cabinet is exposed to rain, it must be installed at least 20...50 mm off the groundby using, for example, an I-beam rail, metal grating or C-bars.

-FCOA can be equipped with an FCFA air filter. Basically, it over-pressurizes the

cabinet.

-Heating can be used to assist that in temperatures below -10C BUT there is no

heater unit in the Flexi BTS product structure. Below -10º C, the Dual TRX Module

heats itself, and the other modules function in the whole operational temperature

range.

Feederless Site RequirementsPower supply for Feederless sites

• The feederless site concept supports both AC and 48 V DC power

supply.

• Connect the power supply to each sector or base so that individual

sectors can be turned off for service without disturbing operation for

the rest of the BTS -> e.g. have a dedicated circuit breaker on site

support cabinet’s DIN rail for every local RF Module(s).

• For easier maintenance and fault investigation, it is recommended

that separate, fused DC input lines are used for the System Module

(ESMB/C), and each RF Module.

• Chaining can also used between RF modules when multiple RF

Modules are required in a sector.





Feederless Site RequirementsPower supply for Feederless sites –Grounding kit for DC cable

• If the Flexi Multiradio System Module (ESMB/C)is located more than 10 meters (32.8 ft.) from

the site support system in outdoor installations,

then the Flexi System Over Voltage Protection

(FSEC) (or other similar OVP) is required for the

DC power feed.

• Proper lightning protection of a remote RF

Module also requires proper grounding of its DC

feed cable -> grounding kit for the DC feed must

be used.

• Shrinking sleeves for ingress protection for the

peeled area of the cable is also required. These

are also included in the delivery.

Flexi Multiradio BTS GSM/EDGE Installation Planning / 300810102 ©Nokia S iemens Networks

Feederless Site RequirementsGeneral issues to be considered when installing the DC cables of thefeederless site

• In case of a power break, the BTS functions with batteries. The

output voltage of the batteries starts to decrease in time• The batteries should be installed in the proximity of the System

Module to minimize additional voltage drop before the RF Module.

• If the cables are under a protective cover, the temperature of thecables can increase. This increases the resistance of the cables andthe voltage drop is greater between the System Module and RFModule.

• The power dissipation of the DC cable adds to the powerconsumption of the site. Examples:

• Power dissipation with a RF module (with max. load of 3x60W) ofthe 100m DC cable is ~100 W when 25 mm2 is used and ~160

W when 16mm2 is used.





Feederless Site RequirementsDC Cabling Principles and Shielding

The basic procedure is to use a locally supplied standard DC cable.

DC cable extension:

• There is an additional NSN IP55 2m DC cable in the FSEC salespackage. By cutting both cables in one end and using IP55protection to both the RF and System Module they can be used for extending the DC cable distance.

• A long DC cable needs to be shielded and grounded.

• Connection of the long DC cable and NSN IP55 cable isrecommended to be done in an IP55 outdoor weather protectedspace, e.g. in Flexi External OVP box (FSEC).

• The FSEC clamping range is from 19 to 28 mm DC cable diameters.





Feederless Site RequirementsPreparing a DC feeder cable

Local System Module

Remote RF Module





Feederless Site RequirementDC cable requirements

1) If AC input power is used, these cables are the black 25 mm2 (4 AWG) DC

output cables pre-installed on the FPMA.

2) NOTE: proper lightning protection of a remote RF Module also requires

proper grounding of its DC feed cable. If the remote RF Module is installed on

a mast, the DC power feed cable must have a grounding jacket. A

grounding kit is also required.

DC power feed to Remote RF Module 2)





Feederless Site RequirementDC cables and ESMB/C input voltage

• The DC cable used for power feed to remote RF Modules can be 16-35mm2 (6 -2 AWG), depending on the distance and minimum supply voltage

at System Module input.• See the table below for minimum input voltages when 3 RF Module (FXxx)

are connected to FR Modules and are transmitting at full power.

Note that not using the recommended cable thickness reduces battery backup

times.

• When the Flexi Multiradio BTS GSM/EDGE System Module (ESMB/C) is located more than 10 meters

(32.8 ft.) away from the site support system in outdoor installations, the Flexi System Over

Voltage Protection (FSEC) or other similar over voltage protection (OVP) box is required for the DCpower feed.

• An example of this when the Flexi Multiradio BTS is installed at the top of a mast and the site support

system is located at the bottom of the mast. In this case, the OVP for the site support system does

not protect the Flexi Multiradio BTS, therefore an FSEC or other OVP must be installed on or next to the

BTS.





Feederless Site RequirementFlexi System Over Voltage Protection (FSEC) OVP

• Overvoltage protections is required in installations with arisk of overvoltage by induction or indirect lightning(Class II): feederless and distributed installations

• FSEC protects Flexi BTS sub-modules against surgepulse(s) in power feeding lines.

• The FSEC gives Class II (C, T2) protection for DC powerfeed

– The same mechanics can also be used for AC linedevices, but the connectors and OVP devices need tobe changed.

• The FSEC box can also be used for altering the DC cablediameter

• FSEC connectors: screw terminals for input and outputcables. There are four pieces of screw terminals for AWG2 (35 mm2) cables and for earthing two PEs (Protecting

earth GND) terminals for AWG 2/35 mm2 cable size.• Can be installed on top of casings, cabinet roofs, or on

poles

Dimensions:

• Width 95 mm

• Height 155 mm

• Depth 155 mm

NOTE: FSEC can also be replaced with a locally purchased protecting box.

GSM ConfigurationWCDMA Configuration

WCDMA and GSM concurrent mode configurations

• Flexi Multiradio BTS is a multiradio BTS, which means that multiple radio technologies can be

used concurrently.

• The 3-branch RF Module supports GSM/EDGE and WCDMA simultaneously.

• The System Modules are separate for GSM/EDGE and for WCDMA.• The GSM/EDGE System Module (ESMB/C) supports up to 18 or 36 TRX capacity, that is, two 3-

branch RF Module capacity, and it has power and OPT connections for four radios (or radio

chains) or System Modules.

• In the concurrent mode, the RF Modules as well as the antenna lines can be shared between

the System Modules and different radio technologies.

• The System Modules have to be interconnected in concurrent operation.

• The Flexi Multiradio BTS is seen as a separate logical network element for different radio

technologies with common radio resources.

• In concurrent mode either ESMB/C or FSMx can be the synchronization master of Flexi

Multiradio BTS while the other is the slave.

• The operator can define the synchronization master while commissioning the BTS.

Antenna Line





Antenna LineAntenna jumper cable requirements

Antenna jumper cable requirements:

• 1/2" or 3/8" antenna jumper cables can be used. 1/2"antenna cable connectors can be connected directly to themodule if a right angle connector is used.

• The length should be determined based on the FlexiMultiradio BTS GSM/EDGE installation option (forexample pole, wall, cabinet, 3rd party cabinet) and thedistance of the BTS from the antenna feeder line.

• Antenna jumper cables must be IP54-rated or better.

Basically, Jumper cables are low–loss and flexible, which allows easier

connection to units such as the WCDMA MHA unit without causing

unnecessary stress to the connected units (vs. feeder cables).

Safety (Caution and Warning)





• The module is heavy. Take care when lifting the module.

• Risk of personal injury. Do not touch the fans.

• Risk of physical injury. Secure the screws with a thread-lockingcompound in pole and wall installations.

• A fully equipped cabinet is heavy. Make sure that the hoisting belt orrope is sufficiently strong.

• The equipment is heavy. Take care when lifting it. This equipmentgenerates electromagnetic fields. If performing installation ormaintenance procedures on a base transceiver station (BTS), makesure that the transmitter is switched off.

• The antenna generates electromagnetic fields at radio

frequencies. Do not cross the compliance boundary.

Safety (Caution and Warning)Handling the base station

Warnings








• The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) module is classifiedacceptable as a laser Class 1 product. Using SFP modules otherthan those specified by Nokia Siemens Networks may result inexposure to laser radiation that exceeds the limits for laser Class 1.

• Risk of short circuit. Make sure that all the breakers on the powerdistribution unit (PDU) front panel are in the OFF position before youconnect the cables.

• Danger of eye damage from invisible laser radiation from theMultiradio System Module and the RF Module optical fibreconnector! Always switch off the laser before detaching the opticalfibre from the connector.

• Danger of eye damage from invisible laser radiation from the

transmission sub-module FIYA or FIQA optical fibre connector! Always switch off the laser before detaching the optical fibre from theconnector.

Safety (Caution and Warning)Handling, installing, and replacing units

Warnings








• This equipment generates electromagnetic fields. If performinginstallation or maintenance procedures on a base transceiver station

(BTS), make sure that all the transmitters in the area are switched off.

• Electrostatic discharge (ESD) may damage the modules. Wear an

ESD wrist strap or use a corresponding method when handling the

modules. The ESD wrist strap does not work before the plinth is

earthed (grounded).

• If the RF Module carries the BCCH transceiver (TRX), the whole sector

may be disabled. In these cases, block the sector.

• The optical fibre connector is fragile. Handle it with care.

Safety (Caution and Warning)Handling the base station

Cautions








• Optical fibres are sensitive. The presence of contaminants will lowerthe mechanical strength of the optical fibre and may dampen the

transmission of light in the fibres. Clean all optical fibre connectors

before installation using an optical fibre connector cleaning kit.

• Incorrect cables and seals may not provide secured environmental

protection. Use only tested IP55 class cables with seals provided by

Nokia Siemens Networks.

• If bus cables are looped back to the system module, ongoing calls

may be dropped or a module may freeze until the loop is removed.

Do not loop bus cables back to the system module

• Overbending the optical fibre cables damages the cables and can

detach or damage the connectors. Do not bend optical cables beyond

the minimum radius of 70 mm.

Safety (Caution and Warning)Connecting cables

Cautions








Safety (Caution and Warning)Grounding

• Purpose of Equipment grounding is a bond all electrical

equipment on the site, to the same potential because ofequipment functionality reasons and electrical safetyregulations.

• Purpose of Lightning protection is to lead lightning overvoltage surge straight to the ground to protect telecomequipments from damaging effect of the lightning.

• MW outdoor unit (FlexiHopper) has to be preferablygrounded to the Equipment ground.
