The unit has to be mounted
vertically, fans in top position.
To ensure sufficient airflow a
distance between wall and
remote unit of at least 50mm has to
be kept for each cabinet side. If this
minimal distance of 50mm is reached
at two of the cabinet sides, a
distance of at least 200mm has to be
observed for the remaining two
sides. At top and bottom a minimal
distance of 50mm has to be kept, as
well.
The unit may also be mounted on
poles. Suitable pole mounting kits
are available.

Proper fibre installation is essential for reliable operation of the
whole system.
Clean fibres in case optical performance gets worse.
Clean fibres only according to Andrew recommended cleaning
procedure.
Always disconnect units during splicing process, otherwise optical
components may be damaged.
The MMR-system is a WDM system. Optical loss in DL and UL
might vary due to different optical wavelengths
OTDR measurements have to be performed with both optical
wavelenghts (1310 and 1550 nm) and in both directions

Behind each optical transceiver the UL & DL band ports required for levelling the individual
bands are located. Thus, the transceiver has to be removed for the levelling procedure.
In case of multi-band / single-user systems, instead of combiners the subrack is equipped
with BTS-connect units providing either one BTS connector for levelling or two separate
connectors, one each for UL and DL.
Aug.2008 38

For single-band or single-user systems a stand-alone subrack equipped with three OTRX
plus BTS-connect units, and one power supply unit (PSU) is available. This subrack type
provides additional space for a control unit to be upgraded as mini master unit .
For single-band applications such a subrack is equipped with one combiner or
BTS-connect unit per OTRX.
For single-user setup this subrack can be equipped with the BTS-connect 3:3
(one input per band) or the standard BTS-connect

The power supply section comprises the power supply units as well as the AC primary
switches for the unit and the DC switches, by which the subracks can be switched on or off
individually.
The system operates on the n+1 redundancy principle, i.e. one (redundant) power supply can
be equipped to take over in case of failure of another power supply unit. The power supply
units are designed for a hot-plug system, thus it is possible to exchange

In small MMR optical distribution systems the MMR mini master can be used instead of
installing a fully equipped master unit with a sophisticated controller. This mini master can
contain up to 3 optical interfaces. It is implemented in a 3 HU 19 Rack. The operation and

System A|ormboord [SA8}
The optional system alarmboard is always
located in the 1st rack of a master unit, in the
optical and combining section.
The alarmboard provides eight alarm inputs,
eight alarm outputs, as well as a summary alarm
output (generally one closed and one open).
The board also provides a green (operation)
LED.
Whenever there is a failure triggering an alarm
occurring somewhere in the system,
a summary alarm is raised and can be retrieved
e.g. by establishing a connection between a
summary alarm relay and the alarm input of the
BTS.

Optionally, the master unit can be equipped with
the GSM modem MC35. In that case the BTS
cable(s) must be connected at the corresponding
modem connector(s).
The location of the modem depends on the
customer configuration. The first modem may
also be located in the RMC-600.

Hard wired installation of mains supply for the unit requires an easily accessible
separation device in the mains circuit.
Make sure that an appropriate circuit breaker and an overcurrent limiting device are
connected between mains and unit.
A connection of mains supply to a power socket requires the power socket to be

In order to switch on the unit, switch the AC primary switches (one for
each power supply) to position ON.
The power supply units are counted from left to right (1-8). Also, switch
the DC switches of all equipped subracks to position ON.
A mini master unit operates without an ON/OFF switch, thus for power

To commission the system, the optical transceivers must be removed for levelling. Before,
the DC switch of the corresponding subrack must be switched to position Off.
To remove the transceiver, loosen the four captive screws by which each transceiver is
fastened to the subrack. Use the grip to pull the transceiver out.
For levelling, plug in the levelling adapter* that is part of the delivery at the position of the
transceiver and fasten it with the two captive screws. Connect a spectrum analyzer to the
band connectors of the adapter. The adapter connectors are SMA female, thus the
spectrum analyzer requires SMA male.
* If no levelling adapter is available, connect a spectrum analyzer to the DL band ports at the
back of the subrack. The band ports are SMS male connectors, thus the spectrum analyzer
requires SMS female. Connect the base stations one after the other at the port connectors
(P1-P4, corresponding to their software addresses) of the respective band combiner** or,
depending on the individual customer configuration, at the connectors of the BTS-connects,
splitters or modem and adjust the DL level by means of the corresponding stepless
attenuators*** until the required level is reached.

Comm|ss|on|ng the MMk
The varying optical loss on fibres between MU and MMR is equalised by
meaning of an auto-levelling function. This will guarantee always the
same gain on the DL/UL path from Remote antenna connector to
Master OTRX.
This function is included in the system control software. This makes
sure that, even if due to dirt etc., the optical loss increase the system
performance is kept.
The further system setup is done with this auto-levelling function.
The autolevelling will be described in the software training.

In order to guarantee required system performance, the
gain in UL/DL is unbalanced. (UL gain is higher than DL
gain) The BTS settings have to be performed in a way as if
working with TMA.
If this is not wanted, a fixed attenuator may be fitted in the
UL path inside the MU, or the auto-levelling may be
switched off and attenuations are set manually.

Due to auto-levelling the gain is kept constant, no matter about
optical attenuation on the fibre link MU - RU (max. 10 dB opt.)
For Rel. 2, Rev 2 systems in following the DL gain is given:
Optimisation IICP NF
GSM 900 MHz 21,5 dB 28,5 dB
GSM 1800 MHz 26,5 dB 33,5 dB
UMTS 23,5 dB 28,5 dB
UL gain is given before, dependent on optimisation

Alarms generated in the RU are
forwarded through the fibre to the
MU.
Fibre failures are monitorred by the
MU and the RU
Processing for all alarms are done
in the MU (RMC)
Alarms and status information may
be forwarded by modem to the
OMC or via the alarm board to the
BTS / Node B
