The UMG8900 is connected to IP network through 100 Mbit/s standard Ethernet port,
and then connected to the devices over the network. In this case, you must install
routers and LAN Switches, and lay the network cables to prepare the interfaces to
the IP network before installation, thus ensuring that the UMG8900 can access the
IP network normally.
IV. Building Integrated Timing Supply System
The UMG8900 provides embedded signaling gateway. When it also serves as the
signaling gateway to get interconnected with SS7 links, it must synchronize the
clock of the links at the opposite end. If the building integrated timing supply system
(BITS) is provided by you, you must complete installing the BITS and make access
preparation before the UMG8900 hardware installation.
2.5.6 Checking Other Facilities
There must be a workbench in compliance with ESD-preventive requirements in the

control room. It is used to install maintenance terminal, network management
workstation and printer.
Desk, chair, power socket for computer, and phone set are necessary during
installation. It is required to prepare for any possibilities according to the site
conditions.
2.6 Unpacking and Inspection
In the non-turn-key project, both the customer and the project supervisor (engineer
from Huawei or cooperator) are required to be present at the unpacking site. If either
2-5
is absent at the unpacking site, the party who unpacks shall take the responsibility
for any errors occurring to the articles.
In the turn-key project, it is the project supervisor and the order management
engineer who unpack, check and accept, hand over the articles, and make a
confirmation with signatures.
Before unpacking, both parties should check if the packing cases are damaged. If so,
stop unpacking and contact the order management engineer at the local office of
Huawei, waiting for the handling. Meanwhile, check if the quantity of cases on the
site agrees with the packing list, if the place of delivery agrees with the actual
installation place, and if the articles have been inversed during the transportation. If
there is any disagreement, the project supervisor should feed back the Article
Problem Feedback Form confirmed by the customer with a signature to the order
management engineer at the local office within 3 days.
After all the above inspections are ok, unpack the cases to check and accept the
articles.
There are two kinds of packages: wooden crate and cartons. The unpacking tools
should be used accordingly.
2.6.1 Unpacking Wooden Crate
I. Overview of Unpacking Wooden Crate
Caution:
The wooden case is direction-oriented and should not be placed upside down.
Otherwise, fatal damages would be caused to the product.
Wooden crate is used to package cabinets and batteries. A packaged cabinet is

composed of wooden board, angle steel, tongue, and foam corner protector. Before
unpacking the wooden crate, move the packing crate to the equipment room or
nearby (if there is sufficient space), to avoid damage to the cabinet when moving the
cabinet.
II. Operation Procedures of Unpacking Wooden Crate
The unpacking steps are as shown in Figure 2-1.

Figure 2-1 Unpacking the wooden crate
The unpacking steps are as follows.

1) Insert the spanner into the tongue holes in the cover, and turn the spanner to
straighten the tongues, as shown in Figure 2-1 (a).
2) Lift and remove the covers, as shown in Figure 2-1 (b).
3) Straighten the tongues in the surrounded wooden board, and then remove the
surrounded wooden board, as shown in Figure 2-1 (c).
4) When moving or lifting the cabinet, use both hands to hold the firm parts of the
cabinet, such as brackets or major frames, instead of other parts, such as cable
brackets and cable fixing beam, to avoid damage to the cabinet or personal
injury. Remove the lining boards of the cabinet on the installation site to avoid
damage to signal cables and boards when moving or lifting the cabinet.
2.6.2 Unpacking Carton
The unpacking steps are as shown in Figure 2-2
2-7
Figure 2-2 Unpacking the wooden cartons
Generally, the carton is used to pack various boards, fibers, network cables, terminal
equipments and other accessories. The board is placed in an antistatic bag for
transportation. Inside the bag, there is a desiccant to keep it dry. The tool to open
the carton is generally a paper knife.
Unpack the carton as follows:

1) Rip the adhesive tape along the joint seams using a paper knife. Be careful not
to insert the knife too deep, avoiding damage to the boards.
2) Unpack the carton and take out the inner goods.
Caution:
z If the equipment is moved from an environment with relatively low temperature

and humidity to one with relatively high temperature and humidity, do not unpack
it until at least 30 minutes later. Otherwise, the moisture may condense on the
equipment surface and thus cause damage to the equipment.
z Antistatic measures should be taken for unpacking boards so that boards will not
be damaged.
2.6.3 Acceptance and Handover
I. Acceptance
The inspector should carefully check and accept the articles piece by piece with
reference to the name, type and quantity of the articles stated on the packing list.
The acceptance of articles mainly includes the following aspects:

z Appearance inspection: check if there are any defects on the appearance of the
rack, if the rack is secure and fast, if there is any looseness or damage, if the
2-8
identification is legible, and if the nameplate and decorating plates are

completely installed and if they meet the use requirements.
z Integrity inspection: check if all the parts and accessories necessary for the
installation of racks are matching and complete.
z Inspection of computer terminal: check if the display, keyboard and mouse are
all ready and if there is any damage on them.
z Board inspection: check if the board type agrees with the description in packing
list, and if there is any broken printed circuit boards or any components
detached from the board.
Note:
The project supervisor should take a major role in the inspection of equipment and
components whose electric characteristics are apt to be affected.
The inspected articles should be placed by types. The packing cases after opened
should be saved until the customer signs on the packing list.
II. Handover
After the acceptance, both parties must sign on the “Packing List” to confirm that
there is no problem with the articles. After that, the articles are handed over to the
customer.
During the inspection, if “outstanding articles” is stated in the packing list, it is

necessary for the project supervisor to feed it back to the order management
engineer at the local office. The order management engineer will urge the relevant
department of Huawei to deliver the outstanding articles as soon as possible. Then
both parties sign on the packing list. For any short, wrong, or extra shipment, or for
any damage of articles, both parties should sign the “Unpacking Inspection Memo”
and “Packing List”. Moreover, the project supervisor should fill in the “Article
Problem Feedback Form” and feed it back to the order management engineer at the
local office within 3 days. The project supervisor should also be responsible for well
keeping the original condition of articles with problems as well as the inner and outer
packing, for future investigation and verification.
If the articles are damaged or lost due to the improper keeping of the customer party
after the customer accepts them, the customer party shall bear all the responsibility.
During the implementation, if there are any damaged parts or any other parts need
to be replaced or re-issued, the project personnel should carefully fill in the “Article
Problem Feedback Form” and feed it back in time to the article manager at the local
office to put it on records.

U-SYS UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 3 Installing Cabinets
Chapter 3 Installing Cabinets

z Introduction to Cabinet
z Installing Cabinets on ESD-Preventive Floor
z Installing Cabinets on Cement Floor
3.2 Introduction to Cabinet
The UMG8900 adopts standard 19-inch N68-22 cabinet, with flexible and simple
structure, and powerful versatility. The dimensions are 2200 mm (height with door
lintel) x 600 mm (width) x 800 mm (depth). Five cabinets can satisfy the requirements
for full configuration of the UMG8900.
According to different equipment rooms, a cabinet can be installed on the cement

floor or ESD-preventive floor. When two or more cabinets are installed in the same
row, they must be combined and fixed.
Note:
Wear clean gloves when touching the surfaces of cabinets or frames.
3.3 Installing Cabinets on ESD-Preventive Floor
3.3.1 Introduction to Supports and Floor Holder-Slide Rail Assemblies
I. Introduction to Supports
If N68-22 cabinets are installed in equipment room with ESD-preventive floor, N800
series supports are used.
Supports, made of welded steel plates, are used to block the cabinets up, thus
facilitating floor paving and cabling. Before the whole set of equipment is grounded,
3-1
insulation plates must be installed under the supports, and insulating coverings must
be added to the expansion bolts to satisfy the insulation requirements.
N800 series supports have four kinds of components, of which three kinds are height
adjustable and one kind is of fixed height.
The appearance of the N800 supports is shown in Figure 3-1. The height adjustment
range of each kind of component is shown in Table 3-1.

Note: The height of floor refers to the distance between the upper surface of
ESD-preventive floor and the cement floor.
The height of N800 series I, II and III components can be adjusted within their
adjustable ranges, which is realized by means of the relative move of upper beam and
lower beam.
3-2
N800 IV component is the support of fixed height, which is applicable to ultra-high and
ultra-low floors. The lowest applicable floor height of this component is 100 mm.
II. Introduction to Floor Holder-Slide Rail Assemblies
Floor holder-slide rail assemblies include floor holder, holder fixing component, and
slide rail. Floor holders are used to support the floor around cabinet, and can be
divided into front and back floor holders, and side floor holder. Holder fixing
components are installed under slide rails, and they are used to connect slide rails
and front and back floor holders.
Slide rails are used to connect cabinet and supports, and to move the equipment and
adjust the equipment positions. They can join two supports and a cabinet together to
keep the cabinet in a horizontal line and the connection stable. Due to their elasticity,
the slide rails can absorb the vibrations.

installation, floor recovering, door lintel installation and door installation are
implemented. For detailed information, see Chapter 7 "Installing Cabinet Fittings" of
this manual.
3.3.4 Planning Support Positions
I. Determining Cabinet Positions
Before installing cabinets, plan available space of the equipment room. Keep
sufficient space around cabinets for maintenance and operation purposes, as shown
in
Figure 3-5 and Figure 3-6.
II. Marking Installation Hole Positions
To mark the positions of installation holes, do as follows:
3-5
1) Specify installation positions for the supports with reference to the benchmark
dimensions and the support dimensions specified in the construction plan.
2) Mark a few points for line drawing with a long tape and draw two straight lines
parallel to the benchmark with a distance of 690 mm between them.
3) According to the design requirements, specify the installation holes for the first
support on the two lines.
4) With these holes as reference, mark the installation holes for other supports one
by one.
5) To avoid faults, measure all location lines again after marking the holes to ensure
correct dimensions.
The holes for installing supports for a single cabinet are shown in Figure 3-5.
The holes for installing supports for multiple cabinets in a row are shown in Figure 3-6.

III. Drilling Holes
To fix supports onto the ground with the M12 expansion bolts, it is required to drill
holes for the expansion bolts using a percussion drill with bit φ16.
To drill a hole, do as follows:

1) Keep the drilling bit vertical to the ground and hold tight the drillstock to make
holes 52 mm to 60 mm deep. The depth of the holes must be within 52 mm to 60
mm. Otherwise the expansion bolts cannot be fastened. Make sure that the
depths of all holes are the same.
2) Clean the dust inside the holes with a vacuum cleaner.
3) Measure the depth to make sure that the depths of all holes are the same.
3-8
If the ground is too hard or smooth to settle the drill bit, punch a sample pit first for
easy drilling.
Drawing lines and drilling holes are the fundamental work for hardware installation.
Good quality is the prerequisite to guarantee the quality of the overall installation. If
the accuracy is not high enough, the future work will be greatly affected.
Note:
The depth of drilled hole must be 52 mm to 60 mm. A depth less than 52 mm or more
than 60 mm will cause the expansion bolt unable for normal installation and fastening.
3.3.5 Installing Supports and Slide Rails
I. Installing Expansion Bolts
Before fixing expansion bolts, clean up the dust inside and around the holes with a
vacuum cleaner. Measure the distance between the holes and place the supports to
check whether the supports and holes match exactly. For the holes with big deviation,
plan and drill new holes before installing expansion bolts in them.
To install an expansion bolt, do as follows:

1) Take expansion tube and nut off the expansion bolt, and put them vertically into a
hole after the guiding rib on the expansion nut has been inserted in to the guiding
slot.
2) Strike directly on the expansion tube with a rubber hammer until it is completely
driven into the ground.

tube before the tube is driven into the ground. Otherwise, the expansion bolt could not
be installed and fastened normally.
II. Adjusting Support Height
To ensure that the upper surface of slide rails and the upper surface of the
ESD-preventive floor are on the same level after the supports and slide rails are
assembled, it is required to adjust all the supports to the preset height before
installation.
To adjust the support height, do as follows:

1) Measure the height of the upper surface of the ESD-preventive floor.
2) Make the value minus the height of the slide rail (50 mm) to get the preset height
of the supports.
3) According to the ESD-preventive floor height mark on the supports, adjust all the
supports to the preset height and tighten the height-locking bolts to 45 Nm with a
torque spanner.
4) Tighten the bolts in the middle and then those at both sides, as shown in Figure

5.5 Installing Protection Grounding Cables for Cabinets
5.5.1 Introduction to Protection Grounding System
The UMG8900 equipment adopts joint grounding mode. The input terminals of GND
and protection ground (PGND) of cabinets have been connected before delivery to
ensure they are equipotential. In actual installation, the grounding points of MGW
frames and internal components of cabinets are interconnected through protection
grounding cables and all cabinets are interconnected too through protection grounding
cables as an equipotential system.
5.5.2 Installing Protection Grounding Cables for Cabinet Body
Note:
The grounding of a cabinet body is done after front and back doors and side panels are
installed.
In actual installation, protection grounding cables can be installed in either upward

cabling mode or downward cabling mode.
If upward cable mode is adopted, do as follows to install protection grounding cables for
the cabinet body:
1) Lead protection grounding cables from the copper grounding bar on DC power
distribution cabinet to the grounding bolts on the top of a cabinet.
2) Use UL1015 8AWG green-yellow cables (core area about 8.6 mm2) to connect the
grounding bar that connects to the grounding bolts on top of the cabinet and
grounding bars on the side columns of the cabinet, as shown in Figure 5-5.

are installed, it is required connect four grounding cables from the four grounding points
on the cabinet doors to the grounding points on the cabinet base. The protection
grounding cables from the grounding points on the top of cabinet to the grounding bars
are configured in pair, the same as those from the grounding points on the cabinet base
to the grounding bars. In addition, the core area of the protection grounding cable from
the protection grounding bar of DC power distribution cabinet is required to be not less
than 25 mm2, and the grounding impedance in the equipment room is required to be
less than 1 ohm.
5.5.3 Installing Protection Grounding Cables for MGW Frames

5.6 Installing Power Cables and Protection Grounding

Cables between DC Power Distribution Cabinet to N68-22
Cabinet
5.6.1 Introduction to Installing Power Cables and Protection Grounding

Cables for Cabinets
If DC power distribution cabinet is provided together with the UMG8900 equipment, you
need to install the DC power distribution cabinet first and use the PGND cables to
connect DC power distribution cabinet and protection grounding bar of the equipment
room before installing power cables and protection grounding cables between DC
power distribution cabinet and N68-22 cabinet.
5-11
Caution:
If there is no DC power distribution cabinet in the equipment room, connect the power
cables from the -48V1 and -48V2 connecting terminals of the N68-22 cabinet directly to
the -48 V DC negative line bank of the DC switchboard or DC power, and connect the
power cables from the GND connecting terminals of the N68-22 cabinet directly to the
-48 V DC positive link bank of the DC switchboard of DC power. The PGND connecting
terminals must be connected directly to the nearest protection grounding bar in the
equipment room. The protection grounding cable uses green and yellow plastic
insulation copper core wires whose core area is the same as that of power cable.
5.6.2 Core Areas of Power Cables and Protection Grounding Cables
The power cable from the DC power distribution cabinet to a N68-22 cabinet includes
–48 VDC cables (blue) and RTN cables (black), which, together with protection
grounding cable (green-yellow), are delivered with the equipment.
Their core areas are shown in Table 5-2.
Table 5-2 Core areas of cables from DC power distribution cabinet to UMG8900
cabinet
Name Specification
–48 VDC cable (blue) 25 mm2 copper core — dual
RTN cable (black) 25 mm2 copper core — dual

Protection grounding cable (green-yellow) 25 mm2 copper core
Note:
The cross area of power bus cable from DC switchboard to DC power distribution
cabinet is designed according to the parameters such as loop length of the power bus
cable, terminal load payload capacity for the engineering and design voltage drop.
If the core area of all available power cables cannot meet the design requirements, it
would be considered to connect two or more power cables in parallel. For example, if
there is only 120 mm2 power cable, but a 240 mm2 power cable is required, you can
use two 120 mm2 power cables in parallel connection as one power bus cable.
5-12
5.6.3 Installing Power Cables and Protection Grounding Cables
If DC power distribution cabinet is provided together with the UMG8900 equipment, it is

required to install and connect it to the nearby protection grounding bar offered by the
customer through protection grounding bus cable before installing power cables and
protection grounding cables from DC power distribution cabinet to the UMG8900
cabinets.
Note:
z Before connecting power cables and protection grounding cable, measure the
distance between protection grounding bar and power distribution cabinet, and that
between DC power distribution cabinet and connecting terminals of the power
distribution frame in the cabinet. Use cables that are long enough to avoid shortage
during actual wiring. If a cable is not long enough, stop your work and replace it with
a new one. Do not splice cables by connectors or soldering.
z It is required to stick labels on both ends of power cables, and a label must be stuck
at the place where it is 30 mm apart from the root of the cable.
The connection of power cables and protection grounding cables from the DC power
distribution cabinet to the N68-22 cabinets is shown in Figure 5-9.

1) Insert the cord end terminals (as shown in Figure 5-10) of the two –48 VDC cables
into the connecting terminals marked “–48V1” and “–48V2” on the power
distribution frame in the cabinet. Connect the other ends of the two cables to the
output connectors marked “–48V1” and “–48V2” in the DC power distribution
cabinet, for example, the “–48V1” and “–48V2” power cables in the third cabinet
must be connected to the third output connector of “–48V1” and third output
connector of “–48V2” in the DC power distribution cabinet.
Figure 5-10 Power cable cold end terminal
2) Connect the black RTN cables to the connecting terminals marked “RTN” on the
power distribution frame of the cabinet, and then connect the other ends of the
black grounding cables to GND grounding bar in the DC power distribution
cabinet.
Note:
The connecting terminals of DC power distribution cabinet are assigned in terms of the
principles “first up, last down” and “first left, last right”. That is, for –48V1 and –48V2
connecting terminals, use the upper group first, then the lower group; for the upper
group, use the connecting terminals from left to right (from the front view) one by one.
The connecting terminals of positive line bank and lightning protection ground are used
from left to right in sequence.
In other cases when power cables are led from DC power distribution cabinet (for
example, to connect protection grounding cables for a terminal), reverse principle is
applied, that is, connecting terminals are used from down to top and from right to left, to
facilitate future expansion and connection.
If only DC switchboard is configured in the equipment room, do as follows:
5-14
3) Connect the power cables led from –48V1 and –48V2 connecting terminals of the
UMG8900 cabinet to –48 VDC negative line bank of DC switchboard (or DC power
supply);
4) Connect the power cable led from GND connecting terminal of the UMG8900
cabinet to –48 VDC positive line bank of DC switchboard (or DC power supply);
5) Connect the protection grounding cable led from the PGND connecting terminal of
the UMG8900 cabinet to the protection grounding bar nearby provided by the
customer. The cable material must be the green and yellow plastic insulation
copper core wire whose core area is the same as that of power cable.

and the latter is used to monitor fan box in each MGW frame.
In each cabinet, one MGW frame is required to provide monitoring cable interface to
the power distribution frame of the cabinet. In the main control cabinet, main control
frame provides the monitoring cable interface. In service cabinet, the middle service
frame provides the monitoring cable interface. For such MGW frame, to monitor
6-10
power distribution frame and auxiliary fan box at the same time, a monitoring cable
with two branches is required, as shown in Figure 6-10.

6.5.3 Installing Cascading Cables
I. Type and Appearance of Cascading Cables
Cascading cables include FE cascading cable, GE cascading cable and TDM

cascading cable. FE cascading cable is crossover network cable, and GE and TDM
cascading cables are optical fibers.
The appearance of a crossover network cable is shown in Figure 6-13.
Figure 6-13 Appearance of crossover network cable
The connection relationships of the crossover network cable are shown in Table 6-1.

Cascading optical fiber is LC fiber, as shown in Figure 6-14.
6-13
Figure 6-14 LC optical fiber
Note:
When two or more frames are configured, cascading cables are required. When two
frames are configured, direct connection mode is adopted. If three or more frames are
configured, a central switching frame is required to provide cascading boards to
connect with the frames.
To prevent optical fibers from being damaged, cables and optical fibers must be laid
separately. Colligate optical fibers with nylon straps. The curvature radius of the
bending part of optical fibers must not be less than 35 mm and the surplus fibers must
be rolled on fiber coiler.
III. Installing Cascading Cables
When two frames are cascaded, connect the main control frame and service frames
directly with cascading cables. Between the NETs of the main control frame and of a
service frame, use one pair of FE cascading cables and two pairs of GE cascading
cables. Between TDM central switching network units (TNUs) of the main control
frame and TDM convergence & link units (TCLUs) of a service frame, use three pairs
of TDM cascading cables. The NETs, TCLUs and TNUs are configured in
active/standby mode and the connection relationships are the same.
When three or more frames are cascaded, one of them functions as the central
switching frame that has back link units (BLUs) used to implement cascading. The
6-14
connection method between the main control frame and the central switching frame is
the same as that when two frames are cascaded, that is:
z Use one pair of FE cascading cables and two pairs of GE cascading cables
between the NETs of the main control frame and of a service frame
z Use three pairs of TDM cascading cables between the TCLUs of the main control
frame and the TNUs of the central switching frame.
The BLUs in the central switching frame provide cascading cable interfaces for
cascading cables to connect to service frames. Every pair of BLUs can be cascaded
with one service frame. Each BLU can be connected to the NETs of a service frame
with one pair of FE cascading cables and two pairs of GE cascading cables, and to
the TCLUs of a service frame with three pairs of TDM cascading cables. The
extended control frame and the central switching frame are connected through FE
cascading cable.
When the frames are fully configured, the connection relationships of cascading
cables are shown in Figure 6-15..
When two frames are cascaded, the connection relationships are shown in Figure
6-16.
When three frames are cascaded, the connection relationships are shown in Figure
6-17.

6-19
III. Installing Internal E1/T1 Cables
The three main ways to connect the SSM with the UAM are shown as follows:
z The SSM and the USM connect with each other directly by cables.
If there is no DDF rack in the machine room, the E1/T1 cable of the SSM can be
connected with the corresponding E1/T1cable of the UAM by using coaxial cable
conversion connectors.
z The SSM and the UAM connect with each other by the DDF rack.
If there is a DDF rack in the machine room, the E1/T1 cables of the SSM and the UAM
can be connected to the DDF rack by the jumper provided by the DDF rack.
z The SSM and the UAM connect with each other through the SDH transmission
equipment.
If the UAM is located at the remote end, the SSM and the UAM are connected to their
respective transmission equipment by the E1/T1 cable. The transmission equipment
at both ends are connected through the transmission network.
For details about the connection modes between the SSM and the UAM, refer to
Appendix D “Connecting the UAM”.
For the detailed installation description of the UAM, refer to the series of UAM user
manuals listed below:

6.6 Installing External Signal Cables
6.6.1 Installing Trunk Cables
I. Type and Appearance of Trunk Cables
There are two types of trunk cables used in the UMG8900, 75/120 ohm E1 trunk cable
and 100 ohm T1 trunk cable. Both types adopt HD100PIN connectors with pin
spacing of 1.27 mm, and each cable includes 16 channels of E1 or T1 signals.
The 75 ohm E1 trunk cable is 32-core coaxial cable with the impedance of 75 ohm,
and the 120 ohm E1/T1 trunk cable uses 32 pairs of twisted pairs with the
characteristic impedance of 120 ohm.
The appearance of a trunk cable is shown in Figure 6-20.
The length of the trunk cables and the type of the DDF are confirmed during the site
survey. Because the external diameter of a single wire jacket is 1.95 mm and the
external diameter of the insulation jacket is 1.05 mm, it is required to use
corresponding connectors when the DDF is installed on site.
The length of the cables to be laid is determined during the site survey, and proper
redundancy is required. If a cable is not long enough, you must replace it with other
proper cable. In some special cases, you can use dedicated coaxial cable connector
to splice cables, but soldering is prohibited.
Note:
It is not recommended to bundle trunk cables in cabling trough behind frame to
facilitate board insertion.
III. Installing Trunk Cables
To install a trunk cable, do as follows:

1) Connect one end to the FE32 or FT32.
2) Connect the other end to the DDF.
Figure 6-20 shows the connection relationships of trunk cables, taking E1 cable
(connected to FE32 board) as example.

6.6.2 Installing External Clock Cables
I. Type and Appearance of Externla Clock Cables
External clock cables include 2 Mbit/s external clock cable and GPS clock cable. The
2Mbit/s clock cable is BITS clock cable, which has SMB female connectors. It is used
to access the synchronous clock signals provided by external BITS. The GPS clock
cable has SMA male connectors and it is used to connect FCLK board and GPS clock
device. For connection of GPS clock cables, refer to Appendix C “Installing Antenna
System”.
The appearance of a clock cable is shown in Figure 6-21.
6-22
The clock signals between external clock device and the UMG8900 have to be
transferred by DDF. For this, one end of external clock cable has no connector, and it
will be crimped with connector according to the type of the DDF on site.
III. Installing External Clock Cables
To install an external clock cable, do as follows:

1) Connect one end to FCLK.
2) Connect the other end to DDF.
The connection relationships of external clock cables are shown in Figure 6-21.

6.6.3 Installing External Network Cables
I. Type and Appearance of External Network Cables
External network cables are used to connect the UMG8900 and local maintenance
terminal (LMT), the SOFTX3000 device or another Media Gateway (MGW) device.
6-23
External network cables include straight through network cable and crossover
network cable. Crossover network cable is used when a PC or MGC is connected to
the UMG8900 directly. Straight through network cable is used when they are
connected through HUB or Ethernet switch.
Straight through network cable looks the same as crossover network cable. They
have shielded plastic crystal connectors at both ends and their cable materials are
category-5 shielded twisted pair. They are only different in line assignment.
The appearance of the network cable is shown in Figure 6-13.
Network cable is laid through DDF and the length is determined according to the site
survey. The installation and layout requirements are similar to those for trunk cable
and clock cable.
III. Installing External Network Cables
For specific installation method, refer to construction documentation.
6.6.4 Installing External Optical Fibers
I. Type and Appearance of External Optical Fibers
You need to select a fiber connector according to the optical interface type of the
opposite device that is connected to the network interface module of the UMG8900.
Single-mode optical interface can only use single-mode fiber and multi-mode optical
interface can only use multi-mode fiber.
The optical modules in fixed network gigabit 1-port optical fiber interface board
(FG1O), fixed network 1-port 622M POS fiber interface board (FP1H), FS2L, FA4L
and FP4L boards all adopt LC connectors and LC optical fibers are used
correspondingly.
The appearance of the external optical fiber is shown in Figure 6-14.
Before connecting optical fibers, it is required to ensure the connector type and fiber
type are applicable to the type of the adopted optical interface.
To lay the external fibers, it is required to use corrugated plastic tubes or other
protection tubes to protect the optical fibers.
6-24
III. Installing External Optical Fibers
To install an external optical fiber, do as follows:

1) Lead the optical fiber out of the optical module interface on the front panel of
FG1O, FP1H, FS2L, FA4L or FP4L.
2) Connect it to the external optical distribution frame (ODF) or external optical
interface/transmission device.
For specific connection relationships, refer to the construction documentation.

The alarm box can be connected to the LMT alarm console or directly to the
UMG8900.
z Connecting to the LMT alarm console
When the alarm box is connected to the LMT alarm console, the UMG8900 reports
alarm information to the LMT, which then forwards the information to the alarm box.
The LMT alarm console and the alarm box communicate with each other through the
RS232 serial ports.
z Connecting to the UMG8900
When the alarm box is directly connected to the UMG8900, the UMG8900 is
connected to the serial port of the alarm box through the interface ALARM provided
on the back filter box of the main control frame. The interface complies with the
RS422 standard. Through the interface ALARM, alarm information can be reported to
the alarm box directly.
II. Grounding for the Alarm Box
If single-phase AC power supply is used for the alarm box, it is required to conduct
lightning protection measures for the AC power sockets, that is, you must use
yellow-green protection grounding cable whose cross section is not less than 4 mm2
8-3
to connect the metal shell of the alarm box to the protection grounding bar in the
equipment room.
For detailed methods for installing the alarm box and connecting related cables, refer
to Universal Alarm Box User Manual delivered with the alarm box.
8.5 Laying Cables for Peripherals
The alarm box, Hub, Modem and various clients (workstations) are generally installed
in the maintenance room. The modes and requirements for cabling and connecting
serial port cable for the alarm box and network cable for HUB are similar to those for
cabling and connecting external clock cables or trunk cables. It is required to lead the
signal cables to the maintenance room through cabling trough or cabling rack. The
power cables of the LMTs, signal cables of monitors, and network cables of Hub must
be laid orderly and bundled separately. To ensure the safety of personnel and devices,
the power system must be reliably grounded.

movable floor around the cabinets.
III. Environment of the Equipment Room
There must be no useless objects in the equipment room and all the necessities must
be neatly arranged in the room. The workbench and movable floor must be clean and
tidy.
9.3 Checking Power Supplies for Cabinets and Frames
The check on power supply for the cabinets and frames is to see whether there is
short circuit in all output power lines from the DC power distribution frame, whether
the input DC voltage to the UMG8900 cabinets is normal, whether the visual and
audio alarm function of the frames in all cabinets is normal, and whether the input DC
voltage to all internal components of the cabinets is normal. The check steps are
described as follows.
1) Shut down the power supply of DC power distribution cabinet, and set all AC
power sockets and switches to OFF. Set the multimeter to ohm range and check
whether there is short circuit between power supplies (–48V1 and –48V2) of the
DC power distribution frame and between grounds (BGND and PGND), and
whether the power supply is disconnected from the ground. The hot wire, ground
wire and neutral wire of every socket must not be shorted.
2) Set all the switches of the power distribution frame in the top of the cabinet to
OFF, and then power on the DC power distribution cabinet. In the case of no load,
use the multimeter to check whether the output of power supply is within the
allowed voltage range (–57 V to –40 V). At this time, red “ALM” indicator on the
power distribution frame should flash and the buzzer will give off audible alarm
upon setting the ALARM switch to “ON”.
3) Set all the switches of the power distribution frame in the top of the cabinet to
“ON” after making sure that there is no board inserted into the corresponding slot
on the backplane. At this time, there should be no power alarm or audible alarm
and the red WARN indicator should not light up. The fan frame should operate
normally and there is no abnormal noise.
9-3
4) Check whether other devices in the cabinets are with power supply input of –48
V and their voltage is within the proper range (–57 V to –40 V). If everything is
normal, the power supply is in good condition.
If any of the above items does not meet the requirement, find out the reason and
perform troubleshooting before the power-on check.
The alarm indicators on the power distribution frame can indicate analog value alarm
information and Boolean value alarm information. To analyze analog value alarm
information, follow the method below.
1) Check whether there is alarm for analog values through the background,
including voltage of the two power supplies, humidity sensor, and temperature
sensor. Check whether the reported values are normal.
Item Default normal value
Voltage –42V to –58V
Humidity 5% to 90%
Temperature 5°C to 70°C
2) If the above values are normal, check whether the values are beyond the upper
limit or lower limit configured in the background.
To analyze Boolean value alarm information, follow the method below.
1) Check whether there is Boolean value related alarm, including:
z Lightning protection fault of dual channel
z Power distribution output switch fault of four to eight channels
z Inverter fault of three channels
z Preserved Boolean value fault of three channels
2) Check whether the corresponding Boolean value detection is configured. If yes,
check whether there is alarm for Boolean value and check whether the alarm is
normal.
If Boolean value detection is not configured, execute alarm disabling/enabling
command through the background to mask those Boolean values not configured
9.4 Performing Board Power-On Test
The working status of a board powered on can be known according to indicators on

the board front panel. For the meanings of board indicators, refer to HUAWEI
UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Hardware Description Manual.
The steps to conduct the trial power-on check are as follows.

1) Check whether the input and output cables of –48 VDC power supply are
correctly connected and whether the connection cables are firm.
9-4
2) Set all the switches on DC power distribution frame for the boards to “OFF”, and
then insert the boards into the slots on the backplanes and fasten the front
planes of the boards.
3) Set the power switches controlling the frames to “ON”. At this time, all board
indicators should be normal. If the indicators of all boards do not light up after the
power switches are turned on, it indicates no –48 VDC input or error of the input
terminal connection. If the power switch jumps upon being closed, it means there
would be short-circuit of payload or connection error on the output terminal (short
circuit).

A.2.3 Installation Modes
The cabling rack can be installed in four different modes:

z Install a suspender on the ceiling to hang the cabling rack (hereinafter referred to
as the “suspension mounting mode”).
z Install a bracket on the ground to support the cabling rack (hereinafter, referred
to as the “ground supporting mode”).
z When the cabling rack is placed against the wall, install a triangular support on
the wall to support the cabling rack.
z When the cabling rack passes over the cabinet, install a shockproof support or a
ladder on the cabinet to support the cabling rack.
A.2.4 Cabling Rack Specifications
Cabling rack is made of cabling ladder, and cabling trough which is optional
component.
The cabling ladder and the cabling trough have the following specifications:
z 200mm-wide cabling ladder matches the 200mm-wide cabling trough;
z 400mm-wide cabling ladder matches the 400mm-wide cabling trough;
z 600mm-wide cabling ladder matches the 200mm +400mm-wide cabling trough.
It is recommended to use 400mm-wide cabling ladder over the cabinet, and not to use
cabling trough, to facilitate cabling and to improve the heat dissipation of the system.

A.3.2 Assembling Cabling Ladder
The cabling ladder uses channel-section steel and cross stays for form its framework.
The channel-section steel functions as the vertical beams of the cabling ladder and
the cross stays function as the horizontal beams. To assemble a cabling ladder, use
fastener to connect the cross stays with the channel-section steel. The spacing
A-8
between two cross stays is 250 mm. Because the spacing between holes in the
channel-section steel is 50 mm, install one cross stay every five trough holes. When
the assembled cabling ladder is used for horizontal installation, the bolt head of the
cabling ladder should face downward to ensure that there is no protrusion on the
ladder surface and to facilitate the installation of cabling trough.
The basic structure of a cabling ladder is shown in Figure A-21.
(1) Fastener (2) Cross stay (3) Channel-section steel

Figure A-21 Basic structure of a cabling ladder
If a longer cabling ladder is required, you can join several cabling ladders in an “end to
end” fashion. The channel-section connecting piece is used to connect ladders, as
shown in Figure A-22. If the length of a cabling ladder is not an integral multiple of 2.5
m, cut off the remaining part. Use brush the paint the cross section to ensure
protection against corrosion and to provide aesthetic look for the ladder.

A.3.3 Connecting and Installing Cabling Troughs
Because cabling trough is cone-shaped, you can insert the smaller end of a cabling
trough to the bigger end of another. The depth of inserted part is 250 mm. When
200mm-wide or 400mm-wide cabling trough is used, directly place the cabling trough
on cabling ladder, and secure the cabling trough on the cabling ladder with fixing clips.
For each segment of the cabling trough, four such clips are used and they should be
symmetrical at both sides.
The connection of cabling troughs is shown in Figure A-23.

Figure A-23 Connection of cabling troughs (200 mm or 400 mm wide)
If a cabling trough is installed on 600mm-wide cabling ladder, it can be formed by

means of joining a 200mm-wide trough and a 400mm-wide trough together with
connecting clips. For each segment of cabling trough, three connecting clips are
required. To install a cabling trough, secure it on cabling ladder with fixing clips. If a
longer cabling trough is required, the connecting method is same as that mentioned
earlier. Here, follow the principle “extended first and fixed next”.
The structure of 600 mm-wide trough is shown in Figure A-24.

A.3.4 Installing Turning Cabling Rack
I. Connecting Cabling Racks on a Horizontal Surface
When a cabling rack has to turn perpendicularly on a horizontal surface, there are two
different installation ways with regard to whether the cabling trough is adopted or not.
z Cabling trough is not adopted
If the crossed cabling racks consist of only cabling ladders, use angle connecting
pieces and fasteners to joint the two cabling ladders. Make sure that the two cabling
ladders are on the same horizontal surface as shown in Figure A-25.
(1) Angle connecting piece

Figure A-25 Cabling ladders turning on a horizontal surface
z Cabling trough is adopted

When either or both of the crossed cabling racks have cabling troughs, there must be
a height difference between the two cabling racks, that is, the height of the cabling
ladder of one cabling rack must be the same as the height of the cabling trough of
another cabling rack, to ensure that the cables shall not encounter any trouble while
turning on the cabling rack. The installation is shown in Figure A-26. In the installation,
angle connecting pieces and fasteners are also used, whereas the installation method
of the angle connecting pieces is different from that in as shown in Figure A-25.
(1) Angle connecting piece

Figure A-26 Cabling rack with cabling trough turning on a horizontal surface

II. Connecting Cabling Racks not in Horizontal Surface
When you want to connect cabling ladders not in a horizontal surface, use a segment
of cabling ladder to make a climbing ladder. Use angle connecting pieces and
fasteners to connect the cabling ladder and climbing ladder.
Figure A-27 shows the vertical connection of cabling ladders, in which the left figure
shows front view of the connection, and the right figure shows the side view of the
connection. Pay attention to the installation of the angle connecting pieces shown in
the figure.

III. Connecting Cabling Ladder onto Wall
When the cabling rack has to be connected to the wall, use the installation method as
shown in Figure A-29. The connecting components include angle connecting piece,
A-12
insulating plate, insulating washer, fastener and expansion bolt. Insulating plate and
insulating washer are used to ensure insulation between the cabling rack and the wall.
Meanwhile, big flat washer (φ8 of GB96-85) is used to replace the washer for the
expansion bolt to increase the contact area between the washer and the insulating
washer

A.3.5 Installing Cabling Rack in Suspension Mounting Mode or Ground

Supporting Mode
You can use suspension mounting mode or ground supporting mode when cabling
rack is not placed against the wall. The suspension mounting mode is similar to the
ground supporting mode, except that in the former installation mode, the cabling rack
is connected to the ceiling, while in the latter the cabling rack is connected to the
ground. The connecting components include channel-section steels, angle
connecting pieces, fasteners and expansion bolts. To install a cabling rack in
suspension mounting mode or ground supporting mode, use two pieces of
channel-section steels to connect the cabling ladder to the ceiling or the ground. The
installation method is the same as that of connecting cabling rack to the wall.
A-13
Each piece of channel-section steel is 2.5 m long. You can cut proper length
according to the heights of the cabling rack and of the equipment room. If the required
length is longer than 2.5 m, connect two pieces of channel-section steel by
channel-section connecting piece with the same method as connecting cabling
ladders. Meanwhile, paint the cut cross sections.
Because the spacing between the holes in the channel-section steel is 50 mm, the
spacing between the suspenders or between the supporting levers must be an
integral multiple of 50 mm. Otherwise, it is impossible to proceed with the installation.
It is recommended that each segment of the cabling ladder is hung or supported by
two sets of suspenders or supporting levers, and the spacing between two
suspenders or between two supporting levers is 1250 mm .
When the suspension mounting mode or ground supporting mode is adopted, the
suspenders or the supporting levers have to be installed at the outer side of the
cabling ladder to facilitate the placement of cabling trough. Meanwhile, insulating
plate and insulating washer must be used to ensure the insulation between the
suspension components and the ceiling, or between the ground supporting
components and the ground, as shown in Figure A-30.

A.3.6 Installing Triangular Support
A-14
Note:
The spacing between two triangular supports must be an integral multiple of 50 mm;
otherwise, cabling ladders cannot be connected and fixed to triangular supports. A
spacing of 1250 mm is recommended between two triangular supports, that is, each
segment of cable ladder is supported by two triangular supports.
When cabling rack is placed against the wall, a triangular support is used to support
the cabling rack. The triangular support adopts a welded structure, and it is fixed onto
the wall by expansion bolts. It provides holes in its horizontal beam for installing
cabling ladder. The triangular support has three specifications corresponding to the
200mm-wide, 400mm-wide, and 600mm-wide cabling ladders respectively. A larger
triangular support can be used to support smaller cabling ladder, but it is not
recommended here. The sizes of their installation holes in the wall are the same.
To install a triangular support, use expansion bolts to fix the support onto the wall. Use
big flat washers (φ8 of GB96-85) to replace the flat washers of the expansion bolts.
Meanwhile, install two insulating plates between the vertical beam of the triangular
support and the wall, and install an insulating washer between the nut and the vertical
beam.
To install cabling ladder onto the triangular support, place it directly on the horizontal
beam of the triangular support. Align the holes on the lower side of the
channel-section steel with the holes in the horizontal beam of the triangular support,
and then fix them with fasteners, as shown in Figure A-31.

A.3.7 Installing Cabling Rack over Cabinet
I. Introduction to Installation Ways
Cabling rack can be installed over the cabinet in the following two ways (Generally,
cable distribution trough is not configured on the top of cabinet for the purpose of
improving system heat dissipation).
z If shockproof support is installed on the cabinet, connect the cabling rack with the
quake-proof support.
z If no shockproof support is installed on the cabinet, connect the cabling rack with
the cabinet by climbing ladder.
II. Connecting Cabling Rack with Shockproof Support
Shockproof support on the top of cabinet is welded with channel steel, and it can meet
the strength requirements. It can be fixed to the two bolt holes on top of cabinet. There
are bolt holes on the top plate of the shockproof support, used for fixing and bearing
the cabling rack (cabling ladder).
The connection method is shown in Figure A-32 and Figure A-33.

III. Connecting Cabling Rack with Climbing Ladder
If there is no support installed on the top of cabinet, use climbing ladder based on the
size of the connecting holes provided on the top of cabinet. For specific connecting
method for climbing ladder, refer to the right figure in Figure A-27 or Figure A-28.
A.3.8 Installing Accessories
I. Installing Cable-Through Clip
Cable-through clip can be divided into two types according to whether cabling rack
has cabling trough or not. Figure A-34 illustrates the case when cabling trough is not
configured on cabling rack, in which, upward cable-through clip is used. When cabling
trough is configured on cabling rack, downward cable-through clip is used to ensure
that the upper plane of cable-through clip stays on the same level with the uppermost
plane of cabling rack, and to facilitate cabling. Generally, cable-through clip is installed
on the cabling ladder on the top of cabinet, and the required quantity and location
depend on actual conditions of the installation site.

II. Installing Baffle Rings
Baffle rings are directly snapped at both sides of a cabling trough. Configuring baffle
rings can increase the height of a cabling trough to prevent cables from going beyond
the cabling trough. Each segment of cabling trough uses four such rings and they are
distributed evenly at both sides, as shown in Figure A-23.
III. Installing End Covers
End covers are installed at the ends of a cabling ladder. Wherever possible, end
covers must be installed to provide better appearance and prevents unintended
damage to cables.
IV. Installing Cable Bushings
Cable bushings are installed at the bottom edge of a cabling trough, used to prevent
cables from any possible damage. Any uncovered bottom edge of cabling troughs
must be installed with cable bushing.
The installation of end cover and cable bushing is shown in the left part of Figure A-27.

[Table/Merge Cells].
If two merged cells are still not enough to accommodate the characters, use multiple
lines.
IV. Requirements For the Printer
To print the labels, laser jet printer must be used, although there is no restriction on
the model of the printer. Before printing the label, set up the page and try the printing
on ordinary blank paper (both sides are blank):
1) Cover the blank paper onto the whole page of label paper, and check whether the
page setup conforms to the requirement.
2) Make sure the printer properties, such as "paper size" and “direction”, have been
set correctly.
3) If the warning prompt as shown in Figure B-3 appears before printing, click
<Ignore> to continue the printing.
Figure B-3 Warning prompt before printing
If the printout confoms to the requiremnt, print it to label paper. If the printout does not
conform, adjust the page setup and try the printing again, until the correct printout is
produced. The method of adjusting the page setup is as follows:
1) Select the menu item [File/Page Setup].
2) Select the Margins tab page.
3) Select Left for Gutter Position.
4) Set Header and Footer as 0, and adjust the values of Top, Bottom, Left, and
Right.
After the page setup has been made correct, save it for future use. This page setup is
only necessary in the first time you use the template to print the labels.
B-4
V. Requirements for Feeding the Printer
Different from the ordinary paper, the label paper is composed of two pages. No
matter what model of printer you are using, feed in the labels one after another by
hand. Never use the auto-feed mode in order to avoid jamming the labels. Different
models of printers may have different feeding modes, make sure to feed in the labels
correctly.
VI. Requirements for Printed Labels
Make sure the printed labels satisfy the following requirements:

z All the printouts must be on the label, and nothing must be printed on the bottom
page of the label.
z Contents in the cells must be aligned in the center. In a single-line printout, the
dividing lines and the mark “TO” must not be covered by the printed characters.
z When the cells are merged and the printouts are made in multiple lines, avoid
covering the mark “TO” when printing the texts by using the space bar to move
the printing contents to the next line.
B.2.5 Writing Labels
Use the black oiliness markers delivered together with the device to write the labels.
In special cases, black ball-pens are allowed, although not recommended. When
writing with the ball-pen, take care not to leave the oil on the label, which may
contaminate the label and blur the words..
Note:
The delivered marker has two nibs. Make sure to use the smaller nib to write on the
labels.
For the sake of easy recognition and good looking, the font in handwriting must be
close to the standard typeface as much as possible. Table B-1 shows the standard
typeface.

B.2.6 Affixing Labels
I. Affixing Label to Signal Cable
After printing or writing the label, remove the label from the bottom page and affix it to
the signal cable, or the identification plate of the power cable.
The steps to affix a label to a signal cable are shown in Figure B-5, Figure B-6 and
Figure B-7. The finished labels must be on the right or top of the cables, according to
different cabling methods. The left part of the figures shows the method to affix the
label when the cable is laid vertically, while the right part of the figures shows the
method to affix the label when the cable is laid horizontally.
The label is affixed 2 cm from the connector on the signal cable. In special cases, for
example, to avoid cable bent or affecting other cables, other positions are allowed to
affix the labels.
The steps to affix a label to a signal cable are as follows:

1) Stick the label to the proper position on the cable, fold the narrow part of the label
according to the directions shown in Figure B-5.

II. Affixing Label to Power Cable
Remove the label from the bottom page, then affix it to the identification plate on the
cable tie. The label must be stuck to the rectangular flute, and must be stuck to only
one side of the identification plate. Make sure to affix the labels on the same side of
the identification plates. The cable ties are bundled at 2cm from the connectors, and
other positions are allowed in special circumstances.
Cable ties must be bundled on both ends of a cable. After the bundling, the finished
identification plate must be on top of the cable in horizontal cabling, or on the right
side of the cable in vertical cabling. Make sure the label is facing out, as shown in
Figure B-8.

B.2.7 Information Carried on Labels
I. Information for Power Cables
Labels for power cables are only affixed on one side of the identification plates. On the
labels, there is information (the part after the mark “TO:”) about the location of the
device on the other end of the cable, like the location of control cabinet, distribution
cabinet or power socket.
II. Information for Signal Cables
The two sides of the label affixed on the signal cable carry information about the
location of the ports connected to both ends of the cable, as shown in Figure B-9.
The information is given like this:

z Area 1 contains the location information of local end of the cable.
z Area 2 (with the mark "TO:") contains the location information of the opposite end
of the cable.
z Area 3 has been folded up inside the label.
Area 1 Area 3
Area 2 TO:
Figure B-9 Printed parts on the label for signal cables
Seen from the cabling end of the equipment, the text part of the label is on the right
side of the cable. The side with “TO:” that is facing outside carries the location
information of the opposite end; and the other side carries the location information of
the local end. Therefore, the information in Area 1 at one end is the same as the
information in Area 2 at the other end of the cable, and vice versa. In other words, the
local information at one end is called the opposite information at the other end.
B.2.8 Remarks
The following remarks are made for attentions.

z When printing/writing and affixing labels, pay attention to keep the labels clean.
z Because the label paper is made of moistureproof and waterproof material,
ink-jet printers and ink pens are forbidden for printing and writing labels.
z Labels must be affixed with good order in alignment.
B-9
z Cable ties must be bundled in the same position of power cables, with
identification plates on the same side.
z The positions of “up”, “down”, “right” or “left” are all based on the viewpoint of the
engineering person who is working on the label.
B.3 Engineering Labels for External Cables of Alarm Box
The external cables of alarm box are connected with the first subscriber cabinet of
each row (used for power distribution). Labels pasted on the first cabinet of each row
indicate which equipment is using the access terminal. Labels are not needed on the
equipment side unless there is special requirement. In this case, only Area 2 of the
label is filled in.
Table B-2 shows the information on the labels of alarm box external cables.

room For example, A01 indicates a cabinet at Row A,
Column 01.
Note:
Generally, the above numbering method is enough to identify the position of a specific
cabinet. If cabinets are installed in a back-to-back manner, the facing direction of the
cabinet must be specified, the numbering method like MNO is used. Here, “O” means
the direction of the cabinet, which can be “A” or “B”. On the cable labels described
below, this numbering method is used, unless otherwise stated.
The label on the alarm cable carries simple information, and only part of the text area
needs to be filled in. It is recommended to keep the whole length of the label instead of
cutting out the blank area.
Figure B-10 shows a label on the alarm cable, on which “A01” indicates that the alarm
cable is connected from the first cabinet to the cabinet at Row A, Column 01 in the
equipment room.

I. Introduction to the Labels
The labels are affixed to the DC cables that provide power for the cabinets, and the
protection grounding cables, including the -48V, PGND, and BGND cables. The labels
for DC power cables are affixed to one side of the identification plates on cable ties.
II. Label Information Meanings
Table B-9 shows the information carried on the labels for the DC power cables:
Table B-9 Information on labels affixed to the DC power cables
Content Meaning
MN(BC)--48V1 MN(BC): BC is written right under MN.
MN(BC)--48V2 On the equipment cabinet side, only MN is used to identify the
cabinet.
MN(BC)-BGND
On the power cabinet side, MN identifies the row and column
number of the power distribution equipment like the control
cabinet and distribution cabinet, BC identifies the row and
MN(BC)-PGND column number of the -48V connecter (if there is no row
number or column number, or the connecter can be identified
without them, BC can be omitted). BGND and PGND have no
row and column number for identification.
B-20
The label only carries location information about the opposite equipment, the control
cabinet or the distribution cabinet, while information of the local end is not necessary.
Table B-9 lists the information of two -48V power supplies on the label. The
information for other DC voltages (such as 24V, 60V) should be given in similar
methods.
III. Label Example
Make sure that labels are affixed in correction direction. That is, after the cable ties
are bundled onto the cable, the identification plates with the labels should face up,
and the text on the labels in the same cabinet should be in the same direction, as
shown in Figure B-17.

Note:
In the power distribution cabinet (or the first power cabinet of a row in the transmission
equipment room), every terminal on the -48V terminal block has a numeric
identification, like “08” in “A01/B08--48V2” in the above example.
PGND and BGND are copper bars, on which all the terminals are connected. In this
case, it is only necessary to specify the row and column of the power distribution
cabinet. For example, “A01-BGND” means that the power cable is a BGND cable that
connects to the BGND copper bar of the power distribution cabinet at Row A, Column
01 in the equipment room.
B.8.2 Labels for AC Power Cables
I. Introduction to the Labels
The labels are affixed to the AC cables that provide power for the cabinets, and the
protection grounding cables, including the POWER, PGND, and BGND cables. The
220V AC cables and related PGND and BGND cables are covered with insulating
sheath, so the labels only need to contain the words of “AC" and the cabinet number.
The labels for AC power cables are affixed to one side of the identification plates on
cable ties.
II. Label Information Meanings
Table B-10 shows the information carried on the labels for the AC power cables.

C.3 Installation Preparations
C.3.1 Planning Grounding Points
To achieve lightning protection, the antenna system must be correctly grounded.

Generally, there are two grounding points, namely outdoor grounding point and indoor
grounding point.
The satellite signal receiving antenna is usually installed on the top of a building. The
outdoor grounding point should be set near the entrance from which the feeder cable
is led in, and you must ensure that the grounding point is reliable. For example, if
there is a mobile base station antenna or other antenna installed on the roof of the
building, the feeder cable of the antenna is grounded reliably near the entrance. If you
are not sure whether the grounding point is reliable, or there is no grounding point
outdoors, it is allowed that the cable is not grounded outdoors. Because the grounding
cable of grounding clip is 1m long, the distance between the grounding point and the
feeder cable should be as near as possible, and is no more than 1 m generally. For
the ease of fixation, the grounding body should be a piece of metal in the shape of
board or strip.

The indoor grounding point is the protection grounding bar, which may not be near
with the UMG8900 cabinet, for the feeder cable can go to the protection grounding
bar.
C.3.2 Planning Antenna Installation Positions
I. Antenna Visible Range
To ensure the amount of satellites that the antenna can receive, the antenna must be
installed in a position with enough visible range, that is, the visible range must be over
50% of the whole sky.
II. Radio Frequency (RF) Interference
Because the GPS satellite signal is weak and vulnerable to the interference of other
RF signals, the GPS antenna should be installed in a position where there is no
high-power transmitter antenna. If there is no other choice, the antenna should be
kept as far from the transmitter antenna as possible. In general, it should be kept 20 m
away from the mobile base station antenna. If there is a microwave transmitter
antenna, the GPS antenna should be installed at the back of it, with a distance of
more than 5 m.
III. Lightning Protection
To achieve lightning protection, the antenna cannot be installed at the corner of the
roof. There should be lightning arrester, icon tower or other building higher than the
antenna nearby, and in addition, the visual range and RF interference should be also
taken into account.

C.4.2 Fixing Antenna Support
I. Fixing Support Onto Low Wall
If there is low wall of more than 40 cm around the roof, the antenna support can be
fixed onto the wall. However, the pedestal of the support should be removed first.
Follow the steps below to fix the support onto the wall:
C-4
1) Lift the antenna pole and put it again the wall. Two U clips are needed for fixing
the antenna pole onto the wall. Draw the positions for installing U clips. To
ensure reliability and stability, two U-shape clips should keep a distance of no
less than 40 cm, and their positions on the wall should be symmetrical.
2) Drill holes according to the marks on the wall. The expansion bolt M10 is used.
3) Fix the antenna pole with U-shape clips. To ensure stability, the washer is
needed. After the fixation, pull and spin the pole to check whether it is fixed
tightly.
If there are two sets of antenna systems, they should be kept more than 2m away
from each other. The antenna support fixed on the wall is as shown in Figure C-2.
1. Antenna pole 2. Lightning protection box

3. Low wall 4. Expansion bolt
Figure C-2 Schematic diagram of antenna support fixed onto the low wall
II. Fixing Support onto Cement Pedestal
If the antenna support is required to be fixed in the middle of the roof, a cement
pedestal need be built first, which should be 500 mm long, 500 mm wide and 200 mm
high. The cement pedestal should be strong enough and its surface should be level.
C-5
In addition, the impact of outdoor temperature should be taken into account when
building the pedestal. Especially in cold area, the cement pedestal should be built in
advance, for if the temperature is too low, the construction cannot be carried out on
site. Generally, it is required that the cement pedestal is built in advance before
installing the equipment. If there are two sets of antenna systems, their pedestals
should be kept 2m away from each other.
Caution:
It is prohibited to directly drill holes on the roof to fix the support.
Follow the steps below to fix the support onto the cement pedestal:
1) Put the metal underpan of the antenna support onto the middle position of the
pedestal, and then mark the positions of the installation holes.
2) Drill holes according to the marks with the D-12 mm drill.
3) Fasten the expansion bolts to fix the underpan. To ensure good receiving
capability of the antenna, keep the underpan as horizontal as possible. If not,
add washers.
4) Insert the antenna pole into the underpan and ensure the pole is vertical, with the
deviation less than 5 degree. Fasten the screws on the underpan to fix the
antenna pole.
The antenna support fixed on the cement pedestal is as shown in Figure C-3.

C.4.3 Installing Antenna
The holder on the top of the support is used to fix the antenna. Place the antenna on
the holder and insert the signal interface at the bottom of the antenna into the hole of
the holder, then fix the antenna with four screws on the antenna support, as shown in
Figure C-4 and Figure C-5.

C.4.4 Installing Lightning Arrester
I. Installing Outdoor Lightning Arrester
The outdoor lightning arrester leads the Inducting lightning current inducted on the
feeder core to the cover of lightning arrester, which is connected to the shielding layer
of feeder. Because the shielding layer is grounded through grounding clip before the
feeder enters the building, it is not necessary to ground the outdoor lightning arrester
separately. To install the outdoor lightening arrester in the lightening protection box on
the antenna support, follow the procedure below:
1) Unscrew the screws on the lightning protection box and take off the cover. You
can see the lightning arrester bracket.
2) There are two holes in the bracket, a bigger one and a smaller one. Insert the N
connector at the “SURGE” end of the lightning arrester into the bigger hole, and
insert the small screw of the N connector into the smaller hole. Then fix the N
connector and the small screw with the accessory nuts and washers of the
lightning arrester. See Figure C-6.
1. Lightning arrester 2. Lightning arrester bracket

Figure C-6 Schematic diagram of installing outdoor lightning arrester
II. Installing Indoor Lightning Arrester
The indoor lightning arrester leads the over-voltage that may inducted on the feeder
core to the cover of lightning arrester. The indoor lightning arrester is not installed in
the cabinet or other dedicated equipment, instead, it is usually placed on the cabling
rack or under the ESD-preventive floor. The output end (that is, "PROTECTED" end)
of the lightning arrester is connected to FCLK board by 3.5m feeder conversion cable.
The small screw on the lightning arrester cover is the grounding end, which is
C-9
connected to the PGND of the cabinet or the grounding bar in equipment room by the
grounding cable of the lightning arrester.
C.4.5 Making N Connector of 1/2" Super Flexible Feeder Cable
If the FSJ4-50B 1/2" super flexible feeder cable is used, the N connector will be made
on site. In this case, the surplus feeder cable can be cut off. Refer to the instruction
book delivered with the N connector to make it.
The required tools include hacksaw, knife, small file, brush, 19 mm spanner, 22 mm
spanner, and electric dryer.
To make an N connector, follow the steps below:

1) To ensure quality, the cable for connecting the connector must be straight.
2) Cut the cable with a hacksaw to ensure the evenness of the cable section, as
shown in Figure C-7.
Figure C-7 Cable section
3) Strip the sheath of the cable for 28 mm long with a knife to expose the corrugated
cooper tube. The sheath should be cut neatly, and be careful not to damage the
copper pipe, as shown in Figure C-8.
Figure C-8 28 mm sheath stripped
4) Cut a 7 mm long corrugated cooper tube at the front end with the hacksaw, and
then clear the foam with the knife to expose the core. Clean up the cut of the
corrugated cooper tube with a file and brush. Be careful not to damage the core.
See Figure C-9.
C-10
Figure C-9 Cutting 7 mm-long corrugated cooper tube to expose the core
5) Put the small rubber band around the corrugated cooper tube until it encloses the
cable sheath, as shown in Figure C-10.
Figure C-10 Adding rubber band
6) Use the small file to rasp the section of the core into a slant face with width of
1mm, to facilitate connecting the N connector.
7) Smear a little lubricant on the small rubber band, and install the latter part of the
N connector and then fasten it, as shown in Figure C-11.
Figure C-11 Lower part of N connector
8) Smear a little lubricant on the rubber band to install the front part of the N
connector, and then fasten it by cooperation of two spanners. See Figure C-12.
C-11
Figure C-12 Upper part of N connector
9) Cover the connector with a heat-shrinkable tube and then blow it with an electric
dryer. See Figure C-13.

II. Connecting and Laying Jumper
The 1.5 m jumper is used to connect the antenna and outdoor lightning arrester
through N connector. To connect and lay jumper, follows the steps below:
1) For GPS antenna, N connector is used. Smear the front part of the N connector
with a little silica gel, but keep the latter part clean, and then connect it with 1.5 m
jumper.
2) For GPS/GLONASS antenna, TNC/N conversion connector should be used.
Smear a little silica gel on the TNC/N conversion connector first, add the TNC/N
conversion connector, then smear some silica gel on the TNC/N conversion
connector, and then connect it with 1.5 m jumper.
C-13
3) After connecting the jumper, paste semiconductor adhesive tape on the

connecting point for at least 8 cm long and 3 layers thick. Then use insulating
tape to cover the semiconductor adhesive tape.
4) Connect the other end of the jumper to the "SURGE" end of the outdoor lightning
arrester. The jumper out of the lightning protection box should be bent
downwards, to prevent rain water from entering the box.
5) Use cable ties to bind the jumper onto the antenna support, but the first binding
point should keep a distance of 20 cm from the antenna head, avoiding the
antenna head from bearing weight. Bind the cable tightly and leave the cable ties
towards the same direction. All the cable ties should be cut smoothly. The
antenna support connected with the feeder cable is as shown in Figure C-15.
Figure C-15 Antenna support connected with feeder cable
III. Connecting and Laying Feeder Cable
The feeder is used to connect the “PROTECTED” end of outdoor lightning arrester
and the “SURGE” end of indoor lightning arrester through N connector.
To connect and lay feeder cable, follow the steps below:
C-14
1) Connect the "PROTECTED" end of the outdoor lightning arrester to the feeder
cable. At the connecting points, first use the semiconductor adhesive tape, then
use the insulating tape to seal them.
2) Lay the feeder cable along the roof and wall/outdoor cabling ladder to the
entrance of the building. When cabling by cabling ladder, the feeder cables
should be bound with cable ties; when cabling by wall, the feeder cable clips
should be used.
3) The feeder cable clip is as shown in Figure C-16. First, fix the L-shape bracket
onto the wall with two M8 expansion bolts. Then clip the feeder cables with the U
clip. Note to add rubber pads at the top and the bottom. Fasten the M5 screws.
1. L bracket 2. M5 screw
3. U-shape clip 4. Rubber pad
Figure C-16 Schematic diagram of feeder cable bracket
4) The feeder cables are bound with a feeder cable clip about every two meters. In
case of cabling across the wall, to avoid damaging the feeder cables, use three
clips respectively before crossing the wall, on the wall and after crossing the wall
to prevent feeder cables from contacting the wall.
5) Before the feeder cable enters the building, if there is a reliable grounding point
on the roof (for example, the grounding point used by the base station antenna),
you need ground the shielding layer of the feeder cable with grounding clip as
near as possible. Refer to Section C.4.7 Grounding Feeder with Grounding Clip
for specific information about grounding procedure and attentions.
C-15
6) After the feeder cable is led indoors, it is led along the cabling ladder to the
protection grounding bar in equipment room, keeping a distance of less than 1m
from the protection grounding bar since the grounding cable of grounding clip is
1m long. Connect the shielding layer of the feeder cable to the PGND with the
grounding clip. Refer to Section C.4.7 Grounding Feeder with Grounding Clip for
specific information about grounding procedure and attentions.
7) In case of cabling indoors, the feeder cable is led along the cabling ladder or
through the ESD-preventive floor. If the cabling ladder is adopted, the cables
should be bound with cable ties.
8) Connect the feeder cable near the equipment side to the "SURGE" end of indoor
lightning arrester.
9) Paste the labels as shown in Figure C-17 at both ends of the feeder cable. In the
blank square, you need mark the feeder cable number, and then fold it oppositely.
Make the side with words easy to see.

IV. Connecting and Laying Feeder Conversion Cable
The feeder conversion cable is used to connect the “PROTECTED” end of indoor
lightning arrester and the ANT interface on FCLK board. Refer to Section 6.6.2
“Installing External Clock Cables” in Chapter 6 "Installing Signal Cables" of this
manual for the specific connecting and cabling procedures.
C.4.7 Grounding Feeder with Grounding Clip
The grounding clip is used to ground the shield layer of feeder. The grounding cable of
the grounding clip is 1m long, so ensure that the distance between the grounding
point and the feeder cable is within 1m. If the grounding cable of the grounding clip is
not long enough, extended cable of grounding clip can be used. However, it is not
suggested to do so. By default, the yellow grounding cable with the length of 6m and
the size area of 10 mm2 is delivered as the extended cable of grounding clip.
To ground feeder with grounding clip, follow the steps below:

1) Strip the sheath of the feeder cable for about 10 cm long. Be careful not to
damage the shielding layer.
2) Roll the copper sheet of the grounding clip around the shielding layer for one
circle, and then pull it out of the breach at the root. Clip the copper sheet with the
C-16
copper bar of the grounding clip, and spin the copper bar with straight
screwdriver to tighten the cooper sheet, to make it well contacted with the
shielding layer. However, do not tighten it too much, which may damage the
feeder cable. At this time, the copper bar is wrapped inside the copper sheet. Do
not take it out.
3) Use semiconductor adhesive tape to seal the connecting point for at least 20 cm
long. It should be noted that no gap is allowed between grounding cable and the
feeder cable. Then use insulating tap to cover the semiconductor adhesive tape
completely. No part of the semiconductor adhesive tape should be exposed.
4) Fix the other end of the grounding cable onto the grounding body with bolt M8.
Seal the connecting point with the semiconductor adhesive tape first and then
the insulating tape. If the grounding cable of the grounding clip is not long
enough, extension cable can be used. However, it is better not to use the
extension cable. Seal the connecting point with the semiconductor adhesive tape
first and then the insulating tape.
C.4.8 Requirements for Installing Antenna Feeder System
The requirements for installing antenna feeder system are as follows:

z The connectors of the feeder cables must be tightened, to ensure its
performance.
z The connecting points should be sealed well with silica gel, semiconductor
adhesive tape and insulating tape, especially at the connecting point between
the antenna and the 1.5 m jumper.
z Be careful when laying the feeder cable. Be sure to unroll the cable before laying
it, avoiding damaging the cable due to inter-twist. The bending semi-diameter of
the cable should be more than 15 cm.
z If the connectors at both ends of the feeder cable have been made before the
delivery, it is recommended not to cut the feeder cable on site, for the quality of
the connectors cannot be ensured if they are re-made on site.
z After the cables are connected to indoor lightning arrester, use the
semiconductor adhesive tape and the insulating tape respectively to wrap the
indoor lightning arrester and its connectors wholly. No metal should be exposed.
z After the equipment is powered on, you can check the satellites that can be
tracked. If more than four satellites can be tracked, it indicates that the antenna
system functions normally.

A main frame is the frame that has the PV8 or PV4 main control board. It connects
with the SSM by the E1 cable. The main frame can be classified into front access
frame and rear access frame based on the different maintenance modes.
D.1.1 Connecting the SSM with the Rear Access PV8 Main Frame
The SSM can connect with the UAM through the TDM interface board such as the
E32, S1L and S2L, as shown in Figure D-1.

The connection between the SSM and the UAM is shown in Figure D-1.
This figure illustrates the connection mode between the SSM and the rear access
UAM through the example of the SSM connecting with the PV8 main frame by the E32
board. The PV8 board connects with the E32 board through eight E1 cables. The
dashed line in the diagram above represents a logical line. A logical line means the
two ends connect with each other through the transmission equipment or the DDF
instead of connecting directly.
The two E1 cables of the PV8 main frame must be configured to different E32 boards
in order to avoid the loss of communication between the UAM and the SSM due to the
E32 board default.
D.1.2 Connecting the SSM with the Front Access UAFM Frame
The cables of the front access UAM are connected to the corresponding interfaces of
the cabling area. The interfaces are marked with distinctive silk printing.

Figure D-2 SSM connecting with the UAFM
As shown in Figure D-2, the UAFM frame connects with the E32 board of the SSM
through the two interfaces PV4 E1 and PV8 E1.
If the PV4 main control board is adopted, the UAFM frame provides 8 E1 interfaces
through the PV4 E1. In such networking, the PV8 E1 interface is not used.
If the PV8 main control board is adopted, the UAFM frame provides the first 4 E1
interfaces for the two PV8 boards through the PV4 E1, the number of which are from
0 to 3 and 8 to 11. The PV8 E1 provides the last 4 E1 interfaces for the two PV8
boards, the number of which are from 4 to 7 and 12 to 15.
The data configuration between the SSM and the UAM must be the same as that in
the physical connection. It is strongly recommended to follow the networking
configuration requirements for the actual connection.

D.2 Connecting the Main Frame and Sub Frame

A main frame is the frame that uses the PV8 or PV4 main control board. It can also be
called a PV8 frame. A sub frame is the frame that uses the RSP main control board
and can also be called an RSP sub frame.
The connection between a main frame and a sub frame is shown in Figure D-3.

Each HW cable in the diagram contains four HW connections. The PV8 frame
altogether provides 32 HW connections. The PV8 frame cascades with the RSP
frame through the HW cables. The number of the HW cables determines the
convergence ratio of the RSP frame.
The correctness of the HW cable connection decides whether the sub frame can work
properly. It is strongly recommended to follow the networking configuration
requirements for actual connection.
The HW cable of the front access frame is connected to the corresponding interfaces
of the cabling area. There is distinctive silk printing on the interfaces. For details, refer
to U-SYS UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway UAM Hardware Description.

D.5 Connecting the RSA Frame with the RSA Sub Frame
The RSA frame is a remote access frame and can support four pairs of RSA boards at
most. Each pair of RSA boards can provide two HW interfaces to connect with RSA
sub frames. Currently there are two types of RSA main frames, which are RSA_22
and RSA_26. The difference between the two types is in the number of their slots.
The RSA sub frame communicates with the RSA main frame through the DRV board.
There are now two kinds of RSA sub frames, which are USR_16 and USR_19. The
difference in the two types is in the number of their subscriber boards.
The connection between the RSA main frame and the RSA sub frame is shown in

E.10 Requirements for Power Supply
E.10.1 Requirements for AC Power Supply
I. Generic requirements on AC power supply
Adopt the centralized AC power supply model of mains, uninterrupted power supply
(UPS), and a reserved diesel generator.
Ensure simplicity in cable connection, security in operation, flexibility in scheduling,

and convenience in maintenance.
Adopt three-phase and five-wire, or monophase three-wire AC power for low-voltage

power supply system.
Table E-7 lists the nominal voltage and rated frequency of low-voltage power supply
system.
Table E-7 Specifications of AC voltage and frequency
Nominal voltage Rate frequency

110/127//220/380 V 50 Hz
Adopt UPS for the backup AC power supply. Keep it the same phase with mains.
Set the switching time between mains and UPS less than 10 ms; otherwise, the
product will reboot or reset itself.
Ensure that the equipment runs well below nominal current; never in the threshold of
failure.
Use a separate AC power supply protection unit for a piece of separate equipment.
The current to trigger the protection should be greater than the
When designing the DC power supply system, consider the maximum static and
dynamic load of the system. Always keep sufficient room for the two thresholds.
Choose the model of the power cables by the maximum load of power supply.
The diesel generator set of the office automatically functions in case of power failure,
automatically supply when the mains is insufficient, and automatically stops
functioning when power restores. It can be tested and controlled remotely in
standard interface and communication protocols.
II. Power supply specifications of AC-powered equipment
Here are the power supply specifications of AC-powered equipment:
E-9
z Voltage fluctuation of communications equipment: –10% – +5% of rated

voltage.
z Voltage fluctuation of power supply equipment and important buildings:–15% –
+10% of rated voltage.
z Frequency fluctuation:–4% – +4%.
z Aberration rate of voltage sine wave: ≤5%.
III. Specifications of power cables
Here are the specifications of the power cables:

z Use the neutral line of the same cross-sectional area as the live line.
z Select the DC power feeder on long-term load.
z Use fire-resistant AC cables.
Suggestions on AC power supply are as fllows:
When the voltage of mains power supply is not stable, use the voltage regulator in
any of the following conditions:
z Powered by mains, the voltage fluctuation of communications equipment
exceeds the rated threshold (–10% – +5% of rated voltage).
z Powered by mains, the voltage exceeds the rated voltage fluctuation of
communications equipment.
z Not directly powered by mains, the voltage fluctuation exceeds the rated
threshold (–15% – +10% of rated voltage).
z The voltage exceeds the rated AC voltage fluctuation of DC power supply
equipment.
z Use UPS or inverter to prevent interruption or surge of power supply.
z Use a diesel generator set when the mains is faulty. The capacity of the
generator set should 1.5 to 2 times of the capacity of UPS.
z Use two groups of storage batteries in parallel.
z Use one group of UPS storage batteries. The batteries can be working in
parallel or serial connection.
z Use main inverter based on the maximum power. Keep a backup one.
E.10.2 Requirements for DC Power Supply
Ensure stable power supply. Close the power supply equipment to the
communications equipment to minimize the feeder line. The voltage level between
battery and the equipment should be less than 3.2 V.
When there are more than two switching systems, use two or multiple independent
power supply systems.
Set up multiple independent power supply systems for important communication

centers, each of which powers a separate equipment room. For ordinary offices,
E-10
adopt the model of a centralized power supply room plus a battery room. For
small-capacity offices, adopt the centralized power supply model. Always prevent
the boards from the erosive chemicals given out from batteries.
Table E-8 specifies the requirements on DC power supply.
Table E-8 DC power supply specifications
Item Specifications
Voltage fluctuation of –40V–57V
–48-V input end
Anti-surge current Should be 1.5 times greater than the rated load current
capability capability.
Voltage stability When the AC input voltage range is from 85% to 110%
of the rated value, and the load current is from 5% to
100% of the rated value, the output voltage of the current
stabilizer is an integral value between –56.4 and –46.0V.

voltage
Dynamic response The recovery time is less than 200 ms. The exceeding
amount should not be more or less than 5% of the rated
DC output voltage.
Suggestions on DC power supply are as follows:

z Use the distributed power supply model. Scatter the power supply systems to
multiple sites.
z Adopt standard DC power supply system. The output voltage of the power
supply equipment should meet the requirement of the communications
equipment.
z Enhance the reliability of the power supply system. Optimize the capacity of the
storage batteries. In small-capacity offices, when it is difficult to maintain the
reliability of the power supply system, expand the capacity of the storage
batteries.
z The total configuration of high-frequency switch rectifier should meet the load
power of communication and the recharging power of the storage batteries.
Adopt the redundant configuration model for the rectifier module. Use a
standby rectifier for less than ten active ones; and add one rectifier for every
additional ten active ones.
E-11
z Equip the storage batteries in two or multiple groups. The total capacity is
determined by the power feeding duration. Ensure at least one hour of power
supply capability for the storage battery group.
