1. Use a hammer drill with a Φ16 drill bit to drill holes with a depth ranging
from 55 mm (2.17 in.) to 60 mm (2.36 in.).
2. Use a vacuum cleaner to wipe away any dust in and around the holes and
measure the spacing between holes. If any of the holes is beyond the
acceptable range, mark a new anchor point and drill a new hole.
3. Use a rubber mallet to pound each expansion bolt until the corresponding
expansion tube completely enters the hole.
4. Tighten an expansion bolt to 20 N·m (177 lbf·in.).
5. Remove the M12x60 bolt, spring washer, and flat washer in sequence by
turning them counterclockwise.

1.13.1.2 Installing Boards in a BBU5900


This section describes the procedure and precautions for installing boards in a
BBU5900 and installing surge protection boards.

Context
The boards in the BBU to be installed include main control boards (UMPT), half-
width baseband processing units (UBBP), full-width baseband processing units
(UBBPfw1), and power boards (UPEU). The boards to be installed onsite depend
on the configuration requirements of a base station. The following part uses the
procedure for installing a UMPT as an example. The procedures for installing a
UMPT and a UBBP in the BBU are the same.

Operation Rules
● When moving a board, hold the board with both hands, as shown by the
correct operation in the following figure.

Figure 1-71 Incorrect and correct operations when moving a board

● When installing a board, hold the ejector lever side of the board with one
hand and hold another side of the board with the other hand to ensure that
the board is moving in the correct direction. Do not hold the board with only
one hand and never apply lateral forces to the board. The following figure
shows incorrect and correct operations of installing a board.

Figure 1-72 Incorrect and correct operations when installing a board (1)

● When installing a board, ensure that your hands are level so that the board
and the guide rails are on the same level. Do not apply lateral forces to the
board. Otherwise, the board will be distorted. The following figure shows
incorrect and correct operations of installing a board.

Figure 1-73 Incorrect and correct operations when installing a board (2)

NOTICE

● Handle the board with care and avoid collision. Do not pile or compress boards
after they are unpacked.
● When inserting a board into a subrack, prevent it from colliding with the
subrack and push it into the subrack until it snaps into place.

1.14 Installing Cables


This section describes external cables and cables for mandatory components.

1.14.1 Cabling Requirements


Cables must be routed according to specified cabling requirements to prevent
signal interference.

Issue 01 (2020-01-20) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 162


TMC11H (Ver.D)
Installation Guide 1 TMC11H (Ver.D) Installation Guide

NOTE

If a cable listed below is not required, skip the cabling requirements of the cable.

General Cabling Requirements


Bending radius requirements
● The bending radius of a 7/8'' feeder must be greater than 250 mm (9.84 in.),
and the bending radius of a 5/4'' feeder must be greater than 380 mm (14.96
in.).
● The bending radius of a 1/4'' jumper must be greater than 35 mm (1.38 in.).
The bending radius of a super-flexible 1/2'' jumper must be greater than 50
mm (1.97 in.), and the bending radius of an ordinary 1/2'' jumper must be
greater than 127 mm (5 in.).
● The bending radius of a power cable or PGND cable must be at least three
times the cable diameter.
● The bending radius of an optical fiber is at least 20 times its diameter, and the
bending radius of a breakout cable is at least 30 mm (1.18 in.).
● The bending radius of an E1/T1 cable must be at least three times its
diameter.
● The bending radius of a signal cable must be at least five times its diameter.

Cable binding requirements


● Cables must be bound before being routed out of the equipment.
● Cables of the same type must be bound together.
● Different types of cables must be separately routed and bound.
● The cables must be bound tightly and neatly. The sheaths of the cables must
not be damaged.
● The cable ties must face the same direction, and those at the same horizontal
line must be in a straight line.
● The excess of the indoor cable ties needs to be cut off. A 5 mm (0.20 in.)
excess needs to be reserved for each outdoor cable tie, without any sharp
edges.
● After cables are installed, labels or nameplates must be attached to the cables
at their ends, curves, and interconnection positions.

Security requirements
● When routing cables, avoid sharp objects or sharp edges on the wall. If
necessary, use tubes to protect the cables.
● When routing cables, keep the cables away from heat sources and use heat
insulation materials to insulate the cables from the heat sources.
● Reserve a proper distance (0.1 m or 0.33 ft is recommended) between
equipment and cables, especially at the cable curves to protect the cables and
equipment.

Indoor cabling requirements


● Cables are routed indoors through the feeder window.

Issue 01 (2020-01-20) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 163


TMC11H (Ver.D)
Installation Guide 1 TMC11H (Ver.D) Installation Guide

● Reserve drip loops for all cables outside the feeder window before routing
them into the room. Ensure that the radiuses of the drip loops are greater
than or equal to the minimum bending radiuses of the cables.
● When routing a cable into the room, ensure that a person is assisting you in
the room.
● Apply waterproof treatment to the feeder window.

Outdoor Cabling Requirements


● After being connected to a ground clip on power cables, a ground cable must
be routed downwards to prevent water from entering the equipment to which
the power cables connect.
● Protect outdoor cables against potential damage. For example, put the cables
through tubes.
● The cables to be protected include AC power cables, transmission cables, and
cables routed underground.
● When routing cables through tubes on the ground below the cabinet, put a
30 mm to 50 mm (1.18 in. to 1.97 in.) length of the tubes into the base of the
cabinet but do not put the tubes into the cabinet. Use waterproof tape or
waterproof silicon gel to block both ends of the tubes and use sheet metal
tabs to secure the tubes to the cable holes in the base.
● When routing cables through tubes along a metal cable trough below the
cabinet, do not put the tubes into the base of the cabinet but cover the cable
trough and connect the tubes to the cable holes in the base.
● When routing RRU/AAU cables, ensure that the highest positions of the routes
of all cables (except RF cables and AISG cables) are lower than the bottom of
the module. This prevents water from entering the maintenance cavity of the
module along the cables.
● Use clips to secure cables outdoors. For the method of installing a clip, see the
installation guide delivered with the clip.
● Arrange cables neatly along the routing direction and use clips to secure the
cables.
● Determine the positions where the clips are installed according to the actual
situation. For example, 7/8" feeders are secured with clips at an interval of 1.5
m to 2 m (4.92 ft to 6.56 ft), CPRI/Ir optical fibers and power cables are
secured with clips at an interval of 1 m to 1.5 m (3.28 ft to 4.92 ft). Ensure
that the clips are evenly spaced and face the same direction.
● When fastening cables with a clip, ensure that the cables are aligned neatly
and are routed through the holes in the clip. Do not stretch the cables too
tightly.
● Cable ties are used to assist in binding cables. One cable tie can bind a
maximum of two cables.
There are two types of clips which are described as follows:
● A 3-hole clip is shown by illustration a in the following figure. It is often used
to fasten feeders.
● A 6-hole clip is shown by illustration b in the following figure. It is often used
to fasten power cables and CPRI/Ir optical fibers.
– If the RRU/AAU power cable has round core wires with the cross-sectional
area of 12 AWG/4 mm2 (0.006 in.2)/10 AWG, or the power cable has

Special Cabling Requirements


Cabling of power cables
● Power cables must be installed in the position specified in engineering design
documents.
● If the length of a cable cannot meet the requirement, replace the cable rather
than adding connectors or soldering joints to lengthen the cables.
● Cables can only be routed under well-planned instructions. The cabling
activities are allowed only when qualified personnel and communication
facilities are available.
● Do not circle or twist cables.

Issue 01 (2020-01-20) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 167


TMC11H (Ver.D)
Installation Guide 1 TMC11H (Ver.D) Installation Guide

● After routing a DC power cable onto the platform on a tower, route it along
the shortest path to the rails surrounding the platform, and route it along the
inside of the rails.
● After routing a DC power cable close to the equipment on a tower, use clips
to secure the power cable onto a pole or the rails surrounding the platform.
Ensure the position where the power cable is secured is less than 1.5 m (4.92
ft) away from the equipment to which the power cable connects.
Cabling of PGND cables
● PGND cables for a base station must be connected to the same group of
ground bars.
● PGND cables cannot be routed overhead outdoors. All PGND cables must be
buried in the ground or laid out indoors.
● The external conductor of the coaxial wire and the shield layer of the shielded
cable must have proper electrical contact with the metal surface of the
equipment to which they are connected.
● PGND cables and signal cables must be installed with a certain distance
reserved between them to prevent interference from each other.
● Switches or fuses must not be installed on the PGND cables.
● Other devices must not be used for electrical connections of the PGND cables.
● All the metal parts in the housing of the equipment must be reliably
connected to the ground terminal.
Cabling of E1 cables
● E1 cables cannot be crossed with power cables, PGND cables, or RF cables
when being laid out. If transmission cables are routed with power cables,
PGND cables, or RF cables in parallel, the spacing between them must be
greater than 30 mm (1.18 in.).
● E1 cables are routed straightly and bound neatly with cable ties.
● Sufficient slack is provided in E1 cables at turns.
● E1 cables cannot be pressed by the cabinet door when routed through the
cabinet. The following figure shows both correct and incorrect ways of routing
the cables.

Installation Guide 1 TMC11H (Ver.D) Installation Guide

Cabling of optical fibers


● At least three persons are required for routing optical fibers. The cabling
activities of optical fibers are allowed only when qualified personnel and
communication facilities are available.
● The operating temperature of optical fibers ranges from -40°C to +60°C (-40°F
to +140°F). If the actual temperature is beyond this range, take protective
measures or select another route.
● Do not circle or twist cables.
● Do not bind optical fibers at the position where they bend.
● Do not stretch, step on, or place heavy objects on optical fibers. Keep the
optical fibers away from sharp objects.
● When optical fibers are routed, the excess of the optical fibers must be coiled
around special equipment, such as a fiber coiler.
● An optical jumper must be bound using binding straps. If an optical fiber
needs to be secured in a cabinet or a piece of equipment, use binding straps
to bind it and then use cable ties to secure the binding straps to the cabinet
or equipment. Ensure that the optical fibers can flexibly move in the cable
ties. Right angle bending is not allowed. The following figure shows the
correct and incorrect manners of binding optical fibers.

Figure 1-158 Binding optical fibers

● When coiling optical fibers, apply even strength. Do not bend the optical
fibers with force.
● Unused optical connectors must be covered with dustproof caps.
● The optical fibers must not be pressed by the door of the cabinet when
routed, as shown in the following figures.

● After routing an optical fiber near the equipment on a tower, use clips to
secure the optical fiber onto a pole or the rails surrounding the platform.
Ensure that the distance between the equipment and the position where the
optical fiber is secured is not too long.
● Coil the excess of the optical fibers near the equipment on the tower before
securing the cables onto the tower.

● CPRI optical fibers must be correctly connected in one time during the
installation. Otherwise, the RRU may malfunction, and cells may become
unusable.

NOTICE

Optical modules to be installed must match the rates of their corresponding ports.
For example, the FE1 port (optical transmission port) on a GTMU/GTMUb/GTMUc
supports only the 100 Mbit/s transmission rate and therefore can only use an
optical module that supports hundreds of megabits per second. In this scenario, an
optical module that supports thousands of megabits per second may cause the
transmission link to be disconnected.

Procedure
Step 1 Install an optical module into the FE/GE, FE, SFP, or XGE port on the main control
board or transmission board, as shown in Figure 1-223 and Figure 1-224.
1. Remove the dustproof cap from the corresponding optical port on the
corresponding board in the BBU.

NOTICE

After removing dustproof caps from the optical module and optical fiber
connector, insert the optical fiber into the optical module immediately (within
one minute) to avoid pollution of the optical module or optical fiber
connector, which may cause an optical module alarm.

2. Remove the dustproof cap from the optical module.


3. Lower the puller of the optical module.
4. Insert the optical module into the optical port.

● Before the power-on operation, check that all power cables are correctly
connected. Any reverse power cable connection or short circuit of the positive
and negative poles may cause damage to equipment or unexpected injuries of
human body.
● Exercise caution when performing a power-on check, which involves high
voltage operations. Direct contact with the input voltage or indirect contact
with the input voltage using a damp object may be fatal.

go to step b.
2. Use a multimeter to measure the input power to the
component.
– If the input power is normal, replace the
component.
– If the input power is abnormal, check whether the
power cable for the component is securely
connected. If the power cable is not connected
securely, turn off the circuit breaker for the
component (if there is no circuit breaker for the
component, remove the connector on the power
cable) and reconnect the power cable. If the
power cable is connected securely, the circuit
breaker or fuse for the component may be faulty.
